Example of the drug interaction between ciclosporin and orlistat, resulting in relapse of Evan's syndrome

A man aged 35 years with a history of Evan's syndrome presented to the clinic with jaundice and shortness of breath, with further testing indicating a relapse of his previously well-controlled condition, for which he was taking ciclosporin. This followed shortly after he had started taking orlistat to prevent weight gain from a course of steroids, and once the orlistat was stopped, his platelets began to rise. The patient required 4 months of steroid treatment before his platelet levels finally stabilised and he could be put back on his regular medicine regime.
