| Summary: | Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex and chronic condition that requires the use of various pharmacological agents for its management. Despite advancements in IBD research, the multifaceted mechanisms involved continue to pose significant challenges for strategic prevention. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize safe and effective treatment strategies using the currently available pharmacological agents. Given that patients with IBD often require multiple medications due to combination therapy or other underlying conditions, a comprehensive understanding of drug interactions is essential for optimizing treatment regimens. In this review, we examined the pharmacological treatment options recommended in the current IBD management guidelines and provided a comprehensive analysis of the known pharmacokinetic interactions associated with these medications. In particular, this review includes recent research results for the impact of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) on the concentrations of biological agents used in IBD treatment. By leveraging detailed interaction data and employing personalized dosing strategies, healthcare providers can improve therapeutic outcomes and minimize adverse effects, ultimately improving the quality of care for patients with IBD. |
