When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of griseofulvin is contraindicated in patients with hepatocellular failure, as animal data has shown that this drug may cause hepatocellular necrosis. The use of griseofulvin has not been adequately studied in patients with liver disease, although it is known that griseofulvin is primarily metabolized by the liver. Therapy with griseofulvin should be administered very cautiously in patients with liver impairment, and the dosing adjusted or discontinued according to clinical response.
