Interactions between your drugs

Major

ethinyl estradiol abrocitinib

Applies to: Demulen 1 / 35 (ethinyl estradiol / ethynodiol) and abrocitinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors and combined hormonal contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), or estrogen receptor modulators may potentiate the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Serious and sometimes fatal VTE events including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) have been observed in patients taking JAK inhibitors. In a randomized safety study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis with at least one cardiovascular risk factor (e.g., prior VTE, body mass index greater than or equal to 35 kg/m2, older age, history of chronic lung disease), an increased risk for VTE was observed with tofacitinib compared to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. Similarly, in a meta-analysis evaluating 16 randomized controlled trials for the incidence of venous thromboembolism with JAK inhibitor use (including tofacitinib, upadacitinib, filgotinib, and baricitinib), a potential increase in the risk of VTE, although not clinically significant, was observed compared to placebo or TNF inhibitors. Subgroup analyses showed higher VTE events with tofacitinib compared to TNF inhibitors and with higher doses of JAK inhibitors. Data surrounding the use of JAK inhibitors with hormonal contraceptives, HRT and or estrogen receptor modulators are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and close clinical monitoring are advised when JAK inhibitors are administered in patients with an increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE), such as those taking combined hormonal contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and/or estrogen receptor modulators. While not discussed in US product labeling, international labeling for some JAK inhibitors recommends avoiding concomitant use due to their potential to increase the risk of VTE. Other international labeling suggests JAK inhibitors may be administered if necessary, but with additional monitoring. Patients and their caregivers should be advised to seek medical attention if they experience signs and symptoms of VTE. Individual product labeling should be consulted for further guidance.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

abrocitinib food

Applies to: abrocitinib

Abrocitinib may be taken with or without food. Smoking during treatment with abrocitinib may increase your risk of serious cardiovascular events and of developing malignancies. Tell your doctor if you are a current or past smoker. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Get emergency help right away if you develop any symptoms of a heart attack or stroke during treatment with abrocitinib, including severe tightness, pain, pressure, or heaviness in your chest, neck, or jaw; weakness in one side of your body; slurred speech; shortness of breath or feeling lightheaded. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
