Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

aldesleukin vilazodone

Applies to: aldesleukin and vilazodone

MONITOR: Sedatives, tranquilizers, muscle relaxants, antidepressants, and other central nervous system (CNS) depressants may have additive CNS-depressant effects with aldesleukin. Aldesleukin has been associated with CNS effects including depression, confusion, and drowsiness, which may progress to coma.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if aldesleukin is used with sedatives, hypnotics, tranquilizers, or other CNS-active medications. Patients should be monitored for CNS depression and other CNS adverse effects. Treatment with aldesleukin should be discontinued if severe lethargy or somnolence develop.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

vilazodone food

Applies to: vilazodone

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of vilazodone. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of vilazodone. According to the product labeling, vilazodone blood concentrations in the fasted state can be decreased by approximately 50% compared to the fed state, which may result in diminished effectiveness in some patients. The absolute bioavailability of vilazodone is 72% with food. In study subjects, administration with food (high-fat or light meal) increased vilazodone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by approximately 147% to 160% and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 64% to 85%.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving vilazodone should be advised to avoid consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how vilazodone affects them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities. Vilazodone should be taken with food. Administration without food may result in inadequate drug concentrations and diminished effectiveness.

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.
