This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- avapritinib
- ketorolac ophthalmic
Interactions between your drugs
ketorolac ophthalmic avapritinib
Applies to: ketorolac ophthalmic and avapritinib
MONITOR: Systemically and topically administered nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may potentiate the risk of bleeding in patients treated with anticoagulants and other drugs that affect hemostasis such as platelet inhibitors, thrombin inhibitors, thrombolytic agents, or agents that commonly cause thrombocytopenia. The pharmacologic effects of NSAIDs that contribute to this interaction include prolongation of prothrombin time and inhibition of platelet adhesion and aggregation.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if NSAIDs are used in combination with other drugs that affect hemostasis. Close clinical and laboratory observation for hematologic complications is recommended. Patients should be advised to promptly report any signs of bleeding to their doctor, including pain, swelling, headache, dizziness, weakness, prolonged bleeding from cuts, increased menstrual flow, vaginal bleeding, nosebleeds, bleeding of gums from brushing, unusual bleeding or bruising, red or brown urine, or red or black stools.

Drug and food interactions
avapritinib food
Applies to: avapritinib
GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of avapritinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice, but has been reported for other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Based on pharmacokinetic modeling, administration of avapritinib (300 mg once daily) in combination with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole (200 mg once daily) is predicted to increase avapritinib systemic exposure (AUC) by 600% at steady state, while administration with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor fluconazole (200 mg once daily) is predicted to increase avapritinib systemic exposure (AUC) by 210% at steady state. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to avapritinib may increase the risk and/or severity of serious adverse effects such as intracranial hemorrhage, cognitive impairment, mood disorders, hallucinations, edema, and decreases in hemoglobin, leukocytes, neutrophils, and platelets.
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may increase the oral absorption of avapritinib. When avapritinib was administered with a high-calorie, high-fat meal (approximately 909 calories; 58 g carbohydrate, 56 g fat, 43 g protein), avapritinib Cmax and AUC increased by 59% and 29%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasted state.
MANAGEMENT: Avapritinib should be administered on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with avapritinib.
