Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

loratadine ritonavir

Applies to: Bactimicina Allergy (loratadine) and emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir

MONITOR: Coadministration with ritonavir may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 2D6 isoenzyme. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to competitive inhibition of CYP450 2D6 activity by ritonavir. The systemic exposure (AUC) of some coadministered drugs has been reported to increase by up to twofold.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if ritonavir must be used concurrently with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2D6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ritonavir is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

ritonavir tenofovir

Applies to: emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir and emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir

MONITOR: Coadministration with ritonavir, with or without lopinavir, has been suggested in postmarketing reports to increase the proximal tubular intracellular concentrations of tenofovir and potentiate the risk of tenofovir-induced nephrotoxicity. The proposed mechanism is ritonavir inhibition of tenofovir renal tubular secretion into the urine via multidrug resistance protein MRP2. Analysis of data from a compassionate access study in which 271 patients with advanced HIV disease received the combination for a mean duration of 63 weeks revealed no clinically significant nephrotoxicity associated with coadministration. However, there have been case reports of renal failure associated with acute tubular necrosis, Fanconi's syndrome, and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in patients treated with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in combination with ritonavir. Some patients had incomplete recovery of renal function more than a year after cessation of tenofovir therapy. Ritonavir given in combination with lopinavir has also been reported to modestly increase the plasma concentrations of tenofovir. In contrast, both slight decreases and no change in lopinavir and ritonavir concentrations have been reported.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is prescribed with ritonavir. Renal function should be monitored regularly, including surveillance for signs of tubulopathy such as glycosuria, acidosis, increases in serum creatinine level, electrolyte disturbances (e.g., hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia), and proteinuria. The same precaution may be applicable during therapy with other protease inhibitors based on their similar pharmacokinetic profile, although clinical data are lacking. Nelfinavir reportedly does not alter the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir, or vice versa. Tenofovir administration should be discontinued promptly if nephropathy develops.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may modestly affect the bioavailability of ritonavir from the various available formulations. When the oral solution was given under nonfasting conditions, peak ritonavir concentrations decreased 23% and the extent of absorption decreased 7% relative to fasting conditions. Dilution of the oral solution (within one hour of dosing) with 240 mL of chocolate milk or a nutritional supplement (Advera or Ensure) did not significantly affect the extent and rate of ritonavir absorption. When a single 100 mg dose of the tablet was administered with a high-fat meal (907 kcal; 52% fat, 15% protein, 33% carbohydrates), approximately 20% decreases in mean peak concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were observed relative to administration after fasting. Similar decreases in Cmax and AUC were reported when the tablet was administered with a moderate-fat meal. In contrast, the extent of absorption of ritonavir from the soft gelatin capsule formulation was 13% higher when administered with a meal (615 KCal; 14.5% fat, 9% protein, and 76% carbohydrate) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ritonavir should be taken with meals to enhance gastrointestinal tolerability.

lopinavir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly increases the bioavailability of lopinavir from the oral solution formulation of lopinavir-ritonavir. Relative to fasting, administration of lopinavir-ritonavir oral solution with a moderate-fat meal (500 to 682 Kcal; 23% to 25% calories from fat) increased lopinavir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 54% and 80%, respectively, whereas administration with a high-fat meal (872 Kcal; 56% from fat) increased lopinavir Cmax and AUC by 56% and 130%, respectively. No clinically significant changes in Cmax and AUC were observed following administration of lopinavir-ritonavir tablets under fed conditions versus fasted conditions. Relative to fasting, administration of a single 400 mg-100 mg dose (two 200 mg-50 mg tablets) with a moderate-fat meal (558 Kcal; 24.1% calories from fat) increased lopinavir Cmax and AUC by 17.6% and 26.9%, respectively, while administration with a high-fat meal (998 Kcal; 51.3% from fat) increased lopinavir AUC by 18.9% but not Cmax. Relative to fasting, ritonavir Cmax and AUC also increased by 4.9% and 14.9%, respectively, with the moderate-fat meal and 10.3% and 23.9%, respectively, with the high-fat meal.

MANAGEMENT: Lopinavir-ritonavir oral solution should be taken with meals to enhance bioavailability and minimize pharmacokinetic variability. Lopinavir-ritonavir tablets may be taken without regard to meals.

loratadine food

Applies to: Bactimicina Allergy (loratadine)

Theoretically, grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of loratadine as it does other drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 enzymatic pathway. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. The clinical significance of this potential interaction is unknown. Reported interactions with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors like clarithromycin, erythromycin and ketoconazole have produced substantial increases in the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of loratadine and its active metabolite, descarboethoxyloratadine, without associated changes in the overall safety profile of the drug.

tenofovir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / lopinavir / ritonavir / tenofovir

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
