ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration with moderate inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of capivasertib, which is a substrate of the isoenzyme. Based on clinical studies and model-informed approaches, concomitant use with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors erythromycin and verapamil is predicted to increase capivasertib systemic exposure (AUC) by up to 1.5-fold and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by up to 1.3-fold. Increased exposure to capivasertib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as diarrhea, cutaneous adverse reactions, decreased lymphocytes, decreased hemoglobin, hyperglycemia, nausea, and fatigue.

MANAGEMENT: When concomitant use with a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is required, the prescribing information recommends reducing the dosage of capivasertib to 320 mg orally twice daily for 4 days followed by 3 days off. Following discontinuation of the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, the capivasertib dosage should be returned (after 3 to 5 half-lives of the inhibitor) to the dosage that was used before starting the inhibitor. Monitoring patients for adverse reactions is also advised.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of capivasertib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. 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 studied with other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Based on clinical studies and model-informed approaches, concomitant use with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole is predicted to increase capivasertib systemic exposure (AUC) by up to 1.7-fold and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by up to 1.4-fold. Coadministration with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors erythromycin and verapamil is predicted to increase the AUC and Cmax of capivasertib by up to 1.5-fold 1.3-fold, respectively. 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 capivasertib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as diarrhea, cutaneous adverse reactions, decreased lymphocytes, decreased hemoglobin, hyperglycemia, nausea, and fatigue.

MANAGEMENT: It may be advisable for patients to avoid the consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or supplements that contain grapefruit during treatment with capivasertib.

darunavir food

Applies to: darunavir

Food can enhance the levels of darunavir in your body. Take darunavir with food. The type of food does not matter. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Swallow the whole tablets with a drink such as water or milk. Do not chew the tablets. Darunavir must be always be taken together at the same time as another medication called ritonavir (Norvir).

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.
