Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

trimethoprim daprodustat

Applies to: trimethoprim and daprodustat

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C8 may increase the plasma concentrations and the risk of adverse effects associated with daprodustat, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When gemfibrozil (600 mg twice daily for 5 days), a potent CYP450 2C8 inhibitor, was administered with a single daprodustat dose of 100 mg on day 4 of gemfibrozil administration, daprodustat peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 3.9-fold and 18.6-fold, respectively. In addition, daprodustat Cmax and AUC are predicted to increase by at least 3-fold and 4-fold, respectively, following concomitant administration with clopidogrel 75 mg once daily (a moderate CYP450 2C8 inhibitor). When trimethoprim (200 mg twice daily for 5 days), a weak CYP450 2C8 inhibitor, was coadministered with a single daprodustat dose of 25 mg on day 4 of trimethoprim administration, daprodustat Cmax and AUC increased by 1.3-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended when daprodustat is coadministered with CYP450 2C8 inhibitors. Monitoring of hemoglobin levels and adjusting the dose of daprodustat may be considered following initiation or discontinuation of treatment with CYP450 2C8 inhibitors.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

daprodustat food

Applies to: daprodustat

MONITOR: Smoking and alcohol consumption during therapy with daprodustat may increase the risk of gastric or esophageal erosions. Serious erosions, including gastrointestinal bleeding and the need for red blood cell transfusions, have been reported during daprodustat clinical trials. Patients with a history of gastrointestinal erosion, peptic ulcer disease, and current tobacco smokers and alcohol drinkers may be at higher risk of gastrointestinal injury.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if daprodustat is prescribed to current tobacco smokers or alcohol drinkers. Patients should be advised to contact their physician if they develop potential signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal injury such as abdominal pain, hematemesis, trouble swallowing, chest or throat pain, and/or black, tarry stools.

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.
