Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

multivitamin, prenatal elvitegravir

Applies to: Mynatal PN (multivitamin, prenatal) and elvitegravir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The concomitant use of antacids or oral products containing polyvalent cations (e.g., Mg, Al, Ca, Fe, Zn) may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of elvitegravir. According to the elvitegravir manufacturer, the mechanism of the interaction may be related to local complexation in the gastrointestinal tract and not to changes in gastric pH. When 20 mL of an antacid containing magnesium and aluminum was given 2 hours before a 50 mg dose of elvitegravir with ritonavir (100 mg pharmacokinetic booster dose) to 11 study subjects, mean elvitegravir peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (Cmin) were reduced by 18%, 15%, and 10%, respectively. When the antacid was given 2 hours after elvitegravir to 10 study subjects, the mean elvitegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin decreased by approximately 20% each. When the antacid was given simultaneously with elvitegravir to 13 study subjects, the mean elvitegravir Cmax, AUC, and Cmin decreased by approximately 47%, 45%, and 41%, respectively. In contrast, when the antacid was given 4 hours before or 4 hours after elvitegravir, no significant differences were observed in elvitegravir pharmacokinetics compared to the administration of elvitegravir alone. The interaction has not been studied with other polyvalent cation-containing products, but they are expected to decrease elvitegravir plasma concentrations as well.

MANAGEMENT: Antacid and oral products containing polyvalent cations should be administered at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after the elvitegravir dose. Some experts recommend an interval of at least 4 hours. Alternatively, H2-receptor antagonists or proton pump inhibitors may be considered instead of antacids, with no dosage adjustment needed.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

multivitamin, prenatal food

Applies to: Mynatal PN (multivitamin, prenatal)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Concomitant use of some oral medications may reduce the bioavailability of orally administered iron, and vice versa.

Food taken in conjunction with oral iron supplements may reduce the bioavailability of the iron. However, in many patients intolerable gastrointestinal side effects occur necessitating administration with food.

MANAGEMENT: Ideally, iron products should be taken on an empty stomach (i.e., at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals), but if this is not possible, administer with meals and monitor the patient more closely for a subtherapeutic effect. Some studies suggest administration of iron with ascorbic acid may enhance bioavailability. In addition, administration of oral iron products and some oral medications should be separated whenever the bioavailability of either agent may be decreased. Consult the product labeling for specific separation times and monitor clinical responses as appropriate.

elvitegravir food

Applies to: elvitegravir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailabilities of both elvitegravir and tenofovir. When a single dose of cobicistat/elvitegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir (trade name Stribild) was given with a light meal (approximately 373 kcal; 20% fat), mean elvitegravir and tenofovir systemic exposures (AUCs) increased by 34% and 24%, respectively, relative to fasting conditions. When administered with a high-fat meal (approximately 800 kcal; 50% fat), the mean AUC of elvitegravir and tenofovir increased by 87% and 23%, respectively, relative to fasting conditions. The alterations in mean AUCs of cobicistat and emtricitabine were not clinically significant with either the light or high-fat meal.

MANAGEMENT: Cobicistat/elvitegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir as a fixed-dose preparation should be administered once daily with food. Elvitegravir as a single-ingredient preparation should also be administered once daily with food.

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.
