Interactions between your selected drugs

omeprazole ↔ etravirine

Applies to:omeprazole and Intelence (etravirine)

MONITOR: Coadministration of etravirine with a drug that is both a substrate as well as inhibitor of CYP450 2C19 and/or 2C9 may result in increased plasma concentrations of both drugs. Etravirine itself is also a substrate and inhibitor of CYP450 2C19 and 2C9. Theoretically, metabolism of etravirine and the coadministered drug may be mutually inhibited when used in combination. In 18 study subjects administered etravirine with the CYP450 2C19 inhibitor omeprazole (40 mg once a day), etravirine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 17% and 41%, respectively. The effect of etravirine on omeprazole pharmacokinetics was not reported.

MANAGEMENT: Because safety data regarding increased etravirine exposures are limited, caution is advised if etravirine is prescribed in combination with a CYP450 2C19 or 2C9 inhibitor. In addition, dosage adjustments may be required for the coadministered drug if it is also a substrate of CYP450 2C19 or 2C9.

Drug Interaction Classification

The classifications below are a guideline only. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific patient is difficult to determine using this tool alone given the large number of variables that may apply.

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.
