Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

acetylcholine ophthalmic lumateperone

Applies to: Miochol-E System Pak (acetylcholine ophthalmic) and lumateperone

MONITOR: Theoretically, anticholinergic agents and other agents with significant anticholinergic activity (e.g., antihistamines, antispasmodics, neuroleptics, phenothiazines, skeletal muscle relaxants, tricyclic antidepressants, class IA antiarrhythmics especially disopyramide) may antagonize the effects of topically administered cholinergic agents such as acetylcholine, carbachol, demecarium, echothiophate, isoflurophate, physostigmine, and pilocarpine. The proposed mechanism involves opposing pharmacodynamic action on muscarinic receptor sites in ocular tissue. This interaction is sometimes desirable and is the basis for using atropine in the treatment of excessive muscarinic side effects and cholinergic crisis induced by cholinergic overdose.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving long-term therapy with anticholinergic agents should be monitored for potentially diminished therapeutic (miotic) response to ophthalmic cholinergic therapy, and dosages adjusted as necessary.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

lumateperone food

Applies to: lumateperone

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of lumateperone. 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 but has been reported for other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. In a drug interaction study, the strong CYP450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole increased lumateperone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) approximately 3.5- and 4-fold, respectively, while diltiazem (a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor) increased lumateperone Cmax and AUC approximately 2- and 2.5-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.

When administered with a high-fat meal, lumateperone Cmax decreased by 33% while its AUC increased by 9% and its median time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) was delayed by about 1 hour.

MANAGEMENT: Lumateperone should be administered with food. Coadministration of grapefruit or grapefruit juice with lumateperone should be avoided.

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.
