Interactions between your drugs

Minor

amoxicillin clarithromycin

Applies to: amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole and amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole

Although some in vitro data indicate synergism between macrolide antibiotics and penicillins, other in vitro data indicate antagonism. When these drugs are given together, neither has predictable therapeutic efficacy. Data are available for erythromycin, although theoretically this interaction could occur with any macrolide. Except for monitoring of the effectiveness of antibiotic therapy, no special precautions appear to be necessary.

Minor

clarithromycin omeprazole

Applies to: amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole and amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole

Clarithromycin may increase and prolong the omeprazole plasma concentration. The mechanism may be related to clarithromycin inhibition of hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes responsible for omeprazole metabolism. Coadministration of omeprazole may result in an increase in clarithromycin and 14-(R)-hydroxyclarithromycin plasma concentrations. These increases may be due to the effect of omeprazole on gastric pH.

Minor

omeprazole abrocitinib

Applies to: amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole and abrocitinib

Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C19 may increase the plasma concentrations of abrocitinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 2C19 (approximately 53%) and 2C9 (30%) and to a lesser extent by CYP450 3A4 (11%) and 2B6 (6%) based on in vitro data. When a 100 mg dose of abrocitinib was coadministered with fluvoxamine, a potent CYP450 2C19 inhibitor and a weak to moderate CYP450 2C9 and 3A4 inhibitor, or fluconazole, a potent CYP450 2C19 inhibitor and a moderate CYP450 2C9 and 3A inhibitor, the sum systemic exposure (AUC) of unbound abrocitinib plus its two active mono-hydroxylated metabolites, M1 (3-hydroxypropyl) and M2 (2-hydroxypropyl), increased by 91% and 155%, respectively. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 2C19 inhibitors; however, clinically significant interactions are not expected.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

abrocitinib food

Applies to: abrocitinib

MONITOR: Smoking during treatment with abrocitinib may increase the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and the risk of developing malignancies. During abrocitinib clinical studies, current or past smokers had an additional increased risk of overall malignancies. Also, abrocitinib may increase patients' risk of MACE, including myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death.

Administration of abrocitinib with high-fat, high-calorie food increased abrocitinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 29% and 26%, respectively, and prolonged the time to reach Cmax by 2 hours. These changes are not considered clinically relevant.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if abrocitinib is prescribed to current or past smokers. Patients should be informed about the symptoms of serious cardiovascular events and the steps to take if they occur. The manufacturer recommends discontinuing abrocitinib in patients that have experienced a myocardial infarction or stroke. Abrocitinib may be taken with or without food.

clarithromycin food

Applies to: amoxicillin / clarithromycin / omeprazole

Grapefruit juice may delay the gastrointestinal absorption of clarithromycin but does not appear to affect the overall extent of absorption or inhibit the metabolism of clarithromycin. The mechanism of interaction is unknown but may be related to competition for intestinal CYP450 3A4 and/or absorptive sites. In an open-label, randomized, crossover study consisting of 12 healthy subjects, coadministration with grapefruit juice increased the time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) of both clarithromycin and 14-hydroxyclarithromycin (the active metabolite) by 80% and 104%, respectively, compared to water. Other pharmacokinetic parameters were not significantly altered. This interaction is unlikely to be of clinical significance.

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.
