Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

raNITIdine velpatasvir

Applies to: Acid Control 75 (ranitidine) and sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir

ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration of velpatasvir with H2-receptor antagonists may reduce its gastrointestinal absorption. Velpatasvir exhibits pH-dependent solubility, with increased solubility at lower pH. In 60 healthy volunteers, mean velpatasvir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 20% and 19%, respectively, when a single 400 mg-100 mg dose of sofosbuvir-velpatasvir was administered simultaneously with a 40 mg dose of famotidine. When the famotidine dose was given 12 hours before the sofosbuvir-velpatasvir dose, mean velpatasvir Cmax decreased by 13% and AUC decreased by 15%. These alterations are not considered clinically significant. However, higher dosages of famotidine or another H2-receptor antagonist may result in a greater magnitude of interaction.

MANAGEMENT: H2-receptor antagonists may be administered simultaneously with or 12 hours apart from sofosbuvir-velpatasvir at a dose that does not exceed the equivalent of famotidine 40 mg twice daily.

Moderate

velpatasvir voxilaprevir

Applies to: sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir and sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and/or 1B3 may increase the plasma concentrations of voxilaprevir, which is a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters. When a single 100 mg dose of voxilaprevir was administered with a single 600 mg dose of the potent OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitor cyclosporine (n=24), mean voxilaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 19.0- and 9.4-fold, respectively. Inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp)- and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-mediated intestinal transport and CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of voxilaprevir may also contribute to the overall interaction with cyclosporine. The safety of such high levels of voxilaprevir has not been established.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring are advised when voxilaprevir is used with OATP 1B1 or 1B3 inhibitors.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

voxilaprevir food

Applies to: sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food enhances the oral bioavailability of sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir. Relative to fasting conditions, mean sofosbuvir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 64% to 144%, mean velpatasvir AUC increased by 40% to 166%, and mean voxilaprevir AUC increased by 112% to 435% when the combined sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir formulation is administered with food.

MANAGEMENT: Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir should be administered with food.

Minor

raNITIdine food

Applies to: Acid Control 75 (ranitidine)

H2 antagonists may reduce the clearance of nicotine. Cimetidine, 600 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance of an intravenous nicotine dose by 30%. Ranitidine, 300 mg given twice a day for two days, reduced clearance by 10%. The clinical significance of this interaction is not known. Patients should be monitored for increased nicotine effects when using the patches or gum for smoking cessation and dosage adjustments should be made as appropriate.

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.
