Drug and food/lifestyle interactions
ribavirin food/lifestyle
Applies to: Rebetron (interferon alfa-2b / ribavirin)
Food can enhance the levels of ribavirin in your body. Ribavirin should be taken with food or just after eating. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Do not take it on an empty stomach. Swallow the tablet or capsule whole.
riociguat food/lifestyle
Applies to: Adempas (riociguat)
Chemical substances present in cigarette smoke may reduce the blood levels of riociguat. This means that the medication may be less effective if you smoke during treatment. Let your doctor know if you are a smoker, or if you start smoking or stop smoking during treatment with riociguat, because the dosage may need to be adjusted. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Food may affect the absorption and blood levels of riociguat. To avoid significant fluctuations in blood levels of the medication, riociguat should be taken about the same time each day consistently either with or without food.
