Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

niraparib seladelpar

Applies to: Akeega (abiraterone / niraparib) and seladelpar

Niraparib may increase the blood levels of seladelpar. This can increase the risk and/or severity of side effects such as changes in your liver tests, headache, stomach pain or swelling (distension), nausea, and/or dizziness. Your healthcare provider may already be aware of the risks, but has determined that this is the best course of treatment for you and is monitoring you closely for any potential complications. Speak with your healthcare provider right away if you develop any of the following signs or symptoms during treatment with seladelpar as they may indicate worsening liver problems: swelling of your stomach-area (abdomen) from a build-up of fluid, yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes, pain on the right side of your stomach, coughing or vomiting up blood or blood clots, red or black stools that look like tar, and/or mental changes like confusion, slurred speech, or changes in personality. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. 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.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

abiraterone food

Applies to: Akeega (abiraterone / niraparib)

This interaction does not apply to abiraterone acetate (Yonsa) 125 mg tablets, which can be taken with or without food.

Taking abiraterone with food increases the amount of medicine that gets absorbed by the body for certain formulations. This may increase the risk of side effects such as high blood pressure, water retention, and a condition called hypokalemia (low blood potassium), which in severe cases can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, breathing and swallowing difficulties (due to muscle paralysis), and irregular heart rhythm. You should take abiraterone once a day on an empty stomach. No food should be eaten for at least two hours before and one hour after taking abiraterone. Let your doctor know if you experience nausea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal cramping, confusion, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, muscle weakness, muscle cramps, numbness or tingling, rapid heartbeat, chest pain, and/or swelling in the legs or feet, as these may be symptoms of hypokalemia or excessive effects of abiraterone. 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.
