ethanol aprocitentan

Applies to: ethanol and aprocitentan

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UDP-glucuronosyltransferase or UGT) enzymes may decrease the systemic exposure and effects of aprocitentan, which is primarily metabolized by UGT1A1 and UGT2B7. Some UGT inducers are associated with similar adverse effects to those of aprocitentan, such as hepatotoxicity (e.g., alcohol, carbamazepine, efavirenz, fosphenytoin, phenytoin, rifampin). It is unclear if the use of aprocitentan with these substances could increase the risk of similar adverse effects. Clinical data examining aprocitentan with inducers of UGT are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and clinical monitoring for reduced efficacy may be advised if aprocitentan is used with a UGT inducer. If the UGT inducer also shares a similar adverse effect profile with aprocitentan, like hepatotoxicity, additional monitoring for the adverse effect in question may also be recommended. Additional monitoring may also be beneficial if a UGT inducer is added to or withdrawn from the patient's regimen during aprocitentan therapy.

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.
