- Torisel (temsirolimus)
Interactions between your drugs
ARIPiprazole temsirolimus
Applies to: aripiprazole and Torisel (temsirolimus)
MONITOR: Coadministration of sirolimus or tacrolimus with other drugs that are also metabolized by CYP450 3A4 may result in elevated plasma concentrations of the macrolide immunosuppressant and/or the coadministered drug(s). The mechanism is decreased drug clearance due to competitive inhibition of CYP450 3A4 activity. Although clinical data are lacking, the possibility of prolonged and/or increased pharmacologic effects of the drugs should be considered.
MANAGEMENT: Pharmacologic responses and/or plasma drug levels should be monitored more closely whenever a macrolide immunosuppressant or another substrate of CYP450 3A4 is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the dosage(s) adjusted as necessary.

Drug and food interactions
ARIPiprazole food
Applies to: aripiprazole
GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.
MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

temsirolimus food
Applies to: Torisel (temsirolimus)
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of temsirolimus with grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of sirolimus, a major active metabolite of temsirolimus and known substrate of CYP450 3A4. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism by certain compounds present in grapefruits.
MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with temsirolimus should preferably avoid the consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice.
