Drug and food interactions

Moderate

entecavir food

Applies to: Baraclude (entecavir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food delays the oral absorption and reduces the oral bioavailability of entecavir. According to the product labeling, administration of entecavir 0.5 mg with a standard high-fat meal or a light meal resulted in a delay in absorption by 0.25 to 0.75 hours, a decrease in the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by 44% to 46%, and a decrease in the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) by 18% to 20% compared to administration in the fasting state.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, entecavir should be administered on an empty stomach at least 2 hours after a meal and 2 hours before the next meal.

Minor

tenofovir food

Applies to: Viread (tenofovir)

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
