Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

nisoldipine berotralstat

Applies to: nisoldipine and berotralstat

MONITOR: Coadministration with berotralstat may increase the plasma concentrations and effects of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2D6. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of CYP450 3A4 and 2D6 activity by berotralstat. Berotralstat is considered a moderate inhibitor of CYP450 3A4 and 2D6. In drug interaction studies, berotralstat reportedly increased the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) of the sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate midazolam by approximately 1.5-fold and 2.25-fold, respectively, and the CYP450 3A4 substrate amlodipine by approximately 1.5-fold and 1.75-fold, respectively. It increased the Cmax and AUC of the sensitive CYP450 2D6 substrate dextromethorphan by approximately 2.9-fold and 2.7-fold, respectively, and the CYP450 2D6 substrate desipramine by 1.7-fold and 1.9-fold, respectively. Clinical data are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when berotralstat is coadministered with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2D6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic index. Clinical and laboratory monitoring are recommended following the initiation of berotralstat, and the individual dosages of the concomitant agents adjusted as needed.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

nisoldipine food

Applies to: nisoldipine

GENERALLY AVOID: The consumption of grapefruit juice may be associated with significantly increased plasma concentrations of some calcium channel blockers (CCBs) when they are administered orally. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. The interaction has been reported with the dihydropyridine CCBs (in roughly decreasing order of magnitude) felodipine, nisoldipine, nifedipine, and nimodipine, often with a high degree of interindividual variability. Grapefruit juice caused more than twofold increases in felodipine, nifedipine, and nisoldipine AUCs.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturers of nifedipine and nisoldipine recommend avoiding grapefruit juice. Patients treated orally with other calcium channel blockers should be advised to avoid consumption of large amounts of grapefruits and grapefruit juice to prevent any undue fluctuations in serum drug levels. Increased effects on blood pressure may persist for up to 4 days after the consumption of grapefruit juice. Monitoring for calcium channel blocker adverse effects (e.g., headache, hypotension, syncope, tachycardia, edema) is recommended.

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.
