Interactions between your drugs
ramelteon berotralstat
Applies to: ramelteon and berotralstat
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
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
ramelteon food
Applies to: ramelteon
Taking ramelteon with a high-fat or heavy meal may delay the onset of sleep. For faster sleep onset, ramelteon should not be administered with or immediately after a high-fat or heavy meal. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Do not drink alcohol while you are taking ramelteon. It can increase some of the side effects including dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. Some people may also experience impairment in thinking and judgment. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns.
