- ella (ulipristal)
Interactions between your drugs
ulipristal betrixaban
Applies to: ella (ulipristal) and betrixaban
MONITOR: Based on in vitro inhibition data, coadministration with ulipristal may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporter. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance in the intestine, liver, and/or kidney due to inhibition of P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux by ulipristal. However, the interaction has not been studied or reported clinically.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when ulipristal is used concurrently with drugs that are known P-gp substrates, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ulipristal is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Drug and food interactions
betrixaban food
Applies to: betrixaban
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral bioavailability of betrixaban. When administered with a low-fat (900 calories; 20% fat) or high-fat (900 calories; 60% fat) meal, betrixaban peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased relative to administration in the fasting state by an average of 70% and 61%, respectively, with the low-fat meal and 50% and 48%, respectively, with the high-fat meal. The effect of food on betrixaban pharmacokinetics could be observed for up to 6 hours after meal intake.
MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends taking betrixaban at the same time each day with food.
