Interactions between your drugs

Major

dexAMETHasone bosutinib

Applies to: Dalalone LA (dexamethasone) and Bosulif (bosutinib)

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent and moderate inducers of CYP450 3A4 may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of bosutinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 24 healthy volunteers, administration of a single 500 mg dose of bosutinib with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg/day for 6 days) under fed conditions resulted in an 86% decrease in bosutinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and 94% decrease in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration of bosutinib alone.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of bosutinib with potent and moderate CYP450 3A4 inducers should be avoided due to the potential for reduced efficacy.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

bosutinib food

Applies to: Bosulif (bosutinib)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of bosutinib. When given with a high-fat meal, bosutinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.8- and 1.7-fold, respectively.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice is likely to increase the plasma concentrations of bosutinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. However, the interaction has not been studied. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.

MANAGEMENT: Bosutinib should be administered with a meal. The consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and supplements that contain grapefruit extract should be avoided.

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.
