calcifediol sucroferric oxyhydroxide

Applies to: calcifediol and sucroferric oxyhydroxide

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with sucroferric oxyhydroxide may reduce the oral bioavailability of vitamin D analogs. The proposed mechanism involves nonspecific adsorption to the ferric ion component of sucroferric oxyhydroxide, resulting in an insoluble complex that is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. According to the product labeling for sucroferric oxyhydroxide, an in vitro interaction with paricalcitol was observed when studied in aqueous solutions that mimic the physico-chemical conditions of the gastrointestinal tract.

MANAGEMENT: Oral formulations of vitamin D analogs should not be prescribed with sucroferric oxyhydroxide.
