Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

felbamate capmatinib

Applies to: felbamate and capmatinib

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of capmatinib. According to the prescribing information, capmatinib is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4 and aldehyde oxidase. When administered with rifampin, a potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, capmatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 56% and 67%, respectively. Coadministration with efavirenz, a moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer, decreased capmatinib Cmax and AUC by 34% and 44%, respectively. Data are not available for other, less potent inducers.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of capmatinib should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

felbamate food

Applies to: felbamate

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

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.
