Interactions between your drugs
dilTIAZem copanlisib
Applies to: Cardizem CD (diltiazem) and copanlisib
MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may increase the plasma concentrations of copanlisib, which is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and efflux transporter. When a single 60 mg intravenous dose of copanlisib was administered to cancer patients in combination with the potent CYP450 3A4 and P-gp inhibitor, itraconazole (200 mg once daily for 10 days), mean copanlisib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) did not change but systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 53%.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when copanlisib is used with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for potentially increased adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, hyperglycemia, hypertension, noninfectious pneumonitis, cutaneous reactions (e.g., exfoliative dermatitis, maculopapular rash), anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and infections. Dosage adjustments for copanlisib may be necessary and should be done in accordance with the product labeling.

MONITOR: Like many CNS-active agents, alcohol can exhibit hypotensive effects. Coadministration with antihypertensive agents including diltiazem may result in additive effects on blood pressure and orthostasis.
MONITOR: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered diltiazem in some patients. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. In a study of ten healthy male volunteers, administration of a single 120 mg oral dose of immediate-release diltiazem in combination with 250 mL of grapefruit juice increased the diltiazem peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by an average of 22% and 20%, respectively, compared to administration with water. The time to reach Cmax (Tmax) and the terminal half-life were not affected, and no statistically significant differences in blood pressure and heart rate were observed during administration with grapefruit juice relative to water. In a different study, repeated administration of 200 mL of grapefruit juice at 0, 2, 4, 8 and 12 hours had no significant effect on the Cmax or AUC of a single 120 mg oral dose of diltiazem, but increased its half-life from 4.1 to 5.1 hours. The ratios for the N-demethyl and deacetyl metabolites to diltiazem were also not affected by grapefruit juice. However, because pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit juice are often subject to a high degree of interpatient variability, the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised that alcohol may potentiate the hypotensive effects of diltiazem, especially during the initiation of therapy and following a dosage increase. Caution should be exercised when rising from a sitting or recumbent position, and patients should notify their physician if they experience dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, orthostasis, or tachycardia. Patients who regularly consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice should be monitored for increased adverse effects of diltiazem such as such as headache, irregular heartbeat, edema, unexplained weight gain, and chest pain. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided if an interaction is suspected.

Applies to: copanlisib
GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of copanlisib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of copanlisib by certain compounds present in grapefruit. When a single 60 mg intravenous dose of copanlisib was administered to cancer patients in combination with the potent CYP450 3A4 and P-gp inhibitor, itraconazole (200 mg once daily for 10 days), mean copanlisib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) did not change but systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 53%. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to copanlisib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, hyperglycemia, hypertension, noninfectious pneumonitis, cutaneous reactions (e.g., exfoliative dermatitis, maculopapular rash), anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and infections.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should avoid the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with copanlisib.

MONITOR: Calcium-containing products may decrease the effectiveness of calcium channel blockers by saturating calcium channels with calcium. Calcium chloride has been used to manage acute severe verapamil toxicity.
MANAGEMENT: Management consists of monitoring the effectiveness of calcium channel blocker therapy during coadministration with calcium products.
