Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

cladribine maribavir

Applies to: cladribine and maribavir

MONITOR: Coadministration with maribavir may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporter. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to maribavir-mediated inhibition of the BCRP transport protein. There are no clinical data regarding the use of maribavir with BCRP substrates.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when maribavir is prescribed with drugs that are BCRP substrates, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Clinical and laboratory monitoring as well as dosage adjustments may be appropriate for some drugs whenever maribavir is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Oral cladribine may increase the bioavailability of other drugs, which may increase the risk or severity of adverse reactions. Cladribine tablets may contain hydroxypropyl betadex, which could form a complex with the active ingredients of other drugs, especially agents with low solubility. The clinical relevance of this interaction remains unknown.

MANAGEMENT: Administration of oral cladribine should be separated from any other oral drug by at least 3 hours.
