Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

clofarabine ospemifene

Applies to: Clolar (clofarabine) and ospemifene

MONITOR: Ospemifene and its major metabolite, 4-hydroxyospemifene, may increase the plasma concentrations and the risk of adverse effects of drugs that are substrates of organic cation transporter (OCT)1, uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A3, and/or UGT1A9. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, is decreased clearance due to ospemifene-mediated inhibition of OCT1, UGT1A3, and/or UGT1A9.

MANAGEMENT: Until more information is available, caution is advised when ospemifene is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of OCT1, UGT1A3, and/or UGT1A9, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ospemifene is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ospemifene food

Applies to: ospemifene

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly enhances the oral bioavailability of ospemifene. In a cross-study comparison, administration of a single 60 mg dose of ospemifene with a high-fat/high-calorie meal (860 kcal) in postmenopausal women increased ospemifene peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 2.3- and 1.7-fold, respectively, compared to administration under fasted condition. Elimination half-life and time to maximum concentration (Tmax) were not altered. In two separate food effect studies where different ospemifene tablet formulations were given to healthy male volunteers, ospemifene Cmax and AUC increased by 2.3- and 1.8-fold, respectively, with a low-fat/low-calorie meal (300 kcal) and 3.6- and 2.7-fold, respectively, with a high-fat/high-calorie meal (860 kcal) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ospemifene should be taken once daily with food.

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.
