Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

nafcillin cobicistat

Applies to: nafcillin and cobicistat

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with moderate or weak inducers of CYP450 3A4 may reduce the plasma concentrations of cobicistat, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The clinical significance is unknown.

MANAGEMENT: Given the risk of reduced viral susceptibility and resistance development associated with subtherapeutic antiretroviral drug levels, concomitant use of antiretroviral regimens containing cobicistat with these inducers should be avoided. Alternative treatment combinations that do not include metabolic inducers should be considered whenever possible. If concomitant use is required, close clinical and laboratory monitoring of antiretroviral response is recommended.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

nafcillin food

Applies to: nafcillin

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Certain penicillins may exhibit reduced gastrointestinal absorption in the presence of food. The therapeutic effect of the antimicrobial may be reduced.

MANAGEMENT: The interacting penicillin should be administered one hour before or two hours after meals. Penicillin V and amoxicillin are not affected by food and may be given without regard to meals.

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.
