Drug and food interactions

Moderate

vericiguat food

Applies to: vericiguat

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration of vericiguat with food reduces its pharmacokinetic variability and increases its exposure. Vericiguat is less soluble at neutral pH than at acidic pH. Administration of vericiguat with a high-fat, high-calorie meal or low-fat, high-carbohydrate meal increased time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) from about 1 hour (fasted) to about 4 hours (fed) and increased vericiguat systemic exposure (AUC) by 19% and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by 9% for the 5 mg tablet and by 44% (AUC) and 41% (Cmax) for the 10 mg tablet as compared with the fasted state. Concurrent treatment with drugs that increase gastric pH, such as proton pump inhibitors or antacids, decrease vericiguat AUC by about 30%. Co-treatment with drugs that increase gastric pH did not affect vericiguat exposure in patients with heart failure when vericiguat was taken as directed with food.

MANAGEMENT: Administer vericiguat with food to ensure maximal exposure and decrease pharmacokinetic variability.

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.
