Drug and food interactions
indinavir food
Applies to: Crixivan (indinavir)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: According to the manufacturer, coadministration with a meal high in calories, fat, and protein reduces the absorption of indinavir. In ten patients given indinavir in this manner, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of indinavir decreased by an average of 84% and 77%, respectively. In contrast, grapefruit juice may have only minor effects on the oral bioavailability of indinavir. The manufacturer's package labeling states that administration of a single 400 mg dose of indinavir with 8 oz. of grapefruit juice decreased indinavir AUC by an average of 26%. Likewise, a study consisting of 14 HIV-infected subjects found no uniform nor significant changes in steady-state indinavir AUC during administration with double-strength grapefruit juice compared to water. There was, however, a delay in absorption (Tmax) due to grapefruit juice that is unlikely to be of clinical significance.
MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, indinavir should be administered without food but with water 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. Alternatively, indinavir may be administered with other liquids such as skim milk, juice, coffee, or tea, or with a light meal (e.g., dry toast with jelly, juice, and coffee with skim milk and sugar; corn flakes, skim milk and sugar).

nintedanib food
Applies to: Ofev (nintedanib)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of nintedanib. After food intake, nintedanib exposure increased by approximately 20% compared to administration under fasted conditions. Absorption was also delayed, as indicated by an increase in the median time to reach maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) from 2 hours in the fasted state to approximately 4 hours under fed conditions, irrespective of the type of food ingested.
MANAGEMENT: Nintedanib should be administered with food.
