Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

cycloSPORINE linvoseltamab

Applies to: cyclosporine and linvoseltamab

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with linvoseltamab may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 isoenzymes. Initiation of linvoseltamab treatment causes the transient release of cytokines that may suppress CYP450 isoenzymes; however, the potential for drug-drug interactions due to this effect has not been clinically evaluated. According to the manufacturer, increased exposure to CYP450 substrate(s) is more likely from the start of linvoseltamab therapy (including the initial step-up dosing schedule) through 14 days after the initial 200 mg dose, as well as during and following cytokine release syndrome. Increased exposure to the affected CYP450 substrate(s) may increase the risk of substrate-related adverse effects.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when linvoseltamab is coadministered with drugs that are metabolized by CYP450 isoenzymes, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range, and where minimal changes to concentration may lead to significant adverse reactions (e.g. carbamazepine, colchicine, cyclosporine, disopyramide, phenytoin, quinidine, theophylline, warfarin, macrolide immunosuppressants, vinca alkaloids, and some narcotic analgesics). Clinical and/or laboratory monitoring are recommended, particularly at the initial phase of treatment with linvoseltamab as well as during and after cytokine release syndrome. Individual product labeling for the CYP450 substrate(s) should be consulted for specific dosage adjustment recommendations.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions

Moderate

cycloSPORINE food/lifestyle

Applies to: cyclosporine

Grapefruit and grapefruit juice can increase the levels of cycloSPORINE in your body and should generally not be consumed during treatment. High blood levels of cycloSPORINE can lead to increased risk of serious side effects on kidney, liver, and nervous system functions. If you regularly consume grapefruits or grapefruit juice, you should be monitored for side effects and/or changes in cycloSPORINE levels. However, do not increase or decrease the amount of grapefruit products in your diet without first talking to your doctor. You should also take cycloSPORINE on a consistent schedule with regard to time of day and relation to meals. Let your doctor know if you experience fever, rash, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, dark urine, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), decreased urination, excessive thirst, swelling, weight gain, dizziness, fatigue, weakness, headache, blurred vision, numbness/burning/tingling in the hand and feet, tremors, or convulsions, as they may be symptoms caused by excessive effects of cycloSPORINE.

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.
