Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

cycloPHOSphamide isavuconazonium

Applies to: Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) and isavuconazonium

MONITOR: Coadministration of isavuconazonium sulfate (prodrug of isavuconazole) with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2B6, such as cyclophosphamide, may have variable effects on the plasma concentrations of these drugs. Isavuconazole is a moderate inhibitor of CYP450 3A4 as well as a mild inducer of CYP450 2B6, and the resulting plasma concentrations will depend on the sensitivity of the affected drugs to these isoenzymes.

MANAGEMENT: Until more information is available, caution is advised when isavuconazonium sulfate is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2B6, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever isavuconazonium sulfate is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
