Interactions between your drugs

Major

fosphenytoin daclatasvir

Applies to: fosphenytoin and daclatasvir

CONTRAINDICATED: Coadministration with potent inducers of CYP450 3A4 may significantly decrease the plasma concentration of daclatasvir, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When a single 60 mg dose of daclatasvir was administered following pretreatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg once daily), daclatasvir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 56% and 79%, respectively. Loss of therapeutic efficacy may occur.

MANAGEMENT: Given the risk of reduced viral susceptibility and resistance development associated with subtherapeutic antiviral drug levels, concomitant use of daclatasvir with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers is considered contraindicated.

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.
