Drug Interactions between DDAVP and oliceridine

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate the central nervous system (CNS) depressant effects of opioid analgesics including oliceridine. Concomitant use may result in additive CNS depression and impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills. In more severe cases, hypotension, respiratory depression, profound sedation, coma, or even death may occur.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit or grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of oliceridine by inhibiting the CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of oliceridine, although the interaction has not been studied. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit juice are also subject to a high degree of interpatient variability, thus the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should not consume alcoholic beverages or use drug products that contain alcohol during treatment with oliceridine. Any history of alcohol or illicit drug use should be considered when prescribing oliceridine, and therapy initiated at a lower dosage if necessary. Patients should be closely monitored for signs and symptoms of sedation, respiratory depression, and hypotension. Due to a high degree of interpatient variability with respect to grapefruit juice interactions, patients treated with oliceridine should preferably avoid the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice.

Food may decrease the rate and extent of absorption of desmopressin following oral administration. In 16 healthy, nonsmoking volunteers, administration of a single 400 mcg oral dose of desmopressin concomitantly with a standardized meal (27% fat) resulted in a 52% decrease in the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of desmopressin and a 43% decrease in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration in the fasting state. The Cmax and AUC were still reduced by 46% and 41%, respectively, when desmopressin was administered 1.5 hours after eating. Both feeding regimens prolonged the time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) from 1 hour to 1.5 hours. However, the pharmacodynamic effects of desmopressin were not affected as assessed by urine volume and osmolality for at least 4 hours postdose. The degree of antidiuresis was similar in the absence of food and when the drug was taken with or 1.5 hours after eating. These findings would suggest a fairly minor clinical impact of the interaction in most patients, especially since oral desmopressin is intended for administration at bedtime. Nevertheless, the possibility of food effects should be considered before increasing the dose whenever a diminution of effect is noted. A significant interaction is not expected to occur with the sublingual formulation, since absorption occurs primarily in the oral mucosa, pharynx, and esophagus.
