Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

medroxyPROGESTERone ritonavir

Applies to: depo-subQ provera 104 (medroxyprogesterone) and Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of medroxyprogesterone, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. Aminoglutethimide, a CYP450 3A4 inducer, has been shown to significantly decrease the serum levels of medroxyprogesterone by 50% or more when administered at 250 mg two to four times daily to women with breast cancer receiving high-dose medroxyprogesterone orally. The decrease was accompanied by an increase in serum cortisol level, which suggests diminished adrenal suppressive effect of medroxyprogesterone. The interaction has not been studied with depot formulations of medroxyprogesterone. Because the clearance of medroxyprogesterone is approximately equal to the rate of hepatic blood flow, drugs that induce CYP450 3A4 are not expected to significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of medroxyprogesterone administered parenterally. In one study, no interaction was reported when medroxyprogesterone was administered intravenously with aminoglutethimide.

MANAGEMENT: Pharmacologic response to medroxyprogesterone should be monitored more closely whenever a CYP450 3A4 inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the dosage adjusted as necessary. When administered as the depot formulation for contraception, no dosage adjustment for medroxyprogesterone is currently recommended during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. However, consideration may be given to decreasing the dosing interval (e.g., from one injection every 12 weeks to every 10 weeks) if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may modestly affect the bioavailability of ritonavir from the various available formulations. When the oral solution was given under nonfasting conditions, peak ritonavir concentrations decreased 23% and the extent of absorption decreased 7% relative to fasting conditions. Dilution of the oral solution (within one hour of dosing) with 240 mL of chocolate milk or a nutritional supplement (Advera or Ensure) did not significantly affect the extent and rate of ritonavir absorption. When a single 100 mg dose of the tablet was administered with a high-fat meal (907 kcal; 52% fat, 15% protein, 33% carbohydrates), approximately 20% decreases in mean peak concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were observed relative to administration after fasting. Similar decreases in Cmax and AUC were reported when the tablet was administered with a moderate-fat meal. In contrast, the extent of absorption of ritonavir from the soft gelatin capsule formulation was 13% higher when administered with a meal (615 KCal; 14.5% fat, 9% protein, and 76% carbohydrate) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ritonavir should be taken with meals to enhance gastrointestinal tolerability.

paritaprevir food

Applies to: Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir. Relative to fasting conditions, administration of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir with a moderate-fat meal (approximately 600 Kcal; 20% to 30% calories from fat) increased the mean systemic exposure (AUC) by 82%, 211%, 49%, and 30%, respectively. Relative to fasting conditions, administration of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir with a high-fat meal (approximately 900 Kcal; with 60% calories from fat) increased the mean AUC by 76%, 180%, 44%, and 22%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir plus dasabuvir should always be administered with a meal. The fat or calorie content does not matter.

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.
