Interactions between your drugs
sirolimus deuruxolitinib
Applies to: sirolimus and deuruxolitinib
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of deuruxolitinib with other Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitors, biologic immunomodulators, or other potent immunosuppressants (e.g., cyclosporine) may potentiate the risk of infections, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), and other malignancies, including lymphomas. Serious and sometimes fatal infections including bacterial, mycobacterial (e.g., tuberculosis), fungal, viral including viral reactivation, and other opportunistic infections have been reported in patients who have received deuruxolitinib. Opportunistic infections include tuberculosis, multidermatomal herpes zoster, oral/esophageal candidiasis, and cryptococcosis. Lymphoma and other malignancies, including non-melanoma skin cancers, have also been observed with the use of deuruxolitinib and other Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of deuruxolitinib with other Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), or potent immunosuppressants (e.g., azathioprine, cyclosporine) is not recommended. Patients receiving deuruxolitinib should be closely monitored for the development of signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment, including the possible development of tuberculosis in patients who tested negative for latent tuberculosis infection prior to initiating therapy. If a patient develops a serious infection, deuruxolitinib therapy should be interrupted until the infection is controlled.
Drug and food/lifestyle interactions
sirolimus food/lifestyle
Applies to: sirolimus
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may interact with sirolimus and could lead to potentially dangerous effects. Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while you are taking sirolimus. Also, you should preferably take sirolimus at least one hour before eating. If you do take it with food, you should take it each time with food to avoid changes in sirolimus levels. The oral liquid form of sirolimus must be mixed with water or orange juice only. Do not use grapefruit juice to mix this medication.
deuruxolitinib food/lifestyle
Applies to: deuruxolitinib
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
MONITOR: Smoking during treatment with deuruxolitinib may increase the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and the risk of developing malignancies. In clinical studies of deuruxolitinib, individuals who were current or former smokers had an additional increased risk of overall malignancies. Also, deuruxolitinib may increase patients' risk of MACE, including myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if deuruxolitinib is prescribed to current or past smokers. Patients should be informed about the symptoms of serious cardiovascular events and the steps to take if they occur. The manufacturer recommends discontinuing deuruxolitinib in patients that have experienced a myocardial infarction or stroke. Deuruxolitinib may be taken with or without food.
