Drug Interactions between Ditropan and vorasidenib

GENERALLY AVOID: Due to induction of CYP450 1A2, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of vorasidenib, smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib may decrease its plasma concentrations and anti-tumor effect. Clinical and pharmacokinetic data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Patient should be advised to avoid smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib because it may reduce efficacy of the therapy.

GENERALLY AVOID: Use of anticholinergic agents with alcohol may result in sufficient impairment of attention so as to render driving and operating machinery more hazardous. In addition, the potential for abuse may be increased with the combination. The mechanism of interaction is not established but may involve additive depressant effects on the central nervous system. No effect of oral propantheline or atropine on blood alcohol levels was observed in healthy volunteers when administered before ingestion of a standard ethanol load. However, one study found impairment of attention in subjects given atropine 0.5 mg or glycopyrrolate 1 mg in combination with alcohol.

MANAGEMENT: Alcohol should generally be avoided during therapy with anticholinergic agents. Patients should be counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until they know how these agents affect them.
