Interactions between your drugs

Minor

fosamprenavir doravirine

Applies to: fosamprenavir and doravirine

Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of doravirine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 10 study subjects, administration of a single 50 mg dose of doravirine with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ritonavir (100 mg twice daily) increased doravirine peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (C24hr) by an average of 31%, 254% and 191%, respectively, compared to administration of doravirine alone. When a single 100 mg dose of doravirine was administered with ketoconazole 400 mg once daily in 10 study subjects, doravirine Cmax, AUC and C24hr increased by an average of 25%, 206% and 175%, respectively. These changes are not considered clinically significant.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

fosamprenavir food

Applies to: fosamprenavir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the systemic bioavailability of amprenavir from fosamprenavir oral suspension. The mechanism of interaction has not been described. According to the product labeling, administration of fosamprenavir oral suspension (1400 mg single dose) with a high-fat meal (967 kcal, 67 g fat, 33 g protein, 58 g carbohydrate) reduced amprenavir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by 46% and systemic exposure (AUC) by 28% compared to administration in a fasted state. The time to reach peak plasma level (Tmax) was delayed by 0.72 hours. In contrast, the same high-fat meal did not affect the pharmacokinetics of amprenavir from fosamprenavir tablets.

MANAGEMENT: Fosamprenavir suspension should be administered on an empty stomach in adults, but with food in pediatric patients to aid palatability and compliance. If emesis occurs within 30 minutes after dosing the suspension, the dose should be repeated. Fosamprenavir tablets may be taken with or without food.

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.
