Interactions between your drugs

Minor

voriconazole doravirine

Applies to: voriconazole 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

voriconazole food

Applies to: voriconazole

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral absorption and bioavailability of voriconazole. According to the product labeling, administration of multiple doses of voriconazole with high-fat meals decreased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 34% and 24%, respectively, when the drug is administered as a tablet, and by 58% and 37%, respectively, when administered as the oral suspension.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, voriconazole tablets and oral suspension should be taken at least one hour before or after a meal.

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.
