Interactions between your drugs

Major

bromfenac tovorafenib

Applies to: DurAct (bromfenac) and tovorafenib

MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration of tovorafenib and drugs that interfere with platelet function or coagulation may potentiate the risk of bleeding complications. Major hemorrhagic events, such as tumor hemorrhage, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, intracranial tumor hemorrhage, and hemoptysis have been reported during tovorafenib therapy. In the safety evaluation of tovorafenib monotherapy in 137 patients with pediatric low-grade glioma harboring a BRAF alteration, serious bleeding events (Grade 3 or 4) were reported in 5% of patients, including a Grade 5 tumor hemorrhage in one patient.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of other medications that interfere with platelet function or coagulation should be considered cautiously in patients treated with tovorafenib. Close clinical and laboratory observation for bleeding complications is recommended during therapy. Patients should be advised to promptly report any signs and symptoms of bleeding to their physician. Refer to the product labeling for guidance on tovorafenib dosage adjustments in patients with Grade 2 to 4 hemorrhage.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

bromfenac food

Applies to: DurAct (bromfenac)

ADJUST DOSE: In-vivo studies have demonstrated that the absorption of bromfenac is greatly reduced if the drug is taken within three and one-half hours following a high fat meal. The concomitant administration of a high fat meal has led to a 75% reduction in peak plasma concentrations and a 60% reduction in total area under the curve. The mechanism has not been described.

MANAGEMENT: An increased dosage of bromfenac (from 25 to 50 mg) may be needed if a high fat meal is consumed. The clinician may want to warn the patient about subtherapeutic analgesic effects if high fat meals are regularly consumed.
