Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

lesinurad fostamatinib

Applies to: Duzallo (allopurinol / lesinurad) and fostamatinib

MONITOR: Coadministration of fostamatinib with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease exposure to the active metabolite known as R406, the predominant moiety in the systemic circulation following fostamatinib administration. Fostamatinib is metabolized in the gut by alkaline phosphatase to R406, which then undergoes oxidation via CYP450 3A4 and glucuronidation via UGT1A9. When a single 150 mg dose of fostamatinib was administered with the potent CYP450 3A4 and UGT1A1 inducer rifampin (600 mg once daily for 8 days), R406 peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased on average by 59% and 75%, respectively, compared to fostamatinib administered alone. Reduced efficacy of fostamatinib may occur. The interaction has not been studied with other, less potent inducers.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of fostamatinib should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

allopurinol food

Applies to: Duzallo (allopurinol / lesinurad)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The tolerability of allopurinol may be improved by giving it after a meal. Additionally, when the dose is greater than 300 mg, dividing the total daily dose into smaller doses administered more often may be appropriate to help minimize gastrointestinal irritation.

MONITOR: Concomitant use of allopurinol with central nervous system (CNS) depressants, including alcohol, may potentiate adverse effects such as somnolence and sedation.

MANAGEMENT: To improve tolerability, some manufacturers suggest administering allopurinol after a meal. Additionally, if the daily dose is greater than 300 mg, administering allopurinol in divided doses may help reduce gastrointestinal intolerance. Patients should also be counseled to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol and to avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until they know how the medication affects them.

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.
