Interactions between your drugs

Major

nelfinavir osimertinib

Applies to: emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir and osimertinib

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of osimertinib, which has been shown in vitro to be primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. However, no pharmacokinetic data are available from drug interaction studies. Because osimertinib is associated with concentration-dependent prolongation of the QT interval, increased levels may potentiate the risk of ventricular arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes and sudden death.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of osimertinib with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors should generally be avoided. If coadministration is required, close monitoring for adverse effects such as diarrhea, QT prolongation, torsade de pointes arrhythmia, and cardiomyopathy (e.g., cardiac failure, pulmonary edema, ejection fraction decreases) is recommended, and the osimertinib dosage adjusted accordingly or treatment discontinued as necessary.

Drug and food interactions

Minor

tenofovir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
