Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

simeprevir enasidenib

Applies to: Olysio (simeprevir) and enasidenib

MONITOR: Based on in vitro data, coadministration with enasidenib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the transporters, organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1/1B3 and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to enasidenib -mediated inhibition of OATP1B1/1B3 and BCRP transporters. There are no clinical data regarding the use of enasidenib with these substrates.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when enasidenib is used concurrently with medications that are substrates of OATP 1B1/1B3 and/or BCRP, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever enasidenib is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

simeprevir food

Applies to: Olysio (simeprevir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly enhances the oral bioavailability of simeprevir, although the type of food does not seem to matter. In healthy study subjects, administration of simeprevir after a high-fat, high-caloric (928 kcal) breakfast increased systemic exposure (AUC) by 61% and delayed absorption by 1 hour, while administration after a normal caloric (533 kcal) breakfast increased AUC by 69% and delayed absorption by 1.5 hours.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, simeprevir should be administered with 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.
