- Fleet Enema (sodium biphosphate/sodium phosphate)
- glasdegib
Interactions between your drugs
sodium biphosphate glasdegib
Applies to: Fleet Enema (sodium biphosphate / sodium phosphate) and glasdegib
MONITOR: The following interaction applies only to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for bowel cleansing. It does not apply to products containing sodium biphosphate that are used for other, non-laxative related purposes.
The use of bowel cleansing preparations may increase the risk of ventricular arrhythmia, particularly torsade de pointes, in patients treated with drugs that prolong the QT interval. Severe and potentially fatal cases of electrolyte disorders and arrhythmias have been reported in elderly patients using bowel cleansing products. Electrolyte disturbances including hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia are known risk factors for torsade de pointes associated with QT interval prolongation.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when bowel cleansing preparations are prescribed in patients treated with drugs that prolong the QT interval. Monitoring of baseline and posttreatment serum electrolyte levels is recommended, particularly in the elderly. Patients should be instructed to drink plenty of clear liquids before, during, and after the bowel preparation process. Consideration should be given to consumption of 36 to 48 fluid ounces of a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution in the six hours before the first dose. Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope.

Drug and food interactions
sodium biphosphate food
Applies to: Fleet Enema (sodium biphosphate / sodium phosphate)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Bowel cleansing products can increase the gastrointestinal transit rate. Oral medications administered within one hour of the start of administration of the bowel cleansing solution may be flushed from the gastrointestinal tract and not properly absorbed.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised that absorption of oral medications may be impaired during bowel cleansing treatment. Oral medications (e.g., anticonvulsants, oral contraceptives, antidiabetic agents, antibiotics) should not be administered during and within one hour of starting bowel cleansing treatment whenever possible. However, if concomitant use cannot be avoided, monitoring for reduced therapeutic effects may be advisable.

glasdegib food
Applies to: glasdegib
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit or grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of glasdegib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall induced by certain compounds present in grapefruit. When glasdegib was coadministered with ketoconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, glasdegib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.4- and 2.4-fold, respectively, compared to administration of glasdegib alone. The interaction has not been studied with other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Because grapefruit juice inhibits primarily intestinal rather than hepatic CYP450 3A4, the magnitude of interaction is greatest for those drugs that undergo significant presystemic metabolism by CYP450 3A4 (i.e., drugs with low oral bioavailability). In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit juice are also subject to a high degree of interpatient variability, thus the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict.
When administered with a high-fat, high-calorie meal (800 to 1000 total calories, 500 to 600 fat calories, 250 carbohydrate calories, and 150 protein calories), glasdegib Cmax and AUC decreased by 31% and 16%, respectively.
MANAGEMENT: Glasdegib may be administered with or without food. Coadministration of grapefruit or grapefruit juice with glasdegib should preferably be avoided.
