Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

palbociclib gepirone

Applies to: Ibrance (palbociclib) and gepirone

Palbociclib may increase the blood levels and effects of gepirone. This may increase the risk and or severity of side effects such as a change in the electrical activity of your heart called QT prolongation, dizziness, nausea, headache, trouble sleeping, stomach pain, and/or upset stomach. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience an irregular heartbeat, palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, lightheadedness, and/or fainting as these could be symptoms of an uncommon, but potentially life-threatening heart rhythm resulting from QT prolongation. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or are experiencing any particularly bothersome side effects.
