Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

guanFACINE vimseltinib

Applies to: guanfacine and vimseltinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with vimseltinib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2). The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, involves decreased clearance due to inhibition of OCT2-mediated renal tubular secretion by vimseltinib. Clinical data are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of vimseltinib with OCT2 substrates should generally be avoided. If coadministration is considered necessary, the individual product labeling of the OCT2 substrate should be consulted for specific guidance.

Drug and food interactions

Major

guanFACINE food

Applies to: guanfacine

Avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with guanFACINE, as it may increase blood levels and effects of the medication. This may cause blood pressure to fall excessively, especially when you rise from a sitting or lying position. The risk of other side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, headache, palpitations, and heart rate changes may also increase. Additionally, you should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with guanFACINE. Combining the medication with alcohol can intensify sedative and blood pressure lowering effects, which may increase the risk of falls and injury. Avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medication affects you, and use caution when getting up from a sitting or lying position. If you are using a long-acting or extended-release formulation of the medication, make sure you do not take it with a high-fat meal. Doing so results in increased absorption and elevated blood levels of the medication. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns.
