Drug and food interactions

Major

ibrutinib food

Applies to: ibrutinib

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or Seville oranges may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of ibrutinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Pharmacokinetic modeling suggests that other moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as diltiazem and erythromycin may increase ibrutinib systemic exposure (AUC) by 6- to 9-fold under fasting condition. The safety and efficacy of these exposures are unknown. The highest ibrutinib dose evaluated in clinical trials was 12.5 mg/kg (actual doses of 840 to 1400 mg) given for 28 days, which yielded single dose AUC values that were approximately 50% greater than steady-state exposures seen at the highest indicated dose of 560 mg.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food increases the oral bioavailability of ibrutinib. The mechanism of interaction is unknown. According to the product labeling, administration with food increases ibrutinib exposure approximately 2-fold compared to administration after overnight fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with ibrutinib should avoid consumption of Seville oranges, grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and any supplement containing grapefruit extract. Ibrutinib should be taken once daily at approximately the same time each day.

Moderate

pseudoephedrine food

Applies to: Sudafed Congestion (pseudoephedrine)

MONITOR: Coadministration of two or more sympathomimetic agents may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nervousness, irritability, and increased heart rate. Central nervous system (CNS) stimulants, particularly amphetamines, can potentiate the adrenergic response to vasopressors and other sympathomimetic agents. Additive increases in blood pressure and heart rate may occur due to enhanced peripheral sympathetic activity.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if two or more sympathomimetic agents are coadministered. Pulse and blood pressure should be closely monitored.

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.
