Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ibrutinib oritavancin

Applies to: Imbruvica (ibrutinib) and oritavancin

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of ibrutinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. Preliminary pharmacokinetic data from an ongoing dedicated drug interaction trial and simulations using physiologically based pharmacokinetic models indicate that rifampin, a potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, can decrease ibrutinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by more than 10-fold. Pharmacokinetic modeling also suggests that a moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer such as efavirenz may decrease the AUC of ibrutinib up to 3-fold.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished therapeutic effects of ibrutinib should be considered when prescribed in combination with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Patients should be closely monitored, and the dosage of ibrutinib adjusted as necessary in accordance with product labeling.

Drug and food interactions

Major

ibrutinib food

Applies to: Imbruvica (ibrutinib)

Ibrutinib should be taken once daily at approximately the same time everyday. Do not consume grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or Seville oranges unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Grapefruit and Seville oranges may significantly increase the blood levels of ibrutinib. This may increase the risk of side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, constipation, hemorrhage, kidney problems, and impaired bone marrow function resulting in low numbers of different types of blood cells. You may also be more likely to develop anemia, bleeding problems, or infections due to low blood cell counts. You should contact your doctor if you develop paleness, fatigue, dizziness, fainting, unusual bruising or bleeding, fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, and pain or burning during urination. Also seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs and symptoms that may suggest kidney damage such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, increased or decreased urination, sudden weight gain or weight loss, fluid retention, swelling, shortness of breath, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, confusion, and irregular heart rhythm. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

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.
