indacaterol letermovir

Applies to: indacaterol and letermovir

Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein may increase the systemic exposure to indacaterol following oral inhalation, as it is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and efflux transporter. When a single 300 mcg dose of indacaterol inhalation powder was administered in combination with the potent dual CYP450 3A4/P-glycoprotein inhibitor, ketoconazole (200 mcg twice daily for 7 days), indacaterol peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.3- and 1.9-fold, respectively. These changes probably reflect the impact of maximal combined inhibition. Similarly, verapamil 80 mg three times a day for 4 days increased indacaterol Cmax by 1.5-fold and AUC by 2-fold, while erythromycin 400 mg four times a day for 7 days increased indacaterol Cmax by 1.2-fold and AUC by 1.4-fold. Ritonavir 300 mg twice daily for 7.5 days had no effect on the Cmax of indacaterol, but increased its AUC by 1.7-fold. Indacaterol oral inhalation powder has been evaluated in clinical trials for up to one year at doses up to 600 mcg. No dosage adjustment is necessary at the 75 mcg dose when used with CYP450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein inhibitors.

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.
