Interactions between your drugs
rifAMPin isoniazid
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin and isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin
Using isoniazid together with rifAMPin can cause serious side effects that may affect your liver. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Your doctor may already be aware of the risks but has determined that this is the best course of treatment for you, has taken appropriate precautions, and is monitoring you closely for any potential complications. If you develop severe liver problems, you may need a dose adjustment or an interruption in therapy. Call your doctor immediately if you have fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark colored urine, light colored stools, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes, as these may be signs and symptoms of liver damage. Talk to your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns. 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.
rifAMPin pyrazinamide
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin and isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin
Ask your doctor before using rifAMPin together with pyrazinamide. This can cause damage to the liver. Liver function and drug levels in the blood may be monitored with blood tests during treatment. Call your doctor if you experience fever, rash, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, right upper abdominal pain, dark urine, and jaundice. You may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take both medications. 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.
rifAMPin ripretinib
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin and ripretinib
RifAMPin may significantly reduce the blood levels of ripretinib, which may make the medication less effective in treating your cancer. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. 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.
isoniazid pyrazinamide
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin and isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin
Isoniazid may cause liver problems and using it with other medications that can also affect the liver, such as pyrazinamide, may increase that risk. You should avoid or limit the use of alcohol while being treated with these medications. Your doctor may already be aware of the risks but has determined that this is the best course of treatment for you, has taken appropriate precautions, and is monitoring you closely for any potential complications. If you develop severe liver problems, you may need a dose adjustment or an interruption in therapy. Call your doctor immediately if you have fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark colored urine, light colored stools, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes, as these may be signs and symptoms of liver damage. Talk to your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns. 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.
isoniazid ripretinib
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin and ripretinib
Isoniazid may increase the blood levels of ripretinib in some patients. This may increase the risk and/or severity of side effects such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, hair loss, muscle pain, high blood pressure, heart failure, skin reactions, and skin cancers. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. Let your doctor know if you develop redness, pain, blisters, rash, bleeding, or swelling on the palms of your hands or soles of your feet, as these may be signs and symptoms of a potentially severe and painful condition known as Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia Syndrome (PPES), or hand-foot syndrome. Also seek medical attention if you experience signs and symptoms of heart failure such as fatigue, shortness of breath, protruding neck veins, water retention, and swelling in the abdomen, legs or ankles. 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.
Drug and food interactions
rifAMPin food
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin
Food can decrease the levels of rifAMPin in your body. Taking rifAMPin on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal) will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking rifAMPin because alcohol use may increase the risk of damage to your liver. It is important to seek immediate medical care if you experience any severe side effects or symptoms of liver damage such as fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, dark colored urine, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes. 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.
isoniazid food
Applies to: isoniazid / pyrazinamide / rifampin
Food can decrease the levels of isoniazid in your body. Taking isoniazid on an empty stomach (at least 30 minutes before or 2 hours after a meal) will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking isoniazid because alcohol use may increase the risk of damage to your liver and your risk of experiencing a condition known as peripheral neuropathy (i.E., weakness, numbness, and pain typically in the hands and feet). Your doctor may advise you to take a vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) supplement during your treatment to help prevent peripheral neuropathy. Isoniazid may interact with foods containing histamine or tyramine (e.G., aged cheese, cured meats such as sausages and salami, fava beans, sauerkraut, soy sauce, beer, red wine, skipjack, tuna, mackerel, salmon), which can cause symptoms like headache, sweating, flushing, palpitations, dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling faint. These foods should generally be avoided. It is important to seek immediate medical care if you experience any severe side effects or symptoms of liver damage such as fever, chills, joint pain or swelling, unusual bleeding or bruising, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, dark colored urine, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes. 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.
ripretinib food
Applies to: ripretinib
Grapefruit juice may increase the blood levels of certain medications such as ripretinib. You may want to limit your consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with ripretinib. However, if you have been regularly consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice with the medication, then it is advisable for you to talk with your doctor before changing the amounts of these products in your diet, as this may alter the effects of your medication. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience increased side effects. Orange juice is not expected to interact.
