Moderate

ergotamine ribociclib

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital) and Kisqali Femara Co-Pack (letrozole / ribociclib)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of ergot derivatives, which are primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction has occurred in patients receiving ergotamine or dihydroergotamine with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as macrolide antibiotics and protease inhibitors. Clinical ergotism has been reported, which can lead to gangrene and myocardial infarction in severe cases. Even small, single doses of ergotamine have resulted in clinically significant interactions, occasionally resulting in surgical amputation or death. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised during concomitant use of ergot derivatives with mild or moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for potential ergot toxicity including peripheral vasospasm, ischemia, thrombosis, tachycardia, and hypertension.

PENTobarbital ribociclib

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital) and Kisqali Femara Co-Pack (letrozole / ribociclib)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of ribociclib, which is a substrate of the isoenzyme. Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic simulations (PBPK) suggest that a moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer, efavirenz, may decrease ribociclib Cmax and AUC by 37% and 60%, respectively. However, data with less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers are limited.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished therapeutic effects of ribociclib should be considered when prescribed with inducers of CYP450 3A4, particularly moderate inducers including efavirenz and nevirapine. Pharmacologic effects of ribociclib should be monitored more closely whenever an inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy. Alternative treatment may be required if an interaction is suspected.

letrozole ribociclib

Applies to: Kisqali Femara Co-Pack (letrozole / ribociclib) and Kisqali Femara Co-Pack (letrozole / ribociclib)

MONITOR: Coadministration with ribociclib may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to ribociclib-mediated inhibition of CYP450 3A4 metabolism. In healthy study subjects, administration of midazolam, a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate, with multiple 400 mg daily doses of ribociclib increased the midazolam peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 2.1-fold and 3.8-fold, respectively, compared to midazolam administered alone. When given at a clinically relevant dose of 600 mg daily, ribociclib is predicted to increase midazolam Cmax and AUC by 2.4-fold and 5.2-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when ribociclib is used concomitantly with drugs that undergo metabolism by CYP450 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ribociclib is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Drug and food interactions

Major

PENTobarbital food

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital)

GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent acute use of barbiturates and ethanol may result in additive CNS effects, including impaired coordination, sedation, and death. Tolerance of these agents may occur with chronic use. The mechanism is related to inhibition of microsomal enzymes acutely and induction of hepatic microsomal enzymes chronically.

MANAGEMENT: The combination of ethanol and barbiturates should be avoided.

ergotamine food

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital)

MONITOR: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Because grapefruit juice inhibits primarily intestinal rather than hepatic CYP450 3A4, the magnitude of interaction is greatest for those drugs that undergo significant presystemic metabolism by CYP450 3A4 (i.e., drugs with low oral bioavailability). In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit juice are also subject to a high degree of interpatient variability, thus the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict.

MANAGEMENT: Patients who regularly consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice should be monitored for adverse effects and altered plasma concentrations of drugs that undergo significant presystemic metabolism by CYP450 3A4. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided if an interaction is suspected. Orange juice is not expected to interact with these drugs.

Moderate

ribociclib food

Applies to: Kisqali Femara Co-Pack (letrozole / ribociclib)

GENERALLY AVOID: Pomegranates and grapefruit may increase the systemic exposure to ribociclib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in these fruits. Increased exposure to ribociclib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as infections, neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, alopecia, fatigue, headache, and abnormal liver function may be increased.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving ribociclib should avoid consumption of pomegranates or pomegranate juice and grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment.

belladonna food

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital)

GENERALLY AVOID: Use of anticholinergic agents with alcohol may result in sufficient impairment of attention so as to render driving and operating machinery more hazardous. In addition, the potential for abuse may be increased with the combination. The mechanism of interaction is not established but may involve additive depressant effects on the central nervous system. No effect of oral propantheline or atropine on blood alcohol levels was observed in healthy volunteers when administered before ingestion of a standard ethanol load. However, one study found impairment of attention in subjects given atropine 0.5 mg or glycopyrrolate 1 mg in combination with alcohol.

MANAGEMENT: Alcohol should generally be avoided during therapy with anticholinergic agents. Patients should be counseled to avoid activities requiring mental alertness until they know how these agents affect them.

caffeine food

Applies to: Migracet-PB (belladonna / caffeine / ergotamine / pentobarbital)

The effect of grapefruit juice on the pharmacologic activity of caffeine is controversial. One report suggests that grapefruit juice increases the effect of caffeine. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of cytochrome P-450 metabolism of caffeine. However, a well-conducted pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic study did not demonstrate this effect. The clinical significance of this potential interaction is unknown.
