Interactions between your drugs
leniolisib suzetrigine
Applies to: leniolisib and suzetrigine
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of leniolisib. The proposed mechanism is accelerated clearance of leniolisib due to induction of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme, which is the primary route of elimination of leniolisib. Pharmacokinetic-based physiologic modeling predicts that concomitant use of leniolisib with the potent CYP450 3A4 rifampin or moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer efavirenz may decrease the systemic exposure (AUC 0-12h) of leniolisib by 78% and 58%, respectively. The extent to which other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers may interact with leniolisib is unknown.
MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of leniolisib should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected. Patients should be advised to notify their physician if their symptoms worsen or their condition changes.
Drug and food interactions
suzetrigine food
Applies to: suzetrigine

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit and/or grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of suzetrigine and M6-SUZ, a major active metabolite whose systemic exposure (AUC) at steady state is approximately 3 times that of the parent drug but exhibits 3.7-fold less potency in blocking the NaV1.8 voltage-gated sodium channels responsible for transmission of pain signals to the spinal cord and brain. The proposed mechanism for the interaction is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice but has been reported for other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. When a single dose of suzetrigine was administered with itraconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, mean suzetrigine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.5- and 4.8-fold, respectively, while mean Cmax of M6-SUZ decreased by 32% and AUC increased by 4.4-fold. Coadministration of fluconazole, a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, with suzetrigine dosed according to the manufacturer's recommended dosage modification is predicted to increase the mean Cmax and AUC of suzetrigine by 1.4- and 1.5-fold, respectively, while the mean Cmax and AUC of M6-SUZ are predicted to increase by 1.1- and 1.2-fold, respectively, compared to suzetrigine administered at the regular recommended dosage without fluconazole. In general, the effects of grapefruit products are concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit (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.
ADJUST DOSE INTERVAL: Food may delay the absorption of suzetrigine without impacting the overall systemic exposures to parent drug and M6-SUZ. Administration of suzetrigine 100 mg (the first dose) with a high-fat meal (800 to 1000 calories; 50% from fat), a moderate-fat meal (600 calories; 30% from fat), and a low-fat meal (<=500 calories; <=25% from fat) resulted in decreased initial plasma concentrations of suzetrigine and M6-SUZ compared to administration in a fasted state. The median time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) for suzetrigine and M6-SUZ when administered with either a high-fat or moderate-fat meal was 5 hours and 24 hours, respectively, versus 3 hours and 8 to 10 hours, respectively, when administered in the fasted state. The Cmax and AUC of suzetrigine and M6-SUZ were not affected by any of the meal conditions, including a high-fat meal consumed one hour after suzetrigine. Administration of the second suzetrigine dose of 50 mg with or without regard to meals is also predicted to have no effect on the systemic exposures of suzetrigine and M6-SUZ.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should avoid consumption of foods or drinks containing grapefruit during treatment with suzetrigine. The starting dose of 100 mg should be taken on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after food, although clear liquids (e.g., water, apple juice, vegetable broth, tea, black coffee) may be consumed during this time. Subsequent doses may be taken with or without food.
leniolisib food
Applies to: leniolisib
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 including grapefruit or grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of leniolisib, which undergoes extensive CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall and liver. 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 leniolisib. Some authorities recommend to avoid grapefruit products during leniolisib treatment (UK).
