Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

nisoldipine sotorasib

Applies to: nisoldipine and Lumakras (sotorasib)

MONITOR: Coadministration with sotorasib may decrease the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. The proposed mechanism is increased metabolic clearance due to induction of CYP450 3A4 by sotorasib. When midazolam, a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate, was coadministered with sotorasib, midazolam peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 48% and 53%, respectively. These results suggest moderate induction of CYP450 3A4 by sotorasib.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when sotorasib is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4, particularly sensitive substrates or those with a narrow therapeutic range. The prescribing information recommends avoiding coadministration of sotorasib with CYP450 3A4 substrates for which minimal concentration changes may lead to therapeutic failure. If coadministration is required, dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate whenever sotorasib is added to or withdrawn from therapy. The prescribing information for concomitant medications should be consulted to assess the benefits versus risks of coadministration of a moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer like sotorasib and for any dosage adjustments that may be required.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

nisoldipine food

Applies to: nisoldipine

GENERALLY AVOID: The consumption of grapefruit juice may be associated with significantly increased plasma concentrations of some calcium channel blockers (CCBs) when they are administered orally. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. The interaction has been reported with the dihydropyridine CCBs (in roughly decreasing order of magnitude) felodipine, nisoldipine, nifedipine, and nimodipine, often with a high degree of interindividual variability. Grapefruit juice caused more than twofold increases in felodipine, nifedipine, and nisoldipine AUCs.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturers of nifedipine and nisoldipine recommend avoiding grapefruit juice. Patients treated orally with other calcium channel blockers should be advised to avoid consumption of large amounts of grapefruits and grapefruit juice to prevent any undue fluctuations in serum drug levels. Increased effects on blood pressure may persist for up to 4 days after the consumption of grapefruit juice. Monitoring for calcium channel blocker adverse effects (e.g., headache, hypotension, syncope, tachycardia, edema) is recommended.

sotorasib food

Applies to: Lumakras (sotorasib)

Food does not appear to have a clinically significant effect on the oral bioavailability of sotorasib. When a 960 mg dose of sotorasib was administered to study patients with a high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fat, respectively), sotorasib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) did not change while systemic exposure (AUC 0-24 hours) increased by 25% compared to administration under fasted conditions. Sotorasib can be administered with or without food at approximately the same time each day.

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.
