Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

trifluoperazine lusutrombopag

Applies to: trifluoperazine and lusutrombopag

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) may increase the plasma concentrations of lusutrombopag, which is a substrate of both efflux transporter proteins. Coadministration with cyclosporine, a P-gp and BCRP dual inhibitor, increased lusutrombopag peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 20% each compared with lusutrombopag administration alone.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if lusutrombopag is prescribed in combination with P-gp and/or BCRP inhibitors. Pharmacologic response to lusutrombopag should be monitored more closely following initiation, discontinuation, or change of dosage of the concomitant P-gp or BCRP inhibitor.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

trifluoperazine food

Applies to: trifluoperazine

GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent use of ethanol and phenothiazines may result in additive CNS depression and psychomotor impairment. Also, ethanol may precipitate dystonic reactions in patients who are taking phenothiazines. The two drugs probably act on different sites in the brain, although the exact mechanism of the interaction is not known.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised to avoid alcohol during phenothiazine therapy.

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.
