Edit list (add/remove drugs)

Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

troglitazone maribavir

Applies to: Rezulin (troglitazone) and maribavir

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of maribavir, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When maribavir (400 mg twice daily) was administered with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, rifampin (600 mg once daily), maribavir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 39% and 60%, respectively. The interaction has not been studied with other, less potent inducers.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of maribavir should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions

Moderate

troglitazone food/lifestyle

Applies to: Rezulin (troglitazone)

Alcohol may affect blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. Both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) may occur, depending on how much and how often you drink. You should avoid using alcohol if your diabetes is not well controlled or if you have high triglycerides, neuropathy (nerve damage), or pancreatitis. Moderate alcohol consumption generally does not affect blood glucose levels if your diabetes is under control. However, it may be best to limit alcohol intake to one drink daily for women and two drinks daily for men (1 drink = 5 oz wine, 12 oz beer, or 1.5 oz distilled spirits) in conjunction with your normal meal plan. Avoid drinking alcohol on an empty stomach or following exercise, as it may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. 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.

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.
