Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

butabarbital glecaprevir

Applies to: Pyrelle HB (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine) and Mavyret (glecaprevir / pibrentasvir)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir. Both antiviral agents are substrates of the P-gp efflux transporter, and glecaprevir is additionally a substrate of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. When a single 300 mg-120 mg dose of glecaprevir-pibrentasvir was administered to 12 study subjects following multiple dosing of the potent inducer rifampin at 600 mg once daily, glecaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 86% and 88%, respectively, while pibrentasvir Cmax and AUC decreased by 83% and 87%, respectively. Likewise, when a single dose of glecaprevir-pibrentasvir was administered to 10 study subjects following multiple dosing of carbamazepine 200 mg twice daily, glecaprevir Cmax and AUC decreased by approximately two-thirds, while pibrentasvir Cmax and AUC decreased by approximately one-half.

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

Drug and food interactions

Major

butabarbital food

Applies to: Pyrelle HB (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine)

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.

Moderate

glecaprevir food

Applies to: Mavyret (glecaprevir / pibrentasvir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir. Relative to fasting conditions, mean glecaprevir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 83% to 163% and mean pibrentasvir AUC increased by 40% to 53% when administered with moderate to high fat meals.

MANAGEMENT: Glecaprevir-pibrentasvir should be administered with food.

Moderate

hyoscyamine food

Applies to: Pyrelle HB (butabarbital / hyoscyamine / phenazopyridine)

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.

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.
