Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

methylnaltrexone momelotinib

Applies to: methylnaltrexone and momelotinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration of momelotinib may increase the plasma concentrations of substrates of the organic cation 1 (OCT1) or multidrug toxin extrusion 1 (MATE1) transporters. Based on in vitro data, at clinically relevant concentrations, momelotinib is an inhibitor of OCT1 and its active metabolite, M21, may inhibit MATE1. However, clinical data are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if momelotinib is administered with sensitive substrates of OCT1 and/or MATE1. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring should be considered whenever momelotinib is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Individual product labeling for the coadministered drug may also be consulted for specific guidance.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions
