Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

PHENobarbital momelotinib

Applies to: phenobarbital and momelotinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers may decrease the plasma concentration and therapeutic effects of momelotinib. The proposed mechanism is increased metabolism of momelotinib via the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. However, momelotinib is metabolized by multiple pathways and so the clinical significance is unclear. In a phase I study, coadministration of multiple doses of rifampin (600 mg once daily) following a single dose of momelotinib (200 mg) reduced the Cmax and AUC of momelotinib by 29% and 46%, respectively, when compared with a single dose of momelotinib (200 mg) plus a single dose of rifampin (600 mg). No data are available for use with other, less potent inducers.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring for decreased momelotinib efficacy may be required when used concomitantly with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers. An alternative agent with less potential for induction should be considered if possible.
