Drug and food interactions
nadolol food
Applies to: nadolol
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with green tea may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of nadolol. The mechanism of interaction has not been established, but may involve inhibition of OATP1A2-mediated uptake of nadolol in the intestine by catechins in green tea. In a study with ten healthy volunteers, administration of a single 30 mg oral dose of nadolol following repeated consumption of green tea (700 mL/day for 14 days) resulted in decreases of 85% in nadolol peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration with water. The renal clearance of nadolol was not altered. Green tea also markedly reduced the effects of nadolol on systolic blood pressure.
MANAGEMENT: Based on available data, patients should be advised to limit their consumption of green tea and green tea extracts during treatment with nadolol.

trabectedin food
Applies to: Yondelis (trabectedin)
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of trabectedin. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of trabectedin with other agents known to induce hepatotoxicity such as alcohol may potentiate the risk of liver injury. Reversible, acute increases in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) have occurred frequently in patients treated with trabectedin alone or with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in clinical trials. In one U.S. trial with 378 patients, grade 3 or 4 elevated liver function tests (defined as elevations in ALT, AST, total bilirubin, or alkaline phosphatase) were reported in 35% of patients receiving trabectedin. ALT or AST elevations greater than eight times the upper limit of normal (ULN) occurred in 18% of patients, and drug-induced liver injury (defined as concurrent elevations in ALT or AST more than three times ULN, alkaline phosphatase less than two times ULN, and total bilirubin at least two times ULN) occurred in 1.3% of patients.
MANAGEMENT: Consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with trabectedin should be avoided. Excessive use of alcohol is also not recommended. Patients should be advised to seek medical attention if they experience potential signs and symptoms of hepatotoxicity such as fever, rash, itching, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, malaise, right upper quadrant pain, dark urine, pale stools, and jaundice. Monitoring of alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, AST, and ALT should occur regularly during trabectedin treatment in accordance with the product labeling, or as often as necessary when clinical symptoms develop. Trabectedin must not be used in patients with elevated bilirubin at the time of initiation of cycle. Elevated liver function tests should be managed with treatment interruption, dosage reduction, or permanent discontinuation depending on the severity and duration of abnormality.

MONITOR: Many psychotherapeutic and CNS-active agents (e.g., anxiolytics, sedatives, hypnotics, antidepressants, antipsychotics, opioids, alcohol, muscle relaxants) exhibit hypotensive effects, especially during initiation of therapy and dose escalation. Coadministration with antihypertensives and other hypotensive agents, in particular vasodilators and alpha-blockers, may result in additive effects on blood pressure and orthostasis.
MANAGEMENT: Caution and close monitoring for development of hypotension is advised during coadministration of these agents. Some authorities recommend avoiding alcohol in patients receiving vasodilating antihypertensive drugs. Patients should be advised to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position and to notify their physician if they experience dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, orthostasis, or tachycardia.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Concurrent administration with calcium salts may decrease the oral bioavailability of atenolol and possibly other beta-blockers. The exact mechanism of interaction is unknown. In six healthy subjects, calcium 500 mg (as lactate, carbonate, and gluconate) reduced the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of atenolol (100 mg) by 51% and 32%, respectively. The elimination half-life increased by 44%. Twelve hours after the combination, beta-blocking activity (as indicated by inhibition of exercise tachycardia) was reduced compared to that with atenolol alone. However, during a 4-week treatment in six hypertensive patients, there was no difference in blood pressure values between treatments. The investigators suggest that prolongation of the elimination half-life induced by calcium coadministration may have led to atenolol cumulation during long-term dosing, which compensated for the reduced bioavailability.
MANAGEMENT: It may help to separate the administration times of beta-blockers and calcium products by at least 2 hours. Patients should be monitored for potentially diminished beta-blocking effects following the addition of calcium therapy.
