Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ritonavir sirolimus topical

Applies to: nirmatrelvir / ritonavir and sirolimus topical

MONITOR: Sirolimus may be systemically absorbed following topical administration. Theoretically, coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the systemic exposure of sirolimus, which is a substrate of the isoenzyme. Significant increases in systemic exposure have been reported when oral sirolimus was coadministered with potent and moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as azole antifungal agents, macrolide antibiotics, protease inhibitors, and some calcium channel blockers. No formal studies to evaluate drug interactions with topical sirolimus have been conducted.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if topical sirolimus is prescribed with potent or moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for systemic sirolimus adverse effects including immunosuppression, infection, hyperlipidemia, malignancy, and interstitial lung disease.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: nirmatrelvir / ritonavir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may modestly affect the bioavailability of ritonavir from the various available formulations. When the oral solution was given under nonfasting conditions, peak ritonavir concentrations decreased 23% and the extent of absorption decreased 7% relative to fasting conditions. Dilution of the oral solution (within one hour of dosing) with 240 mL of chocolate milk or a nutritional supplement (Advera or Ensure) did not significantly affect the extent and rate of ritonavir absorption. When a single 100 mg dose of the tablet was administered with a high-fat meal (907 kcal; 52% fat, 15% protein, 33% carbohydrates), approximately 20% decreases in mean peak concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were observed relative to administration after fasting. Similar decreases in Cmax and AUC were reported when the tablet was administered with a moderate-fat meal. In contrast, the extent of absorption of ritonavir from the soft gelatin capsule formulation was 13% higher when administered with a meal (615 KCal; 14.5% fat, 9% protein, and 76% carbohydrate) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ritonavir should be taken with meals to enhance gastrointestinal tolerability.

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.
