Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

rifAXIMin darolutamide

Applies to: rifaximin and Nubeqa (darolutamide)

MONITOR: Coadministration with darolutamide may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and 1B3. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, involves decreased metabolic clearance due to inhibition of OATP 1B1- and 1B3-mediated hepatic uptake by darolutamide. Increased adverse reactions of the OATP 1B1 and 1B3 substrates may result.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when darolutamide is used concurrently with drugs that are known OATP 1B1 and 1B3 substrates. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever darolutamide is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

darolutamide food

Applies to: Nubeqa (darolutamide)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral absorption of darolutamide. According to the prescribing information, bioavailability of darolutamide increased by 2.0 to 2.5-fold when administered with food. A similar increase in exposure was observed for the active metabolite keto-darolutamide.

MANAGEMENT: Darolutamide should be administered with food.

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.
