This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- Nubeqa (darolutamide)
- voriconazole
Interactions between your drugs
voriconazole darolutamide
Applies to: voriconazole and Nubeqa (darolutamide)
Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may increase the plasma concentrations of darolutamide, which is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and the efflux transporter. When darolutamide was coadministered with itraconazole, a dual P-gp and potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, mean darolutamide peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 40% and 70%, respectively, compared to administration of darolutamide alone. The interaction has not been studied with less potent inhibitors or lone inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 or P-gp. Caution is advised when darolutamide is used with CYP450 3A4 or P-gp inhibitors. Patients should be monitored more frequently for adverse effects such as fatigue, hypertension, neutropenia and abnormal liver function tests, and the darolutamide dosage adjusted as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food interactions
voriconazole food
Applies to: voriconazole
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral absorption and bioavailability of voriconazole. According to the product labeling, administration of multiple doses of voriconazole with high-fat meals decreased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 34% and 24%, respectively, when the drug is administered as a tablet, and by 58% and 37%, respectively, when administered as the oral suspension.
MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, voriconazole tablets and oral suspension should be taken at least one hour before or after a meal.

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.
