Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

olaparib omaveloxolone

Applies to: olaparib and omaveloxolone

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of olaparib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In a drug interaction study with 22 patients, mean olaparib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by approximately 71% and 87%, respectively, during coadministration with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin. Simulations using physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models suggest that a moderate inducer (efavirenz) may decrease olaparib Cmax by 20% to 30% and AUC by 50% to 60%. No data are available for use with other, less potent inducers.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of olaparib should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Major

olaparib food

Applies to: olaparib

Do not consume grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or Seville oranges during treatment with olaparib. Doing so can significantly increase the blood levels of olaparib and increase the risk and/or severity of side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, indigestion, loss of appetite, abdominal pain or discomfort, lung problems, and impaired bone marrow function resulting in low numbers of different types of blood cells. You may also be more likely to develop anemia, bleeding problems, or infections due to low blood cell counts. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

omaveloxolone food

Applies to: omaveloxolone

Omaveloxolone should be taken on an empty stomach, at least one hour before eating. Do not consume grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or any supplements that contain grapefruit extract during treatment with omaveloxolone unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Grapefruit juice may increase the blood levels of omaveloxolone. This may increase the risk of side effects such as changes in the amount of cholesterol in the blood and changes in liver and heart function tests. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

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.
