Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

rOPINIRole olaparib

Applies to: ropinirole and olaparib

MONITOR: Coadministration with olaparib may decrease the plasma concentrations and therapeutic effects of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 1A2 and/or 2B6. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, is increased clearance due to olaparib-mediated induction of CYP450 1A2 and/or 2B6.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if olaparib is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 1A2 and/or 2B6. Pharmacologic response and serum levels should be monitored more closely whenever olaparib is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Dosage adjustments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Major

olaparib food

Applies to: olaparib

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of olaparib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. In a drug interaction study with 57 patients, olaparib systemic exposure (AUC) was increased approximately 2.7-fold by the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole. Simulations using physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models suggest that a moderate inhibitor (fluconazole) may increase the AUC of olaparib by 2-fold. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to olaparib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as hematologic toxicity, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, dyspepsia, and abdominal pain or discomfort.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with olaparib should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, starfruit (carambola), and Seville oranges.

rOPINIRole food

Applies to: ropinirole

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

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.
