Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

tofacitinib oritavancin

Applies to: tofacitinib and oritavancin

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with oritavancin may decrease the plasma concentrations and therapeutic effects drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2D6. The proposed mechanism is increased clearance due to oritavancin-mediated induction of these isoenzymes. In a screening drug interaction study in 16 healthy volunteers, a single 1,200 mg dose of oritavancin decreased midazolam systemic exposure (AUC) by 18% and the urinary dextromethorphan-to-dextrorphan ratio by 31%, indicating weak induction of CYP450 3A4 and 2D6, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when oritavancin used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or 2D6, particularly sensitive substrates or those for which minimal concentration changes may lead to therapeutic failure. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever oritavancin is added to or withdrawn from therapy. Individual product labeling for the CYP450 3A4 and/or 2D6 substrate(s) should be consulted for further guidance.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

tofacitinib food

Applies to: tofacitinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of tofacitinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. The extent and clinical significance are unknown. Moreover, pharmacokinetic alterations associated with interactions involving grapefruit juice are often subject to a high degree of interpatient variability.

MANAGEMENT: Until more information is available, some authorities recommend avoiding consumption of grapefruit juice during tofacitinib therapy (Canada). Patients receiving tofacitinib therapy who ingest grapefruits or grapefruit juice should be monitored for adverse effects and undue fluctuations in plasma drug levels.

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.
