Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

PACLitaxel vimseltinib

Applies to: paclitaxel and vimseltinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with vimseltinib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, involves decreased clearance due to inhibition of P-gp by vimseltinib. Based on model-informed drug interaction studies, coadministration of the P-gp substrate dabigatran with vimseltinib (30 mg twice weekly) is predicted to increase the systemic exposure (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of dabigatran by 2 to 3-fold. However, if dabigatran is administered 4 hours after vimseltinib (30 mg twice weekly), the AUC and Cmax are predicted to increase by only up to 1.3-fold. Clinical data are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of vimseltinib with P-gp substrates should generally be avoided. If coadministration is considered necessary, vimseltinib should be taken at least 4 hours prior to the P-gp substrate. The individual product labeling of the P-gp substrate should be consulted for further guidance.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

PACLitaxel food

Applies to: paclitaxel

Grapefruits and grapefruit juice may increase the blood levels and effects of PACLitaxel. This can increase the risk of side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, hair loss, muscle pain or weakness, nerve damage, 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. Contact your doctor if you experience paleness, fatigue, dizziness, fainting, unusual bruising or bleeding, fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, pain or burning during urination, vision problems, and/or numbness, burning or tingling in your hands and feet. You may need a dose adjustment and/or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. 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.

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.
