Interactions between your drugs

Major

saquinavir pemigatinib

Applies to: saquinavir and pemigatinib

Saquinavir may increase the blood levels of pemigatinib. This may increase the frequency and severity of serious side effects such as elevated phosphate levels in the blood (which can eventually lead to low blood calcium levels; calcium deposits in the skin, muscles, and other tissues; anemia; muscle cramps; seizures; and irregular heart rhythm), eye and vision problems, joint pain, mouth sores and inflammation, hair loss, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring 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.
