Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

somatrem tofacitinib

Applies to: Protropin (somatrem) and tofacitinib

MONITOR: Coadministration with moderate inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of tofacitinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction may result in loss of or reduced clinical response; however, the extent to which these medications interact with tofacitinib has not been established. In study subjects, administration with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin decreased tofacitinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 74% and 84%, respectively, compared to administration of tofacitinib alone.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if tofacitinib is to be used in combination with moderate CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative agents with no or minimal CYP450 3A4 induction potential are recommended when possible.

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.
