Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ritonavir voxilaprevir

Applies to: ritonavir and Vosevi (sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and/or 1B3 may increase the plasma concentrations of voxilaprevir, which is a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters. When a single 100 mg dose of voxilaprevir was administered with a single 600 mg dose of the potent OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitor cyclosporine (n=24), mean voxilaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 19.0- and 9.4-fold, respectively. Inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp)- and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-mediated intestinal transport and CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of voxilaprevir may also contribute to the overall interaction with cyclosporine. The safety of such high levels of voxilaprevir has not been established.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring are advised when voxilaprevir is used with OATP 1B1 or 1B3 inhibitors.

velpatasvir voxilaprevir

Applies to: Vosevi (sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir) and Vosevi (sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and/or 1B3 may increase the plasma concentrations of voxilaprevir, which is a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters. When a single 100 mg dose of voxilaprevir was administered with a single 600 mg dose of the potent OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitor cyclosporine (n=24), mean voxilaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 19.0- and 9.4-fold, respectively.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: ritonavir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may modestly affect the bioavailability of ritonavir from the various available formulations. When the oral solution was given under nonfasting conditions, peak ritonavir concentrations decreased 23% and the extent of absorption decreased 7% relative to fasting conditions. Dilution of the oral solution (within one hour of dosing) with 240 mL of chocolate milk or a nutritional supplement (Advera or Ensure) did not significantly affect the extent and rate of ritonavir absorption. When a single 100 mg dose of the tablet was administered with a high-fat meal (907 kcal; 52% fat, 15% protein, 33% carbohydrates), approximately 20% decreases in mean peak concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were observed relative to administration after fasting. Similar decreases in Cmax and AUC were reported when the tablet was administered with a moderate-fat meal. In contrast, the extent of absorption of ritonavir from the soft gelatin capsule formulation was 13% higher when administered with a meal (615 KCal; 14.5% fat, 9% protein, and 76% carbohydrate) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ritonavir should be taken with meals to enhance gastrointestinal tolerability.

voxilaprevir food

Applies to: Vosevi (sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food enhances the oral bioavailability of sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir. Relative to fasting conditions, mean sofosbuvir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 64% to 144%, mean velpatasvir AUC increased by 40% to 166%, and mean voxilaprevir AUC increased by 112% to 435% when the combined sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir formulation is administered with food.

MANAGEMENT: Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir should be administered with food.

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.
