Can you take Romidepsin with Sodium phenylbutyrate / taurursodiol?

romiDEPsin has a moderate potential interaction with Arrhythmia.

The use of romidepsin may cause changes in ECG. It is recommended to consider cardiovascular monitoring of ECG prior to starting therapy and periodically during treatment in patients with congenital long QT syndrome, history of significant cardiovascular disease, and in patients taking anti-arrhythmic medicines or medicinal products that lead to significant QT prolongation. Confirm that potassium and magnesium levels are within normal range before administration of romidepsin. Care and close monitoring is recommended.

The taurursodiol in sodium phenylbutyrate / taurursodiol has a moderate potential interaction with Biliary Obstruction.

Sodium phenylbutyrate-taurursodiol contains taurursodiol, a bile acid. In patients with disorders that interfere with bile acid circulation, there may be an increased risk for diarrhea and patients should be monitored appropriately. Other conditions such as pancreatic insufficiency, intestinal malabsorption, or intestinal diseases that may alter the concentration of bile acids, may also lead to decreased absorption of this drug and its components. Consider consulting with a GI specialists with experience managing these GI disorders. Patients with disorders of enterohepatic circulation (e.g., biliary infection, active cholecystitis, etc.), severe pancreatic disorders (e.g., pancreatitis), and intestinal disorders that may alter concentrations of bile acids (e.g., ileal resection, regional ileitis, etc.) were excluded from clinical studies and there is no experience in patients with these conditions. Caution is advised.

Monitor reactivation in patients with evidence of prior hepatitis B infection as recommended and consider antiviral prophylaxis as clinically indicated.
