Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

tacrolimus topical fosamprenavir

Applies to: tacrolimus topical and Telzir (fosamprenavir)

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations of topical tacrolimus. The proposed mechanism involves inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of tacrolimus, which is primary metabolized by this isoenzyme. However, systemic exposure from topical tacrolimus is reported to be minimal (less than 1 ng/mL) and so clinically significant drug interactions are not expected. Nevertheless, the possibility of an interaction cannot be ruled out.

MANAGEMENT: According to the manufacturer, caution is advised if topical tacrolimus is prescribed with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for systemic tacrolimus adverse effects including immunosuppression, infection, hyperkalemia, malignancy, nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and hypertension.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

fosamprenavir food

Applies to: Telzir (fosamprenavir)

Fosamprenavir suspension should be administered on an empty stomach in adults, but with food in pediatric patients to help the taste and compliance. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes after dosing the suspension, the dose should be repeated. Fosamprenavir tablets may be taken with or without food. 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.
