Interactions between your drugs

Major

ritonavir conivaptan

Applies to: Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir) and Vaprisol (conivaptan)

CONTRAINDICATED: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of vasopressin receptor antagonists conivaptan and tolvaptan, both of which are almost exclusively metabolized by the isoenzyme. According to the product labeling, administration of oral conivaptan 10 mg in combination with 200 mg of the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole resulted in 4- and 11-fold increases in conivaptan peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC), respectively, compared to administration alone. Similarly, when a single 30 mg oral dose of tolvaptan was administered to 19 healthy volunteers following pretreatment with ketoconazole 200 mg/day for 3 days, tolvaptan Cmax increased by 3.5-fold and AUC increased by 5.4-fold, although 24-hour urine output increased by just 1.3-fold due to the saturable nature of tolvaptan's effect on urinary excretion rate.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of conivaptan or tolvaptan with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors is considered contraindicated. Some authorities recommend avoiding concomitant use of conivaptan or tolvaptan during and for 2 weeks after treatment with itraconazole.

Moderate

conivaptan paritaprevir

Applies to: Vaprisol (conivaptan) and Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir)

MONITOR: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of paritaprevir, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 12 study subjects, ketoconazole 400 mg given once daily increased single-dose paritaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 37% and 98%, respectively. The risk of hyperbilirubinemia may be increased, as paritaprevir can cause elevations in indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin via inhibition of OATP1B1/1B3.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if paritaprevir is prescribed in combination with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of hepatotoxicity (i.e., ALT and bilirubin elevations).

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / 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.

paritaprevir food

Applies to: Technivie (ombitasvir / paritaprevir / ritonavir)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir. Relative to fasting conditions, administration of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir with a moderate-fat meal (approximately 600 Kcal; 20% to 30% calories from fat) increased the mean systemic exposure (AUC) by 82%, 211%, 49%, and 30%, respectively. Relative to fasting conditions, administration of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir with a high-fat meal (approximately 900 Kcal; with 60% calories from fat) increased the mean AUC by 76%, 180%, 44%, and 22%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir plus dasabuvir should always be administered with a meal. The fat or calorie content does not matter.

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.
