MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration of tovorafenib and drugs that interfere with platelet function or coagulation may potentiate the risk of bleeding complications. Major hemorrhagic events, such as tumor hemorrhage, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, intracranial tumor hemorrhage, and hemoptysis have been reported during tovorafenib therapy. In the safety evaluation of tovorafenib monotherapy in 137 patients with pediatric low-grade glioma harboring a BRAF alteration, serious bleeding events (Grade 3 or 4) were reported in 5% of patients, including a Grade 5 tumor hemorrhage in one patient.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of other medications that interfere with platelet function or coagulation should be considered cautiously in patients treated with tovorafenib. Close clinical and laboratory observation for bleeding complications is recommended during therapy. Patients should be advised to promptly report any signs and symptoms of bleeding to their physician. Refer to the product labeling for guidance on tovorafenib dosage adjustments in patients with Grade 2 to 4 hemorrhage.

naproxen esomeprazole
Applies to: Vimovo (esomeprazole / naproxen) and Vimovo (esomeprazole / naproxen)
Talk to your doctor before using naproxen together with esomeprazole. Using these medications together may affect the enteric coating of naproxen, causing the medication to be released too early in the body. This can make naproxen less effective. 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.
Drug and food interactions
esomeprazole food
Applies to: Vimovo (esomeprazole / naproxen)
Food may interfere with the absorption of esomeprazole. Esomeprazole should be taken at least one hour before meals and at the same time every day. When esomeprazole is given to patients receiving continuous enteral nutrition (tube feedings), the tube feeding should be interrupted for at least 1 hour before and 1 hour after the dose of esomeprazole. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. 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.
naproxen food
Applies to: Vimovo (esomeprazole / naproxen)
Ask your doctor before using naproxen together with ethanol. Do not drink alcohol while taking naproxen. Alcohol can increase your risk of stomach bleeding caused by naproxen. Call your doctor at once if you have symptoms of bleeding in your stomach or intestines. This includes black, bloody, or tarry stools, or coughing up blood or vomit that looks like coffee grounds. 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.
