Moderate Food Interaction

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice is likely to increase the plasma concentrations of ponatinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. However, the interaction has not been studied. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.

MANAGEMENT: The consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and supplements that contain grapefruit extract should be avoided during treatment with ponatinib.
