Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Coadministration with osilodrostat may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are metabolized by CYP450 1A2, 2C19, 2D6, and/or 3A4. Osilodrostat has been shown to be a moderate inhibitor of CYP450 1A2, a mild to borderline moderate inhibitor of CYP450 2C19, and a weak inhibitor of CYP450 2D6 and 3A4. In a pharmacokinetic study with 20 healthy volunteers using a single 50 mg dose of osilodrostat and a probe drug cocktail, osilodrostat increased the exposures to caffeine (CYP450 1A2 substrate), omeprazole (CYP450 2C19 substrate), dextromethorphan (CYP450 2D6 substrate), and midazolam (CYP450 3A4/5 substrate) by 2.5-, 1.9-, 1.5- and 1.5-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when osilodrostat is used concurrently with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 1A2, 2C19, 2D6 and/or 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever osilodrostat is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may interfere with the absorption of esomeprazole. The manufacturer reports that the area under the concentration-time curve for esomeprazole following a single 40 mg dose was 33% to 53% lower when administered after food intake as opposed to during fasting conditions.

MANAGEMENT: Esomeprazole should be taken at least one hour before meals. When administered to patients receiving continuous enteral nutrition, some experts recommend that the tube feeding should be interrupted for at least 1 hour before and 1 hour after the dose of esomeprazole is given.
