Interactions between your drugs
ezetimibe zavegepant
Applies to: ezetimibe, zavegepant
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with inhibitors of the organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B3 hepatic uptake transporter and/or the hepatic bile acid uptake transporter sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) may significantly increase the plasma concentrations and effects of zavegepant, which is a substrate of these transporters. When single-dose oral zavegepant (100 mg) was administered with the OATP 1B3 and NTCP inhibitor and strong CYP450 3A4 inducer, rifampin, at steady state, zavegepant peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 2.2- and 2.3-fold, respectively.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of zavegepant with OATP 1B3 and/or NTCP inhibitors should generally be avoided.
