Drug Interaction Report

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with pretomanid may significantly increase the plasma concentrations and the risk of adverse effects of drugs that are substrates of organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3). The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, is decreased clearance due to pretomanid-mediated inhibition of OAT3. No clinical interaction studies have been conducted in humans with OAT3 substrates.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if pretomanid is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of OAT3, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring of the OAT3 substrate drug should be considered whenever pretomanid is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects.

Food can enhance the levels of pretomanid in your body. Pretomanid should be taken just after eating food. Do not take it on an empty stomach. This will make it easier for your body to absorb the medication. Swallow tablets whole. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablets.

Ask your doctor before using indomethacin together with ethanol (alcohol). Do not drink alcohol while taking indomethacin. Alcohol can increase your risk of stomach bleeding caused by indomethacin. 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.
