- tucatinib
Interactions between your drugs
nafcillin tucatinib
Applies to: nafcillin, tucatinib
MONITOR: Coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers may decrease the plasma concentrations of tucatinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 2C8 and to a lesser extent by CYP450 3A4. When rifampin (600 mg once daily), a potent CYP450 3A4 and moderate CYP450 2C8 inducer, was administered with a single tucatinib dose of 300 mg, tucatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 40% and 50%, respectively. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers.
MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of tucatinib should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Applies to: nafcillin
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Certain penicillins may exhibit reduced gastrointestinal absorption in the presence of food. The therapeutic effect of the antimicrobial may be reduced.
MANAGEMENT: The interacting penicillin should be administered one hour before or two hours after meals. Penicillin V and amoxicillin are not affected by food and may be given without regard to meals.
