Drug Interaction Report

Tirzepatide may affect the absorption of oral medications, as it can delay the emptying of stomach content into the intestines. This may impact blood levels and/or the time that it takes for quiNIDine to become most effective, if quiNIDine is being administered by mouth or directly into the stomach via a feeding tube. These effects are most apparent at the start of treatment with tirzepatide or after a dose increase and tend to diminish the longer that you are on a stable regimen of tirzepatide. Contact your doctor if you have any questions or notice a change in how any of your oral medications are working. 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.

Do not consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with quiNIDine unless specifically directed otherwise by your doctor. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice can interact with quiNIDine and increase the levels of quiNIDine in your body. If you are already consuming grapefruit products, do not increase or decrease the amount of these products in your diet without first talking to your doctor.

Tirzepatide may affect the absorption of other medications that you take by mouth. In some cases, this may affect how well and/or how fast those medications work, or it may make no difference. Talk to a healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns, and contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes. 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.
