Drug and food interactions
ramelteon food
Applies to: Rozerem (ramelteon)
GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of ramelteon. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration of ramelteon with or immediately after a high-fat/heavy meal may delay the onset of hypnotic effects. In study subjects, administration of a 16 mg dose of ramelteon with a high-fat meal decreased the peak plasma drug concentration (Cmax) by 22% and delayed the median time to reach peak plasma drug concentration (Tmax) by approximately 45 minutes compared to administration in a fasted state.
MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving ramelteon should be advised to avoid the consumption of alcohol. For faster sleep onset, ramelteon should not be administered with or immediately after a high-fat/heavy meal.
