GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inducers of CYP450 3A4 may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of ticagrelor, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 14 healthy volunteers, administration of a single 180 mg oral dose of ticagrelor on day 12 of treatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg once daily for 14 days) decreased mean ticagrelor peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and plasma half-life by 73%, 86% and 67%, respectively, compared to administration of ticagrelor alone. Mean Cmax of the major active metabolite was unchanged in the presence of rifampin, but mean AUC decreased by 46% and plasma half-life by 50%. Inhibition of platelet aggregation (IPA) was also assessed in the study. Mean IPA at 12 hours was 87% with ticagrelor alone versus 63% in combination with rifampin; corresponding values at 24 hours were 70% and 15%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of ticagrelor with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers should generally be avoided.

Do not consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice during treatment with ivosidenib unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Grapefruit juice can increase the blood levels of ivosidenib. This may increase the risk of an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious and potentially life-threatening. You may be more susceptible if you have a heart condition called congenital long QT syndrome, other cardiac diseases, conduction abnormalities, or electrolyte disturbances (for example, magnesium or potassium loss due to severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting). Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. You may take ivosidenib with or without food, but avoid taking it with a high-fat meal, as this can also increase blood levels of the medication. An example of a high-fat meal includes 2 eggs fried in butter, 2 strips of bacon, 2 slices of white bread with butter, 1 croissant with 1 slice of cheese, and 8 ounces of whole milk (approximately 1,000 calories and 58 grams of fat). You should seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations during treatment. 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.
