Interactions between your drugs
velpatasvir voxilaprevir
Applies to: sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir, sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir
MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) 1B1 and/or 1B3 may increase the plasma concentrations of voxilaprevir, which is a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters. When a single 100 mg dose of voxilaprevir was administered with a single 600 mg dose of the potent OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitor cyclosporine (n=24), mean voxilaprevir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 19.0- and 9.4-fold, respectively. Inhibition of P-glycoprotein (P-gp)- and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-mediated intestinal transport and CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of voxilaprevir may also contribute to the overall interaction with cyclosporine. The safety of such high levels of voxilaprevir has not been established.
MANAGEMENT: Caution and monitoring are advised when voxilaprevir is used with OATP 1B1 or 1B3 inhibitors.

velpatasvir lusutrombopag
Applies to: sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir, lusutrombopag
MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) may increase the plasma concentrations of lusutrombopag, which is a substrate of both efflux transporter proteins. Coadministration with cyclosporine, a P-gp and BCRP dual inhibitor, increased lusutrombopag peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 20% each compared with lusutrombopag administration alone.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if lusutrombopag is prescribed in combination with P-gp and/or BCRP inhibitors. Pharmacologic response to lusutrombopag should be monitored more closely following initiation, discontinuation, or change of dosage of the concomitant P-gp or BCRP inhibitor.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions
voxilaprevir food/lifestyle
Applies to: sofosbuvir / velpatasvir / voxilaprevir
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food enhances the oral bioavailability of sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir. Relative to fasting conditions, mean sofosbuvir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 64% to 144%, mean velpatasvir AUC increased by 40% to 166%, and mean voxilaprevir AUC increased by 112% to 435% when the combined sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir formulation is administered with food.
MANAGEMENT: Sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir should be administered with food.

Drug Interaction Classification
Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit. | |
Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances. | |
Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan. | |
