Interactions between your drugs
lusutrombopag tepotinib
Applies to: lusutrombopag, Tepmetko (tepotinib)
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 interactions
tepotinib food
Applies to: Tepmetko (tepotinib)
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of tepotinib. When tepotinib was administered after a high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150 calories from protein, 250 calories from carbohydrate, 500 to 600 calories from fat), tepotinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 2-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions.
MANAGEMENT: Tepotinib should be administered with food at approximately the same time each day.
