Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

zafirlukast tucatinib

Applies to: zafirlukast, Tukysa (tucatinib)

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C8 may increase the plasma concentrations of tucatinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When gemfibrozil (600 mg twice daily), a potent CYP450 2C8 inhibitor, was administered with a single tucatinib dose of 300 mg, tucatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.6-fold and 3-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Increased monitoring is advised if tucatinib is coadministered with CYP450 2C8 inhibitors. Dosage adjustments may be required based on clinical response and tolerance.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

zafirlukast food

Applies to: zafirlukast

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral absorption and bioavailability of zafirlukast. In two separate studies, one using a high-fat and the other a high-protein meal, administration of zafirlukast with food reduced the mean bioavailability by approximately 40%.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, zafirlukast should be administered at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals.

Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor 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.
Unknown No interaction information available.
