Drug Interaction Report

ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration with inhibitors of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 and/or 1B3 may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of atogepant, which is a substrate of the hepatic uptake transporters. When atogepant was administered in healthy study subjects with single-dose rifampin, an OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitor, atogepant peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 2.2- and 2.9-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: The recommended dosage of atogepant is 10 mg or 30 mg once daily when used concomitantly with OATP 1B1/1B3 inhibitors.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly enhances the oral bioavailability of simeprevir, although the type of food does not seem to matter. In healthy study subjects, administration of simeprevir after a high-fat, high-caloric (928 kcal) breakfast increased systemic exposure (AUC) by 61% and delayed absorption by 1 hour, while administration after a normal caloric (533 kcal) breakfast increased AUC by 69% and delayed absorption by 1.5 hours.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, simeprevir should be administered with food.
