Interactions between your drugs
tacrolimus topical nirogacestat
Applies to: Protopic (tacrolimus topical), nirogacestat
Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.
MONITOR: Theoretically, coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations of topical tacrolimus. The proposed mechanism involves inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of tacrolimus, which is primary metabolized by this isoenzyme. However, systemic exposure from topical tacrolimus is reported to be minimal (less than 1 ng/mL) and so clinically significant drug interactions are not expected. Nevertheless, the possibility of an interaction cannot be ruled out.
MANAGEMENT: According to the manufacturer, caution is advised if topical tacrolimus is prescribed with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for systemic tacrolimus adverse effects including immunosuppression, infection, hyperkalemia, malignancy, nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and hypertension.
Drug and food interactions
nirogacestat food
Applies to: nirogacestat
Do not consume grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, or starfruit during treatment with nirogacestat. Doing so can significantly increase the blood levels of nirogacestat and increase the risk and/or severity of side effects such as diarrhea, liver problems, new non-melanoma skin cancers, electrolyte disturbances, and in women who can become pregnant, ovarian problems. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. 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.
