Interactions between your drugs
bosutinib tezacaftor
Applies to: bosutinib, Alyftrek (deutivacaftor / tezacaftor / vanzacaftor)
MONITOR: Coadministration with tezacaftor and/or deutivacaftor may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. The mechanism is decreased clearance via inhibition of the transporter by tezacaftor and/or deutivacaftor. In study subjects, digoxin (single 0.5 mg dose) systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.3-fold when it was administered with tezacaftor 25 mg and ivacaftor 50 mg daily. No pharmacokinetic data are available for deutivacaftor, but increased exposures of certain P-gp substrates are expected according to prescribing information.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when tezacaftor and/or deutivacaftor are used with drugs that are P-gp substrates, particularly those where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse reactions.

Drug and food interactions
bosutinib food
Applies to: bosutinib
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of bosutinib. When given with a high-fat meal, bosutinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.8- and 1.7-fold, respectively.
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice is likely to increase the plasma concentrations of bosutinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. However, the interaction has not been studied. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.
MANAGEMENT: Bosutinib should be administered with a meal. The consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and supplements that contain grapefruit extract should be avoided.

tezacaftor food
Applies to: Alyftrek (deutivacaftor / tezacaftor / vanzacaftor)
GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of tezacaftor, deutivacaftor, and vanzacaftor. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation- dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. The risk and/or severity of serious side effects such as liver damage may be increased.
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with fat-containing food may increase the oral bioavailability of vanzacaftor and deutivacaftor. Administration with a fat containing meal increased vanzacaftor systemic exposure (AUC) by 4- (low-fat meal) to 6- (high-fat meal) fold. While deutivacaftor AUC increased approximately 3- (low-fat meal) to 4- (high-fat meal) fold, relative to administration in a fasting state. Tezacaftor exposure is not significantly affected by administration of fat-containing foods.
MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with tezacaftor, deutivacaftor, vanzacaftor -containing medications should avoid consumption of grapefruit juice and any food that contains grapefruit. To improve absorption, patients should be advised to take vanzacaftor and/or deutivacaftor containing medications with fat-containing foods such as eggs, avocados, nuts, meat, butter, peanut butter, cheese pizza, and whole-milk dairy products at approximately the same time of the day. A typical cystic fibrosis diet will satisfy this requirement.
