Interactions between your drugs
dexAMETHasone apixaban
Applies to: dexamethasone, Eliquis Sprinkle (apixaban)
Theoretically, coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may decrease the plasma concentrations of apixaban, which is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and the efflux transporter. When apixaban was coadministered with 600 mg/day of rifampin, a dual P-gp and potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, mean apixaban peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 42% and 54%, respectively. No data are available for use with other, less potent CYP450 3A4 and/or P-gp inducers.
