Interactions between your drugs

Major

ARIPiprazole apalutamide

Applies to: Aristada (aripiprazole) and apalutamide

Apalutamide may significantly reduce the blood levels of ARIPiprazole, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. Using apalutamide with ARIPiprazole may also increase the risk of an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious and potentially life-threatening, although it is a relatively rare side effect. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations during treatment with these medications, whether together or alone. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. 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.
