candida albicans extract tofacitinib

Applies to: Candin (candida albicans extract) and tofacitinib

If you are currently being treated or have recently been treated with tofacitinib, you should let your doctor know before receiving candida albicans extract. Depending on the dose and length of time you have been on tofacitinib, you may have a reduced response to the skin test. 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.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

tofacitinib food

Applies to: tofacitinib

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of tofacitinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. The extent and clinical significance are unknown. Moreover, pharmacokinetic alterations associated with interactions involving grapefruit juice are often subject to a high degree of interpatient variability.

MANAGEMENT: Until more information is available, some authorities recommend avoiding consumption of grapefruit juice during tofacitinib therapy (Canada). Patients receiving tofacitinib therapy who ingest grapefruits or grapefruit juice should be monitored for adverse effects and undue fluctuations in plasma drug levels.
