Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

dexAMETHasone sirolimus protein-bound

Applies to: Decaject LA (dexamethasone) and sirolimus protein-bound

MONITOR: Coadministration of protein-bound sirolimus intravenous suspension with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the systemic exposure to sirolimus, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme and also a substrate of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. No formal studies evaluating the drug interaction potential of protein-bound sirolimus have been conducted. However, data are available for oral sirolimus coadministered with rifampin, a potent inducer of CYP450 3A4 and P-gp. When a single 20 mg dose of sirolimus oral solution was administered to 14 healthy volunteers following pretreatment with rifampin 600 mg daily for 14 days, mean sirolimus peak blood concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 71% and 82%, respectively. Reduced efficacy of protein-bound sirolimus may occur.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of protein-bound sirolimus should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

sirolimus protein-bound food

Applies to: sirolimus protein-bound

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of protein-bound sirolimus intravenous suspension with grapefruit juice may increase the systemic exposure to sirolimus. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of sirolimus by certain compounds present in grapefruit. However, grapefruit juice primarily inhibits CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall and may have limited effects on medications that are not administered orally. No formal studies evaluating the drug interaction potential of protein-bound sirolimus have been conducted. 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.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends avoiding grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with protein-bound sirolimus.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
