Drug Interactions between etravirine and Prilosec
This report displays the potential drug interactions for the following 2 drugs:
- etravirine
- Prilosec (omeprazole)
Interactions between your drugs
omeprazole etravirine
Applies to: Prilosec (omeprazole) and etravirine
MONITOR: Coadministration of etravirine with a drug that is both a substrate as well as inhibitor of CYP450 2C19 and/or 2C9 may result in increased plasma concentrations of both drugs. Etravirine itself is also a substrate and inhibitor of CYP450 2C19 and 2C9. Theoretically, metabolism of etravirine and the coadministered drug may be mutually inhibited when used in combination. In 18 study subjects administered etravirine with the CYP450 2C19 inhibitor omeprazole (40 mg once a day), etravirine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 17% and 41%, respectively. The effect of etravirine on omeprazole pharmacokinetics was not reported.
MANAGEMENT: Because safety data regarding increased etravirine exposures are limited, caution is advised if etravirine is prescribed in combination with a CYP450 2C19 or 2C9 inhibitor. In addition, dosage adjustments may be required for the coadministered drug if it is also a substrate of CYP450 2C19 or 2C9.

Drug and food interactions
etravirine food
Applies to: etravirine
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Coadministration with food increases the oral bioavailability of etravirine. The mechanism is unknown. Compared to administration following a meal, the systemic exposure (AUC) to etravirine was decreased by about 50% when the drug was administered under fasting conditions. The types of meal studied (ranging from 345 kilocalories containing 17 grams fat to 1160 kilocalories containing 70 grams fat) did not appear to make a difference with respect to impact on etravirine bioavailability.
MANAGEMENT: Etravirine should always be administered following a meal.
