Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

ginger everolimus

Applies to: ginger / magnesium sulfate / pyridoxine and everolimus

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein may increase the blood concentrations of everolimus following oral administration. Everolimus is a substrate of both the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme and P-glycoprotein drug efflux transporter, thus their inhibition in the intestine can enhance the absorption of everolimus.

MANAGEMENT: The possibility of prolonged and/or increased pharmacologic effects of everolimus therapy should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein inhibitors, including adverse effects such as pneumonitis, stomatitis, infection, dyspnea, diarrhea, anemia, leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate whenever a CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Applies to: everolimus

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered everolimus. The mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein activity in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with everolimus should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice.

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.
