Consumer:Consumer information for this minor interaction is not currently available. Some minor drug interactions may not be clinically relevant in all patients. Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.
Professional:There is currently no information in the medical literature regarding a potential interaction between nelfinavir and H2-receptor antagonists. Nelfinavir peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (Cmin) decreased by 37%, 36% and 39%, respectively, when nelfinavir (1250 mg twice daily) was coadministered with omeprazole (40 mg once daily 30 minutes before nelfinavir) for 4 days, presumably due to decreased solubility of nelfinavir as gastric pH increased. Although theoretically possible, it is not certain to what extent such an interaction may occur with H2-receptor antagonists, or whether it is clinically relevant. Caution may be advisable during coadministration.
