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:

Serum concentrations and effects of medications that are metabolized by the 3A4 enzymatic pathways may theoretically be elevated in patients receiving delavirdine. The mechanism is inhibition of these enzymes by delavirdine. The clinical significance is unknown. Monitoring for clinical and laboratory evidence of safety and tolerance is recommended. Dosage adjustments or alternatives may be needed if an interaction is suspected.
