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:

The coadministration of esomeprazole and drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 2C19 enzymatic pathway may result in elevated plasma concentrations of those drugs. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to competitive inhibition of CYP450 2C19 activity by esomeprazole. The clinical significance of this potential interaction, if any, is unknown. Caution is advised if esomeprazole is used concomitantly with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 2C19, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range.
