Check result:
Doravirine <> Humatrope
Relevance: 28.06.2023 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Somatropin may reduce the blood levels of doravirine, which may make the medication less effective in some cases. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of doravirine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 10 study subjects, administration of a single 100 mg dose of doravirine with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg once daily) decreased doravirine peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (C24hr) by an average of 57%, 88% and 97%, respectively, compared to administration of doravirine alone. When doravirine was administered with rifabutin 300 mg once daily in 12 study subjects, doravirine Cmax did not change, but AUC and C24hr decreased by an average of 50% and 68%, respectively. When doravirine 100 mg once daily was initiated following cessation of treatment with efavirenz 600 mg once daily in 17 study subjects, doravirine Cmax, AUC and C24hr decreased by an average of 35%, 62% and 85%, respectively, on the first day and 14%, 32% and 50%, respectively, 14 days later. The extent to which other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers may affect doravirine is unknown.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of doravirine should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.
