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:

Coadministration with eltrombopag may alter the pharmacokinetics of boceprevir. In 28 healthy volunteers administered a single 200 mg dose of eltrombopag during repeated dosing of boceprevir 800 mg three times daily, boceprevir systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by just 4% but trough plasma level (Cmin) decreased by 32%. The clinical significance is unknown, although the potential for more substantial changes during multiple dosing of eltrombopag cannot be ruled out. Boceprevir did not have an effect on the plasma concentrations of eltrombopag.
