Consumer:FluvoxaMINE may increase the blood levels and effects of esterified estrogens. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience increased side effects. 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 fluvoxamine may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to competitive inhibition of CYP450 3A4 activity by fluvoxamine.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if fluvoxamine must be used concomitantly with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever fluvoxamine is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
