The concurrent use of oral contraceptives may increase the plasma concentrations of frovatriptan. According to the manufacturer, retrospective analysis of pharmacokinetic data from females across trials indicated that the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of frovatriptan are 30% higher in oral contraceptive users compared to non-users. The mechanism of interaction has not been established, and it is not known if hormonal contraceptives delivered by other routes (intravaginal, transdermal) may similarly affect the pharmacokinetics of frovatriptan. Regardless, this interaction is unlikely to be of clinical significance.
