Gilteritinib Fumarate and Prestalia

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.

AmLODIPine may increase the blood levels of gilteritinib in some patients. High levels of gilteritinib can increase the risk of an irregular heart rhythm that may be serious and potentially life-threatening, although it is a relatively rare side effect. You may be more susceptible if you have a heart condition called congenital long QT syndrome, other cardiac diseases, conduction abnormalities, or electrolyte disturbances (for example, magnesium or potassium loss due to severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting). The risk and/or severity of other side effects may also increase, including nausea, vomiting, decreased appetite, constipation, diarrhea, mouth sores, rash, muscle and joint pain, shortness of breath, cough, swelling of arms or legs, fever, infections, liver or kidney problems, inflammation of the pancreas, and low blood pressure. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. 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. You should seek immediate medical attention if you develop sudden dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations during treatment with gilteritinib. 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.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of gilteritinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When gilteritinib was coadministered with itraconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, gilteritinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 20% and 120%, respectively, compared to administration of gilteritinib alone. Gilteritinib Cmax and AUC increased by approximately 16% and 40%, respectively, when coadministered with fluconazole, a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when gilteritinib is used with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for adverse effects such as QT interval prolongation, pancreatitis, liver transaminase and bilirubin elevations, edema, infections and stomatitis, and the gilteritinib dosage adjusted as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.
