Gleevec and Inrebic

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 information for this interaction is not currently available.MONITOR: Imatinib is a substrate of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme as well as a potent competitive inhibitor of the CYP450 2C9, 2D6 and 3A4 isoenzymes. Some drugs that are known inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 are also metabolized by one or more of the isoenzymes inhibited by imatinib. Theoretically, coadministration of imatinib with those drugs may result in mutually elevated plasma drug concentrations due to competitive and noncompetitive inhibition of CYP450 activities. MANAGEMENT: The possibility of prolonged and/or increased pharmacologic effects of imatinib, including serious adverse effects such as edema, hematologic toxicity and immunosuppression, should be considered during concomitant therapy, particularly with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, ritonavir, nefazodone, and erythromycin. In addition, clinical and laboratory monitoring for potentially increased pharmacologic effects of coadministered medications is recommended, especially those with a narrow therapeutic range.
