Guanfacine Tablets and Humatrope

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.

Somatropin may reduce the blood levels of guanFACINE, which may make the medication less effective in some cases. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes. 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. 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 inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of guanfacine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. Rifampin, a potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, has been reported to decrease guanfacine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 54% and 70%, respectively. A computer simulation suggests that efavirenz, a moderate CYP450 3A4 inducer, would reduce guanfacine Cmax and AUC by a similar magnitude.

MANAGEMENT: The possibility of diminished therapeutic response to guanfacine should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Pharmacologic response to guanfacine should be monitored more closely whenever a CYP450 3A4 inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the dosage adjusted as necessary.
