Consumer:Ledipasvir may increase the blood levels and effects of etoposide. 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 ledipasvir may increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporters. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance in the intestine due to inhibition of P-gp or BCRP-mediated drug efflux by ledipasvir.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if ledipasvir must be used concurrently with medications that are substrates of the P-gp and/or BCRP transporters, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ledipasvir is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
