Humatrope <> Tofacitinib Tablets
Relevance: 17.05.2022 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

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:

Somatropin may reduce the blood levels of tofacitinib, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes during treatment with these medications. 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.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with moderate inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of tofacitinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction may result in loss of or reduced clinical response; however, the extent to which these medications interact with tofacitinib has not been established. In study subjects, administration with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin decreased tofacitinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 74% and 84%, respectively, compared to administration of tofacitinib alone.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if tofacitinib is to be used in combination with moderate CYP450 3A4 inducers. Alternative agents with no or minimal CYP450 3A4 induction potential are recommended when possible.
