Consumer:Using isavuconazonium together with carBAMazepine is not recommended. Combining these medications can significantly reduce the blood levels of isavuconazole, the active component of isavuconazonium, which may make the medication less effective in treating your fungal infection.

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:CONTRAINDICATED: Coadministration with potent inducers of CYP450 3A4 may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of isavuconazole, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4 and 3A5 and subsequently by uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases (UGT). When multiple doses of isavuconazonium sulfate (prodrug of isavuconazole) were administered to healthy volunteers with multiple doses of the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg), mean isavuconazole peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 75% and 97%, respectively.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of isavuconazonium sulfate with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers is considered contraindicated.
