Consumer:Methotrexate may decrease the effects of sapropterin. 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 during treatment with these 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: Drugs that affect folate metabolism may reduce the efficacy of sapropterin, which is a synthetic form of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). Folate antagonists can decrease tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) levels by inhibiting the enzyme dihydropteridine reductase.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if sapropterin is used in combination with folate antagonists. The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of sapropterin should be considered.
