Maraviroc and PCE Dispertab

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.

Erythromycin may increase the blood levels of maraviroc. 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.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme and/or P-glycoprotein efflux transporter may increase the plasma concentrations of maraviroc, which is a substrate of both. According to the product labeling, administration of maraviroc (100 mg twice a day) with the potent CYP450 3A4/P-glycoprotein inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg once a day) increased the mean maraviroc peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 3.5- and 5-fold, respectively, compared to administration alone. When the same dosage of maraviroc was administered with ritonavir (100 mg twice a day), maraviroc Cmax increased by nearly 1.3-fold and AUC by 2.6-fold. An even greater increase of nearly 5-fold in Cmax and 10-fold in AUC was observed during coadministration of maraviroc and saquinavir/ritonavir (1000 mg/100 mg twice a day). At 300 mg twice a day, mean maraviroc Cmax increased by approximately 2-fold and AUC by 3.6-fold during coadministration with atazanavir (400 mg once a day). When the same dosage of maraviroc was given with atazanavir/ritonavir (300 mg/100 mg once a day), maraviroc Cmax increased by 2.7-fold and AUC increased by nearly 5-fold. During coadministration with lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/100 mg twice a day), maraviroc Cmax and AUC increased by 2-fold and 4-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when maraviroc is used with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein. Dosage adjustment for maraviroc may be necessary if an interaction is suspected.
