Pexidartinib and Ranolazine

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 information for this interaction is not currently available.MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter may increase the oral bioavailability of ranolazine, which has been shown in vitro to be a substrate of P-gp. Ranolazine can prolong the QT interval in a dose-dependent manner, thus increased plasma levels may potentiate the risk of ventricular arrhythmias including ventricular fibrillation and torsade de pointes. However, the interaction has not been evaluated in pharmacokinetic studies. Plasma levels of ranolazine (750 mg twice a day) were increased about 2-fold by the CYP450 3A4 and P-gp inhibitor, verapamil (120 mg three times a day), although the extent to which P-gp inhibition actually contributes to the overall interaction is unknown. MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if ranolazine is prescribed in combination with P-gp inhibitors. Pharmacologic response to ranolazine should be monitored more closely whenever a P-gp inhibitor is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the ranolazine dosage adjusted as necessary. Patients should be advised to seek medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, palpitations, or syncope.
