Ask your doctor before using sirolimus together with temsirolimus. This can increase the effects of sirolimus. This can cause fever, chills, body aches, fast heart rate, breathing problems, cough, chest tightness, pale skin, easy bruising or bleeding, weakness, or pain or burning when you urinate. If your doctor prescribes these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use these medications together.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with temsirolimus may potentiate the toxicities of sirolimus. Temsirolimus is metabolized primarily to sirolimus in vivo, thus concomitant administration may result in additive adverse effects, including immunosuppression, renal impairment, and pulmonary toxicity.

MANAGEMENT: Concurrent use of temsirolimus and sirolimus should be avoided.
