Seconal Sodium and Xtandi

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.

Secobarbital may reduce the blood levels of enzalutamide, which may make the medication less effective in treating your condition. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring to safely use both 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.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 2C8 and/or 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of enzalutamide, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 2C8 to its pharmacologically active metabolite, N-desmethyl enzalutamide, and to a lesser extent by CYP450 3A4. However, the interaction has not been evaluated in vivo.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of enzalutamide with potent CYP450 2C8 and/or 3A4 inducers such as carbamazepine, lumacaftor, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone (partially metabolized to phenobarbital), rifamycins, and St. John's wort should generally be avoided. Moderate inducers such as bosentan, efavirenz, etravirine, modafinil, nafcillin, and nevirapine should also be avoided if possible. The extent to which other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers may interact with enzalutamide is unknown. Caution is advised if they are used with enzalutamide.
