avir* ↓ telaprevir
↓darunavir
Concomitant administration of telaprevir and darunavir/ritonavir resulted in reduced steady-state exposures to telaprevir and darunavir. It is not recommended to co-administer darunavir/ritonavir and telaprevir.
fosamprenavir/ritonavir* ↓ telaprevir
↓fosamprenavir
Concomitant administration of telaprevir and fosamprenavir/ritonavir resulted in reduced steady-state exposures to telaprevir and amprenavir. It is not recommended to co-administer fosamprenavir/ritonavir and telaprevir.
lopinavir/ritonavir* ↓ telaprevir
↔ lopinavir
Concomitant administration of telaprevir and lopinavir/ritonavir resulted in reduced steady-state telaprevir exposure, while the steady-state exposure to lopinavir was not affected. It is not recommended to co-administer lopinavir/ritonavir and telaprevir.
HIV-ANTIVIRAL AGENTS: REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS
efavirenz* ↓ telaprevir
↓ efavirenz Concomitant administration of telaprevir and efavirenz resulted in reduced steady-state exposures to telaprevir and efavirenz.
tenofovir disoproxil fumarate* ↔ telaprevir
↑ tenofovir
Concomitant administration of telaprevir and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate resulted in increased tenofovir exposure. Increased clinical and laboratory monitoring are warranted. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate should be discontinued in patients who develop tenofovir-associated toxicities.
HORMONAL CONTRACEPTIVES/ESTROGEN
ethinyl estradiol*
norethindrone ↓ ethinyl estradiol
↔ norethindrone
Exposure to ethinyl estradiol was decreased when co-administered with telaprevir. Two effective non-hormonal methods of contraception should be used during treatment with telaprevir.
Patients using estrogens as hormone replacement therapy should be clinically monitored for signs of estrogen deficiency. Refer also to Contraindications (4) , Warnings and Precautions (5.1) , Use in Specific Populations (8.1) , and Patient Counseling Information (17.1) .
IMMUNOSUPPRESSANTS
cyclosporine*
sirolimus
tacrolimus* ↑ cyclosporine
↑ sirolimus
↑ tacrolimus
Plasma concentrations of cyclosporine and tacrolimus are markedly increased when co-administered with telaprevir. Plasma concentration of sirolimus may be increased when co-administered with telaprevir, though this has not been studied. Significant dose reductions and prolongation of the dosing interval of the immunosuppressant to achieve the desired blood levels should be anticipated. Close monitoring of the immunosuppressant blood levels, and frequent assessments of renal function and immunosuppressant-related side effects are recommended when co-administered with telaprevir. Tacrolimus may prolong the QT interval. The use of telaprevir in organ transplant patients has not been studied.
INHALED BETA AGONIST
salmeterol ↑ salmeterol Concentrations of salmeterol may be increased when co-administered with telaprevir. Concurrent administration of salmeterol and telaprevir is not recommended. The combination may result in increased risk of cardiovascular adverse events associated with salmeterol, including QT prolongation, palpitations and sinus tachycardia.
