Closely monitor INR if a concomitant drug is a CYP2C9, 1A2, and/or 3A4 inhibitor or inducer. (Warfarin label, Drug interactions)
- Zafirlukastleukotriene receptor antagonistModerate
As zafirlukast is known to be an inhibitor of CYP3A4 in vitro , it is reasonable to employ appropriate clinical monitoring when these drugs are coadministered with zafirlukast. (Zafirlukast label, Precautions)
- Zaleplonsedative-hypnoticModerate
Drugs That Inhibit CYP3A4 CYP3A4 is a minor metabolic pathway for the elimination of zaleplon because the sum of desethylzaleplon (formed via CYP3A4 in vitro) and its metabolites, 5-oxo-desethylzaleplon and 5-oxo-desethylzaleplon glucuronide, account for only 9% of the urinary recovery of a zaleplon dose. (Zaleplon label, Drug interactions)
- ZiprasidoneantipsychoticModerate
Ketoconazole Ketoconazole, a potent inhibitor of CYP3A4, at a dose of 400 mg QD for 5 days, increased the AUC and Cmax of ziprasidone by about 35-40%. (Ziprasidone label, Drug interactions)
- Zolpidemsedative-hypnoticModerate
CYP3A4 Inhibitors Ketoconazole Ketoconazole, a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor, increased the exposure to and pharmacodynamic effects of zolpidem. (Zolpidem label, Drug interactions)
- ZonisamideanticonvulsantModerate
Inhibitors of P-gp (e.g., digoxin, cyclosporine) may decrease the efflux of everolimus from intestinal cells and increase everolimus blood concentrations. (Everolimus label, Drug interactions)
