Interaction entre Ritonavir et Tadalafil

Co-administration of ritonavir in patients on ADCIRCA: Avoid use of ADCIRCA during the initiation of ritonavir.

…lovastatin, simvastatin ○ Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTTP) Inhibitor: lomitapide ○ Non-opioid Analgesic (selective blocker of Na v 1.8 sodium channels): suzetrigine ○ PDE5 Inhibitor: sildenafil (Revatio ® ) when used for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension ○ Sedative/Hypnotics: triazolam, orally administered midazolam • NORVIR is contraindicated…

Use of PDE5 inhibitors for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH): Sildenafil (Revatio ® ) is contraindicated [see Contraindications ( 4 ) ] .

Particular caution should be used when prescribing sildenafil, tadalafil or vardenafil in patients receiving ritonavir.

The following dose adjustments are recommended for use of tadalafil (Adcirca ® ) with ritonavir: Co-administration of ADCIRCA in patients on ritonavir: In patients receiving ritonavir for at least one week, start ADCIRCA at 20 mg once daily.

Ritonavir (200 mg twice daily), increased tadalafil 20-mg single-dose exposure (AUC) by 124% with no change in C max , relative to the values for tadalafil 20 mg alone.

…Physicians should be aware that CIALIS for once daily use provides continuous plasma tadalafil levels and should consider this when evaluating the potential for interactions with medications (e.g., nitrates, alpha-blockers, anti-hypertensives and potent inhibitors of CYP3A4) and with substantial consumption of alcohol [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1 , 7.2 , 7.3 )] .

The dose of CIALIS for use as needed should be limited to 10 mg no more than once every 72 hours in patients taking potent inhibitors of CYP3A4 such as ritonavir, ketoconazole, and itraconazole [see Drug Interactions ( 7.2 )] .

In patients taking potent inhibitors of CYP3A4 and CIALIS for once daily use, the maximum recommended dose is 2.5 mg [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.7 )] .

CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, ritonavir) increase CIALIS exposure ( 2.7 , 5.10 , 7.2 ) requiring dose adjustment: CIALIS for use as needed: no more than 10 mg every 72 hours CIALIS for once daily use: dose not to exceed 2.5 mg CYP3A4 inducers (e.g. rifampin) decrease CIALIS exposure ( 7.2 ).
