Opioid Antagonist naloxegol ↑ naloxegol Co-administration of PREZISTA/ritonavir and naloxegol is contraindicated due to potential for precipitating opioid withdrawal symptoms.
Sedatives/hypnotics: orally administered midazolam, triazolam ↑ midazolam ↑ triazolam Co-administration is contraindicated due to potential for serious and/or life-threatening reactions such as prolonged or increased sedation or respiratory depression.
Narcotic analgesics metabolized by CYP3A: e.g. fentanyl, oxycodone ↑ fentanyl ↑ oxycodone Careful monitoring of therapeutic effects and adverse reactions associated with CYP3A-metabolized narcotic analgesics (including potentially fatal respiratory depression) is recommended with co-administration. tramadol ↑ tramadol A dose decrease may be needed for tramadol…
…administered midazolam with PREZISTA may cause large increases in the concentrations of these benzodiazepines. metabolized by CYP3A e.g. buspirone, diazepam, estazolam, zolpidem ↑ sedatives/hypnotics Titration is recommended when co-administering PREZISTA/ritonavir with sedatives/hypnotics metabolized by CYP3A and a lower dose of the sedatives/hypnotics should…
From the Hydrocodone and ibuprofen (Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen) label · effective 2025-12-23
Cytochrome P450 3A4 Interaction The concomitant use of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets with all cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors may result in an increase in hydrocodone plasma concentrations, which may cause potentially fatal respiratory depression.
Monitor patients taking Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets and any CYP3A4 inhibitor or upon discontinuation of a CYP3A4 inducer for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation (see WARNINGS: Risks of Concomitant Use or Discontinuation of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitors and Inducers, PRECAUTIONS: Drug Interactions).
Risks of Concomitant Use or Discontinuation of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitors and Inducers Concomitant use of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets with a CYP3A4 inhibitor, such as macrolide antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin), azole-antifungal agents (e.g., ketoconazole), and protease inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir), may increase plasma concentrations of hydrocodone…
When using Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets with CYP3A4 inhibitors or discontinuing CYP3A4 inducers in Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets treated patients, evaluate patients at frequent intervals and consider dosage reduction of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets until stable drug effects are achieved (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION,…
Concomitant use of Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Ibuprofen Tablets with CYP3A4 inducers or discontinuation of a CYP3A4 inhibitor could decrease hydrocodone plasma concentrations, decrease opioid efficacy or, possibly, lead to a withdrawal syndrome in a patient who had developed physical dependence to hydrocodone.
