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.
Initiation of medications that inhibit or induce CYP3A may increase or decrease concentrations of PREZISTA/ritonavir, respectively.
Drugs that induce CYP3A activity would be expected to increase the clearance of darunavir and ritonavir, resulting in lowered plasma concentrations of darunavir and ritonavir.
Anticonvulsants : carbamazepine ↔ darunavir ↑ carbamazepine The dose of either PREZISTA/ritonavir or carbamazepine does not need to be adjusted when initiating co-administration with PREZISTA/ritonavir and carbamazepine.
