CYP3A strong enhancers of the small intestine may reduce the bioavailability of mitapivat
it may enhance the metabolism when combined with zuclopenthixol
It may enhance the metabolism when combined with dexamethasone
when both drugs are combined, there may be an increased metabolism of etoposide
when both drugs are combined, there may be an increased metabolism of vinblastine
when both drugs are combined, there may be a reduced excretion rate of topotecan and result in an elevated level of serum concentration
when both drugs are combined, there may be a decrease in the serum concentration of ugt1a1 substrates
it increases the concentration of P-Glycoprotein or ABCB1 substrates in serum
may diminish the serum concentration of UGT1A1 Substrates
may diminish the serum concentration of UGT1A1 Substrates
