posaconazole has the potential to enhance the level or impact of intranasal dihydroergotamine intranasal by modulating the hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism
when both drugs are combined, there may be an increase in the QTC interval  
rifabutin: they may diminish the serum concentration of posaconazole
It may enhance when combined with oxycodone by affecting CYP3A4 metabolism
QTc interval is increased both by lenvatinib and posaconazole
the effect of posaconazole is increased by lorlatinib, by altering intestinal or hepatic CYP3A4 enzyme metabolism
it increases the effect or level of palbociclib by altering the intestinal or hepatic CYP3A4 enzyme metabolism
it increases the effect or level of ruxolitinib by altering the intestinal or hepatic CYP3A4 enzyme metabolism
it increases the concentration of QT-prolonging CYP3A4 substrates in serum
may increase the level of effectiveness through P-glycoprotein MDR1 efflux transporter
it may enhance the risk of QTc prolongation when combined with amifampridine
has a synergistic effect over brentuximab vedotin by showing altered intestinal/hepatic CYP3A4 enzyme metabolism.
it increases the QT-c prolonging effect with gilteritinib
