Summary

Ivosidenib induces several CYP enzymes, and labeling flags CYP2C9 substrates as potentially affected. Celecoxib exposure may fall, which could reduce its analgesic or anti-inflammatory effect.

What this interaction means in plain words

Celecoxib and Ivosidenib can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Celecoxib belongs to Musculoskeletal; Ivosidenib belongs to Oncology.

Evidence level: Low

Why it happens

Ivosidenib induces CYP2C9 and other enzymes, increasing celecoxib clearance.

What to do

Monitor for loss of celecoxib efficacy and increase the dose within the labeled range if needed. Consider an NSAID less dependent on CYP2C9 if control is inadequate.
