Summary

Regorafenib may inhibit the breast cancer resistance protein efflux transporter, which could raise systemic exposure to substrates of this transporter. Dipyridamole is not a well-characterised BCRP substrate, so any rise in its effect is theoretical and probably small.

What this interaction means in plain words

Dipyridamole and Regorafenib have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.

Dipyridamole belongs to Cardiovascular; Regorafenib belongs to Oncology.

Evidence level: Low

Why it happens

Possible inhibition of BCRP (ABCG2) efflux transport by regorafenib, reducing substrate clearance.

What to do

No empirical dose change is needed. Watch for hypotension, flushing or headache if dipyridamole effects appear exaggerated.
