Summary

Sotorasib solubility is pH-dependent, and acid-reducing drugs can reduce its exposure, so efficacy could be reduced; effects with H2 blockers are modest.

What this interaction means in plain words

Ranitidine and Sotorasib 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.

Ranitidine belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Sotorasib belongs to Oncology.

Evidence level: Moderate

Why it happens

Ranitidine raises gastric pH, reducing the pH-dependent dissolution and absorption of sotorasib.
