Résumé

Gemfibrozil roughly doubles selexipag exposure and greatly increases exposure to its active metabolite. This raises the risk of prostacyclin-type adverse effects such as headache, hypotension, flushing, nausea and diarrhea.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Gemfibrozil and Selexipag are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.

Gemfibrozil belongs to Cardiovascular; Selexipag belongs to Cardiovascular.

Niveau de preuve: High

Pourquoi elle survient

Gemfibrozil inhibits CYP2C8, which hydrolyzes/oxidizes selexipag and its active metabolite, reducing their clearance.

Conduite à tenir

Avoid concomitant use; choose another lipid-lowering agent. Labeling contraindicates strong CYP2C8 inhibitors with selexipag.
