Sintesi

Apalutamide is a weak CYP2C9 inducer and induces other clearance pathways. It may lower fluvastatin exposure, which is mainly cleared by CYP2C9, and so weaken its lipid-lowering effect.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Apalutamide and Fluvastatin 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.

Apalutamide belongs to Endocrine; Fluvastatin belongs to Cardiovascular.

Livello di evidenza: Moderate

Perché avviene

Apalutamide induces CYP2C9 and weakly induces transporters, increasing fluvastatin clearance.

Cosa fare

Monitor the lipid profile after starting or stopping apalutamide. Increase the fluvastatin dose or switch statin if efficacy is lost.
