Resumo

Gefitinib needs an acidic stomach for adequate absorption, and acid suppression with a PPI lowers its exposure markedly. This may reduce anticancer efficacy.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Dexlansoprazole and Gefitinib can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Dexlansoprazole belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Gefitinib belongs to Oncology.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Increased gastric pH reduces gefitinib solubility and absorption.

O que fazer

Avoid PPIs if possible. If one is required, take gefitinib 12 hours after the PPI dose, though this may not fully prevent the effect.
