Resumo

Rabeprazole raises gastric pH, and gefitinib solubility falls sharply at higher pH. Gefitinib exposure can drop substantially, which may reduce antitumor efficacy.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Gefitinib and Rabeprazole 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.

Gefitinib belongs to Oncology; Rabeprazole belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Higher gastric pH reduces gefitinib solubility and absorption.

O que fazer

Avoid the PPI if possible and use short-acting antacids or H2 blockers with dosing separated from gefitinib as per labeling. If a PPI is essential, take gefitinib 12 hours after the PPI dose and monitor tumor response.
