Drug–drug interactions in Case #2

Impact Action Mechanism
Drug–gene interactions
Carvedilol and CYP2D6 Major Monitor therapy CYPD6 rapid metabolizer status may increase metabolism of carvedilol
Warfarin and CYP2C9/VKORC1 Minor Monitor therapy Lower starting warfarin doses may be required due to reduced VKORC1 functionality
Drug–drug interactions based on CYP450 metabolism
Carvedilol and losartan potassium Moderate Monitor therapy CYP2C9 inhibitors (losartan) may increase the serum concentration of carvedilol
Diltiazem HCl and fluticasone and vilanterol Moderate Monitor therapy CYP3A4 inhibitors (diltiazem) may decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates
Losartan potassium and warfarin sodium Moderate Monitor therapy CYP2C9 inhibitors (losartan) may decrease the metabolism of CYP2C9 substrates
Non-CYP450 drug–drug interactions
Albuterol sulfate and carvedilol Major Avoid combination Beta-blockers may diminish the bronchodilatory effect of beta2-agonists
Carvedilol and fluticasone and vilanterol Major Avoid combination Beta-blockers may diminish the bronchodilatory effect of beta2-agonists
Allopurinol and warfarin sodium Moderate Consider modification Allopurinol may enhance the anticoagulant effect of vitamin K antagonists
Atorvastatin calcium and diltiazem HCl Major Consider modification Diltiazem HCl may increase the serum concentration of atorvastatin calcium. Atorvastatin calcium may increase the serum concentration of diltiazem HCl
Carvedilol and tamsulosin HCl Moderate Consider modification Beta-blockers may enhance the orthostatic hypotensive effect of alpha1-blockers
Furosemide and naproxen Moderate Consider modification Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents may diminish the diuretic effect of loop diuretics
Naproxen and warfarin sodium Moderate Consider modification Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (nonselective) may enhance the anticoagulant effect of vitamin K antagonists
