b See Contraindications (4), Table 6 for orally administered midazolam. Benzodiazepines: midazolam (oral) triazolam ↑ midazolam ↑ triazolam Coadministration of REYATAZ with either orally administered midazolam or triazolam is contraindicated. Triazolam and orally administered midazolam are extensively metabolized by CYP3A4, and coadministration with REYATAZ can lead to the potential for serious and/or life-threatening events such as prolonged or increased sedation or respiratory depression [see Contraindications (4) ].
