Does Fostemsavir Tromethamine Interact with Temsavir?
CDI records a unknown classification for Fostemsavir Tromethamine and Temsavir. The stored summary is: ( 7.3 ) 7.1 Potential for RUKOBIA to Affect Other Drugs Temsavir may increase plasma concentrations of grazoprevir or voxilaprevir to a clinically relevant extent due to organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1/3 inhibition [see Drug Interactions ( 7.3 )] . When RUKOBIA was coadministered with oral contraceptives, temsavir increased concentrations of ethinyl estradiol ( Table 3 ) [see Drug Interactions ( 7.3 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.2 Potential for Other Drugs to Affect RUKOBIA Coadministration of RUKOBIA with rifampin, a strong CYP3A4 inducer, significantly decreases temsavir plasma concentrations. Patients taking both medications should consult their healthcare provider before starting, stopping, or changing the dosage of either drug. This record was extracted from drug labeling through openFDA. NIH/NLM RxNorm is used for drug identities. The summary and severity classification are CDI's processed information, not a verbatim source quotation. Product, route, and patient circumstances matter.

If you are taking Fostemsavir Tromethamine and your doctor is considering prescribing Temsavir (or vice versa), make sure to:
- Inform your doctor and pharmacist of all current medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements

- Ask what symptoms to watch for that would indicate the interaction is causing problems
- Never stop or change either medication without first consulting your healthcare provider
