Are there any drug interactions with Lonsurf (Trifluridine plus Tipiracil?

Lonsurf (Trifluridine plus Tipiracil) may interact with other medications, potentially affecting their efficacy or increasing the risk of side effects. Some notable drug interactions include:

  1. Warfarin or other anticoagulants: Lonsurf may increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant medications. Monitoring of blood clotting parameters may be necessary, and the dosage of anticoagulants may need adjustment.
  2. Fluoropyrimidines (e.g., fluorouracil): Concomitant use of Lonsurf with other fluoropyrimidines may increase the risk of toxicity, and caution should be exercised when combining these medications.
  3. Uridine triacetate: Uridine triacetate, used to treat overdose or severe toxicity from fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy, may interact with Lonsurf. Using them together may reduce the effectiveness of uridine triacetate.
  4. CYP2D6 substrates: Tipiracil, one of the components of Lonsurf, may inhibit CYP2D6 enzyme activity. Therefore, medications metabolized by CYP2D6, such as certain antidepressants (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine), may have altered levels when used with Lonsurf.

Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications, including prescription, over-the-counter, herbal supplements, and vitamins, that you are taking before starting Lonsurf. This helps in identifying and managing potential drug interactions effectively. Adjustments in dosages or the need for alternative medications might be considered to minimize the risk of adverse effects or reduced efficacy.
