Drug Interactions (FDA Label)

INTERACTIONS Orally administered CYP3A and/or P-gp sensitive substrates for which a small change in substrate plasma concentration may lead to serious adverse reactions: closely monitor for adverse reactions with concomitant use. ( 7.1 )

7.1 Effect of DAYBUE and DAYBUE STIX on Other Drugs CYP3A and/or P-gp Substrates Closely monitor patients when DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX is administered concomitantly with sensitive CYP3A and/or P-gp substrates where minimal increases in the plasma concentration of these substrates may lead to serious adverse reactions. Trofinetide, a weak inhibitor of CYP3A and an inhibitor of P-gp, increased the plasma concentrations of CYP3A and/or P-gp substrates <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]</span> , which may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with these substrates.

Contraindications

None. None. ( 4 )

Related Warnings

AND PRECAUTIONS Diarrhea: Most patients experience diarrhea during treatment with DAYBUE. Advise patients to stop laxatives before starting DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. If diarrhea occurs, patients should start antidiarrheal treatment, increase oral fluids, and notify their healthcare provider. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if severe diarrhea occurs or if dehydration is suspected. ( 2.4 , 5.1 )

Weight

Loss: Weight loss may occur in patients treated with DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. Monitor weight and interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if significant weight loss occurs. ( 2.4 , 5.2 ) Vomiting: Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia have occurred after vomiting in patients treated with DAYBUE. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if vomiting is severe or occurs despite medical management. ( 2.5 , 5.3 )

5.1 Diarrhea In Study 1 <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Studies (14) ]</span> and in long-term studies, 85% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced diarrhea. In those treated with DAYBUE, 49% either had persistent diarrhea or recurrence after resolution despite dose interruptions, reductions, or concomitant antidiarrheal therapy. Diarrhea severity was of mild or moderate severity in 96% of cases.

In Study

1, antidiarrheal medication was used in 51% of patients treated with DAYBUE. Advise patients to stop laxatives before starting DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. If diarrhea occurs, patients should notify their healthcare provider, consider starting antidiarrheal treatment, and monitor hydration status and increase oral fluids, if needed. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if severe diarrhea occurs or if dehydration is suspected [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ] .

5.2 Weight Loss In Study 1, 12% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced weight loss of greater than 7% from baseline, compared to 4% of patients who received placebo. In long-term studies, 2.2% of patients discontinued treatment with DAYBUE due to weight loss. Monitor weight and interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if significant weight loss occurs <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ]</span> .

5.3 Vomiting In Study 1, vomiting occurred in 29% of patients treated with DAYBUE and in 12% of patients who received placebo <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ]</span>. Patients with Rett syndrome are at risk for aspiration and aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia have been reported following vomiting in patients being treated with DAYBUE. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if vomiting is severe or occurs despite medical management <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration (2.5) ]</span> .
