 Pre-treatment screening recommended
 Serious photosensitivity reactions have been observed
during combination therapy
 Use sun protection measures and limit sun exposure.
Consider discontinuation if a photosensitivity reaction
occurs.
 Rash has been observed during combination therapy
Discontinue OLYSIO if severe rash occurs.
 Caution in Sulfa allergic, simeprevir is a sulfonamide
 Hyperbilirubinemia also reported

Drug Interactions Considerations
 Simeprevir

Medications to Avoid with Simeprevir
Medication and or Class
Rationale for Avoiding with Simeprevir
Anticonvulsants carbamazepine,
oxcarbazepine,
phenobarbital, phenytoin
Antibiotics – clarithromycin,
erythromycin, telithromycin

Co-administration with these medications is likely to reduce
concentrations of simeprevir and lead to reduced simeprevir
efficacy. Co-administration not recommended.

Antifungals – fluconazole,
itraconazole, ketoconazole,
posaconazole, voriconazole

Antimycobacterials –
rifampin, rifabutin,
rifapentine

Co-administration with these medications is likely to
increase concentrations of either simeprevir or the
antibiotic due to CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp)
inhibition. Co-administration not recommended.
Co-administration with these medications is likely to
increase concentrations of simeprevir due to CYP3A4
inhibition from the antifungals. Co-administration not
recommended.
Co-administration with these medications is likely to reduce
concentrations of simeprevir and lead to reduced simeprevir
efficacy. Co-administration not recommended.
www.nynjaetc.org
Medications to Avoid with Simeprevir
Medication and or Class
Rationale for Avoiding with Simeprevir
Corticosteroids –
dexamethasone

Co-administration with dexamethasone is likely to decrease
concentrations of simeprevir and lead to reduced simeprevir
efficacy. Co-administration not recommended.
Propulsive – cisapride

Co-administration with cisapride may result in increased
concentrations of cisapride leading to potential cardiac
arrhythmias.
Herbal products – Milk
Thistle, St. John’s Wort

Co-administration with milk thistle is likely to increase
concentrations of simeprevir. Co-administration not
recommended.
Co-administration with St. John’s Wort is likely to reduce
concentrations of simeprevir leading to reduced simeprevir
efficacy, due to intestinal P-glycoprotein (P-gp) induction
associated with St. John’s Wort.

Sofosbuvir Key Points
 Sofosbuvir + ribavirin ALONE for 24 weeks
can be considered for GT1 if intolerant to
interferon
 No dosage recommendation can be made
in patients with severe renal impairment or
ESRD – up to 20 fold increase in SOF
metabolite
 Contraindications – Monotherapy, also
ribavirin birth defects

Sofosbuvir Key Points
 Adverse Events
 Headache and fatigue most common
 Anemia and insomnia, nausea when adding
peginterferon + ribavirin
 Additional info
 HIV/HCV coinfection studied, also data on
patients with HCC awaiting liver transplantation
studied
 Drug Interactions
 Intestinal PGP inducers likely to reduce levels –ie
