Dabigatraninteractions
dabigatran etexilate 75 MG Oral Capsule
This is the interactions section of this product’s FDA label — what the manufacturer documented for this drug. It is not a check of your medication list, and a drug missing from it has not been cleared: licensed clinical databases list far more interactions than any single label does. Before combining medicines, ask a pharmacist, who can check everything you take at once and will do it for free.

Drug interactions
P-gp inducers: Avoid coadministration with dabigatran etexilate capsules
P-gp inhibitors in adult patients with CrCl 30 to 50 mL/min: Reduce dosage or avoid
P-gp inhibitors in adult patients with CrCl <30 mL/min: Not recommended
7.1 Reduction of
Risk of Stroke and Systemic Embolism in Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation in Adult Patients The concomitant use of dabigatran etexilate with P-gp inducers (e.g., rifampin) reduces exposure to dabigatran and should generally be avoided. P-gp inhibition and impaired renal function are the major independent factors that result in increased exposure to dabigatran. Concomitant use of P-gp inhibitors in patients with renal impairment is expected to produce increased exposure of dabigatran compared to that seen with either factor alone. In patients with moderate renal impairment (CrCl 30 to 50 mL/min), reduce the dosage of dabigatran etexilate to 75 mg twice daily when administered concomitantly with the P-gp inhibitors dronedarone or systemic ketoconazole. The use of the P-gp inhibitors verapamil, amiodarone, quinidine, clarithromycin, and ticagrelor does not require a dosage adjustment of dabigatran etexilate. These results should not be extrapolated to other P-gp inhibitors. The concomitant use of dabigatran etexilate and P-gp inhibitors in patients with severe renal impairment (CrCl 15 to 30 mL/min) should be avoided.
7.2 Treatment and
Reduction in the Risk of Recurrence of Deep Venous Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism in Adult Patients Avoid use of dabigatran etexilate and P-gp inhibitors in patients with CrCl <50 mL/min.
7.3 Prophylaxis of
Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism in Adult Patients Following Hip Replacement Surgery In patients with CrCl ≥50 mL/min who have concomitant administration of P-gp inhibitors such as dronedarone or systemic ketoconazole, it may be helpful to separate the timing of administration of dabigatran and the P-gp inhibitor by several hours. The concomitant use of dabigatran etexilate and P-gp inhibitors in patients with CrCl <50 mL/min should be avoided.
7.4 Treatment and
Reduction in Risk of Recurrence of VTE in Pediatric Patients The concomitant use of dabigatran etexilate capsules with P-gp inhibitors has not been studied in pediatric patients but may increase exposure to dabigatran.
