Opicaponeinteractions

opicapone 50 MG Oral Capsule [Ongentys]

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

7.1 Non-Selective

Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) Inhibitors Both ONGENTYS and non-selective MAO inhibitors (e.g., phenelzine, isocarboxazid, and tranylcypromine) inhibit catecholamine metabolism, leading to increased levels of catecholamines. Concomitant use may increase the risk of possible arrhythmias, increased heart rate, and excessive changes in blood pressure. Concomitant use of ONGENTYS with non-selective MAO inhibitors is contraindicated. Selective MAO-B inhibitors can be used concomitantly with ONGENTYS.

7.2 Effect of ONGENTYS on

Other Drugs Drugs Metabolized by Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) Concomitant use of ONGENTYS with drugs metabolized by COMT may affect the pharmacokinetics of those drugs, which may increase the risk of possible arrhythmias, increased heart rate, and excessive changes in blood pressure. Drugs known to be metabolized by COMT should be administered with caution. Monitor for changes in heart rate, rhythm, and blood pressure in patients concomitantly treated with ONGENTYS and drugs metabolized by COMT.
