Interactions of Tafero 25 MG

Interactions with other medicines

If you are using a Tafero 25 mg tablet along with anti-seizure medicines like carbamazepine, phenytoin, and phenobarbital, caution and monitoring of the dose are required. These tablets can lower the levels of Tafero tablet levels in the body leading to its reduced effectiveness in killing the virus.
Do not use P-gp inducers (e.g., rifampicin, rifabutin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, or St. John’s wort) along with Tafero tablets. The combination is expected to lower plasma concentrations of Tafero tablets, which may lead to loss of therapeutic effect.
Using different types of antiviral medicine such as Atazanavir along with Tafero 25 mg tablets will lead to a decrease in the levels of Atazanavir and an increase in the levels of Tafero tablets in the body. In such a case, either another antiviral, ritonavir, is added to increase the effectiveness of Atazanavir, or the toxicity of Tafero tablets is monitored.
Using an antiviral combination of Lopinavir and ritonavir along with Tafero tablets can cause an increase in the toxicity of Tafero tablets. Hence, the blood levels of Tafero tablets should be monitored.
