Erlotinib 150mg, Oral tablet
• Interaction: Tobacco• Severity: Major• Notes for Consumers: Do not smoke or use tobacco products while taking this medication. When used together, your medication may not work as well for you.• Notes for Professionals: Advise patients to avoid smoking tobacco while taking erlotinib and communicate any changes in smoking status during erlotinib treatment. For patients that continue smoking or begin smoking while taking erlotinib, increase the dose of erlotinib by 50 mg increments at 2-week intervals to a maximum of 300 mg/day. Immediately reduce the dose of erlotinib to the recommended dose upon cessation of smoking. Erlotinib is partially metabolized by CYP1A2; smoking tobacco induces CYP1A2. In a single-dose pharmacokinetics trial in healthy volunteers, cigarette smoking decreased the overall exposure of erlotinib by 64% (95% CI: 46% to 76%) in current smokers compared with former/never smokers. In a separate study of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), steady-state trough concentrations of erlotinib were approximately 2-fold less in current smokers compared with former/never smokers.
