Mizam 15 Midazolam Lapatinib
ModerateWhen Laparen (lapatinib) is taken with midazolam, which is a CYP3A4 substrate, the body is exposed to more midazolam. Over 24 hours, the AUC (the total amount of the drug in the blood) of midazolam taken by mouth rose by 45%. The 24-hour AUC of midazolam given through a vein rose by 22%. So Laparen can make midazolam stronger and longer-lasting, more so when midazolam is swallowed than when it is injected.
These medicines are often taken together with some care. Your doctor may change a dose, space them apart or check on you more often. Make sure your doctor and pharmacist know you take both.
