Tofacitinib exposure is increased when coadministered with potent inhibitors of
cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 (e.g., ketoconazole) & medications that result in
both moderate inhibition of CYP3A4 and potent inhibition of CYP2C19 (e.g.,
fluconazole). Tofacitinib exposure is decreased when coadministered with potent
CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin). There is a risk of added immunosuppression
when Tofacitinib is coadministered with potent immunosuppressive drugs (e.g.,
azathioprine, tacrolimus, cyclosporine). Use of Tofacitinib in combination with
biologic DMARDs or potent immunosuppressants such as azathioprine and
cyclosporine is not recommended.
