Detailed Information

Contraindications

**CONTRAINDICATIONS:** NOXAFIL is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to NOXAFIL or any component of the product. Although not studied _in vitro_ or _in vivo_, coadministration of the CYP3A4 substrates terfenadine, astemizole, cisapride, pimozide, or quinidine with NOXAFIL are contraindicated since increased plasma concentrations of these drugs can lead to QT prolongation and rare occurrences of torsade de pointes. Coadministration with the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors that are primarily metabolized through CYP3A4 is contraindicated since increased plasma concentration of these drugs can lead to rhabdomyolysis. Although not studied _in vitro_ or _in vivo_, NOXAFIL may increase the plasma concentrations of ergot alkaloids which may lead to ergotism. Coadministration of NOXAFIL and ergot alkaloids is contraindicated.
