Potential Interaction
Rilpivirine (RPV)
Citalopram
Quality of Evidence: Very Low
Summary:
Coadministration has not been studied but based on metabolism and clearance a pharmacokinetic interaction is unlikely. Citalopram is metabolized by CYP2C19 (38%), 2D6 (31%) and 3A4 (31%). Rilpivirine at a dose of 25 mg once daily is unlikely to have a clinically relevant effect on the exposure of medicinal products metabolised by CYP enzymes. Rilpivirine has been associated with prolongation of the QTc interval at supra-therapeutic doses but these are unlikely to occur during coadministration with citalopram. However, given the known QT prolongation risk associated with citalopram, caution is recommended.
