dct:title "DDI between Aprepitant and Corticotropin - Aprepitant may increase the serum concentration of Corticosteroids (Systemic). Monitor for increased effects of systemic corticosteroids when coadmininistered with aprepitant; corticosteroid dose reduction may be necessary. The manufacturer of fosaprepitant (a prodrug of aprepitant) states that oral dexamethasone doses should be reduced by 50% when coadministered with a fosaprepitant/aprepitant regimen to achieve dexamethasone concentrations similar to those achieved with dexamethasone alone. Dexamethasone doses used in clinical chemotherapy nausea/vomiting studies with aprepitant reflect this 50% decrease. Similarly, it is recommended that in order to achieve concentrations similar to those achieved with methylprednisolone alone, the intravenous methylprednisolone dose should be reduced by 25% and the oral methylprednisolone dose should be reduced by 50% when given together with a fosaprepitant/aprepitant regimen."@en ;
