Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.

Professional:

Food does not appear to have clinically significant effects on the pharmacokinetics of elbasvir and grazoprevir. When a single 50 mg-100 mg dose of elbasvir-grazoprevir was administered to healthy study subjects with a high-fat meal (900 kcal; 500 kcal from fat), elbasvir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 15% and 11%, respectively, while grazoprevir Cmax and AUC increased by 2.8- and 1.5-fold, respectively, compared to administration under fasting conditions. According to the product labeling, elbasvir-grazoprevir may be administered with or without food.
