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 prolongs the gastrointestinal absorption of selexipag. When taken with food, the time to peak concentration (Tmax) was delayed and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was approximately 30% lower. Selexipag systemic exposure (AUC) and that of its active metabolite did not significantly change, however. Selexipag may be taken with or without food. Tolerability may be improved when taken with food.
