When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug interaction with food or lifestyle.

Consumer:

Ceritinib may increase the blood levels and effects of nicotine. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience increased side effects. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with ceritinib may increase the plasma concentration and the risk of adverse effects of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 2A6 and/or 2E1. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, is decreased clearance due to ceritinib-mediated inhibition of CYP450 2A6 and 2E1.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if ceritinib is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 2A6 and/or 2E1, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring should be considered whenever ceritinib is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects.
