Pharmacist Assessment Report

Teriflunomide: Known uses and market status in Australia

Summary

The TxGNN model’s candidates for Teriflunomide are all known uses, so there is currently no new predicted indication. The one candidate that can be traced to a source is relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, which is already supported by a licence in another country. This page therefore lists known uses only.

Cytotoxicity

Teriflunomide is an immunomodulator, not an antineoplastic drug, so this section does not apply.

Safety Considerations

  • Drug Interactions: The data compiled for this report list 100 interactions, with 20 shown. Most flagged are Major, including:
    • Corticosteroids (hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, betamethasone, budesonide, triamcinolone)
    • Antidiabetic agents (acarbose, pioglitazone)
    • Bupropion, acetylsalicylic acid, clarithromycin, minocycline
    • Chenodeoxycholic acid, oxandrolone, oxymetholone
  • Moderate interactions include alosetron, cimetidine, empagliflozin and sitagliptin. Minor interactions include zinc sulfate and zinc acetate.
  • Additional guardrails noted in the analysis: monitor for hepatotoxicity, avoid use in pregnancy because of teratogenicity, and use the accelerated elimination procedure when required. Haematological adverse effects are a recognised concern.

Product-specific warnings and contraindications were not available. Please refer to the TGA-approved Product Information (PI) for full safety information.
