Jemperli interactions: Alcohol, medications, and other factors

It isn’t known for certain whether Jemperli interacts with other medications. The drug’s manufacturer did not look at interactions in clinical trials.

However, it is possible that new interactions may be recognized in the future. For example, people who’ve received Jemperli since it became available could report a suspected interaction.

Before you start treatment with Jemperli, tell your doctor and pharmacist which prescription, over-the-counter, and other medications you take. By sharing this information with them, you may help prevent possible interactions. (To learn whether Jemperli interacts with supplements, herbs, or vitamins, see the “Jemperli and other interactions” section below.)

If you have questions about drug interactions that may affect you, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

There are no known interactions between Jemperli and alcohol. However, your doctor may advise you to avoid or limit alcohol consumption during Jemperli treatment.

This is because drinking alcohol while taking the drug may worsen some of Jemperli’s side effects. For example, you may experience worsened fatigue, nausea, or vomiting.

In addition, consuming large amounts of alcohol can cause liver damage. Jemperli may cause hepatitis (liver inflammation) as a side effect. Drinking large amounts of alcohol during Jemperli treatment may worsen this liver condition.

If you have questions about drinking alcohol during Jemperli treatment, talk with your doctor.

JEMPERLI INTERACTION AND CANNABIS OR CBD

Cannabis (often called marijuana) and cannabis products, such as cannabidiol (CBD), have not been specifically reported to interact with Jemperli. However, as with any drug or supplement, talk with your doctor before using cannabis in combination with Jemperli.

Certain medical conditions and other factors may increase the risk of interactions with Jemperli. Before you take this drug, be sure to talk with your doctor about your health history. Jemperli may not be the right treatment option if you have certain medical conditions or other factors affecting your health.

Health conditions or factors that might interact with Jemperli include:

• Chest radiation therapy: Jemperli may cause pneumonitis as a serious side effect. This risk may be increased for people who’ve had radiation therapy to the chest. Tell your doctor if you’ve ever had chest radiation therapy. They can recommend whether Jemperli should be part of your treatment plan.
• Stem cell transplant: Having a stem cell transplant before or after Jemperli treatment may result in serious transplant-related side effects. This risk applies to transplants in which stem cells are taken from a donor. If you’ve had a stem cell transplant or are planning to, talk with your doctor to determine whether Jemperli is safe for you.
• Organ transplant: If you’ve had an organ transplant, talk with your doctor before using Jemperli. The drug may increase the risk of transplant rejection (when the immune system attacks a transplanted organ). Talk with your doctor about whether Jemperli is the right treatment option for you.
• Allergic reaction: If you’ve had an allergic reaction to Jemperli or any of its ingredients, your doctor will likely not prescribe Jemperli. Taking the drug could cause another allergic reaction. You can ask them about other treatments that may be better choices for you.
• Breastfeeding: It’s likely not safe to use Jemperli while breastfeeding. If you’re breastfeeding or planning to, talk with your doctor before using Jemperli. They can talk with you about treatment options and ways to feed your child.
• Pregnancy: Jemperli is likely unsafe to use while pregnant. Because of how the drug works in the body, it may cause pregnancy loss. If you’re pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor before starting Jemperli. They can advise you on the right treatment plan for you.

You can take certain steps to help prevent interactions with Jemperli. Your doctor and pharmacist are key resources, so reach out to them before starting treatment. For example, you should plan to do the following:

• Let them know if you drink alcohol or use cannabis.
• Tell them about any other medications you take, as well as any supplements, herbs, and vitamins.
• Create a medication list, which your doctor and pharmacist can help you fill out.

It’s also important to read the Jemperli label and other paperwork that may come with the drug. The label may have colored stickers that mention an interaction. And the paperwork, sometimes called the medication guide or patient package insert, may contain details about interactions.

If Jemperli doesn’t come with paperwork, you can ask your pharmacist to print a copy. If you need help reading or understanding this information, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
