Food Interaction
[Moderate] ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food increases the systemic exposure to both telotristat ethyl and its active metabolite, telotristat.
Following administration of a single 500 mg dose of telotristat ethyl (twice the recommended dose) with a high-fat meal, telotristat ethyl peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were 112% and 264% higher, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions.
The Cmax and AUC values for telotristat were also increased by 47% and 33%, respectively.
The in vitro inhibitory potency of telotristat towards tryptophan hydroxylase has been shown to be approximately 29 times higher than that of the parent drug.
