Assessment of Drug –Drug Interaction Risk Between Intravenous Fentanyl and the Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir Combination Regimen in Hepatitis C Patients Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Simulations

ConclusionThe administration of a therapeutic dose of GLE/PIB has very little effect on the pharmacokinetics of intravenous fentanyl. This negligible increase would not be expected to increase the risk of fentanyl overdose beyond the inherent risks related to the amount and purity of the fentanyl received during recreational use.
