Interaction Details
Finerenone is classified as belonging to the following category: Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Green tea is unlikely to produce clinically significant changes in the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro and in vivo research suggests that green tea can inhibit intestinal CYP3A and induce hepatic CYP3A4 enzymes. However, this effect is unlikely to be clinically significant, as green tea does not appear to affect CYP3A4 activity in humans.

Green Tea Overview
Finerenone Overview
-
Finerenone is used to treat adults with chronic kidney disease (damage to the kidneys which may worsen over time and may cause the kidneys to stop working) due to type 2 diabetes. This treatment may reduce the risk of worsening kidney disease, needing to be hospitalized for heart failure, and life-threatening heart and blood vessel disease or a heart attack. Finerenone is in a class of medications called mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists. It works by blocking the activity of certain steroids made in the body that can damage the heart and kidneys.
