Interaction report

Wine and Aprocitentan

These two interact in 2 distinct ways. Each one is explained separately below.

Why Are There 2 Interactions?

Wine interacts with whole categories of medication. Aprocitentan falls into 2 of those categories, so it can interact with Wine in 2 different ways. We’ve listed each one below — your overall risk is driven by the most serious of them (Major).

Major

HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS

1 of 2

Why this applies to Aprocitentan

Aprocitentan falls under HEPATOTOXIC DRUGS — the group Wine interacts with.

Concomitant use of alcohol with hepatotoxic drugs may increase the risk of hepatotoxicity.
Concomitant use of excessive amounts of alcohol with potentially hepatotoxic drugs can increase the risk of liver damage.
Severity Major Likelihood Probable Evidence C

Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports..

Here's the thing to know about pairing wine with aprocitentan (Tryvio), your blood pressure medicine. This drug can be tough on the liver, and drinking alcohol adds its own stress on that same organ. When you combine the two, you may raise your chances of liver trouble more than either one alone would.

Watch for warning signs like yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, belly pain on the upper right side, unusual tiredness, or nausea that won't quit. An occasional small glass is different from heavy or regular drinking, which is where the real risk climbs. Since your doctor likely checks your liver with blood tests while you're on this medicine, it's worth asking them how much wine, if any, is safe for you.

ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS

2 of 2

Aprocitentan also falls under ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS.

Theoretically, concomitant use may interfere with blood pressure control.
Clinical research suggests that consumption of alcohol can increase both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However, acute alcohol intoxication can also increase the risk of hypotension and additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Probable Evidence B

Interaction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports..

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Aprocitentan (Tryvio) is a newer medicine used to lower blood pressure when other drugs haven't done enough. Mixing it with wine can pull your blood pressure in two different directions, which is what makes this tricky. Regular or heavier drinking tends to raise blood pressure over time, which can work against what your medication is trying to do.

On the flip side, a big drinking session at once can drop your pressure too low, and that effect can stack on top of your medicine. That may leave you feeling dizzy, lightheaded, or faint, especially when you stand up quickly. This is more about the alcohol itself than the grapes, so an occasional small glass is different from steady or heavy drinking. Please chat with your doctor or pharmacist about what's safe for you before making any changes.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Aprocitentan page

“Aprocitentan (Tryvio) is prescribed when blood pressure stays high despite other medicines, so anything that pushes your pressure around cuts straight to why you take it. Most of the 189 ingredients here do exactly that: some add to the drop and can leave you dizzy or faint, while others, tyramine among them, push pressure back up and…”

About Wine

What is Wine?

  • Social and relaxation use
  • Heart health (popular belief)
  • Antioxidant intake
  • Aiding digestion (traditional use)
  • Culinary flavoring

Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes and is not a true dietary supplement or medicine. Despite popular claims about heart benefits, the alcohol it contains carries real health risks, and no amount of drinking can be recommended to improve health. If you drink, do so in moderation, and avoid alcohol entirely during pregnancy or if you have certain medical conditions.

About Aprocitentan

What Is Aprocitentan Used For?

Brand name: Tryvio

Tryvio is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. It is specifically for people whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled on other blood pressure medications — it is always used together with at least one other antihypertensive drug, not on its own.

Lowering blood pressure helps reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as stroke and heart attack. Tryvio has not been studied as a standalone treatment and is not intended to replace other blood pressure medicines.
