Food & lifestyle
grapefruit juice
MajorMetabolism
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered ranolazine. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Because ranolazine prolongs QT interval in a dose-dependent manner, high plasma levels of ranolazine may increase the risk of ventricular arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and torsade de pointes.
What to do: Patients treated with ranolazine should avoid consumption of grapefruit juice and other grapefruit products if possible. Otherwise, the dosage of ranolazine should be limited to 500 mg twice a day.

Conditions
Conditions in which Ranolazine needs care, as documented in this source.
Liver Failure
MajorPlasma concentrations of ranolazine increased by 30% in patients with mild (Child-Pugh Class A), and by 60% in patients with moderate (Child-Pugh B) hepatic impairment. The use of ranolazine is contraindicated in patients with clinically significant hepatic impairment.

Kidney Diseases
ModerateIn patients with varying degrees of renal impairment, ranolazine plasma levels increased up to 50%, Caution is advised when used in patients with renal impairment. The pharmacokinetics of ranolazine has not been assessed in patients on dialysis.

Long QT Syndrome
ModerateRanolazine prolongs the QT interval in a dose-related manner. Caution should be exercised if used in patients with long QT interval, or using other QT- prolonging drugs.
