ALERT: US Boxed Warning
Congestive heart failure and cardiac effects:

Itraconazole should not be administered for the treatment of onychomycosis in patients with evidence of ventricular dysfunction, such as congestive heart failure (CHF) or a history of CHF. If signs or symptoms of CHF occur during administration of itraconazole oral solution or capsule (65 mg [Tolsura]), reassess continued itraconazole use. If signs or symptoms of CHF occur during administration of itraconazole capsules (100 mg [Sporanox]), discontinue administration. When itraconazole was administered intravenously (IV) to dogs and healthy human volunteers, negative inotropic effects were seen.

Drug interactions:

Coadministration of a number of CYP3A4 substrates are contraindicated with itraconazole. Some examples of drugs that are contraindicated for coadministration with itraconazole are: Methadone, disopyramide, dofetilide, dronedarone, quinidine, isavuconazole, ergot alkaloids (eg, dihydroergotamine, ergometrine [ergonovine], ergotamine, methylergometrine [methylergonovine]), irinotecan, lurasidone, oral midazolam, pimozide, triazolam, felodipine, nisoldipine, ivabradine, ranolazine, eplerenone, cisapride, naloxegol, lomitapide, lovastatin, simvastatin, avanafil, ticagrelor, finerenone, and voclosporin. Coadministration with colchicine, fesoterodine, and solifenacin is contraindicated in subjects with varying degrees of renal or hepatic impairment. Coadministration with eliglustat is contraindicated in subjects that are poor or intermediate metabolizers of CYP2D6 and in subjects taking strong or moderate CYP2D6 inhibitors. Coadministration with venetoclax is contraindicated in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) during the dose initiation and ramp-up phase of venetoclax. Coadministration with itraconazole can cause elevated plasma concentrations of these drugs and may increase or prolong both the pharmacologic effects and/or adverse reactions to these drugs. For example, increased plasma concentrations of some of these drugs can lead to QT prolongation and ventricular tachyarrhythmias including occurrences of torsades de pointes, a potentially fatal arrhythmia.

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Adult

The renal dosing recommendations are based upon the best available evidence and clinical expertise. Senior Editorial Team: Bruce Mueller, PharmD, FCCP, FASN, FNKF; Jason A. Roberts, PhD, BPharm (Hons), B App Sc, FSHP, FISAC; Michael Heung, MD, MS.

Altered kidney function:

Oral: Initial: No dosage adjustment necessary for any degree of kidney dysfunction; adjust dose based on trough serum concentrations (Ref).

Augmented renal clearance (measured urinary CrCl ≥130 mL/minute/1.73 m2):

Note: Augmented renal clearance (ARC) is a condition that occurs in certain critically ill patients without organ dysfunction and with normal serum creatinine concentrations. Younger patients (<55 years of age) admitted post trauma or major surgery are at highest risk for ARC, as well as those with sepsis, burns, or hematologic malignancies. An 8- to 24-hour measured urinary CrCl is necessary to identify these patients (Ref).

Oral: Initial: No dosage adjustment necessary; adjust dose based on trough serum concentrations (Ref).

Hemodialysis, intermittent (thrice weekly): Not dialyzable (Ref):

Oral: Initial: No supplemental dose or dosage adjustment necessary (Ref); adjust dose based on trough serum concentrations.

Peritoneal dialysis: Not dialyzable (Ref):

Oral: Initial: No dosage adjustment necessary (Ref); adjust dose based on trough serum concentrations.

CRRT:

Note: Drug clearance is dependent on the effluent flow rate, filter type, and method of renal replacement. Recommendations are based on high-flux dialyzers and effluent flow rates of 20 to 25 mL/kg/hour (or ~1,500 to 3,000 mL/hour) and minimal residual kidney function unless otherwise noted. Appropriate dosing requires consideration of adequate drug concentrations (eg, site of infection) and consideration of initial loading doses. Close monitoring of response and adverse reactions (eg, cardiac, fluid-related issues) due to drug accumulation is important.

Oral: Initial: No dosage adjustment necessary; adjust dose based on trough concentrations (Ref).

PIRRT (eg, sustained, low-efficiency diafiltration):

Note: Drug clearance is dependent on the effluent flow rate, filter type, and method of renal replacement. Appropriate dosing requires consideration of adequate drug concentrations (eg, site of infection) and consideration of initial loading doses. Close monitoring of response and adverse reactions (eg, cardiac, fluid-related issues) due to drug accumulation is important.

Oral: Initial: No dosage adjustment necessary; adjust dose based on trough concentrations (Ref).

Dosing: Liver Impairment: Adult

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, use caution and monitor closely for signs/symptoms of toxicity.

Dosing: Older Adult

Refer to adult dosing.

Dosing: Pediatric

(For additional information see "Itraconazole: Pediatric drug information")

Dosage guidance:

Dosage form information: Oral formulations are not interchangeable. Generally, oral solution is the preferred formulation because of improved absorption (Ref). Oral absorption varies between patients and as a result, monitoring of serum concentrations is suggested to ensure adequate and nontoxic levels are achieved (Ref). Capsules are available as two unique formulations (Sporanox [100 mg] and Tolsura [65 mg]) that are not interchangeable; where capsule is an applicable dosage form, dosing is presented for the 100 mg capsule (eg, Sporanox).

Clinical considerations: Initial dosing recommendations presented; for most indications, dosing should be adjusted based on serum concentration monitoring.

Children and Adolescents: Oral: 3 to 5 mg/kg/day as a single daily dose or divided every 12 hours for 1 to 2 weeks; maximum dose: 200 mg/dose. Some patients may require longer treatment durations (Ref).

Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Pediatric

Nondialyzable. The manufacturer's labeling states to use with caution in patients with renal impairment; dosage adjustment may be needed. In adults, limited data suggest that no dosage adjustments are required in renal impairment; therapeutic drug monitoring should be utilized for dose adjustment (Ref).

Dosing: Liver Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, use caution and monitor closely for signs/symptoms of toxicity.

Adverse Reactions (Significant): Considerations
Cardiovascular effects

Itraconazole is associated with cardiovascular effects, including new or worsening hypertension, new or worsening heart failure (HF), prolonged QT interval on ECG , and torsades de pointes (Ref). Cardiovascular effects may result in hospitalization and/or death (Ref). Improvement occurs with treatment and/or discontinuation in most (but not all) cases (Ref).

Mechanism: Dose-related; not clearly established. Proposed mechanisms include mitochondrial dysfunction and negative inotropic effects (Ref).

Onset: Varied; HF reported 1 day to 7 months following initiation (Ref). Torsades de pointes reported a median of 9.5 days (range: 1 to 26 days) following initiation (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Higher doses (eg, >400 mg/day) (Ref)

• Hypertension or use of antihypertensives (Ref)

• History of HF or impaired left ventricular function (Ref)

• Cardiovascular disease (Ref)

• Valvular heart disease (Ref)

• Concurrent treatment with other medications known to be associated with QT-prolongation or concurrent interacting medications (Ref)

Hepatotoxicity

Azole antifungals, including itraconazole, may cause hepatotoxicity (ranging from mild, asymptomatic increased serum transaminases to hepatic failure) (Ref). Hepatotoxicity is predominantly cholestatic, but cases of hepatocellular damage have also been reported (Ref). If intervention is required, liver injury is generally reversible within ~2 weeks after dose reduction or discontinuation but may recur upon rechallenge (Ref).

Mechanism: Not clearly established; possible mechanisms include inhibition of CYP450 enzymes, leading to decreased metabolism/use of alternative pathways that are more hepatotoxic or a true hypersensitivity reaction (Ref).

Onset: Varied; most cases occur within the first month of therapy (but may occur at any time) (Ref). Most cases occur with long-term, continuous use; rare cases have been reported with prolonged, pulse therapy (>12 weeks) (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Trough concentrations (≥1 mg/L) (Ref)

• Preexisting liver disease (Ref)

• Concurrent hepatotoxic agents and drug interactions (Ref)

• Fungal infection located within the liver (Ref)

• Cross-reactivity among oral azole antifungals has not been consistently reported in patients with histories of hepatotoxicity (Ref)

Hypersensitivity effects (immediate and delayed)

Immediate hypersensitivity reactions have been reported and include urticaria , angioedema, anaphylaxis , and anaphylactic shock (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions have also been reported and range from an erythematous rash or morbilliform rash (Ref) to severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs), including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) (Ref). Other delayed hypersensitivity reactions include serum sickness-like reaction (Ref), fixed drug eruption (Ref), skin photosensitivity (Ref) and symmetrical drug-related intertriginous and flexural exanthema (SDRIFE) (Ref).

Mechanism: Non–dose-related; immunologic. Immediate hypersensitivity reactions (eg, anaphylaxis, urticaria) are IgE-mediated. Delayed hypersensitivity reactions, including rash and SCARs, are T-cell-mediated (Ref).

Onset: Immediate hypersensitivity reactions: Rapid; occur within 1 hour of administration but may occur up to 6 hours after exposure (Ref); anaphylactic shock has been reported after 2 weeks of itraconazole treatment (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions: Non-specific rash: Intermediate; occur within a week after initiation (Ref). Other reactions (including SCARs): Varied; occur after 7 to 14 days up to 3 months (Ref); in some patients, may occur within 24 hours after completion of treatment (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Cross-reactivity: Cross-reactivity among oral azole antifungals has not been consistently reported (Ref). Possible cross-reactivity between fluconazole and itraconazole has been suggested (Ref). However, lack of cross-reactivity has been documented between itraconazole and fluconazole, as well as between itraconazole and ketoconazole (Ref). In addition, no cross-reactivity was noted between itraconazole and voriconazole (Ref).

Hypokalemia/pseudoaldosteronism

Itraconazole is associated with metabolic-related adverse reactions, including hypokalemia , hypertension, and pseudoaldosteronism (Ref). Metabolic-related adverse reactions are often considered class-related effects, more often observed with itraconazole and posaconazole (Ref). Resolution occurs following discontinuation (Ref).

Mechanism: Possibly dose-related; hypothesized to occur primarily due to cortisol-induced mineralocorticoid receptor activation due to 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) enzyme inhibition (Ref).

Onset: Varied; generally within first 2 weeks of therapy but may occur later (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Higher doses (eg, 600 mg total daily dose) (Ref)

• Concurrent exposure to steroids (Ref)

Peripheral neuropathy

Itraconazole is associated with peripheral neuropathy, which often presents as bilateral polyneuropathy of the hands and feet (Ref). Itraconazole-associated peripheral neuropathy appears to be more common than posaconazole or voriconazole-associated neuropathy (Ref). Symptoms often resolve following discontinuation (Ref).

Mechanism: Unknown; hypothesized to be caused by the azole moiety (Ref).

Onset: Varied; median 3 months (range: 1 to 18 months) (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Concurrent calcineurin inhibitors, vinca alkaloids or other drug interactions (Ref)

Other possible risk factors:

• Higher drug concentrations, although may occur in patients with drug concentrations within the therapeutic range (Ref)

• Long-term therapy (Ref)

Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.

Canadian labeling: Additional contraindications (not in US labeling): Concurrent administration with apixaban, asunaprevir, domperidone, eletriptan, fesoterodine in patients with moderate to severe renal or hepatic impairment, rivaroxaban, or solifenacin in patients with severe renal impairment or moderate to severe hepatic impairment (capsule, oral solution); treatment of dermatomycosis (tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea corporis, tinea versicolor [pityriasis versicolor]) in women who are pregnant or intend to become pregnant (capsule).

Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• CNS depression: May cause CNS depression, which may impair physical or mental abilities; patients must be cautioned about performing tasks that require mental alertness (eg, operating machinery, driving).

• Hearing loss: Transient or permanent hearing loss has been reported. Quinidine (a contraindicated drug) was used concurrently in several of these cases. Hearing loss usually resolves after discontinuation, but may persist in some patients.

Disease-related concerns:

• Cystic fibrosis: Large differences in itraconazole pharmacokinetic parameters have been observed in cystic fibrosis patients receiving the oral solution; if a patient with cystic fibrosis does not respond to therapy, alternate therapies should be considered.

• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment; monitor liver function closely. Not recommended for use in patients with active liver disease, elevated liver enzymes, or prior hepatotoxic reactions to other drugs unless the expected benefit exceeds the risk of hepatotoxicity.

• Onychomycosis: Cases of heart failure, peripheral edema, and pulmonary edema have occurred in this patient population. The manufacturer recommends confirmation of diagnosis testing of nail specimens prior to treatment of onychomycosis.

• Renal impairment: Use with caution in patients with renal impairment; limited information is available; dosage adjustment may be needed.

Dosage form specific issues:

• Oral capsules (100 mg [Sporanox]): Absorption of itraconazole capsules is reduced when gastric acidity is reduced (eg, achlorhydria, acid suppressive therapy); administer with an acidic beverage (eg, non-diet cola) in patients with reduced gastric acidity and separate administration from acid suppressive therapy (refer to drug interactions section). Monitor for response.

• Oral capsules (65 mg [Tolsura]): Absorption of itraconazole capsules is increased when gastric acidity is reduced (eg, acid suppressive therapy). Monitor for adverse reactions; itraconazole dose reduction may be necessary.

• Oral solution: Only the oral solution has proven efficacy in oral/esophageal candidiasis; mucosal exposure may vary between the oral solution and capsules. Initiation of treatment with oral solution is not recommended in patients at immediate risk for systemic candidiasis (eg, patients with severe neutropenia). Oral solution contains the excipient cyclodextrin.

• Product interchangeability: Due to differences in bioavailability, formulations cannot be used interchangeably .

• Propylene glycol: Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; large amounts are potentially toxic and have been associated hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Zar 2007).

Other warnings/precautions:

• Appropriate use: Itraconazole should NOT be used for voriconazole-refractory aspergillosis because the same antifungal and/or resistance mechanism(s) may be shared by both agents.

Warnings: Additional Pediatric Considerations

Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; in neonates large amounts of propylene glycol delivered orally, intravenously (eg, >3,000 mg/day), or topically have been associated with potentially fatal toxicities which can include metabolic acidosis, seizures, renal failure, and CNS depression; toxicities have also been reported in children and adults including hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Shehab 2009).

Food Interactions

Capsule (100 mg [Sporanox]): Absorption enhanced by food and possibly by gastric acidity. Non-diet cola drinks have been shown to increase the absorption of the capsules in patients with achlorhydria or those taking H2-receptor antagonists or other gastric acid suppressors. Grapefruit/grapefruit juice may decrease or increase itraconazole serum levels. Management: Take 100 mg capsules (Sporanox) immediately after meals. Keep grapefruit/grapefruit juice consumption consistent; monitor for altered effects with concomitant use.

Capsule (65 mg [Tolsura]): Absorption increased when administered on an empty stomach; however, administration of Tolsura (2 x 65 mg capsule) with food results in exposure similar to those achieved when Sporanox (2 x 100 mg capsule) is administered with food. Management: Take 65 mg capsules (Tolsura) with food.

Oral solution: Food decreases the bioavailability and increases the time to peak concentration. Management: Take solution on an empty stomach 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals.

Reproductive Considerations

Use is contraindicated for the treatment of onychomycosis in patients planning to become pregnant. Due to the potential risk of congenital malformations, the manufacturer recommends that when used for the treatment of onychomycosis, patients who may become pregnant should use highly effective contraception during treatment and for 2 months following treatment. Therapy should begin on the second or third day following menses.

Pregnancy Considerations

Based on available data, an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes (major congenital malformations, or spontaneous abortion/stillbirth) has not been associated with maternal use of itraconazole in short courses; however, the risk of specific birth defects has not been adequately studied (Liu 2020). Congenital abnormalities (eg, skeletal, genitourinary tract, cardiovascular, and ophthalmic malformations; chromosomal abnormalities; multiple other malformations) have been reported during postmarketing surveillance; however, a causal relationship has not been established.

In general, all azole antifungals should be avoided in the first trimester. Itraconazole is specifically contraindicated for the treatment of onychomycosis during pregnancy. Although itraconazole is approved for the treatment of various fungal infections, when treatment of a systemic fungal infection is needed in pregnant patients, itraconazole should be avoided, especially during the first trimester in order to decrease the risk of potential teratogenic exposure (HHS [OI adult 2020]; IDSA [Chapman 2008]; IDSA [Galgiani 2016]; IDSA [Pappas 2016]; IDSA [Wheat 2007]).

Breastfeeding Considerations

Itraconazole is present in breast milk.

According to the manufacturer, the decision to continue or discontinue breastfeeding during therapy should consider the risk of infant exposure, the benefits of breastfeeding to the infant, and benefits of treatment to the mother.

Dietary Considerations

Capsule (100 mg [Sporanox] and 65 mg [Tolsura]): Take with food.

Solution: Take without food, if possible.

Monitoring Parameters

Liver function in patients with preexisting hepatic dysfunction, and in all patients as clinically indicated; renal function; signs/symptoms of heart failure; signs and symptoms of neuropathy.

For invasive aspergillosis (treatment or prolonged prophylaxis), guidelines recommend monitoring serum trough concentrations (IDSA [Patterson 2016]). Consider monitoring serum trough concentrations for other infections; itraconazole has a variable pharmacokinetic profile and high concentrations may increase the risk of adverse events (Lestner 2009; MSG-ERC [Johnson 2020]).

Reference Range

Invasive aspergillosis:

Timing of concentrations: Obtain trough after steady state has been reached (4 to 7 days after therapy initiation); the need for continued or repeat monitoring is a patient specific decision influenced by many factors (eg, infection severity, cost, assay availability) (IDSA [Patterson 2016]).

Recommended range: Most experts recommend dosing to achieve trough concentrations >0.5 to 1 mcg/mL. Limited data suggest trough concentrations >3 mcg/mL may be associated with increased toxicity (IDSA [Patterson 2016]).

Mechanism of Action

Interferes with cytochrome P450 activity, decreasing ergosterol synthesis (principal sterol in fungal cell membrane) and inhibiting cell membrane formation

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Absorption:

Capsule: The 100 mg capsule (Sporanox) requires gastric acidity (absorption is increased when administered with food). The 65 mg capsule (Tolsura) has increased absorption when administered on an empty stomach; however, administration of Tolsura (2 x 65 mg capsule) with food results in exposures similar to those achieved when Sporanox (2 x 100 mg capsule) is administered with food.

Oral solution: Absorption increased on empty stomach.

Distribution: Highly lipophilic and tissue concentrations are higher than plasma concentrations. The highest concentrations: adipose, omentum, endometrium, cervical and vaginal mucus, and skin/nails. Aqueous fluids (eg, CSF and urine) contain negligible amounts; distributes into bronchial exudate and sputum.

Infants ≥7 months, Children, and Adolescents <18 years: Vd: Single dose: 18.5 ± 14.2 L/kg (Abdel-Rahman 2007).

Adults: Vd: >700 L.

Protein binding, plasma: 99.8%; metabolite hydroxy-itraconazole: 99.6%.

Metabolism: Extensively hepatic via CYP3A4 into >30 metabolites including hydroxy-itraconazole (major metabolite); appears to have in vitro antifungal activity. Main metabolic pathway is oxidation; may undergo saturation metabolism with multiple dosing.

Bioavailability: Variable; Oral solution: ~55%; increases by 30% under fasted conditions (oral solution); Note: Oral solution has a higher degree of bioavailability (149% ± 68%) relative to oral capsules; should not be interchanged.

Half-life elimination:

Infants ≥6 months and Children <2 years: Oral solution: Itraconazole: 47.4 ± 55 hours; hydroxyitraconazole: 18 ± 18.1 hours (de Repentigny 1998).

Children 2 to <5 years: Oral solution: Itraconazole: 30.6 ± 25.3 hours; hydroxyitraconazole: 17.1 ± 14.5 hours (de Repentigny 1998).

Children ≥5 years: Oral solution: Itraconazole: 28.3 ± 9.6 hours; hydroxyitraconazole: 17.9 ± 8.7 hours (de Repentigny 1998).

Adults: Oral: Single dose: 16 to 28 hours, Multiple doses: 34 to 42 hours; Cirrhosis (single dose): 37 hours (range: 20 to 54 hours).

Time to peak, plasma: Capsules: 2 to 5 hours; Oral solution: 2.5 hours.

Excretion: Urine (<1% active drug, 35% as inactive metabolites); feces (54%; ~3% to 18% as unchanged drug).

Pharmacokinetics: Additional Considerations (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Altered kidney function: Bioavailability is slightly reduced.

Hepatic function impairment: Cmax was reduced by 47% and resulted in a twofold increase in half-life (capsules).
