  • Discontinuation of the drug normally leads to the loss of effects.
  • The drug's efficacy is modest compared to some male sexual dysfunction drugs.
  • Initiation of therapy involves screening for contraindications.

Istradefylline 40 mg/day increased peak levels and AUC of CYP3A4 substrates in clinical trials.

Interaction Partner Effect Advice
Alcohol Increased sedation and hypotension Avoid concurrent use
CYP3A4 inhibitors Elevated flibanserin levels Dose adjustment or avoid
Other serotonergic agents Increased risk of serotonin syndrome Avoid concomitant use
