NB: In patients who have previously received or are receiving intravenous bisphosphonates, invasive dental procedures should be avoided, if possible. NB: Caution is required when using medicinal products that are human thymidine kinase substrates, e.g., zidovudine. Such medicinal products, if used concomitantly with trifluridine/tipiracil, may compete with the effector, trifluridine, for activation via thymidine kinases. Therefore, when using antiviral medicinal products that are human thymidine kinase substrates, monitor for possible decreased efficacy of the antiviral medicinal product, and consider switching to an alternative antiviral medicinal product that is not a human thymidine kinase substrate, such as lamivudine, didanosine, and abacavir. NB: It is unknown whether trifluridine/tipiracil may reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives. Therefore, women using hormonal contraceptives must also use a barrier contraceptive method.,"}
