    If the medicinal product is taken concomitantly               Ginkgo leaf may increase the effects of
    with anticoagulants (e.g. phenprocoumon and                   anticoagulants such as coumarin derivatives.
    warfarin) or antiplatelet drugs (e.g. clopidogrel,
    acetylsalicylic acid and other non-steroidal anti-
    inflammatory drugs), their effect may be
    influenced.
    
    Available studies with warfarin do not indicate that
    there is an interaction between warfarin and G.
    biloba products, but adequate monitoring is
    advised when starting, when changing G. biloba
    dose, when ending G. biloba intake or if changing
    product.
    
    An interaction study with talinolol indicates that G.
    biloba may inhibit P-glycoprotein at the intestinal
    level. This may give rise to increased exposure of
    drugs markedly affected by P-glycoprotein in the
    intestine such as dabigatran etexilate. Caution is
    advised if combining G. biloba and dabigatran.
    
    One interaction study has indicated that the Cmax
    of nifedipine may be increased by G biloba. In
    some individuals, increases by up to 100% were
    observed resulting in dizziness and increased
    severity of hot flushes.
    
    Concomitant use of G. biloba preparations and
    efavirenz is not recommended; plasma
    concentrations of efavirenz may be decreased
    because of induction of CYP3A4 (see also section
    4.4).
