What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Darunavir and flecainide

Darunavir's FDA label of August 29, 2025 names flecainide in its drug interactions section; the flecainide label PlainMeds reads does not name darunavir. The darunavir label: “Therapeutic concentration monitoring, if available, is recommended for antiarrhythmics when co-administered with PREZISTA/ritonavir.”
