What the FDA labels say about taking them together
Ergotamine and voriconazole
Voriconazole's FDA label of February 26, 2026 names ergotamine in its contraindications section; the ergotamine label PlainMeds reads does not name voriconazole. The voriconazole label: “Coadministration of Voriconazole for injection with ergot alkaloids is contraindicated because Voriconazole for injection may increase the plasma concentration of ergot alkaloids, which may lead to ergotism.”
