Maribavir label, warnings and precautions

Some maribavir pUL97 resistance-associated substitutions confer cross-resistance to ganciclovir and valganciclovir. ( 5.2 , 12.4 , 14.1 ) The concomitant use of LIVTENCITY and certain drugs may result in potentially significant drug interactions, some of which may lead to reduced therapeutic effect of LIVTENCITY or adverse reactions of concomitant drugs. ( 5.1 , 5.3 , 7.1 , 7.2 , 7.3 ) LIVTENCITY has the potential to increase the drug concentrations of certain immunosuppressant drugs where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse events (including tacrolimus, cyclosporine, sirolimus and everolimus).

Sirolimus's label (effective January 28, 2026) and its 3 other brand-application labels do not name maribavir in these sections. A label lists what its studies and reports found; it is not a complete list.
