What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Mifepristone and posaconazole

Mifepristone's FDA label of September 25, 2025 names posaconazole in its drug interactions section; the posaconazole labels PlainMeds reads (2) do not name mifepristone. The mifepristone label: “… amprenavir and fosamprenavir, clarithromycin, conivaptan, lopinavir /ritonavir, posaconazole, saquinavir, telithromycin, or voriconazole may increase exposure to mifepristone.”

Check it at the source: the mifepristone FDA label on DailyMed (effective September 25, 2025, Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated); the posaconazole FDA label on DailyMed (effective August 3, 2026, Aurobindo Pharma Limited).
