What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Sirolimus and trandolapril

Trandolapril's FDA label of October 31, 2025 names sirolimus in its drug interactions section; sirolimus's label does not name trandolapril itself but warns about its class (ACE inhibitors). The trandolapril label: “Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Inhibitors Patients taking concomitant mTOR inhibitor therapy may be at increased risk for angioedema.”

What does the trandolapril label say about sirolimus?

Trandolapril label, drug interactions

Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Inhibitors Patients taking concomitant mTOR inhibitor (e.g., temsirolimus, sirolimus, everolimus) therapy may be at increased risk for angioedema ( see WARNINGS – Head and Neck Angioedema ).

Trandolapril label, warnings

Where there is involvement of the tongue, glottis, or larynx, likely to cause airway obstruction, emergency therapy, including but not limited to subcutaneous epinephrine solution 1:1,000 (0.3 to 0.5 mL) should be promptly administered. (See PRECAUTIONS - Information for Patients and ADVERSE REACTIONS .) Patients receiving coadministration of an ACE inhibitor with an mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitor (e.g., temsirolimus, sirolimus, everolimus) or a neprilysin inhibitor (e.g., sacubitril) may be at increased risk for angioedema.
