What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Amiodarone and terbinafine

Terbinafine's FDA label of October 17, 2025 names amiodarone in its drug interactions section; the amiodarone labels PlainMeds reads (2) do not name terbinafine. The terbinafine label: “Based on this finding, it is likely that other inhibitors of both CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 may also lead to a substantial increase in the systemic exposure (C max and AUC) of terbinafine when concomitantly administered.”

These are the labels' own sentences. PlainMeds does not grade interactions; a pharmacist or prescriber can say what they mean for one person's medicines.
