The following adverse drug reactions and incidences are derived from product labeling unless otherwise specified.
1% to 10%: Local: Application site pain (4%)
<1%: Dermatologic: Urticaria
Frequency not defined: Hypersensitivity: Hypersensitivity reaction
Postmarketing: Dermatologic: Allergic contact dermatitis
Hypersensitivity to crisaborole or any component of the formulation
Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Hypersensitivity: Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported, including contact urticaria. Severe pruritus, swelling, or erythema (at the application site or at a distant site) may be indicative of hypersensitivity. Discontinue immediately for signs of hypersensitivity.
Some dosage forms may contain propylene glycol; in neonates, large amounts of propylene glycol delivered orally, intravenously (eg, >3,000 mg/day), or topically have been associated with potentially fatal toxicities which can include metabolic acidosis, seizures, renal failure, and CNS depression; toxicities have also been reported in children and adults including hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, seizures, and respiratory depression; use caution (AAP 1997; Shehab 2009).
None known.
Note: Interacting drugs may not be individually listed below if they are part of a group interaction (eg, individual drugs within “CYP3A4 Inducers [Strong]” are NOT listed). For a complete list of drug interactions by individual drug name and detailed management recommendations, use the Lexicomp drug interactions program by clicking on the “Launch drug interactions program” link above.
Riociguat: Crisaborole may enhance the hypotensive effect of Riociguat. Management: Riociguat is contraindicated with nonselective phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors and PDE type 5 inhibitors. Other types of PDE inhibitors are not contraindicated, but caution is advised and patients should be monitored for hypotension. Risk C: Monitor therapy
Adverse effects were not observed in animal reproduction studies, except with high oral doses which also produced maternal toxicity.
It is not known if crisaborole is excreted in breast milk; however, it is absorbed systemically following topical application. According to the manufacturer, the decision to continue or discontinue breast-feeding during therapy should take into account the risk of infant exposure, the benefits of breast-feeding to the infant, and benefits of treatment to the mother.
Signs of hypersensitivity
Inhibits phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE-4) and results in increased intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels.
Protein binding: 97%
