OBJECTIVE: Omeprazole is metabolized by genetically determined S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylase (CYP2C19) in the liver. This study aimed to determine whether the effect of omeprazole on intragastric pH depends on CYP2C19 genotype status. METHODS: CYP2C19 genotype status for 2 mutations associated with the poor metabolizer phenotype was determined by a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism...
