Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To study whether the CYP2D6 capacity in ultrarapid metabolizers of debrisoquine due to duplication/multiduplication of a functional CYP2D6 gene, can be 'normalised' by low doses of the CYP2D6 inhibitor quinidine and whether this is dose-dependent. METHODS: Five ultrarapid metabolizers of debrisoquine with 3, 4 or 13 functional CYP2D6 genes were given single oral doses of 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 mg...
