Review article: thiopurines in inflammatory bowel disease.

Alimentary pharmacology & therapeutics - 1 Sept 2006

Derijks L J J, Gilissen L P L, Hooymans P M, Hommes D W

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In the past 10-20 years, knowledge of both thiopurine pharmacology and -pharmacogenetics has been extended dramatically and used to develop new strategies to improve efficacy and reduce toxicity. AIM: To review thiopurine efficacy, toxicity, pharmacology, pharmacogenetics, interactions in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Special attention was paid to new strategies for optimization of...
