Abstract excerpt
In 97 unselected volunteers and two additional homozygous carriers of CYP2C9(*)3, we investigated the oral clearance of torsemide in relation to 37 polymorphisms at the CYP2C gene locus. Torsemide total oral clearance was linearly associated with the number of CYP2C9(*)3 alleles (geometric mean: 59, 40 and 20 ml/min in carriers of no, one and two alleles) and so were the methyl- and ring-hydroxylation but not the...
