Abstract excerpt
Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a widely used antiepileptic drug with large interindividual variability in serum concentrations. Previous studies found that CYP3A5*3 (rs776746), UGT2B7*2 (802C>T), and UGT2B7*3 (211G>T) variants could change the enzymes' activity, which may influence drug concentrations. Our study aims to investigate whether these variants affect steady-state CBZ concentrations in Chinese epileptic...
