Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzyme activity is known to show considerable ethnic heterogeneity and inter-individual differences, affecting the outcome of drug treatment. CYP3A4 genetic polymorphisms are believed to one of the important causes, leading to inter-individual variability in drug metabolism. Quinine is an antipyretic drug with antimalarial properties that is metabolized primarily by CYP3A4. Quinine...
