Abstract excerpt
Genetic polymorphism exists for CYP2C19, a dominant metabolic enzyme of voriconazole (VRCZ), and VRCZ pharmacokinetics has been shown to fluctuate according to the CYP2C19 phenotype. Although dosages for different phenotypes have been recommended in various retrospective studies, few reports have adjusted the initial VRCZ dose based on CYP2C19 phenotype determined prior to administration. In this study, we...
