PBPK modeling to predict the pharmacokinetics of venlafaxine and its active metabolite in different CYP2D6 genotypes and drug-drug interactions with clarithromycin and paroxetine.

Abstract excerpt

Venlafaxine, a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and panic disorder. Venlafaxine is metabolized to the active metabolite desvenlafaxine mainly by CYP2D6.
