Abstract excerpt
We compared omeprazole and mephenytoin as probes for the CYP2C19 metabolic polymorphism. Single oral doses of omeprazole (20 mg) or mephenytoin (100 mg) were administered at least 1 week apart to 167 healthy volunteers. Mephenytoin metabolism was measured using the amount of 4'-hydroxymephenytoin and the S/R ratio of mephenytoin in an 8-hour urine collection. Omeprazole hydroxylation was measured using the ratio...
