Pharmacogenetic Variation in Drug Oxidizing CYPs: Impact on Drug Therapy, Drug Safety and Drug Interactions.
2003-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are multifunctional enzymes that are active in the oxidative metabolism of many drugs and play a dominant role in the elimination of drugs from the body. Pharmacokinetic interactions may arise when the biotransformation and elimination of a drug are impaired by coadministered drugs. Thus, drugs may compete for biotransformation by a common CYP. Adverse drug reactions, including toxicity, ca...
