Population pharmacokinetics of levofloxacin in breastmilk in patients with rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.

The quantitative impact of metabolism‐inhibiting drugs on the occurrence of adverse drug reactions—A backward selection approach

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim The quantitative effect of several inhibitory drugs on the development of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is currently difficult to estimate. Our aim was to identify metabolic pathways, which, when inhibited, increase the risk for certain ADRs, and to use this system to consider comedication at individual level. Methods Data of a prospective

Inflammation‐driven variability in drug metabolism: Insights from voriconazole treatment of HSCT recipients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Voriconazole is commonly used to prevent fungal infections after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although its metabolism is influenced by CYP2C19 genetics and inflammation, their combined effect is rarely considered in clinical practice, and integrated analyses remain limited.
