Managing Drug-Drug Interactions Involving the Non-Prescription Opioid Loperamide Through Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Loperamide is a widely used nonprescription peripherally acting opioid indicated for diarrhea. Loperamide undergoes extensive first‐pass metabolism, primarily by cytochrome (CYP) 3A and CYP2C8, with minor contributions from CYP2B6 and CYP2D6, and intestinal efflux by P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp).

Repeated Intake of Grapefruit Juice Inhibits CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 while Lingonberry Powder Does Not Induce Major CYP Enzymes in Humans. [PDF]
Grapefruit juice is a well‐established inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, but its effects on other CYP enzymes or organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) are not fully characterized in humans. Recently, lingonberry powder was shown to induce murine CYP enzymes. We investigated the effects of lingonberry powder and grapefruit juice on seven

Amiodarone N‐Deethylation by CYP2C8 and its Variants, CYP2C8*3 and CYP2C8 P404A [PDF]
Abstract: Amiodarone is a potent Class III antiarrhythmic drug. The N‐deethylation of amiodarone to desethylamiodarone is known to be catalyzed by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8. In the present study, amiodarone N‐deethylation by the CYP2C8s, CYP2C8*1 (wild‐type), CYP2C8*3, and CYP2C8 P404A (Pro404Ala substitution in exon 8), was investigated by their ...
