The relationship between plasma concentration of metoprolol and CYP2D6 genotype in patients with ischemic heart disease [PDF]
Background Metoprolol is the one of the most commonly used β-blockers in the treatment of ischemic heart disease and it is extensively metabolized in the liver undergoing oxidation by CYP2D6 isoenzyme of cytochrome P450.

Cytochromes are proteins that catalyze electron transfer reactions of many metabolic pathways. They are involved in drug metabolism and thus determines the therapeutic safety and efficacy of drugs in patients. Cytochrome P450 in mitochondria accounts for 90% of the oxidative metabolism of clinically used drugs during phase 1 reaction. CYP2D6 is a major

Abstract Clozapine is licenced for treatment‐resistant schizophrenia and psychosis in Parkinson's disease. In the United Kingdom, there is a mandatory requirement for absolute neutrophil count (ANC) and white blood cell count (WBC) monitoring to safeguard against agranulocytosis.

The Impact of CYP2D6 Genotyping on Tamoxifen Treatment [PDF]
Tamoxifen remains a cornerstone of treatment for patients with oestrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer. Tamoxifen efficacy depends on the biotransformation, predominantly via the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) isoform, to the active metabolite endoxifen.

Fentanyl, hydromorphone, and oxycodone are metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). Co‐administration with CYP3A4‐inhibiting macrolides (clarithromycin or erythromycin) may increase opioid concentrations and overdose risk, but the clinical impact of these interactions is unknown.

Risperidone is a commonly used antipsychotic for treating psychiatric illness in children and adolescents. There is a large variability in risperidone response and discontinuation rates remain high. Pharmacogenomics offers the opportunity to improve risperidone outcomes, yet studies in pediatric populations are limited.

CYP2D6 Polymorphisms in Patients with Porphyrias
The cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzymes, a superfamily of heme proteins which are the terminal oxidases of the mixed function oxidases system, metabolize more than 70% of all clinically approved drugs. The highly polymorphic CYP2D6 isoform metabolizes more than 25% of most common drugs, and the phenotypes of the 70-plus allelic variants range from ...
