An updated review of pharmacokinetic drug interactions and pharmacogenetics of statins

Expert Opinion on Drug Metabolism & Toxicology, 2020
Introduction Hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins) lower cholesterol synthesis in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Increased statin exposure is an important risk factor for skeletal muscle toxicity.

Clinical Aspects of Transporter‐Mediated Drug–Drug Interactions

Clinical pharmacology and therapy, 2019
Drug transporters play an essential role in disposition and effects of multiple drugs. Plasma concentrations of the victim drug can be modified by drug–drug interactions occurring in enterocytes (e.g., P‐glycoprotein), hepatocytes (e.g., organic anion ...

Drug–drug interaction with statins

Expert Review of Clinical Pharmacology, 2008
3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase inhibitors (the so-called statins: atorvastatin, fluvastatin, pravastatin, lovastatin, rosuvastatin and simvastatin) are a well-established class of drugs in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Statin monotherapy is generally well tolerated, with a low frequency of adverse events.

Herb-Drug Interactions and Hepatotoxicity.

Current drug metabolism, 2019
BACKGROUND In recent times, herbals or phytomedicines have become very popular due to their global acceptance as a complementary and alternative remedy. While modern drugs are commercially available only after laboratory validations, clinical trials, as ...

Drug interactions

Drug Metabolism Reviews, 2009
Drugs for allergy are often taken in combination with other drugs, either to treat allergy or other conditions. In common with many pharmaceuticals, most such drugs are subject to metabolism by P450 enzymes and to transmembrane transport. This gives rise to considerable potential for drug-drug interactions, to which must be added consideration of drug ...

Drug interactions

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2001
The prevalence of undesirable drug interactions is substantial but largely unknown. Although drug interactions are certainly an important cause of drug toxicity, their clinical significance may have been exaggerated. This review presents a brief overview of possible drug interactions.
