The Effect of Dicloxacillin Administration on Pharmacokinetics of Narrow Therapeutic Window Drugs: Phenytoin and Warfarin. [PDF]
Dicloxacillin is a penicillinase‐resistant beta‐lactam antibiotic and potent activator of the Pregnane X receptor (PXR), known to induce CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 activity. Clinical data suggest it reduces anticoagulation in warfarin‐treated patients and increases the risk of thromboembolic events.

4-Ethyl phenyl sulfate binding to human serum albumin. [PDF]
Abstract Protein‐bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) such as 4‐ethylphenyl sulfate (4‐EPS) challenge kidney failure management due to strong binding to human serum albumin (HSA), thus limiting dialysis clearance. This study examined 4‐EPS–HSA interactions using saturation transfer difference nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (STD‐NMR), isothermal ...
