What do the different letters/numbers in CYP 3A4 represent?
|
C - gene for cytrochrome 3 - family A - subfamily 4 - specific enzyme
|
|
What type of metabolism reaction are CYP P450 responsible for?
|
Phase 1 reactions (oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis)
|
|
Where are CYP P450 enzyme systems located?
|
- primarily located in the membranes of the smooth endoplastic reticulum - located in the liver, small intestines, brain
|
|
What type of metabolism do elderly patients lose?
|
Phase I
|
|
What type of reactions are Phase II reactions?
|
synthesis and oxidation
|
|
What is induction?
|
- a substance that stimulates the synthesis of the enzyme and the metabolic capacity of that substance is increased - inducing the metabolism of a drug increases the rate of elimination of that drug
|
|
What is inhibition?
|
- competitive binding at an enzyme site - will slow metabolism of a drug (increases drug level in the body because drug is not being eliminated)
|
|
Which CYP-450 isoenzyme is most abundant?
|
CYP 3A4
|
|
Name some drugs that are metabolized by 3A4
|
1. macrolides - clarithromycin 2. Fluoxetine (Prozac) 3. Indanivir - protease inhibitor in HIV 4. Itraconazole (Sporanox) 5. Ketonazole (or Nizoral)- antifungal 6. Ritonavir - protease inhibitor
|
|
Name some CYP-450 1A2 inhibitors
|
- Cimetidine (Tagemet) - quinolones (Levaquin)
|
|
Name some inhibitors of CYP 450 2C10
|
- Fluoxetine (Prozac) - Ketocanazole - Lansoprazole
|
|
Name some inhibitors of CYP 450 2C9
|
- Amiodarone (Cordarone) - Fluconazole (Diflucan) - Isoniazid (INH)
|
|
Name some inhibitors of the CYP450 2D6
|
- Amiodarone - Cimetidine (Tagmet) - Clomipramine (Anafranil): a tricyclic antidepressant - Paroxetine (Paxil): SSRI - Ritonavir (a very potent inhibitor used to keep other antiviral drugs in the system)
|
|
Name some CYP450 3A4 inhibitors
|
- protease inhibitors - Amiodarone (Cordarone) - Clarithromycin - Erythromycin
|
|
What dosage adjustment need to be made if a patient is given Amiodarone and Coumadin?
|
- decrease dosage of Coumadin (Warfarin) by 25% because Amiodarone is an inhibitor of Coumadin
|
|
What is the safest macrolide to use to avoid drug interactions?
|
Azithromycin (Zithromax)
|
|
Name an inducer of CYP 450 1A2
|
tobacco
|
|
Name an inducer of CYP 450 2C9
|
Rifampin (potent inducer) - a antimicrobial agent
|
|
Name some inducers of CYP-450 2E1
|
- ethanol (acute) - isoniazid (chronic)
|
|
Name an inducer of CYP-450 3A4
|
- Carbamazipine - Barbituates (phenobarbital) - Rifampin
|
|
What is the pneumonic for remembering inducers?
|
