Cytochrome P450 Interactions
Cytochrome P450 enzymes are responsible for metabolizing approximately 75% of clinically used drugs. Inhibition or induction of CYP enzymes is a major mechanism of drug-drug interactions.
Drug-Drug Interactions Overview
Drug-drug interactions occur when one drug affects the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of another drug, leading to altered therapeutic effects or toxicity.
Food-Drug Interactions
Food can significantly affect drug absorption, metabolism, and efficacy. Understanding food-drug interactions is essential for optimizing drug therapy.
P-Glycoprotein Interactions
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an efflux transporter that affects drug absorption, distribution, and elimination. P-gp interactions can alter the pharmacokinetics of substrate drugs.
