In 90% metabolic activity dependents on six enzymes: CYP1A2, CYP3A, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP2E1. Polymorphisms in the CYP450 gene can influence metabolic activity of the subsequent enzymes. A poormetabolizer (PM) has no or very poor enzyme activity. A consequence of PM is drug toxicity if no other metabolic route is available, or when multiple drugs are metabolized by the same cytochrome. In that casedose reduction is an option to prevent toxic effects.
ConclusionsIn the future genotyping should be considered to identify patients who might be at risk of severe toxic responses, in order to guide appropriate individual dosage. Medical therapy should be a close cooperationbetween clinicians, pharmacologists and laboratory specialists, leadingto reduced therapeutic errors, ADRs and health care costs.
