Phenytoin The oral bioavailability of phenytoin is variable because of differences in first-j>ass metabolism. Phenytoin metabolism is nonlinear elimination kinetics shift from first-order to zero-order at moderate to high dose levels. The drug binds extensively to plasma proteins (97-98%), and free (unbound) phenytoin levels in plasma are increased transiently by drugs that compete for binding (eg, sulfonamides, valproic acid). The metabolism of phen)Toin is enhanced in the presence of inducers of liver metabolism (eg, phenobarbital, rifampin) and inhibited by other drugs (eg, cimetidine, isoniazid). Fos-phenytoin is a water-soluble prodrug form of phen)Toin that is used parenterally.

Phenytoin interacts widi many different drugp. For example isoniazid, chloramphenicol, sulfonamides, benzodiazepines, succinimides, and cimetidine all increase phenytoin blood levels. The barbiturates, rifampin, theophylline, and warfarin decrease phenytoin blood levels. When administering the hydantoins with meperidine, die analgesic effect of meperidine is decreased. 

The effects of warfarin may increase when administered with acetaminophen, NSAIDs, beta blockers, disulfiram, isoniazid, chloral hydrate, loop diuretics, aminoglycosides, cimetidine, tetracyclines, and cephalosporins. Oral contraceptives, ascorbic acid, barbiturates, diuretics, and vitamin K decrease the effects of warfarin. Because die effects of warfarin are influenced by many drugp, die patient must notify die nurse or die primary healdi care provider when taking a new drug or discontinuing...

Certain medications (e.g., cimetidine, diltiazem, erythromycin, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, isoniazid, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, propoxyphene, and verapamil) added to carbamazepine therapy may cause carbamazepine toxicity. 

Agents that may increase theophylline levels include allopurinol, beta blockers (nonselective), calcium channel blockers, cimetidine, oral contraceptives, corticosteroids, disulfiram, ephedrine, influenza virus vaccine, interferon, macrolides, mexiletine, quinolones, thiabendazole, thyroid hormones, carbamazepine, isoniazid, and loop diuretics.

Drugs that may interact with zalcitabine include antacids, chloramphenicol, cisplatin, dapsone, didanosine, disulfiram, ethionamide, glutethimide, gold, hydralazine, iodoquinol, isoniazid, metronidazole, nitrofurantoin, phenytoin, ribavirin, vincristine, cimetidine, metoclopramide, amphotericin, aminoglycosides, foscarnet, antiretroviral nucleoside analogs, pentamidine, and probenecid. 

Only a few well-documented drug combinations with phenytoin may necessitate dosage adjustment. Coadministration of the following drugs can result in elevations of plasma phenytoin levels in most patients cimetidine, chloramphenicol, disulfiram, sulthiame, and isoniazid (in slow acetylators). Phenytoin often causes a decline in plasma carbamazepine levels if these two drugs are given concomitantly. 

Cimetidine, propoxyphene, and isoniazid also have been reported to inhibit metabolism of carbamazepine. It is essential to monitor blood levels and adjust the dose if necessary whenever additional drugs are given to patients taking carbamazepine.

Estazolam potentiates the CNS depressant effects of phenothiazines, narcotics, antihistamines, MAOIs, barbiturates, alcohol, general anesthetics, and TCAs. Use with cimetidine, disulfiram, oral contraceptives, and isoniazid may diminish hepatic metabolism and result in increased plasma concentrations of estazolam and increased CNS depressant effects. Fleavy smoking (more than 20 cigarettes/day) accelerates estazolam s clearance. Theophylline antagonizes estazolam s pharmacological effects.

Drugs that may inhibit cytochrome P450 metabolism of other drugs include amiodarone, androgens, atazanavir, chloramphenicol, cimetidine, ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin, cyclosporine, delavirdine, diltiazem, diphenhydramine, disulfiram, enoxacin, erythromycin, fluconazole, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, furanocoumarins (substances in grapefruit juice), indinavir, isoniazid, itraconazole, ketoconazole, metronidazole, mexile-tine, miconazole, nefazodone, omeprazole, paroxetine, propoxyphene, quinidine, ritonavir, sulfamethizole, verapamil, voriconazole, zafirlukast, and zileuton. 

Omeprazole, like cimetidine, can impair benzodiazepine metabolism and lead to adverse effects (SEDA-18, 43). Other drugs, including antibiotics (erythromycin, chloramphenicol, isoniazid), antifungal drugs (ketoconazole, itraconazole, and analogues), some SSRIs (fluoxetine, paroxetine), other antidepressants (nefazodone), protease inhibitors (saquinavir), opioids (fentanyl), calcium channel blockers (diltiazem, verapamil), and disulfiram also compete for hepatic oxidative pathways that metabolize most benzodiazepines, as well as zolpidem, zopiclone, and buspirone (SEDA-22,39) (SEDA-22,41). 

Drugs that inhibit phenytoin metabolism (causing its plasma concentration to rise) include sodium valproate, cimetidine, co-trimoxazole, isoniazid, chloramphenicol, some NSAIDs, disulfiram. There is a considerable body of mediocre and contradictory data, the lesson of which is that possible interaction should be borne in mind wherever other drugs are prescribed to a patient taking phenytoin.

Carbamazepine is metabolized to an active 10,11-epoxide metabolite, thus medications that inhibit 3A4 isoenzymes may result in carbamazepine toxicity (e.g., cimetidine, dUtiazem, erythromycin, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, isoniazid, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefa-zodone, propoxyphene, and verapamil). " When carbamazepine is combined with valproate, the carbamazepine dose should be reduced because valproate displaces carbamazepine from protein binding sites, thus increasing free levels." Combining clozapine and carbamazepine is not recommended because of the possibdity of bone marrow suppression with both agents. ... 

There are a number of well known inhibitors of cytochromes P-450 which form stable complexes with the enzyme. Thus SKF 525A, piperonyl butoxide, triacetyloleandomycin, amphetamine, isoniazid and cimetidine are a few of those known to form complexes with cytochromes P-450. In the case of several of these inhibitors, metabolism catalysed by cytochromes P-450 takes place and the metabolite so produced inhibits the enzyme. Thus, amphetamine is believed to be metabolized to a nitroso intermediate which complexes with the enzyme. Piperonyl butoxide is a commonly used microsomal enzyme inhibitor. It is active both in vivo and in vitro,...
