Cyt 3A3/4 metabolizes clozapine, sertindole, quetiapine common substrates -tricyclic antidepressants, nefazodone, sertraline, carbamazepine, ethosuximide, terfenadine, benzodiazepines, diltiazem, nifedipine, verapamil, erythromycin, cyclosporine, lidocaine, quinidine, cisapride, paracetamol. Common inhibitors -nefazodone, fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, ketoconazole. 

A possible interaction of cisapride 20 mg/day with diltiazem has been reported in a 45-year-old woman who developed near sjmcope and had QT interval prolongation (32). The QT interval returned to normal after withdrawal of cisapride. RechaUenge was not attempted. Diltiazem inhibits CYP3A4, and should therefore probably be avoided in combination with cisapride.
