While generally not of major concern, omeprazole may inhibit the metabolism of warfarin, diazepam, and phenytoin lansoprazole may decrease theophylline concentrations. Drug interactions with omeprazole are of particular concern in patients who are considered slow metabolizers, as are approximately 3% of the Caucasian population. Unfortunately, it is unclear which patients have the polymorphic gene variation that makes them slow metabolizers.17 The metabolism of esomeprazole may also be altered in patients with this polymorphic gene variation. Patients on potentially interacting drugs should be monitored for development of drug-related problems.

Omeprazole is classified as a proton pump inhibitor, as it acts by blocking the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphate enzyme system of the gastric parietal cells. Omeprazole therefore inhibits gastric acid release. Common side-effects associated with omeprazole include diarrhoea, headache, nausea and vomiting. Concurrent administration of omeprazole and phenytoin results in enhanced effects of phenytoin, which may lead to phenytoin toxicity.

Omeprazole can inhibit the metabolism of drugs metabolised mainly by the cytochrome P-450 enzyme subfamily 2C (diazepam, phenytoin), but not of those metabolished by subfamilies lA (caffeine, theophylline), 2D (metoprolol, propranolol), and 3A (ciclosporin, lidocaine (lignocaine), quinidine). Since relatively few drugs are metabolised mainly by 2C compared with 2D and 3A, the potential for omeprazole to interfere with the metabolism of other drugs appears to be limited, but the half lives of diazepam and phenytoin are prolonged as much as by cimetidine.
