1. The inhibitory effects of cimetidine, nizatidine and omeprazole on the metabolic activity of CYP2C9, 2C19, 2D6 and 3A were investigated in human liver microsomes. Both cimetidine and omeprazole inhibited each of the CYP subfamily enzymes; in particular, omeprazole extensively inhibited the hydroxylation of S-mephenytoin (CYP2C19, Ki = 7.1 microM). Nizatidine exhibited no inhibition of any of the CYP isoforms examined. 2. Cimetidine inhibited the hydroxylation of tolbutamide but not of diclofenac, whereas omeprazole inhibited the hydroxylation of diclofenac but not that of tolbutamide. The ability to inhibit CYP2C9 varied with incubation time, as measured by the metabolic rate constant for the substrates. Therefore, suitable substrates and incubation times must be selected in inhibition studies examining metabolic clearance and the mechanism of inhibition of these drugs. 3. Nizatidine did not inhibit the metabolism of cisapride, glibenclamide, benidipine and simvastatin. Omeprazole inhibited the metabolism of cisapride (Ki = 0.4 microM), glibenclamide (11.7 microM) and benidipine (6.5 microM), whereas cimetidine inhibited the metabolism of glibenclamide (11.6 microM). To avoid drug-drug interactions, care needs to be taken to select suitable medicines for co-administration with anti-ulcer drugs.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The kinetics of omeprazole and its primary metabolites 5'-hydroxyomeprazole and omeprazole sulfone were studied in healthy volunteers to evaluate omeprazole as a probe drug for the S-mephenytoin hydroxylase (CYP2C19) polymorphism. The plasma metabolic ratio obtained from the concentrations of omeprazole plus omeprazole sulfone over 5'-hydroxyomeprazole was investigated. METHODS: The time course of the omeprazole metabolic ratio was studied in 14 extensive metabolizers, one intermediate, and five poor metabolizers of CYP2C19 after a 1-week administration of 40 mg/d omeprazole. The ratio was then determined in 187 randomly selected Caucasian hospital patients and analyzed according to liver disease and co-medication. RESULTS: Between 1 and 4 h after omeprazole intake, the volunteers phenotyped by the urinary S/R-mephenytoin ratio were reliably identified as extensive metabolizers and poor metabolizers by an omeprazole metabolic ratio-antimode of 12. This antimode remained valid in eight extensive metabolizers and one poor metabolizer, who were re-investigated with 60 mg omeprazole b.i.d. for one week. Among 30 patients without concomitant drug intake, only one poor metabolizer (3.3%) was identified by both the S/R-mephenytoin ratio and omeprazole metabolic ratio. However, 30 of 47 patients with liver disease and 20 of 110 co-medicated patients without liver disease had a ratio > 12. This highly exceeded the poor metabolizer frequency of 3-4% in Caucasians. CONCLUSIONS: Like other phenotypic tests, the omeprazole metabolic ratio appears to reflect CYP2C19 genotype reliably only in individuals without liver disease or co-medication. The omeprazole metabolic ratio may serve the double purpose of phenotyping for CYP2C19 and to individualize dosing in omeprazole-treated patients.

To explore the relationship between omeprazole disposition and genetically determined S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation phenotype status, we examined the kinetic variables of omeprazole and its two primary metabolites in plasma (5-hydroxyomeprazole and omeprazole sulfone) and the excretion profile of its principal metabolite in urine (5-hydroxyomeprazole) in eight extensive (EMs) and eight poor metabolizers (PMs) recruited from a Korean population. Each subject received a p.o. dose of 20 mg of omeprazole as an enteric-coated formulation, and blood and urine samples were collected up to 24 hr postdose. Omeprazole and its metabolites were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. The mean omeprazole area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), elimination half-life (T1/2) and apparent p.o. clearance were significantly (P less than .001) greater, longer and lower, respectively, in PMs than in EMs. The mean peak concentration and AUC of 5-hydroxyomeprazole and AUC ratio of 5-hydroxyomeprazole to omeprazole were significantly (P less than .01 to .001) less in PMs than in EMs. The mean peak plasma concentration, AUC of omeprazole sulfone and ratio of omeprazole sulfone to omeprazole were greater (P less than .001) and T1/2 was longer (P less than .001) in PMs than in EMs. The mean cumulative urinary excretion of 5-hydroxyomeprazole up to 24 hr postdose was significantly (P less than .001) less in PMs than in EMs. In addition, the log10 4'-hydroxymephenytoin excreted in urine correlated significantly (P less than .01) with the apparent p.o. clearance of omeprazole and half-lives of omeprazole, 5-hydroxyomeprazole and omeprazole sulfone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
