Abstract
This report describes work directed towards the development of a screening technique for cytochrome P450 3A activity which should be valid for a variety of drugs metabolized by this enzyme. A significant correlation (P < 001) was found between the ratio of the plasma concentration of nifedipine to that of its oxidized metabolite and the area under the time curve for the plasma concentration of midazolam. It is suggested that the nifedipine: metabolite ratio might have general predictive value for the metabolism of orally administered cytochrome P450 3A substrates.Keywords
