Pharmacogenetics and enzyme induction/
inhibition properties of antiepileptic drugs
Abstract—One of the major differences between the older antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and the newer AEDs is the potential
of the older AEDs for significant interactions with other medications. Many of the drug– drug interactions involving the
older AEDs are reciprocal, i.e., both drugs affect each other. In contrast, the newer AEDs have either no or limited drug
interaction potential. Despite our extensive understanding of and our ability to predict drug– drug interactions, serious
drug interactions still occur. More than 30% of all new seizures occur in the elderly, and because this population may be
taking a variety of other medications the addition of an AED can have profound impact on these other therapies. In
women, the use of enzyme-inducing AEDs can cause significant alterations of sex hormones and can decrease the efficacy
of oral contraceptives. In children and adults, the use of enzyme inducers may result in long-term endocrine effects,
including bone loss and lipid, thyroid, and sex hormone abnormalities. Phenytoin and phenobarbital are metabolized by
cytochrome P450 isozymes, with activity dependent on genetic polymorphism (CYP2C9, CYP2C19). The dosing of the
newer AEDs is not affected by genetic polymorphism. The decreased induction and inhibition effects and the lack of
significant genetic polymorphism of the newer AEDs allow increased ease of use and perhaps greater safety, especially for
patients taking multiple medications.
One of the major differences between the “traditional” the effect of the older AEDs on the metabolism of en- or older antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and the newer dogenous substances is often underappreciated.

and the potential for an increased pharmacologic re- sponse. Valproic acid is a broad-spectrum metabolicinhibitor, inhibiting CYP2C9 (phenytoin and pheno- barbital), epoxide hydrolase (carbamazepine), and sev- eral UGTs (see table 1). Valproic acid is a potent inhibitor of UGT-dependent metabolism of lamotrigine (UGT1A4),7 zidovudine (UGT2B7),8 and lorazepam [UGT isozyme(s) unknown].9 There have been recent reports of coma induced by a combination of lorazepamand valproic acid10 and of severe anemia secondary to treatment with valproic acid and zidovudine.11 The macrolide antibiotics are also potent inhibitors of CYP3A4-catalyzed metabolism of carbamazepine.

This information is critical because health-care providers often prescribe the non-AED drugs to patients who have been prescribedan AED by another physician.
