25
Q

What is the enzyme that metabolizes Codeine?

A

CYP2D6

26
Q

What is the relationship between CYP2C19 and omeprazole/lansoprazole?

A

Poor metabolizers have higher cure rates–do not clear drugs as fast

27
Q

What is the drug that CYP2C9 metabolizes?

A

Warfarin

28
Q

What enzyme clears warfarin? What does it turn it into?

A

CYP2C9

Hydroxywarfarin

29
Q

What is the MOA of warfarin?

A

inhibits Vitamin K epoxidase (VKORC1)

30
Q

What is the relationship between CYP2C9 and warfarin?

A

Slow metabolizers need a lower dose, o/w risk of bleeding

31
Q

What are the two enzymes that can change the efficacy of warfarin? How does each do this?

A

CYP2C9 = pharmacokinetics

VKORC1 = pharmacodynamics

32
Q

What is the least active polymorphisms of VKORC1?

A

VKOR1AA has the lowest activity

33

Inactivates it

Changes pharmacokinetics

44
Q

What is the relationship between 5-FU and TYMS? How can polymorphisms affect this?

A

TYMS is what 5FU inhibits

Changes pharmacodynamics of 5FU

45
Q

What is the relationship between 6-MP and TPMT? Changes in TMPT cause what?
