Carvedilol No recommendation at this timeb | ||
Antidepressants | CYP2D6 |
Clomipramine and imipramine Dose should be reduced by 50 to 70 % in PMs and plasma concentrations should be monitored; in UM an alternative drug (*e.g. citalopram, sertraline) may be considered, plasma concentrations monitored or increase imipramine dose by 70 %b |
Amitriptyline PM and UM: select alternative drug* or monitor plasma concentration IM: dose reduction by 25 % and monitor plasma concentration or select alternative drug*b | ||
Nortriptyline PM (IM): reduce dose by 60 (40) % and monitor plasma concentrations UM: select alternative drug *or increase dose by 60 % and monitor plasma concentrationsb | ||
Venlafaxine PM, IM: insufficient data to allow calculation of dose adjustment, select an alternative drug or adjust dose to clinical response and monitor plasma concentration UM: titrate dose to a maximum of 150 % of the normal dose or select an alternative drug*b | ||
Doxepine PM (IM): reduce dose by 60 (20) %. Monitor plasma concentration UM: select alternative drug* or increase dose by 100 %b | ||
Paroxetine PM, IM: no dose adjustment UM: select alternative drug*b | ||
Duloxetine, mirtazapine No dose adjustment recommendationsb | ||
Antipsychotics | CYP2D6 |
Risperidone All genotypes: select alternative (e.g. quetiapine, olanzapine, clozapine) or be extra alert to ADE and adjust dose to clinical responseb |
Aripriprazole PM: reduce maximum dose to 10 mg/day IM, UM: no recommendationb | ||
Zuclopenthixol PM: reduce dose by 50 % or select alternative drug IM: reduce dose by 25 % or select alternative UM: insufficient data to allow calculation of dose adjustment, be alert to low plasma concentrations or select alternativeb | ||
Haloperidol PM: reduce dose by 50 % or select alternative (e.g. pimozide, flupenthixol, fluphenazine, quetiapine, olanzapine, clozapine) IM: none UM : insufficient data to allow calculation of dose. Be alert to decreased haloperidol plasma concentration and adjust maintenance dose in response to haloperidol plasma concentration or select alternativeb | ||
Clozapine, flupentixol and olanzapine No dose adjustment neededb | ||
Tamoxifen | CYP2D6 | PM, IM: consider using aromatase inhibitors for postmenopausal women (IM: avoid concomitant CYP2D6 inhibitor use)b |
UM: no recommendationb | ||
Anticoagulants | CYP2C9 | Warfarin: |
Two algorithms estimating stable warfarin dose across different ethnic populations [Articles: 18305455, 19228618]a | ||
Daily warfarin doses recommendations based on CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotype (warfarin product insert approved by the FDA)a | ||
Acenocoumarol | ||
*1/*2: check INR more frequentlyb | ||
*2/*2, *1/*3, *2/*3, *3/*3: check INR more frequently after initiating or discontinuing NSAIDsb | ||
Phenprocoumon | ||
*1/*2, *1/*3: noneb | ||
*2/*2, *2/*3, *3/*3: check INR more frequentlyb | ||
Phenytoin | CYP2C9 | *1/*2, *1/*3: maintenance dose reduction by 25 %b |
*2/*2, *2/*3, *3/*3: maintenance dose reduction by 50 %b | ||
