a

Bolded refers to primary pathway.

b

Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling was used to assess drug‐drug interaction potential.

c

Possible DDIs were assessed at clinically relevant concentration from in vitro data.

d

No definitive information on CYP3A involvement in metabolism of rifampicin.

e

Asaumi et al. assigned fm (0.76) through UGTs in PBPK modeling. 96

f

Enzyme responsible for hyperforin metabolism. Hyperforin, a constituent of St. John’s Wart, responsible for CYP3A induction.
