In vitro studies on the interaction of famotidine with liver microsomal cytochrome P-450

Famotidine, 3-(((2((aminoiminomethyl)amino)-4-thiazoyl)methyl)thiol)-N-(aminos ulfonyl) propanimidamide, is a new H sub(2)-receptor antagonist and has been shown to be more potent and longer-lasting than cimetidine. To examine the potential of drug interactions in vivo, the in vitro interaction of f...

Zusammenfassung:Famotidine, 3-(((2((aminoiminomethyl)amino)-4-thiazoyl)methyl)thiol)-N-(aminos ulfonyl) propanimidamide, is a new H sub(2)-receptor antagonist and has been shown to be more potent and longer-lasting than cimetidine. To examine the potential of drug interactions in vivo, the in vitro interaction of famotidine with rat and human liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 and its subsequent inhibition of drug metabolism were compared with those of cimetidine.
