The effects of two Ca2+ antagonists nifedipine (NF) and diltiazem (DL) and of the nonselective beta-adrenergic blocking agent propranolol (PR) on the hexobarbital (HB) sleeping time and on the activity of some liver drug-metabolizing enzyme systems in male Wistar rats were studied. Two h after single oral administration PR (50 mg/kg) did not change HB sleeping time, while NF (50 mg/kg) and DL (30 mg/kg) prolonged it by 171.2 and 99.6%, respectively. Coadmistration of PR with DL or with NF significantly prolonged HB sleep by 240.7 and 129%, respectively. Only NF increased aniline 4-hidroxylase (AH) activity (by 92%) and the total P-450 content (by 24%). PR and NF increased cytochrome b5 content and this effect was also observed with the combinations PR + NF (by 109%) and PR + DL (by 102%). The NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase activity was significantly decreased by NF and DL and after their combination with PR. The ethymorphine-N-demethylase (EMND) and amidopyrine-N-demethylase (APND) activities were not changed. The effects of PR, NF and DL administrated alone or in combination on liver oxidative metabolism are considered as possible mechanisms of drug interactions.
