| pubmed-article:16871470 | pubmed:abstractText | A 47-year-old male taxi driver experienced multiple adverse drug reactions during therapy with clomipramine (CMI) and quetiapine for major depressive disorder, after having been unsuccessfully treated with adequate doses of mirtazapine and venlafaxine. Drug serum concentrations of CMI and quetiapine were significantly increased and pharmacogenetic testing showed a poor metabolizer status for CYP2D6, low CYP3A4/5 activity and normal CYP2C19 genotype. After reduction of the CMI dose and discontinuation of quetiapine, all ADR subsided except for the increase in liver enzymes. The latter improved but did not normalize completely, even months later, possibly due to concomitant cholelithiasis. | lld:pubmed |
