Almitrine bismesylate can induce a stereotypical sensory peripheral neuropathy probably through a toxic mechanism. High plasma concentrations of almitrine have been reported in a patient with neuropathy. Since large inter-individual variations in plasma drug concentrations are found it is possible that the development of toxicity may be linked to genetically determined polymorphic oxidation of the drug. Oxidation phenotyping was performed in fifteen patients with almitrine neuropathy using dextromethorphan, a test compound subject to oxidative metabolism similar to that of debrisoquine. All patients were of the extensive metaboliser phenotype. This result shows that, in contrast to perhexiline neuropathy, almitrine neuropathy is not related to slow oxidation of the compound with regard to the particular P-450 iso-enzyme involved in dextromethorphan and debrisoquine metabolism.
