In vivo and in vitro alterations in carbamazepine (CBZ) metabolism and the extent of enzyme induction of the hepatic cytochrome P-450 system after chronic oral denzimol to rats were evaluated. No effect on drug-metabolizing enzymes was detected for this new anticonvulsant drug at a dose of 15 mg/kg, which is just above the anticonvulsive dose. At higher doses (60 mg/kg) denzimol significantly raised the hepatic cytochrome P-450 content, enhanced CBZ clearance and tend to shorten its elimination t1/2 and that of its active metabolite. These results, combined with those of a previous study showing impairment of CBZ metabolism after single doses of denzimol, suggest that the drug may have either inductive or inhibitory effects on microsomal mixed-function oxidase activity in the rat, depending on the dose and schedule of treatment.
