CYP2C19

CYP2C19 is an isoenzyme of cytochrome P-450.[1] 2-6% of anglos and 15-25% of asians are poor metabolizers of drugs that use the CYP2C19 isoenzyme.[2][3] More recently, a study suggests that 30% of patients may have a reduced-function allele.[4]

CYP2C19 polymorphism affects response to clopidogrel. CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles are associated with more cardiovascular events.[5] Concomitant proton pump inhibitors, which are also metabolized by CYP2C19, may[6] (especially inhibitors other than pantoprazole[7]) or may not[5] increase adverse cardiac events.
