Adverse events with quetiapine and clarithromycin coprescription: A population‐based retrospective cohort study

Abstract: Background and Aims: Quetiapine is an atypical antipsychotic predominantly metabolized by the cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzyme. We studied the risk of adverse events following coprescription of clarithromycin (a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor) versus azithromycin (not a CYP3A4 inhibitor) in quetiapine users.

“…Individuals with poor CYP2D6 activity (PMs) are prone to therapeutic failure due to inadequate drug clearance, while those with ultra-rapid metabolism (UMs) may require higher dosages to achieve desired therapeutic effects (Wei et al, 2012). This is exemplified by risperidone, where PMs may not experience sufficient therapeutic benefit, whereas UMs require increased doses to achieve efficacy (Yau et al 2023).…”
