Hepatic enzyme induction patterns and phenothiazine side effects

Abstract: D-Glucaric acid excretion was followed in psychotic patients treated with phenothiazines for 12 days and in a control group of subjects who had no psychiatric disease. About half the psychiatric patients had a treatment-related rise in D-glucaric acid excretion compatible with enzyme induction. These patients had fewer and less severe neurologic side effects than those who did not have a significant rise in urinary D-glucaric acid levels. It is concluded that individual differences in metabolism of phenothiazi… Show more

“…Glucaric acid is of interest since it also relates to sorbitol and gluconic acid, being only a single oxidation step away from gluconic acid. Glucaric acid has been frequently monitored in urine as a marker of xenobiotic stress and urinary levels have been observed to rise in response to treatments with phenothiazines (such as the antipsychotic, chlorpromazine) [54] . Sedoheptulose is considerably elevated in SDB brains while a compound putatively identified as deoxysedoheptulose phosphate is depressed.…”
