The effect of celery and parsley juices on pharmacodynamic activity of drugs involving cytochrome P450 in their metabolism

Abstract: Celery (Apium graveolens) and parsley (Petroselinum sativum), plants used worldwide in human nutrition, are the natural sources of methoxsalen. In this study we investigated the effect of mice pretreatment with juices of this plants on the hypnotic action of pentobarbital and analgesic action of paracetamol and aminopyrine, the drugs involving cytochrome P450 superfamily in their metabolism. In mice pretreated with celery and parsley juices a prolonged action of pentobarbital with respect to control was observ… Show more

“…This action could be due to the reduction of the activity of the Na-K ATPase pump in the cortical collecting duct. However in mice, pre-treatment with parsley and celery extracts showed a decrease in the content of CYP450 in the liver compared to controls, and the mice exhibited a more pronounced response to phenobarbital [12]. …”

“…In addition, patients on aspirin therapy should avoid ingesting Parsley due to possible increased sensitivity and allergic reactions [4,8]. The presence of myristicine, a narcotic which affects the central nervous system can interfere with opoid therapy and when ingested in excess may cause convulsions and serotonin syndrome [9,10]. …”
