Interactions

Pharmacogenomic + mechanism interactions5 edges
Pharmacokinetic mechanismSubstrate / metabolism relationships from primary literature
Enzyme:CYP2D6 inhibitor strong Primary 85 / 100
Strong CYP2D6 inhibitor at therapeutic doses; reduces morphine generation from codeine.
reversible competitive, effect resolves over ~5 inhibitor half-lives
Inferred from pharmacokinetic dataMaterialised by the inference engine; provenance shown per row
Codeine pk lowers via CYP2D6 Inferred 85 / 100
Bupropion inhibits CYP2D6 (inhibitor_strong, intensity 85); Codeine is a prodrug_activated_by of CYP2D6 (intensity 100). Derived: Codeine exposure lowered.
reversible competitive, effect resolves over ~5 inhibitor half-lives
Inferred via Enzyme:CYP2D6 (exposure lowered)
Desipramine pk raises via CYP2D6 Inferred 68 / 100
Bupropion inhibits CYP2D6 (inhibitor_strong, intensity 85); Desipramine is a substrate_major of CYP2D6 (intensity 80). Derived: Desipramine exposure raised.
reversible competitive, effect resolves over ~5 inhibitor half-lives
Inferred via Enzyme:CYP2D6 (exposure raised)
Dextromethorphan pk raises via CYP2D6 Inferred 68 / 100
Bupropion inhibits CYP2D6 (inhibitor_strong, intensity 85); Dextromethorphan is a substrate_major of CYP2D6 (intensity 80). Derived: Dextromethorphan exposure raised.
reversible competitive, effect resolves over ~5 inhibitor half-lives
Inferred via Enzyme:CYP2D6 (exposure raised)
Nebivolol pk raises via CYP2D6 Inferred 68 / 100
Bupropion inhibits CYP2D6 (inhibitor_strong, intensity 85); Nebivolol is a substrate_major of CYP2D6 (intensity 80). Derived: Nebivolol exposure raised.
reversible competitive, effect resolves over ~5 inhibitor half-lives
Inferred via Enzyme:CYP2D6 (exposure raised)
