Cytochrome P450 inhibitors

Skull and crossbones darktextred2.png

Some CYP450 inhibitors are also MAOIs.

Make sure to check our list of MAOI interactions that can be dangerous.

Cytochrome P450 inhibitors inhibit the ability of the human body to break down certain substances, potentially increasing the amount of time a substance is active in the body.

In some cases, this inhibition of how substances are broken down in the body can lead to dangerous adverse effects. Under some conditions, this can be fatal.

CYP450 inhibitors (CYP2B6 = CYP450 2B6, CYP2C19 = CYP450 2C19, etc)
