| Protein Function |
A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of fatty acids, steroids and retinoids (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997, PubMed:21289075, PubMed:21576599). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997, PubMed:21289075, PubMed:21576599). Catalyzes the epoxidation of double bonds of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20972997). Metabolizes endocannabinoid arachidonoylethanolamide (anandamide) to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid ethanolamide (20-HETE-EA) and 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid ethanolamides (EpETrE-EAs), potentially modulating endocannabinoid system signaling (PubMed:18698000, PubMed:21289075). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds. Metabolizes cholesterol toward 25-hydroxycholesterol, a physiological regulator of cellular cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:21576599). Catalyzes the oxidative transformations of all-trans retinol to all-trans retinal, a precursor for the active form all-trans-retinoic acid (PubMed:10681376). Also involved in the oxidative metabolism of drugs such as antiarrhythmics, adrenoceptor antagonists, and tricyclic antidepressants.

| Recommended Action | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Management | Pharmacologic response to tetrabenazine should be monitored more closely whenever a potent CYP450 2D6 inhibitor (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine, or quinidine) is added to or withdrawn from therapy. Tetrabenazine is not recommended for use in patients with congenital long QT syndrome or with arrhythmias associated with a prolonged QT interval. Assessment of baseline QT interval and periodic monitoring during therapy may be considered. In patients already stabilized on tetrabenazine, the daily dosage of tetrabenazine should be halved. The maximum dosage recommended is 25 mg per dose and 50 mg per day during coadministration with a potent CYP450 2D6 inhibitor or in patients who are poor metabolizers of CYP450 2D6. Patients and their caregivers should be advised to notify their physician if they experience new or worsening depression, suicidal thoughts, parkinsonism, restlessness, agitation, dysphagia, and/or excessive sedation while taking tetrabenazine. Patients should also be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope. | ||||||||
