Protein Family Cytochrome P450 family
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.

      Mechanism Description
  • Increased plasma concentrations of Bupivacaine and Carteolol due to competitive inhibition of the same metabolic pathway
     Increased risk of bradycardia Click to Show/Hide Mechanism Graph

      Drug Name Bupivacaine Carteolol
      Mechanism 2 Bradycardia Bradycardia
      Key Mechanism Factor 2
Factor Name Bradycardia
Factor Description Bradycardia is a slow heart rate in which the heart beats less than 60 times per minute. If the heart rate is very slow and the heart is not pumping enough oxygen-rich blood to the body, and you may feel dizzy, very tired or weak, and short of breath.
      Mechanism Description
  • Increased risk of bradycardia by the combination of Bupivacaine and Carteolol 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution is recommended if multiple doses of bupivacaine are administered in the presence of a beta-blocker. Monitoring for drowsiness, mental status changes, convulsions, ECG changes, and hypotension is advisable during concurrent therapy.
