hi i am doing the NPA.

[red25]

hi question 1 is in relation to drug metabolism, describe the process of: enzyme inhition and enzyme induction

[Nik]

This question has been answered before on the forum, worth doing a search.

[johnep]

'enzyme inhition and enzyme induction'
This would be to do with med interaction or even some foods, eg Strong cheese with MAOIs or Grapefruit juice.
Remember google is your friend.

All the major ones are marked with a black circle, i just tried to stick to the ones where i had heard of both the drugs so i felt like i knew what i was doing a bit more! Also if you can access the Stockley's durg interaction website at work it's really useful.
