S. Rotzinger et al., Metabolism of some "second"- and "fourth"-generation antidepressants: Iprindole, viloxazine, bupropion, mianserin, maprotiline, trazodone, nefazodone, and venlafaxine, CELL MOL N, 19(4), 1999, pp. 427-442
1. This review summarizes the major known aspects of the metabolism of seco
nd-generation (iprindole, viloxazine, bupropion, mianserin, maprotiline, an
d trazodone) and fourth-generation (nefazodone and venlafaxine) antidepress
ants.
2. Discussions about specific enzymes involved and about possible pharmacok
inetic drug-drug interactions, particularly as they relate to cytochrome P4
50 enzymes, are provided.
