Abstract
A single oral dose of omeprazole (20 mg) was given orally to 160 healthy Caucasian Swedish subjects and tested as a probe for CYP2C19. The study was nonrandomized and included seven subjects previously classified as poor metabolizers (PM) of S-mephenytoin. The ratio between the plasma concentrations of omeprazole and hydroxyomeprazole (metabolic ratio; MR) was determined by HPLC in a blood sample drawn 3 h after drug intake. In 17 subjects the test was repeated and the MRs of omeprazole on the two occasions were correlated (rs=0.85; p
