The effect of echinacea (Echinacea purpurea root) on cytochrome P450 activity in vivo

Abstract: Echinacea (E purpurea root) reduced the oral clearance of substrates of CYP1A2 but not the oral clearance of substrates of CYP2C9 and CYP2D6. Echinacea selectively modulates the catalytic activity of CYP3A at hepatic and intestinal sites. The type of drug interaction observed between echinacea and other CYP3A substrates will be dependent on the relative extraction of drugs at hepatic and intestinal sites. Caution should be used when echinacea is coadministered with drugs dependent on CYP3A or CYP1A2 for their … Show more

“…Herbal medicines (eg, St John's wort or echinacea), may alter drug pharmacokinetics through inhibition of the cytochrome P450 system, resulting in prolonged drug effect and altered (increased or decreased) blood drug concentrations. [111][112][113][114][115][116] Kava may increase the effects of sedatives by potentiating ␥-aminobutyric acid inhibitory neurotransmission, and valerian may itself produce sedation that apparently is mediated through modulation of ␥-aminobutyric acid neurotransmission and receptor function. 117,118 Drugs such as erythromycin, cimetidine, and others may also inhibit the cytochrome P450 system, resulting in prolonged sedation with midazolam as well as other medications competing for the same enzyme systems.…”

“…Subsequently, multiple clinical trials of drug-botanical dietary supplement interactions were carried out using different extracts of milk thistle, and all revealed no drug interaction effects. It was pointed out by Brantley et al (2014) that, to their knowledge, no mathematical modeling had been Drug-Botanical Dietary Supplement PK Interactions CYP1A (Lin et al, 1998); CYP3A4 (Guo et al, 2001) CYP2D6 (Tang et al, 2006) (Paolini et al, 1999); CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 (Johne et al, 1999;Lefebvre et al, 2004); CYP3A4 (Johne et al, 1999;Gorski et al, 2004;Lefebvre et al, 2004); UGT1A1 (Guo et al, 2013) CYP1A2 (Kent et al, 2002); CYP2B6 (Lefebvre et al, 2004) ---Plant sterols (e.g., sitosterol) MDR1 (Nabekura et al, 2008); MRP1 (Chow et al, 2006)…”
