The oxidation of montelukast is mainly mediated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8, but other mechanisms may contribute to its disposition. In healthy volunteers, we investigated the effects of two widely used P2Y<sub>12</sub> inhibitors on montelukast pharmacokinetics. Clopidogrel (300 mg on day 1 and 75 mg on day 2) increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of montelukast 2.0-fold (90% confidence interval (CI) 1.72-2.28, P < 0.001) and decreased the M6:montelukast AUC<sub>0- ...[more]
