Adding topiramate to valproic acid.
General information- Valproic acid is principally metabolized by CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2A6 and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. Valproic acid is an inhibitor of the enzymes CYP2C9, epoxide-hydroxylase and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases.
- Topiramate induces CYP3A4 and is an inhibitor of CYP2C19.
Start topiramate- Start topiramate according to general dosing advice. Pharmacologic response to the drugs should be monitored more closely following addition or withdrawal of one or the other drug. [4]
Cave- Topiramate has been shown to produce a small but significant increase in valproate clearance, reducing plasma levels.
- Topiramate plasma levels are increased by about 15% by valproate, which could be important if valproic acid is withdrawn.[5]
