18505790 Yasuda K, Ranade A, Venkataramanan R, Strom S, Chupka J, Ekins S, Schuetz E, Bachmann K: A comprehensive in vitro and in silico analysis of antibiotics that activate pregnane X receptor and induce CYP3A4 in liver and intestine. Drug Metab Dispos. 2008 Aug;36(8):1689-97. Epub 2008 May 27.

We found that in HepG2 cells CYP3A4 transcription was activated strongly (> 10-fold) by rifampin and troleandomycin; moderately (> or = 7-fold) by dicloxacillin, tetracycline, clindamycin, griseofulvin, and (> or = 4-fold) erythromycin; and weakly (> 2.4-fold) by nafcillin, cefaclor, sulfisoxazole, and (> 2-fold) cefadroxil and penicillin V.

Clinicians now have five oral antifungal therapeutic agents to choose from when assessing the risk-benefits associated with a particular treatment for onychomycosis (OM): griseofulvin, itraconazole, terbinafine, ketoconazole, and fluconazole.
This azole antifungal agent is metabolized in the liver by cytochrome P-450 3A4 (CYP3A4), and therefore has the potential to interact with drugs metabolized through this pathway.
