One frequently reads that an adverse effect may occur if a certain drug is given to someone who is already taking cyp3a inhibitors or inducers.
What drugs contain "cyp3a" inhibitors?

Medaches76,
There are a lot of them, but some I know right off-hand are Prozac, Zoloft, Prednisone, and Prilosec. The Cytochrome P-450 enzymes are found primarily in the liver and are important for metabolizing many medications. Each CYP family is induced and/or inhibited by various medications. Hope this helps.
