I'll see if i can find the study on the P450. They used caffeine, which is also metabolized on that cytochrome. The results were pretty incredible. I've only met one doc who knew about it, without me having to reference it for them.

This is fascinating.
Does it also make sense that meds work much better on me when I have an ativan before a procedure?

I have a history of waking up in the middle of procedures. Sometimes the anesthesiologist heeds my warning, sometimes not. I've always thought for me it was just a tolerance to the medications. This information is very interesting.

Very interesting study. Enhanced specific drug metabolism in CF is NOT well known among the general CF population. Thanks so much for posting this Havoc!

It's not well known in the medical community either. You're quite welcome <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

so the study discusses<span>CYP1A2, which is different than 450, of course.
are there other studies on P450?

P450 is a cytochrome and CYP1A2 is an enzyme on that cytochrome as is CYP3A4, both are involved with drug metabolism. CF affects all the enzymes on the P450.
