Single dose oxazepam has no effect on acetaminophen clearance or metabolism

J Sonne et al. Eur J Clin Pharmacol. 1986.

Abstract

The metabolism of acetaminophen and oxazepam in humans is mainly dependent on the microsomal capacity for glucuronide conjugation. The clearance of acetaminophen and the formation of metabolites were evaluated in 7 patients before and during concomitant administration of oxazepam 30 mg. The subjects received a single 500 mg dose of acetaminophen i.v. and concentrations in plasma were measured for 360 minutes and in urine for 24 h in order to estimate the production of metabolites. The single therapeutic dose of oxazepam had no effect on the clearance of acetaminophen or on formation of its metabolites.
