| Abstract | Valproic acid (VPA) has an extensive interindividual pharmacokinetic variability. Published data regarding the impact of gender, age, and CYP2C9/2C19 genetics on VPA variability are conflicting, and the purpose of present study is to clarify the effect of these factors on dose-adjusted steady-state serum VPA concentration (C:D ratio) in a large, naturalistic patient material.In patients who had been subjected to cytochrome P450 (CYP) genotyping and therapeutic drug monitoring of VPA, information about serum concentrations, dose, gender, age, and CYP2C9/2C19 genotypes was retrospectively collected from a routine TDM database during the period 2008-2012. The effects of age, gender, and CYP2C9/CYP2C19 genotypes on C:D ratios of VPA were investigated by multivariate analyses (mixed model) including sampling time as covariate.In total, 857 serum concentrations from 252 patients were included. A significant gender effect was observed with a 1.3-fold higher estimated C:D ratio in females than in males, i.e., geometric means 0.34 vs. 0.27 μM/mg/day, respectively (p < 0.001). A similar and significant difference in estimated geometric means was found between patients >65 vs. ≤65 years, i.e., 0.36 vs. 0.26 μM/mg/day (p < 0.001), respectively. Finally, no association between the various CYP2C9/2C19 variant genotypes and C:D ratio of VPA was observed (p > 0.1).The present study shows that age and gender significantly influence VPA serum concentration. In order to obtain similar drug exposure, our findings suggest that older female patients would generally require 30–50 % lower dosing of VPA compared to younger males. Moreover, we conclude that CYP2C9/2C19 genotype is not relevant for variability in VPA exposure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
