Glucuronidation Inhibitors:


Comment:

Drugs that can inhibit glucuronidation such as probenecid, trimethoprim, and valproic acid may increase zidovudine serum concentrations, probably by inhibition of hepatic metabolism (reduced renal excretion may also be involved). Zidovudine toxicity (e.g., anemia) has been reported.
