We all know for studying cytochrome P-450 2D6 role in drug metabolism
it is customary to study Drug-Quinidine interaction. Due to fluorescent
interference of quinidine with the study drug, I am considering to use
Ajmalicine (reported Ki = 0.014) or prodipine (Ki = 0.0048). Can
somebody share their clinical or analytical experiences with me.
Thank you in advance for your input.

In response to the 2D6 question- A lot of work has been done using
dextromethorphan as a marker for 2D6. Perhaps that could be an alternative
agent you could use.

Prasad:
There is a paper in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry which appeared in
1993 (Vol.36, issue 9, pages 1136-45) entitled "development of a
pharmacophore for inhibition of human liver cytochrome P450 2D6:
molecular modeling and inhibition studies" by Strobl GR et al, that you
may find informative (I know this does not answer your question directly!).
