Descriptor debrisoquina
Scope note: Fármaco neuro-bloqueante adrenérgica similar en efectos a la GUANETIDINA. Hay que señalar también su función como sustrato de la enzima polimórfica del citocromo P-450. Personas con ciertas isoformas de esta enzima son incapaces de metabolizar adecuadamente esta y otras muchas sustancias clínicamente importantes. Se piensa que tiene un polimorfismo como el de la debrisoquina 4-hidroxilasa.
