RESUMO
With the continuously clinical study of capsaicin, capsaicin-drug interaction has become increasingly prominent. In recent years, the studies indicate that capsaicin shows a significant inducing or inhibitory effect on a variety of drug metabolism enzymes and transporters, thereby leading to the occurrence of complex drug interactions and affecting the other drugs in vivo process. In this paper, the modulation effect of capsaicin on drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters by reviewing the relevant research at home and abroad in recent years were summarized, and the drug-drug interactions associated with capsaicin in order to provide theoretical guidance for clinical rational drug use were explored. Furthermore, complex drug-drug interaction studies can be provided with prior examples.
