ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The presence of phytochemicals in herbal medicines can lead to herb-drug interactions, altering the levels of these compounds and conventional drugs in the bloodstream by influencing CYP450 activity. Considering curcumin's effect on the CYP enzymes responsible for tramadol metabolism, it is essential to assess the potential interaction between curcumin and tramadol when administered together. Materials and

methods:

The pharmacokinetics of tramadol were examined in rats receiving either single or multiple doses of curcumin (80 mg/kg) compared to rats without curcumin treatment. Tramadol liver perfusion was conducted on all rat groups and perfusate samples were collected at specified intervals. Tramadol and its main metabolite were detected using an HPLC system coupled with a fluorescence detector.

Results:

Tramadol concentrations were notably higher in the co-administered group compared to both the control and treatment groups. Conversely, lower concentrations of M1 were observed in the co-administered and treatment groups compared to the control group. The AUC0-60 parameters for tramadol were as follows 32944.8 ± 1355.5, 22925.7 ± 1650.1, and 36548.0 ± 2808.4 ng⋅min/ml for the control, treatment, and co-administered groups, respectively. Both the co-administered and treatment groups exhibited a lower AUC0-60 of M1 compared to the control group. The lack of significant difference in Cmax and AUC0-60 of M1 between the treatment and co-administered groups suggests that single and multiple doses of curcumin have comparable effects on CYP2D6.

Conclusions:

These results indicate a potential for drug interactions when curcumin and tramadol are taken together. Furthermore, the influence of curcumin on tramadol metabolism varied between single and multiple oral administrations of curcumin. Hence, it is vital to highlight this interaction in clinical settings and conduct additional research to fully understand the clinical implications of combining curcumin and tramadol.
