Pharmacodynamic Factors • Dose, frequency, and route of administration, plus tissue distribution and protein binding of a drug may affect its metabolism. • Since there is a limited amount of glutathione available for conjugation, the dose and frequency of dosing of drugs conjugated by glutathione can saturate the system and lead to alternative paths of metabolism. Environmental Factors • Ingested or inhaled environmental substances can compete for metabolizing enzymes, induce or inhibit enzymes, or even poison enzymes (carbon monoxide and pesticides).

Step g: Abstraction of a hydrogen atom from the drug by the ferryl complex produces a radical–hydroxide complex intermediate. • Step h: Radical recombination yields the hydroxylated product and regeneration of the F3+–P450 complex (step a). ). ). 11.
