To this end, the plasma concentrations of this drug and its main active metabolite, dehydroaripiprazole, have been determined. In addition, the pharmacogenetic characterization of CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and ABCB1, main agents involved in the metabolism and transport of these molecules, has been carried out. The introduction into clinical practice of pharmacokinetic monitoring of aripiprazole, together with the analysis of genetic polymorphisms involved in its elimination, constitutes a fundamental pillar to implement the therapeutic individualization of this drug, as well as to optimize its benefit-risk balance.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/AripiprazolCYP2D6ABCB1PharmacokineticsPharmacogenetics320809 Procesos metabólicos de los medicamentos230222 Farmacología moleculardoctoral thesisopen access
