The direct inhibitory potential of twenty five anti-tuberculosis drugs on eight CYP-specific reactions in human liver microsomes was investigated to predict in vivo drug–drug interactions (DDIs) from in vitro data. Rifampicin, rifabutin, and thioacetazone inhibited one CYP reaction. Isoniazid and clofazimine had inhibitory effects on four CYP reactions, and rifapentine, ethionamide, and prothionamide widely inhibited CYP reactions. Based on the inhibition constant ( K _i) and the therapeutic total inhibitor concentrations [I]_max of eight drugs in human plasma, [I]_max/ K _i values were calculated to evaluate clinical DDIs. The [I]_max/ K _i values were 0.20 or less for rifampicin, rifabutin, and thioacetazone; 0.15–2.0 for isoniazid; 0.14–1.5 for rifapentine; 0.29–1.4 for ethionamide; 0.41–2.2 for prothionamide; and 0.12–6.3 for clofazimine. The highest [I]_max/ K _i values were 2.0 for isoniazid on CYP3A4 [testosterone (T)]; 1.5 for rifapentine on CYP3A4 [midazolam (M)]; 1.4 for ethionamide on CYP2C8; 2.2, 1.8, and 1.3 for prothionamide on CYP2B6, CYP2C19, and CYP2C8, respectively; and 6.3 and 5.7 for clofazimine on CYP3A4 (M) and CYP3A4 (T), respectively. These drugs with high [I]_max/ K _i values lead to clinical DDIs. Considering the drug regimens for tuberculosis (TB) and co-infection with TB and human immunodeficiency virus, the inhibitory potential for CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 is particularly important. These results suggest that clofazimine and prothionamide are likely to cause clinically relevant DDIs when co-administered with products metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP2B6, respectively. Isoniazid and rifapentine may cause DDIs with drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
