Objective: Objective is to demonstrated the role of CYP P450 2D6 polymorphisms in metoclopramide-induced acute dystonic reactions.
Background: Metoclopramide can induce acute extrapyramidal reactions by inhibiting dopamine receptors in basal ganglia.
Method: 10-year-old girl who received metoclopramide developed an acute dystonic reaction. Treatment was immediately discontinued and the side effects resolved. Genotyping was performed by using a PCR-based method.
Results: The patient was homozygous for inactive CYP2D6 gentopyes (CYP2D *4/*4 and CYP2D6 *10/*10), implicating poor drug metabolism.
Conclusion: Metoclopramide-induced acute dystonic reaction may occur in patients carrying a CYP2D6 polymorphisms. Presented case report highlights the importance of genotyping. Pharmacogenetic analysis should be performed when drug toxicity is suspected.
