A carbamate ester that is the mono-N-isopropyl derivative of meprobamate (which is a significant metabolite). Carisoprodol interrupts neuronal communication within the reticular formation and spinal cord, resulting in sedation and alteration in pain perception. It is used as a muscle relaxant in the symptomatic treatment of musculoskeletal conditions associated with painful muscle spasm.
[CYP2C19 gene polymorphism affects the metabolism of Carisoprodol] which affects the chemical synthesis of Meprobamate; [CYP2C19 protein results in increased metabolism of Carisoprodol] which results in increased chemical synthesis of Meprobamate
Bemegride inhibits the reaction [Carisoprodol results in increased activity of [GABRA1 protein binds to GABRB2 protein binds to GABRG2 protein]]; Carisoprodol binds to and affects the activity of [GABRA1 protein binds to GABRB2 protein binds to GABRG2 protein]
Bemegride inhibits the reaction [Carisoprodol results in increased activity of [GABRA1 protein binds to GABRB2 protein binds to GABRG2 protein]]; Carisoprodol binds to and affects the activity of [GABRA1 protein binds to GABRB2 protein binds to GABRG2 protein]
