Most of these drugs are administered by the oral route, where absorption into the systemic circulation occurs through the intestinal barrier. However, the course and extent of this absorption may be limited by biotransforming enzymes and transport proteins, in particular the family of so-called ATP-binding cassette transporters. These transporters are capable of returning many xenobiotics, including many drugs, back into the lumen of the gut and are the first line of defence against the entry of these substances into the body. An important representative of this group of transporters is P-glycoprotein, which is known for its broad substrate specificity. On this transporter, drugs can act as substrates but also as inhibitors and/or inducers, which may lead to the risk of drug-drug interactions. There is relatively little information about the effect of anthelmintics on P-glycoprotein inhibition. The most studied...
