1 Since nevirapine-induced hepatotoxicity commonly occurs between 2-12 weeks of treatment, and nevirapine is a known inducer of human CYP3A and CYP2B6 isozymes, it was envisaged that the hepatotoxicity was due to activation of nevirapine to toxic metabolites by the induced enzymes. Nevirapine cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
