Answer:

Enzyme inhibitors may alter the elimination rate of a particular drug or inhibit detoxication pathways

Explanation:

An enzyme inhibitor is a chemical compound capable of binding to an enzyme in order to reduce its activity. An enzyme inhibitor may bind to an active site and thus decreases the rate of reaction (direct inhibition). Enzyme inhibitors may act 1-to Inhibit detoxification enzymes and 2-reduce the elimination rate of enzyme drugs, thereby having dose-dependent toxicity effects. For example, many medicines are based on the inhibition of Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) proteins, which are a superfamily of enzymes required for drug metabolism.
