  1. CYP2C19*2 c.G681A (rs4244285); CYP2C19*17 c.C806T (rs12248560). UM: ultra-rapid metabolizer; EM: extensive metabolizer; IM: intermediate metabolizer; PM: poor metabolizer. a The predicted metabolic phenotypes of the *2/*17 genotypic combination is unknown. p values were calculated using Chi-square test.
