Herb-drug interactions with St John's wort (SJW) have been widely studied in numerous clinical studies. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for hyperforin (the constituent of SJW responsible for interactions), which has the potential to provide unique insights into SJW interactions and allow prediction of the likely extent of interactions with SJW compared to published interaction reports.
