The analgesic effects of tryptophan are potentiated by allopurinol (CAS 315-30-0).

Allopurinol (4-hydroxypyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine) selectively inhibits the apotryptophan pyrrolase activity in homogenates of rat liver in vitro and after intraperitoneal administration.
It is suggested that allopurinol inhibits rat liver tryptophan pyrrolase activity in vitro and after administration by preventing the conjugation of the apoenzyme with its haem activator.
Pretreatment of rats with allopurinol completely prevents the enhancement of the pyrrolase activities by tryptophan , salicylate or ethanol.
