Carbamazepine has a Black Box Warning recommending testing for the HLA-B1502 allele in patients with Asian ancestry prior to starting therapy due to:
 
  1. Decreased effectiveness of carbamazepine in treating seizures in Asian patients with the HLA-B1502 allele
  2. Increased risk for drug interactions in Asian patients with the HLA-B1502 allele
  3. Increased risk for Stevens-Johnson syndrome in Asian patients with HLA-B1502 allele
  4. Patients who have the HLA-B1502 allele being more likely to have a resistance to carbamazepine

  3. Induce the metabolism of drugs, such as oral contraceptives, leading to therapeutic failure
  4. Cause nonspecific changes in drug metabolism
