Notizen:
Stereoselective pharmacokinetics of ibuprofen (IB) enantiomers were studied in rats. Unidirectional conversion from R-ibuprofen (R-IB) to S-ibuprofen (S-IB) was observed following intravenous administration. S-IB concentrations in plasma following racemate administration were simulated according to a conventional compartmental model using the parameters obtained after the administration of individual enantiomers, and resulted in overestimation of S-IB concentrations.Binding of IB enantiomers measured in rat plasma was stereoselective, the binding of R-IB being more favorable than that of S-IB. Moreover, there are interactions between IB enantiomers in binding, which may cause the increase of distribution volumes of IB enantiomers in the presence of their antipodes. Hence simulated S-IB concentrations according to a conventional compartment model were significantly greater than those observed. Indeed, when the enantiomer-enantiomer interactions were taken into account, simulation of S-IB concentrations in plasma following racemate administration was in good agreement with observed values. Therefore, interactions between stereoisomers as well as dispositional stereoselectivity have to be considered when pharmacokinetics of stereoisomers after administration of the racemate are compared to those after administration of individual isomers.
