    Notes: Summary Certain interactions between disulfiram and benzodiazepines, especially diazepam and chlordiazepoxide, have previously been reported. The influence of disulfiram on the pharmacokinetics of alprazolam, a triazolobenzodiazepine, metabolized by hepatic microsomal oxidation, has been evaluated in 11 chronic alcoholic patients (6 males, 5 females) undergoing treatment for the alcohol withdrawal syndrome. Each patient received alprazolam 2 mg on the first day (control) followed by two weeks of treatment with disulfiram 0.5 g/d, and then further oral dose of alprazolam 2 mg. No significant change was found in any of the kinetic parameters. Thus, a therapeutic dose of disulfiram did not significantly alter the clearance or half-life of alprazolam in chronic alcoholic patients.

    Notes: Summary Seven healthy males (19–32 y) underwent each of four separate conditions in a repeated measures design. Five of these subjects underwent an additional trial. In four of five trials subjects received 2.0 mg atropine sulfate intramuscularly in the anterolateral portion of the left thigh: at rest (T1); following completion of a single exercise (Ex) bout (T2), (Each bout consisted of 25 min of stationary cycling at 40% VO2 max with 5 min of seated rest), prior to three Ex bouts (T3) and following one and prior to three Ex bouts (T5). Trial 4 (T4) was the same as T3 with the substitution of a saline placebo. Serum samples were collected over a 12 h period and atropine concentration was determined by RIA. Ex trials were compared to T1. Ex prior to atropine (T2) significantly decreased the mean volume of distribution (Vz, 278 vs 2321). Ex in T3 significantly decreased the serum half life (t1/2, 4.2 vs 3.5 h), Vz (278 vs 1981), and clearance (CL, 763 vs 638 ml·min−1) and significantly increased the peak concentration (Cp, 6.7 vs 12.3 ng·ml−1) and area under the curve (AUC, 44.1 vs 53.1 ng·ml−1). In T5, Ex significantly decreased the t1/2 (3.4 h), Vz (182 l) and CL (575 ml·min−1) and significantly increased the absorption rate constant (ka, 0.482 vs 1.1 min−1), elimination rate constant (ke, 0.0012 vs 0.0015 min−1), Cp (14 ng·ml−1) and AUC (53.3 ng·h·ml−1). These results demonstrate that moderate Ex either prior to and/or immediately following drug administration has the capacity to significantly modify atropine pharmacokinetics.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of the ß1-selective adrenergic antagonist (R,S)-celiprolol has been studied after oral administration of 200 mg celiprolol-HCl to 8 healthy volunteers and 8 patients with various degrees of impaired renal function. No significant difference was found between the two enantiomers in the control group or in the patients. In healthy volunteers an average of 9.8% of the dose of R-(+)-celiprolol and 9.5% of S-(-)-celiprolol was recovered unchanged in the urine. Renal impairment reduced the urinary excretion of both enantiomers to the same extent according to the severity of the uraemia, producing higher AUCs. Nevertheless, the terminal half-lives of the R- and S-enantiomers were not significantly different between the groups. Dosage reduction in patients with renal impairment does not seem to be necessary.

    Notes: Summary Healthy male volunteers received three different dose regimens of a controlled-release form of isosorbide-5-mononitrate (IS-5-MN; 60 mg per tablet). Dose regimen I consisted of a single daily dose of 60 mg given for 5 days. Dose regimen 11 was started with a dose of 60 mg, followed by 30 mg 12 h later and thereafter every 8 h. The last dose, on the 5th day was again 60 mg. In dose regimen III60 mg followed by 30 mg 6 h later were administered every day for 5 days. The peripheral arterial and venous effects of IS-5-MN during the first and last dosing interval were followed by changes in the finger pulse curve, standing systolic blood pressure, heart rate, and venous distensibility. Plasma concentrations of IS-5-MN were measured frequently following the first and the last dose. Following dose regimen I all hemodynamic effects produced by the first dose were maintained during the study. The maximal plasma concentrations were about 400 ng/ml and the trough value, lower than 100 ng/ml. Following dose regimen II the hemodynamic effects of IS-5-MN and sublingual glyceroltrinitrate were completely abolished on the 5th day. Trough plasma concentrations were approximately 300 ng/ml during the entire study period. Following dose regimen III pronounced hemodynamic effects were seen on the 1st day. However, a significant attenuation of the hemodynamic effects was measured on the 5th day, when trough plasma concentrations were between 100 and 230 ng/ml. There was a significant negative correlation between the magnitude of hemodynamic effect remaining on the 5th day (measured by the area under the finger pulse curve) and the trough plasma concentration. Thus, the maintenance of minimum plasma concentrations of IS-5MN of 300 ng/ml or higher produces a rapid development of hemodynamic nitrate tolerance, whereas no tolerance was found when the plasma concentrations were allowed to decline below 100 ng/ml before the next dose was given. A significant attenuation of hemodynamic effects was found when minimum plasma concentrations were between 100 and 230 ng/ml. The degree of attenuation in this concentration range increased with increasing trough plasma concentrations.

    Notes: Summary Netilmicin 1.5 mg/kg body weight was administered intravenously every 8 h for 2 days to 8 patients with normal renal function. Significant elevation of mean and trough plasma concentrations was found at 05.00 h and 09.00 h. This was considered to be due to circadian variation, with possible accumulation during the night. The clinical importance of this phenomenon in relation to the development of aminoglycoside toxicity awaits further investigation.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of doxorubicin (DOX), iodo-doxorubicin (I-DOX) and their metabolites in plasma has been examined in five patients each receiving 50 mg/m2 of both anthracyclines as a bolus injection. Terminal half-life, mean residence time (MRT), peak plasma concentration Cmax, and area under the curve (AUC) appeared smaller for I-DOX, whereas its plasma clearance (CLp) and volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) were larger than for DOX. The major metabolite of I-DOX was iodo-doxorubicinol (I-AOL) followed by doxorubicinol aglycone (AOLON). The AUC of I-AOL was 6-times larger than that of its counterpart AOL, which is the major metabolite of DOX. AOLON generated after I-DOX administration is a further important metabolite, as its AUC was 10-times larger than that of AOLON generated from DOX. The other aglycones, such as doxorubicin aglycone (AON) and the 7-deoxy-aglycones were only minor metabolites after either I-DOX or DOX injection. The ratio AUCI-AOL/AOL/AUCI-DOX/DOX was 27 in the case of I-DOX and 0.4 after DOX. The terminal half-lives of the cytostatic metabolites I-AOL and AOL were similar, although a longer MRT for AOL was calculated. Both metabolites had much longer MRTs than their parent drugs. The MRTs of the aglycones AOLON and AON were greater than those of the 7-deoxy-aglycones after both I-DOX and DOX. Approximately 6% DOX and less than 1% I-DOX were excreted by the kidneys during the initial 48 h. About 5% of I-DOX was excreted via the kidneys as I-AOL. Aglycones were not detected in significant amounts. The plasma concentrations of all compounds measured were highest during the first few minutes after administration of I-DOX and DOX. The I-AOL concentration was comparable to that of I-DOX immediately after the injection, due to very rapid metabolism within the central compartment (vascular space) by the aldoketo reductase system in the erythrocytes. The plasma concentration-time curves of (7d)-aglycones showed a second peak between 2 and 9 h after injection, suggesting enterohepatic circulation of metabolites lacking the daunosamine sugar moiety.

    Notes: Summary The influence of treatment with ponsinomycin, a new macrolide antibiotic, on the pharmacokinetics of cyclosporin A has been studied in 10 renal transplant patients. The pharmacokinetics of cyclosporin A was investigated at steady state, before and during treatment with ponsinomycin. On average, the blood levels of cyclosporin A were doubled by the macrolide, possibly due to a decrease in elimination or/and to an increase in absorption. Ponsinomycin should be use very carefully in patients treated with cyclosporin A.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic profile of 200 mg sustained-release flurbiprofen capsules was compared in nine elderly (mean age 84.2 years) and 10 young (mean age 38.1 years) patients with arthritis. After a single capsule, a 48 h plasma concentration profile was performed. The patients then took 1 capsule daily for a further 13 days with plasma levels of the drug being measured pre-dose on alternate days. Following ingestion of the last capsule, a further 48 hour plasma concentration profile was performed. These results were compared with each other and with computer predicted data obtained from dosing with 200 mg conventional flurbiprofen (as 100 mg b.d.). In both young and elderly patients, the two 48 h plasma concentration profiles confirmed the sustained-release characteristics of the capsule. There was no evidence of dose-dumping, although, in one elderly patient with a partial gastrectomy, higher plasma concentrations were observed. Inter- and intra-patient variability was acceptable. A steady-state was achieved within the predicted four days in both groups and there was no evidence of accumulation with the daily dosing interval. A mean steady-state level of approximately 6 μg/ml was achieved for both populations. Computer predicted data for 200 mg conventional flurbiprofen (as 100 mg b.d.) showed a pre-dose/peak range of 1–12 μg/ml. The pre-dose/peak ranges for the young and old patients were 4–10 μg/ml and 4–8 μg/ml respectively. One young patient developed a hypersensitivity reaction of moderate severity; one young and four elderly patients developed a low haemoglobin concentration during the study. No other changes in haematological or biochemical parameters were seen.

    Notes: Summary S(+)-, R(−)- or racemic ibuprofen was administered orally to volunteers in doses of 150 mg, 300 mg and 500 mg pure S(+)-, 300 mg pure R(−)- and 600 mg racemic ibuprofen. The pharmacokinetic parameters in humans showed that S(+)-ibuprofen was not inverted to R(−)-ibuprofen, whereas R(−)-ibuprofen was inverted to S(+)-ibuprofen to a variable degree. S(+)-ibuprofen and R(−)-ibuprofen given alone more rapidly reached significantly higher maximal plasma concentrations than after the same doses of the racemic compound. The elimination half-lives and clearance values for all three forms of ibuprofen were comparable. The mean residence time of S(+)-ibuprofen after R(−)- and racemic ibuprofen was significantly longer than after administration of the pure S(+)-enantiomer. Judged by the AUC, the bioavailability of S(+)-ibuprofen was independent of the dose within the range tested. Administration of S(+)-ibuprofen to 6 rheumatic patients showed that the pharmacokinetic behaviour of S(+)-ibuprofen in patients was similar to that found in volunteers. S(+)-ibuprofen proved to be an effective analgesic antirheumatic drug in the dose range 1 to 1.5 g/day.

    Notes: Summary The absorption kinetics of different pharmaceutical formulations of orally and rectally administered flecainide have been assessed in a cross-over study in 7 healthy volunteers. The subjects received single doses of flecainide after a washout period of at least one week. A tablet, an oral solution, a rectal solution and a 10 min i.v. infusion during 10 min each containing 100 mg flecainide were administered to the subjects in a randomized order. The mean absolute bioavailability was 98%, 78% and 81% for the rectal and oral solutions and the tablet. The lag time after administration of the oral solution was 0.33 h and it was 0.86 h after the tablet and 0.18 h after the rectal solution. The mean time to the peak serum concentration (tmax) after the rectal solution (0.67 h) was shorter than after either the tablet (4 h) or oral solution (1 h). The maximum serum concentration (Cmax) was 0.29 mg · 1−1 after the rectal solution, 0.14 mg · 1−1 after the tablet and 0.17 mg · 1−1 after the oral solution. All the volunteers showed significantly higher serum flecainide concentrations during the first 20 min of the absorption phase after rectal administration of 100 mg flecainide as a solution compared to its oral administration. In conclusion: based on the absolute bioavailability, Cmax, tmax, and lag times, rectal administration of flecainide solution gave a better absorption profile than after oral tablet or solution.
