    Notes: Summary The effects of racemic (rac) felodipine, rac-nitrendipine and nifedipine (all 20 mg solution p.o.) on non-invasively measured blood pressure and heart rate were investigated in a randomised, double-blind, cross-over study in 12 normotensive, young, healthy males. Compared to baseline values, heart rate increased more after rac-felodipine treatment (+47% at maximum) than rac-nitrendipine (+40%) and nifedipine (+38%); only small and variable changes in blood pressure were observed with any of the drugs. The baseline-corrected area under the heart rate-time curve up to 4 h after the administration of rac-felodipine was 197% and 180% larger than after nifedipine and rac-nitrendipine treatment, respectively. The effects on heart rate could be fitted individually to a sigmoidal Emax-model without hysteresis for all drugs under investigation. The relative potencies of the unbound drugs for their indirect effects on heart rate were 1:7:43 for nifedipine, rac-nitrendipine and rac-felodipine, respectively. The active (S)-enantiomers of felodipine and nitrendipine appeared to be 9-and 60-times as potent as nifedipine in this respect, assuming no (inter)activity of the (R)-enantiomers. Individual and mean changes in blood pressure were small, they were not related to plasma concentrations, and did not differ between treatments.

    The effects of single doses of CL 284,846, lorazepam, and placebo on psychomotor and memory function in normal male volunteers (1993)

    Notes: Summary The effects of single doses of CL284,846 (20 mg), lorazepam (2 mg) and placebo on psychomotor performance, memory function and subjective feelings were assessed in 12 normal, healthy male volunteers. Each subject received each treatment in balanced order and a minimum of 6 days was left between treatments. The subjects performance on a comprehensive battery of tests of psychomotor performance, memory function and subjective ratings was assessed pre-treatment and at 1, 3 and 5 h post-treatment. In general, the effects of CL284,846 on memory were similar to those of lorazepam at 1 h post-treatment but, recovery was rapid with CL284,846. Impairments induced by lorazepam persisted throughout the post-drug testing sessions. This pattern of effects was repeated across most of the variables tested. However, at 1 h, CL284,846 produced less marked psychomotor impairment than lorazepam. The results of this study suggest that CL284,846 is a safe, rapid acting and effective sedative with some clear advantages over lorazepam with respect to unwanted cognitive and psychomotor impairments.

    Notes: Summary We have studied the effects of intravenous nicorandil, a mixed arterial and venous vasodilator, in 48 healthy volunteers. Nicorandil (20, 28, 39, 54, 74, 103, 144, or 200 μg·kg−1) or placebo were given over 5 min to subjects supine (16 subjects, 2 doses) or sitting (32 subjects, 1 dose) in a single-blind crossover design. Electro-cardiographic intervals, blood pressure, and heart rate were measured before and for 8 h after dosing. Blood and urine safety laboratory studies were also performed before and after dosing. All intravenous infusions of nicorandil and placebo were well tolerated and there were no clinically important safety concerns. The most frequent adverse event after nicorandil was headache (24 events by 19 subjects), although its occurrence was not strictly dose related. One subject experienced transient symptomatic hypotension (144 μg·kg−1). Mean plasma nicorandil concentrations were dose-related and fell with a half-life of 0.7 to 1.2 h. Systemic clearance and volume of distribution tended to decrease as dose increased. Sitting subjects showed marginally lower (〈20%) systemic clearances and larger values of Cmax and AUC. Nicorandil produced dose-related reductions in blood pressure, with consistent statistically significant differences from placebo after the 144 and 200 μg·kg−1 doses. The falls in blood pressure were greater for diastolic pressure and in this supine position. At 200 μg·kg−1, the mean falls in systolic/diastolic pressures (mm Hg) during the first hour were 10.9/14.7 supine and 6.1/9.1 sitting; systolic pressure returned to baseline after 8 h and diastolic pressure after 4 h. Heart rate increased transiently (mean peak increase of 17–24 bpm at the end of the 144 and 200 μg·kg−1 infusions). Blood pressure and heart rate changes over time were statistically significantly correlated with plasma nicorandil concentrations. Individual areas under the blood pressure and heart rate change curves likewise correlated with plasma concentration curve areas.

    The pharmacokinetics and haemodynamic effects of continuous nicorandil infusion in healthy volunteers (1993)

    Notes: Summary We have studied the pharmacokinetics and haemodynamic effects of nicorandil after a 12-h infusion. Nicorandil is a mixed vasodilator combining the actions of a nitrate and a potassium channel opener. Nicorandil was infused for 12 h in 21 healthy volunteers at rates of 0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 μg·kg−1·min−1 using a placebo controlled, crossover design. Systemic blood pressure, heart rate, electrocardiographic (ECG) intervals, and cardiac output (impedance cardiography) were measured supine and standing. Dose-related, steady-state plasma nicorandil concentrations occurred within 3 to 4 h. Nicorandil's pharmacokinetics were linear with dose. Four 0.20 μg·kg−1·min−1 nicorandil infusions were terminated early primarily because of moderate or severe headaches. There were no safety concerns (ECG intervals, laboratory assays). Blood pressure fell versus placebo only in the standing position and heart rate increased slightly (not significant). That is, standing blood pressure in the 6 to 12 h interval fell from baseline 8.0*/6.8, 1.6/5.1, and 9.8*/7.9* mmHg (systolic/diastolic, *=P〈0.05 versus placebo) at 0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 μg·kg−1·min−1 respectively. Cardiac output increased slightly above placebo at lower doses. Haemodynamic changes correlated poorly with plasma nicorandil concentrations. Similar total doses were less well-tolerated when extended over 12 h. We saw no evidence of pharmacodynamic tolerance to nicorandil within 12 h.

    Central effects of combined bendrofluazide and atenolol administration (1993)

    Notes: Summary Twelve normal male subjects received single oral doses of atenolol 100 mg (AT), bendrofluazide 5 mg (BFZ), combined atenolol 100 mg and bendrofluazide 5 mg (AT/BFZ), diazepam 5 mg (Dz), or one of two matching placebos, on each of 6 study days. Tests of psychomotor performance [digit symbol substitution (DSST), letter cancellation (LCT), continuous attention, choice reaction time (CRT), finger tapping, short-term memory, body sway], physiological measurements [critical flicker fusion (CFF), two-flash fusion (2FF)] and subjective assessments using visual analogue scales (VAS), were performed at 2 and 4 hours post-ingestion. Dz (active control) significantly worsened VAS scores at 2 h (+0.68) and reduced DSST scores at both 2 h (−15.0) and 4 h (−11.0). AT and BFZ given alone, each produced significant worsening of VAS at 2 h [AT +1.0; BFZ +1.38], but had no significant effects on performance. In combination however, AT/BFZ at 4 h produced significant impairment of DSST scores (−10.4), reduced finger tapping (−16.5) and increased involuntary rest pauses (+16.5). Despite these effects, no change in VAS scores occurred. In summary, we have demonstrated significant impairment of psychomotor performance in normal subjects with the AT/BFZ combination, which was not evident with the single agents and which occurred in the absence of a change in subjective awareness. These central effects may have important clinical implications for patients taking combined antihypertensive medication.

    Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Relative Bioavailability of Oral Procaterol (1993)

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and relative oral bioavailability of procaterol, an orally active β2-adrenergic agonist bronchodilator were evaluated in healthy volunteers. Procaterol was rapidly absorbed after oral administration. Mean plasma procaterol concentration–time profiles and pharmacokinetic parameters for both formulations were essentially superimposable. Following tablet administration, the mean C max was 358 pg/mL and the corresponding mean t max was 1.6 hr. Mean renal clearance was 163 mL/min and accounted for approximately one-sixth of the mean apparent oral plasma clearance (988 mL/min). The mean apparent elimination half-life of procaterol was 4.2 hr. Hepatic metabolism appears to be the primary mechanism for elimination of procaterol from the body, and first-pass metabolism may limit systemic bioavailability.
