    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic and haemodynamic effects of a 200 mg oral dose of BTS 49465 (7-fluoro-1-methyl-3-methylsulphinyl-4-quinolone) were investigated in a double-blind placebo controlled study. BTS 49465 was rapidly absorbed and cleared from the systemic circulation with a half-life of 1.6 h by oxidation to the sulphone metabolite. The metabolite was cleared with a half-life of 37.6 h. Saliva concentrations of both BTS 49465 and its metabolite correlated well with the plasma concentrations. Compared to placebo, BTS 49465 produced statistically significant reductions in blood pressure and increases in heart rate both supine and after a 60° head up tilt. The time course of the haemodynamic changes suggested that the sulphone metabolite contributed to the overall hypotensive response. Plasma Renin Activity was only marginally elevated and there was no evidence of acute fluid retention. BTS 49465 was well tolerated in terms of haematological and biochemical parameters and subjective side-effects.

    Notes: Summary The acute natriuretic effect of human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) has been well described in man. We have now studied possible hormonal mediators of this effect. We studied six healthy volunteers on two occasions when they received either an infusion of ANP of 1.5 pmol·kg−1·min−1 for 30 min followed by 15 pmol·kg−1·min−1 for a further 30 min, or matching vehicle infusions in a randomized single-blind fashion. On the placebo day, plasma renin activity (PRA) rose from 1.26±0.08 to 1.57±0.14 ng A1·ml−1·h−1, while on the ANP study day PRA fell from 1.45±0.15 to 1.28±0.05 ng A1·ml−1·h−1 (p〈0.01). No significant changes were found in plasma aldosterone concentrations or in urinary dopamine excretion. These results provide evidence that ANP suppresses renin release in man.

    Notes: Summary Salbutamol was administered to sixteen healthy male volunteers intravenously and by mouth in liquid, tablet, and capsule form using a Latin-Squares design. Pharmacokinetic parameters from intravenous data were similar to previously reported values obtained with oral administration, with a mean terminal half-life of 3.8 h and a mean clearance of 439 ml·min−1·1.73 m−2. Peak plasma concentrations of 10–20 ng·ml−1 were obtained 1–3 h following oral administration. The absolute bioavailability of each of the oral preparations was 44%. While statistically significant differences in lag time and time to peak concentration were noted among the various oral preparations, the drug is rapidly absorbed in all three dosage forms and the observed differences are unlikely to be of clinical significance.

    Notes: Summary The effect of direct cholinergic stimulation and blockade on gallbladder volume, determined by real-time ultrasonography (RUS), was evaluated in twenty normal, fasting subjects. Eleven subjects received atropine sulphate or placebo and 9 subjects a series of 3 injection of prostigmine, bethanechol or placebo, randomly assigned, at intervals of 24 h. RUS was performed under basal conditions after fasting for 12 h and every 5 min after drug injection up to 45 min in the atropine study and up to 60 min after prostigmine and bethanechol. There was no significant variation from fasting gallbladder volume after placebo in either group. After atropine sulphate gallbladder volume at first decreased and then significantly increased. With bethanechol and prostigmine, the volume fell significantly to a trough after 30 to 35 min, and then it returned to the basal value within 60 min. It is suggested that cholinergic mediation is involved in maintaining fasting tone in the gallbladder and that cholinergic stimulation causes contraction of the gallbladder by a direct effect.

    Notes: Summary The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of cigarette smoking and gender on the pharmacokinetics of metoprolol. Eighteen volunteers with no evidence of clinical disease each randomly received the following doses of metoprolol tartrate: 100 mg orally, 200 mg orally and 20 mg as a constant-rate intravenous infusion over 20 min. The only significant difference between smokers (S) and nonsmokers (NS) was that S had a larger steady-state volume of distribution (3.3 vs 2.5 l/kg). There were no differences in half-life, systemic clearance or bioavailability (f). No differences were observed between males (M) and females (FM) for any of the kinetic parameters examined. Systemic bioavailability varied markedly between subjects (range: 15 to 92%). In fifteen of the eighteen subjects, f was higher after the 200-mg dose compared to the 100-mg dose. These results suggest that metoprolol may be subject to saturable presystemic elimination and extend the previous observations of Johnsson et al. [1] who showed that f increased from 31% to 46% when doses were increased from 20 to 100 mg. However, the difference in f as the dose is increased is unlikely to be clinically significant since the mean difference is smaller than the variation in f among subjects.

    Notes: Summary Pharmacokinetic interactions between antipyrine and acetaminophen were evaluated in 7 healthy volunteers. On 3 occasions subjects received:1, antipyrine 1.0 g intravenously (i.v.);2, acetaminophen 650 mg i.v.;3, antipyrine 1.0 g and acetaminophen 650 mg i.v. simultaneously. Between Trials 1 and 3, antipyrine elimination t1/2 (17.2 vs 17.4 h), clearance (0.44 vs 0.43 ml·min−1·kg−1) and 24-h recovery of antipyrine and metabolites (313 vs 293 mg) did not differ significantly. Between Trials 2 and 3, acetaminophen Vz was reduced (1.14 vs 1.00 l·kg−1), t1/2 prolonged (2.7 vs 3.3 h), clearance reduced (4.8 vs 3.6 ml·min−1·kg−1), and fractional urinary recovery of acetaminophen glucuronide reduced. Eight additional subjects received 50 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride i.v. in the control state, and on a second occasion immediately after antipyrine 1.0 g given i.v. The two trials did not differ significantly in lidocaine Vz (2.6 vs 2.7 l·kg−1), t1/2 (2.0 vs 2.4 h) or clearance (15.0 vs 13.5 ml·min−1·kg−1). Although acetaminophen does not alter antipyrine kinetics, acute administration of antipyrine appears to impair acetaminophen clearance, possibly via inhibition of glucuronide formation. However, antipyrine has no significant effect on the kinetics of a single i.v. dose of lidocaine.

    Notes: Summary Five poor metabolisers (PM) and seven extensive metabolisers (EM), of debrisoquine, all healthy volunteers, received 50 mg indoramin orally following an overnight fast. Plasma concentrations of indoramin and 6-hydroxyindoramin were determined by HPLC with fluorimetric detection. In PM subjects, mean values of Cmax (158 ng/ml) and AUC(0–24) (2556 ng·h·m−1) for indoramin were substantially elevated and t1/2β (18.5 h) prolonged by comparison with values in the EM subjects (21.6 ng/ml, 151 ng·h·ml−1 and 5.2 h respectively). For 6-hydroxyindoramin, on the other hand, Cmax (12.4 ng/ml) and AUC(0–8) (47.5 ng·h·ml−1) in PM subjects were significantly lower than in the EM subjects (28.2 ng/ml and 94.7 ng·h·ml−1). There was a tendency to a higher incidence of side-effects in the PM group. Although the difference did not achieve statistical significance (0.1〉p〉0.05), all the PM subjects experienced sedation compared to only two in the EM group. Differences in blood pressure and pulse rate between the two groups were small. It is concluded that the oxidative metabolism of indoramin is subject to genetic polymorphism, which is probably under the control of the same gene locus as that influencing debrisoquine oxidation. The clinical consequences are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Flumazenil is a specific benzodiazepine antagonist. This study was designed to determine whether it also reverses CNS depression due to acute alcohol intoxication. Intoxication was experimentally induced in 6 healthy volunteers by intravenous infusion of ethanol. Individual constant ethanol plasma concentrations in the range 1.47±0.04 g · l−1 to 1.71±0.03 g · l−1 were maintained over 6 h. Two doses of flumazenil (0.1 or 0.2 mg · kg−1) and placebo were administered intravenously in a randomized, double-blind, two-way cross-over fashion. A battery of psychometric tests and subjective ratings of mood and performance were performed at baseline and at regular intervals during the study. Before the administration of flumazenil the characteristic symptoms and signs of ethanol intoxication were present in all subjects. Performance (measured by visual analogue scales), reaction time, digit symbol substitution test, and a tracing test, were markedly impaired by ethanol. After the injection of flumazenil three volunteers reported some subjective improvement in performance. However, in none of the subjects was there a difference between either dose of flumazenil and placebo in terms of an improvement in the objective psychometric variables.

    Notes: Summary The acute administration of the β-adrenoceptor antagonists propranolol (80 mg) and atenolol (50 mg) on baroreflex function were investigated in healthy volunteers. Two h after administration both propranolol and atenolol significantly prolonged the supine R-R interval (1126, 1128 ms respectively) compared to placebo (1012 ms); systolic arterial pressure also fell (102.9, 102.0 mm Hg respectively) compared to placebo (112.6 mm Hg). Baroreflex function, assessed using glyceryl trinitrate to deactivate the baroreceptors was unchanged by these drugs compared to placebo. Baroreflex sensitivity (slope of the linear regression line relating R-R interval to systolic blood pressure) using phenylephrine to activate the baroreceptors, was also unchanged (17.2, 17.9 ms/mm Hg respectively) compared to placebo (19.9 ms/mm Hg). However both regression lines were shifted (p〈0.05) to the left compared to placebo.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic characteristics of intravenously-administered captopril were investigated in 7 healthy men 20 to 33 years old. Capropril, labeled with14C, was given by injection over a 1 min period at mean doses of 2.78 mg (13.8 µCi), 5.67 mg (28.2 µCi) and 11.4 mg (56.8 µCi). Concentrations of unchanged captopril, captopril disulfide, and other metabolites (collectively) were determined in body fluids. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated for unchanged captopril, and it was shown that the disposition of intravenously-administered drug was linear with respect to dose over the dosage range studied.
