    Notes: Summary Phenylbutazone treatment can cause digestive-tract hemorrhages, but its concentration in the blood at the time of hemorrhage is generally not known. In two patients who had had digestive tract hemorrhages, the variation in the serum phenylbutazone concentration throughout treatment and just before hemorrhage was simulated by a two-compartment model based on assays (gas-liquid chromatography) made after the hemorrhage. Identification of the parameters of the model and simulation of changes in concentration during therapy suggested that the phenylbutazone level in serum at the time of hemorrhage was 101 and 125 µg/ml respectively.

    Notes: Summary The purpose of this study was to determine whether a concomitant single dose of antacid or multiple doses of antacid administered prior to, and with tolmetin, alter the pharmacokinetics of tolmetin when the drug was administered as a commercially available tablet containing tolmetin sodium. The possible effects of the antacid on plasma concentrations and urinary excretion of tolmetin and its major metabolite were evaluated following administration of: (a) tolmetin sodium alone; (b) antacid four time a day for three days prior to a single dose of tolmetin sodium, with continuation of the antacid during the day tolmetin was given; and (c) co-administration of single doses of tolmetin sodium and antacid. The twenty-four subject study was of the crossover type. There were no significant differences among treatment means for: (i) peak plasma concentrations of both tolmetin and metabolite, (ii) AUC 0–8 h and AUC 0-∞ for both tolmetin and metabolite, (iii) time to peak plasma concentration for both tolmetin and metabolite, (iv) plasma concentrations of both tolmetin and the metabolite at all sampling times (except for tolmetin at 2 h), (v) renal clearance of both tolmetin and its metabolite, and (vi) the amount of metabolite excreted in the 0–24 h urine. There were small, but significant, differences among amounts of tolmetin excreted in the 0–24 h urine. Semilogarithmic plots of both tolmetin and metabolite plasma concentrations past the peak concentrations were curved over the entire 8-h observation period; although the elimination half-life of tolmetin has been reported to be about one hour, the half-life most probably exceeds 2.6 h in most subjects. The results of this study indicate a lack of a significant drug-drug interaction between the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, tolmetin sodium, and a commonly used antacid, which is a mixture of magnesium and aluminium hydroxides.

    Notes: Summary After administration of a single loading dose (80 mg p.o.) of fluorophenindione, the prothrombin level decreased to 37 % in 24 h, and the effect lasted for 48 h. Accordingly, fluorophenindione can be classified as an anticoagulant with an “intermediate” effect. Its elimination half-life was 31 h, which is longer than that of phenindione, because of the greater stability of the fluorinated derivate.

    Notes: Summary The disposition of clofibrate over 96 hours was observed following single oral dose in six patients with acute viral hepatitis, six patients with liver cirrhosis, seven patients with renal insufficiency, and six control subjects. No parameter of the disposition of CPIB (active form of clofibrate) was significantly altered in acute hepatitis. In liver cirrhosis, the mean plasma half-life was unchanged compared to controls (20.9 vs. 17.5 h), but plasma clearance of the non-protein bound drug was reduced (115 vs. 243 ml×min−1), plasma protein binding was reduced (92.8 vs. 97.2 percent), and the apparent volume of distribution was increased (0.20 vs. 0.141×kg−1). In renal insufficiency plasma half-life was prolonged 2 to 6-fold, depending on the degree of renal impairment. Total plasma clearance (3.4 vs. 7.1 ml×min−1) and plasma clearance of the unbound drug (81 vs. 243 ml×min−1 were reduced in patients with renal failure, the clearance of the unbound drug being inversely correlated with the serum creatinine concentration. Renal failure was also associated with decreased protein binding and an increased volume of distribution of CPIB, and with reduced urinary excretion of CPIB and its glucuronide metabolite. The dose of clofibrate should be halved in patients with cirrhosis. In renal insufficiency, the dose should be adjusted according to the individual serum creatinine level: only 10 to 15% of the usual weekly dose should be given in complete renal failure.

    Notes: Summary Twenty paid healthy students ingested diazepam 10 mg 30 min after the administration of ethanol 0.8 g/kg. The alcoholic beverage used was varied in randomized double-blind experiments, which were repeated at one-month intervals. Psychomotor performance, plasma diazepam, and alcohol concentration in breath were measured 30, 60, 90 min and 2, 3, 4, 6 and 24 h after the ingestion of diazepam. Beer and white wine elevated the plasma level of diazepam and the effect lasted for up to 2 h. Whisky elevated the diazepam level for 90 min. Red wine did not affect it significantly. The alcohol-diazepam combination impaired tracking skills and oculomotor co-ordination and enhanced nystagmus, more than diazepam alone. Red wine produced a breath alcohol concentration higher than after white wine. More nystagmus was recorded after red wine and diazepam, although white wine led to a higher plasma diazepam concentration. It appears that simultaneous ingestion of alcohol and diazepam accelerates the absorption of diazepam. This pharmacokinetic alteration may not contribute much to the combined psychomotor effects of diazepam and alcohol, which were mainly due to pharmacodynamic interaction at receptor level.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The time-course of aminopyrine in plasma and of14CO2 in breath was determined for 6 hours after oral administration of (14C-methyl) aminopyrine to healthy controls and to patients with hepatitis and hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatic bilharziasis.14CO2 in breath declined about 1.8 times more slowly than aminopyrine plasma levels, which suggests the occurrence of metabolite demethylation. This was confirmed by the slow elimination of14C from plasma, the formation of14CO2 after aminopyrine had disappeared and the presence of a considerable amount of monomethyl-aminopyrine in plasma. The mean14CO2 concentration in breath was correlated with but was not proportional to aminopyrine clearance, which was attributed to individual differences in aminopyrine half-life. Both a correlation and proportionality were found when14CO2 extrapolated to zero time was used as a parameter of14CO2 production. Hepatic disease affected aminopyrine clearance to a variable extent. In the hepatitis and fibrosis group, aminopyrine clearance was affected in 2 out of five subjects. In all except one cirrhotic subject aminopyrine clearance was markedly decreased. Moreover, in three out of seven cases aminopyrine absorption was impaired, presumably due to decreased gastrointestinal blood-flow. This may produce an erroneously low14CO2 concentration in breath during the first two hours after aminopyrine administration. Hepatic bilharziasis was accompanied by very low aminopyrine clearance in all four cases. In two patients high apparent Vd values were observed, probably due to “first-pass” metabolism. Patients with ascites had Vd values within normal limits.

    Notes: Summary In four refractory epileptic patients, peak plasma levels of sodium valproate occurred within 1.5 to 3 h after a single oral dose of valproate and the decline in plasma levels followed a monoexponential course with a t1/2 of 11.4 ± 0.1 h. The mean value for apparent volume of distribution was 0.176 ± 0.013 l/kg and for total plasma clearance 0.0106 ± 0.0009 l/h/kg. Steady state plasma levels were predicted using the method of superposition utilizing pharmacokinetic parameters determined following a single dose of valproate and were 78–123% of the predicted values for two patients receiving valproate alone, and 37–64% of the predicted values for the two patients receiving carbamazepine in addition to valproate. In a further group of 20 patients the mean daily doses of valproate for 8 patients receiving valproate alone (25.4 ± 4.9 mg/kg) was significantly less than those for the 12 patients receiving concomitant anticonvulsant therapy (41.6 ± 12.3 mg/kg) (p〈0.005). In addition, the steady state predose plasma levels of valproate were significantly higher in the valproate alone patients (90.3 ± 8.7 µg/ml) compared to the patients receiving additional anticonvulsants (75.3 ± 13.8 µg/ml) (p〈0.01). The higher dose requirements of valproate and lower predose and steady state plasma levels for those patients on multiple anticonvulsants indicate an interaction between valproate and other anticonvulsants.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of cephacetrile were studied after its administration as a single i.v. bolus injection of 15 mg/kg body weight to 11 patients with terminal renal inpairment undergoing haemodialysis for 6 h. A two-compartment kinetic model was used to describe the biphasic decrease in plasma concentration. The quantities of antibiotic in the central and peripheral compartments, and the amounts eliminated, were calculated for different times. During haemodialysis sessions, the average pharmacokinetic parameters of cephacetrile determined at the dialyser input were: α=5.03 h−1,β=0.458 h−1, K12=2.337 h−1, K21=1.996 h−1 K13=1.154 h−1, Vc=5.508 l, Vp=6.448 l, Vdss=11.956 l. As a function of the pharmacokinetic parameters of cephacetrile, a regimen of multiple doses was established for patients with terminal renal impairment, which will guarantee safe and effective concentrations of the antibiotic.

    Notes: Summary Plasma levels of protriptyline have been determined in 30 depressed female patients undergoing antidepressant therapy. After 3 1/2 weeks treatment at dosage levels of 40 mg/day, protriptyline plasma levels ranged from 430 to 1430 nmol/l. During this period only two-thirds of the subjects had definitely achieved asymptotic concentrations. Single dose studies in 5 volunteers suggest that the volume of distribution of protriptyline shows little intersubject variation. The half life of the drug, however, may vary appreciably from subject to subject, ranging from 54 to 198 h. The effects of two sedatives on mean protriptyline plasma levels have been determined. Mean plasma levels for nitrazepam recipients are indistinguishable from those for patients receiving no night sedation. The mean plasma levels for a group of patients receiving sodium amylobarbitone were significantly reduced. The problem of choice and early adjustment of dosages in order to achieve satisfactory plasma levels is discussed. For practical purposes it is suggested that early values may be of predictive significance in allowing early dosage adjustments to be made.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of cefoxitin have been determined after a single i.v. injection of 15 mg/kg body weight in 10 patients with normal renal function and 20 patients with varying degrees of renal impairment. The kinetics of the antibiotic followed an open two-compartment model. In patients with normal renal function the following pharmacokinetic parameters were found: $$\begin{gathered} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\alpha = 8.66 h^{ - 1} } & {\beta = 1.21 h^{ - 1} } & {K_{12} = 3.47 h^{ - 1} } \\ \end{array} \hfill \\ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {K_{21} = 3.17 h^{ - 1} } & {K_{13} = 3.15 h^{ - 1} } & {V_c = 4.24 l.} \\ \end{array} \hfill \\ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {V_p = 4.87 l.} & { Vd_{ss} = 9.11 l.} \\ \end{array} \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$$ In the patients with renal impairment there was a significant decrease in $$\mathop \alpha \limits_, \mathop \beta \limits_, $$ K12, K21 and K13, and an increase in the apparent volume of distribution. The degree of plasma protein binding in patients with normal renal function was 73.6% and this was diminished in patients with renal impairment. A linear relationship between K13 of cefoxitin and creatinine clearance was demonstrated. The dosage regimen for patients with renal impairment should be adjusted by modifying the dosage interval whilst maintaining the amount administered.
