    Notizen: 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.

    Notizen: Abstract Children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) have been reported to require higher doses (per kg body weight) of methotrexate (MTX) than adults with rheumatoid arthritis to control their disease. The purpose of the present study was to characterise the plasma pharmacokinetics of MTX and its major metabolite, 7-hydroxymethotrexate (7-OHMTX) in children, and to compare the results with those previously obtained in adults. Thirteen patients (age 5–16 y) with JRA (median disease duration 5.5 y) were studied after once weekly oral administration of MTX (median 0.21 mg·kg−1). The analytical method was sufficiently sensitive to permit determination of plasma and urinary concentrations of MTX and 7-OHMTX during the entire dose interval in most of the patients. The dose normalized area under the plasma concentration versus time-curve (AUC) of MTX increased with the age of the children and was lower than previously found in adults. The dose normalized AUC of 7-OHMTX was not dependent on age. No correlation was found between the AUCs of MTX and 7-OHMTX. The results suggest that the age-dependence of the pharmacokinetics of MTX might explain the observation that at least some children require higher doses of MTX than adults to obtain a sufficient therapeutic effect.

    Notizen: Abstract Following an overnight fast and 2 days of abstention from caffeine, a single 1.0-g oral dose of antipyrine was administered to 20 obese but otherwise healthy subjects (group A) and 11 healthy volunteers (group B). Weight, Body Mass Index (BMI) and % of Ideal Body Weight (IBW) were significantly greater in the obese than in the lean group. (Mean 110.4 vs 62.7 kg; 38.5 vs 22.3 kg · m−2 and 181vs 106 % respectively). In a subgroup of 6 obese subjects (group C) antipyrine was given again 11.3 months later after a 29.8 kg mean weight loss. Antipyrine apparent volume of distribution (V) and elimination half-life (t 1/2) were significantly greater in the obese than in the lean group (V 49.9 vs 34.3 l respectively; t 1/2 15.5 vs 12.0 h respectively), but its clearance rate (CLo) values were similar. V corrected for total body weight was significantly reduced in group A than in group B (0.45 vs 0.55 l · kg−1 respectively). Stratified comparison of antipyrine pharmacokinetics between obese and lean subjects according to age, gender and smoking habits did not alter the overall results. In group C, weight reduction was associated with a significant decrease in antipyrine V (from 51.8 to 47.5 l) and t 1/2 (from 15.1 to 12.7 h), and a non-significant increase in antipyrine CLo. We conclude that in severely obese subjects, antipyrine total V is mildly increased but V corrected for total body weight is significantly decreased. In addition, obesity is associated with a slight prolongation of antipyrine t 1/2 whereas its CLo is unaltered. These findings may indicate that obesity, even in its extreme form, has a negligible effect on the oxidative metabolic capacity of the liver.

    Notizen: Abstract CHF1194 is an inclusion complex of β-cyclodextrin with the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug piroxicam. In man, β-cyclodextrin acts as a carrier of piroxicam. As the inclusion complex of piroxicam-β-cyclodextrin is wettable and more water soluble, the absorption rate of the drug is increased whilst its other pharmacokinetic characteristics remain unchanged. The aim of the present study in 12 healthy subjects was to compare the oral bioavailability of 20 mg piroxicam in a CHF1194 tablet and a plain piroxicam capsule after a single dose and after two weeks of once daily administration, and also to assess the plasma levels and urinary excretion of β-cyclodextrin after CHF1194 administration. The two treatments were administered in cross-over fashion, separated by a wash-out period of three weeks. Piroxicam, 5′-hydroxypiroxicam and β-cyclodextrin were monitored in plasma and urine for 120 h after the first and last doses. Clinical tolerance was excellent and no adverse event occurred during either phase of the study. The extent of absorption of piroxicam from the CHF1194 tablet after the single dose was equivalent to that after the plain piroxicam capsule, within confidence limits of less than 80–125%. After repeated dosing, CHF1194 yielded the same steady-state systemic concentrations of piroxicam and 5′-hydroxypiroxicam as the reference capsule, and similar excretion pattern of the metabolite. After both single and multiple dosing, piroxicam was absorbed more rapidly after CHF1194, an expected consequence of the complexation of piroxicam with β-cyclodextrin. This may be of therapeutic interest as it might accelerate the onset of pain relief. The pharmacokinetics of piroxicam was linear after the doses used here, suggesting that long term treatment with CHF1194 should not require any change in dosing regimen. Even after 14 days of repeated administration of CHF1194, β-cyclodextrin could not be detected in plasma or urine, suggesting that in man the unchanged oligosaccharide was absorbed to a very small extent.

    Notizen: Abstract Single doses of oral and intravenous furosemide were given to 8 healthy male volunteers (40 mg) and 11 patients with renal failure maintained on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) (80 mg). In the volunteers, absorption was variable. Only one half of the intravenous dose and one third of the oral dose was available for renal pharmacological action as judged by the urinary recovery. In the patients, absorption was also variable and was markedly delayed (t max 128 vs 90 min) but more complete (bioavailability 70.1 vs 53.6%). The differences between the two groups were not significant, however (95% C.I.: -90 to 30 and -40.4 to 7.5 respectively). The mean elimination half-life was significantly longer in the patients following both the oral (228 vs 65.1 min) and intravenous dose (195 vs 60.3 min). The total body clearance of furosemide in the volunteers was 138 ml·min−1 and this was much lower in the CAPD patients (61.9 ml·min−1) in whom the renal clearance was minimal. The peritoneal clearance of furosemide was negligible. Although there were trends indicating differences in absorption between the two groups, the significant differences in furosemide disposition observed in CAPD patients were due to renal failure.

    Notizen: Abstract The effects of chronic exposure to high altitude on the pharmacokinetics of caffeine and cardiogreen (ICG) were examined in eight healthy males (23–35 y) at sea level (SEA) and following 16 days residence at 4300 m (ALT). ICG (0.5 mg · kg−1) was administered as an intravenous bolus and caffeine (4 mg · kg−1) in an orally ingested solution. The concentration of ICG, caffeine, and the primary metabolites of caffeine (MET) were determined in serial blood samples and their pharmacokinetics computed. In comparison to SEA, ALT resulted in a significant decrease in the caffeine half-life (t1/2, 4.7 vs 6.7 h) and area under the curve (2.5 vs 3.7 g · 1−1 · min−1), and increased clearance (117 vs 86 ml · min−1 · 70 kg−1). In ALT the area under the curve of ICG significantly decreased (85 vs 207 mg · 1−1 · min−1) and the volume of distribution and clearance increased (5.2 vs 2.41 and 532 vs 234 ml · min−1 respectively) compared to SEA. There was a significant increase in the AUC ratio of MET to caffeine indicating that either metabolite formation or elimination was increased in ALT. These results demonstrate that in humans, chronic exposure to 4300 m results in the modification of the pharmacokinetics of caffeine and ICG.

    Notizen: Abstract The usual dosage regimen of diltiazem (Tildiem) is 60 mg 3–4 times a day. A sustained-release formulation has been developed (Mono-Tildiem LP 300 mg) in order to allow a single daily administration. Two repeated dosing studies were performed in healthy volunteers. The absolute bioavailability of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was investigated using concomitant i.v. administration of 13C-labelled drug: absolute bioavailability of the “once a day” formulation was 35%. The second study compared sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg with the standard formulation of diltiazem. The results showed that the diltiazem plasma concentrations obtained after the LP formulation remained stable between 2 and 14 h after administration and were compatible with a once a day administration. Relative bioavailability of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was 79.3% compared with diltiazem. Therefore, a unitary dose of sustained-release diltiazem LP 300 mg was chosen as the dose equivalent to the daily dose administered with the standard diltiazem formulation.

    Notizen: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of lorazepam was examined in 10 male patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus before and following treatment with neomycin and cholestyramine. Neomycin and cholestyramine were given in an attempt to block the enterohepatic circulation of lorazepam and so to permit an in vivo estimate of hepatic glucuronidation. The volume of distribution and clearance of free lorazepam in diabetic patients were not significantly different from the corresponding estimates in 14 normal controls. Neomycin and cholestyramine increased the clearance of lorazepam by 63% consistent with their effect in non-diabetic controls. However, patients on beef/pork insulin exhibited a greater than normal increase on this interupting regimen (125%), and had a significantly greater neomycin/cholestyramine cycling-interrupted clearance of lorazepam than either normal controls or patients on human insulin (15.4 vs. 6.96 and 7.87 ml·min−1·kg−1). The clearance was correlated positively and significantly with HbA1c and glycated proteins (fructosamine), but only in patients on human insulin. Thus, the pharmacokinetics of lorazepam was not altered in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. However, it is possible that there are differences in the rate and extent of hepatic glucuronidation and enterohepatic circulation of lorazepam between patients treated with beef/pork and human insulins and between diabetics treated with beef/pork insulin and non-diabetic controls.

    Notizen: Abstract One gram single dose of Pentasa controlled-release capsules was administered to 24 healthy volunteers under fasting condition. Mean plasma 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and acetyl 5-ASA concentrations peaked at 0.53 μg · ml−1 and 1.33 μg · ml−1 from 3 to 4 hours following dosing, respectively. The half-lives of both compounds could not be determined as absorption of 5-ASA was continuous throughout the gastrointestinal tract. An average of 29.4% (CV: 27%) of the dose was excreted in the urine primarily as acetyl 5-ASA. Up to 91.1% of the dose was released from the capsules. Forty percent of the dose (CV: 40%) was eliminated in the feces, with 8.9% of the dose remained as formulation bounded 5-ASA, indicating that controlled-release capsules continue to release drug throughout the GI tract. 5-ASA contributed 46.7% of the salicylates eliminated in the feces and acetyl 5-ASA accounted for the balance. Controlled-release capsules produced three times more total salicylates and 10 times more total and free 5-ASA in the feces than did 5-ASA suspension. Thus, while lower systemic levels of salicylates were absorbed, greater therapeutic quantities of 5-ASA were available in the bowel.

    Notizen: Abstract Thiopental was administered to neurosurgical patients for cerebral protection and its pharmacokinetic parameters were determined after a single bolus of 540, 1000 or 1500 mg (3 subjects) or after multiple doses of 250 mg (5 subjects) and 500 mg (2 subjects) every two hours for up to 7 days. The data were analysed by a two- or three- compartment model and linear kinetics. After a single IV bolus, the mean initial volume of distribution (V1) was 0.4811·kg−1, and the steady-state volume of distribution (Vss) was 2.16 1·kg−1. The distribution (t1/2α) and elimination (t1/2β) half-lives were 0.590 and 5.89 h, respectively, and the mean residence time (MRT) was 7.44 h. The clearance was 5.41 ml·min−1·kg−1. With repeated injections, the pharmacokinetic parameters for each patient were estimated taking into account all administered doses and blood samples, which were taken whenever possible daily at steady state and after the last dose. The variability observed in the pharmacokinetic parameters of thiopental reflected by the coefficient of variation (CV%) was wide but was of similar magnitude within patients (CVintra) as it was between patients (CVinter). The steady-state trough plasma concentration (Cmin obs) ranged from 4.8 to 30 mg·1−1 (mean 16.0 mg·1−1 and median 14.3 mg·1−1). Peak concentrations (Cmax obs) ranged from 8.35 to 45 mg·1−1 (25.4 mg·1−1, and median 23.3 mg·1−1). The values of V1 and Vss were similar to those obtained after a single dose. For V1, the mean was 0.333 1·kg−1. The mean Vss was 2.68 1·kg−1, with a CVintra of 12.6 to 56% and a CVinter of 13.2%. A shorter distribution half-life t1/2α was noted on multiple dosing; the mean value was 0.122 h. The elimination half-life t1/2β and the mean residence time became longer due to a decrease in clearance. For t1/2β the mean value was 16.3 h. The mean MRT was 21.9 h, CVintra 9.19 to 48.5%, and the CVinter 35.3%. The mean clearance was 2.16 ml·min−1·kg−1, CVintra 7.28 to 25.5%, and the CVinter 20.4%. This value is 50% lower than after a single dose. Identification of the kinetic parameters of thiopental allows simulation of the effects of doses on subsequent plasma levels and will permit a priori prediction of day to day adjustment of drug dosage.

    Notizen: Abstract A computer program applying the principle of maximum entropy to the analysis of drug absorption rate has been developed. Plasma concentrations of amoxicillin obtained after oral and intravenous dosing have been analysed, together with simulated data corresponding to a complex input. Amoxicillin absorption rates devised by the program were similar to those obtained by a standard deconvolution method, although they were displayed as an almost continuous profile. However, improbable fluctuations were obtained with some data sets and the fraction absorbed was underestimated by 13%. With the simulated data, the maximum entropy program did not provide a better solution than the standard deconvolution procedure, and it was sensitive to the addition of random error and to the number of samples. The maximum entropy principle, as implemented in our computer program, may not have a better performance than standard deconvolution procedures, especially in human experiments where the number of blood samples is usually limited.

    Notizen: Summary A previously described GLC method has been modified and applied to measurement of antipyrine levels in plasma, blood and saliva of man following administration of a single oral dose (10 mg/kg). The levels in blood and saliva were comparable to those in plasma at every time studied. The half life of antipyrine determined in blood, plasma or saliva in any given individual was similar. The intersubject variation in half-life was about two-fold (n=5). Antipyrine levels in saliva were not affected by the rate of saliva flow when collections were made continuously for 20 minutes. This study has demonstrated that kinetic data about antipyrine comparable to that from plasma may also be obtained from readily accessible tissue fluids, such as saliva and capillary blood.

    Notizen: Summary A gas chromatographic method has been employed to determine chlorthalidone in plasma and whole blood after therapeutic doses. Radioactively labelled chlorthalidone was used for in vitro studies of the uptake of chlorthalidone from plasma by red blood cells. Chlorthalidone was markedly concentrated in red cells and as a compartment they would account for at least 30% of total drug in the body after multiple doses. The ratio between the plasma and red cell concentration of chlorthalidone varied between individuals. After a single oral dose of 50 mg in 6 healthy volunteers chlorthalidone was eliminated with a half-life of 51 to 89 hours. The apparent volume of distribution varied between 3 and 13 1/kg and the clearance between 53 and 145 ml/min. The mean steady-state plasma concentrations during treatment with a standard dose of 50 mg daily (n=10) varied 5-fold between individuals. During the steady state approximately 50% of the daily dose was excreted unchanged in the urine during 24 hrs. The plasma levels observed in patients were higher than those predicted from the single oral dose studies in healthy volunteers.

    Notizen: Summary The effects of sotalol after oral administration were measured on the tachycardia induced by strenuous exercise in normal subjects. Plasma sotalol levels were also determined. The oral administration of sotalol (50, 100, 200 and 400 mg) to 6 subjects produced a progressive reduction in the tachycardia induced by severe exercise. This was similar to the effects of 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 mg given to different subjects. Each increase in sotalol dose produced a successively greater reduction in exercise tachycardia. This did not appear to be maximum even with 800 mg. Oral sotalol was rapidly absorbed and produced peak blood levels in 2 – 3 hours. The plasma levels of sotalol measured 2 hours after the oral administration of 25 to 800 mg showed never more than a six-fold variation between different subjects. The half-life of sotalol in plasma was 12.7 ± SE 1.6 hours. There was a significant correlation between the logarithm of the plasma sotalol concentration and the percentage reduction of exercise heart rate. It is concluded that the oral administration of sotalol either once or twice daily (depending on dose level) will provide satisfactory 24-hour blockade of β-adrenoceptors.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics and relative bioavailability of cyclobarbital calcium have been studied after oral administration of Phanodorm, of tablets according to the Formularium Nederlandse Apothekers (1968; FNA), and an aqueous solution. Six healthy volunteers participated in the investigation on three occasions and each received the three preparations. The dose administered was 300 mg cyclobarbital calcium. Plasma concentrations of cyclobarbital were determined at regular intervals. Absorption from the three preparations was rapid and was faster from the solution. Peak concentrations were usually attained within 1 h. The elimination of cyclobarbital could be described by a single first-order process with an average half-life of 11.6 h (range 8 – 17 h). There was little intra-subject variation of the half-life. Relative bioavailability for each volunteer was estimated by comparing the areas under the plasma concentration curves. The FNA-tablets and Phanodorm exhibited similar bioavailability, whereas the average bioavailability of the solution was 78% of that of FNA-tablets; the reason for this unexpected finding is unknown. It was concluded that cyclobarbital cannot be regarded as a uniformly suitable drug for the treatment of insomnia. The long half-life that was apparent in some of the volunteers (15 – 17 h) creates a substantial risk of residual effects on the following morning. In principle, however, the calcium salt of cyclobarbital may be used for induction of sleep, because of its rapid absorption.

    Notizen: Abstract Sumatriptan is classified as a vascular 5HT1 receptor agonist and is effective in the acute treatment of migraine and cluster headache. Sumatriptan is available as an injection for subcutaneous administration and as a tablet for oral administration. The pharmacokinetics of sumatriptan differ depending on the route of administration. The mean subcutaneous bioavilability is 96% compared to 14% for the oral tablet. The lower bioavailability following oral administration is due mainly to presystemic metabolism. The inter-subject variability in plasma sumatriptan concentrations is greater following oral administration and a faster rate of absorption of drug into the systemic circulation is achieved following subcutaneous dosing. The pharmacokinetics of sumatriptan are linear up to a subcutaneous dose of 16 mg. Following oral dosing up to 400 mg, the pharmacokinetics are also linear, with the exception of rate of absorption, as indicated by a dose dependent increase in time to peak concentration. Sumatriptan is a highly cleared compound that is eliminated from the body primarily by metabolism to the pharmacologically inactive indoleacetic acid analogue. Both sumatriptan and its metabolite are excreted in the urine. Although the renal clearance of sumatriptan is only 20% of the total clearance, it exceeds the glomerular filtration rate, indicating that sumatriptan undergoes active renal tubular secretion. Sumatriptan has a large apparent volume of distribution (170 1) and an elimination half-life of 2 h. Oral doses of sumatriptan were administered as a solution of dispersible tablets and subcutaneous dosing was by injection into the arm. In clinical practice, sumatriptan is administered as a film coated tablet or by subcutaneous injection into the thigh.

    Notizen: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) were studied after a single subcutaneous dose given by jet-injection, and have been compared with the results obtained after conventional needle-injection. Twelve healthy male volunteers completed an open label, randomised, two-way crossover study, with a 7-day washout period between the two single sc doses. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived from rhGH concentrations in blood samples collected regularly over 24 h after dosing on Day 1 of each period. To investigate the pharmacodynamics, additional samples were taken for the analysis of somatomedin C (IGF-I) and free fatty acids (FFA). A higher and earlier Cmax was found after jet-injection (ratio (%) jet-injected/needle-injected 124; 90%-confidence interval 108 – 142). The AUC0−∞ for rhGH were similar (ratio (%) jet-injected/needle-injected 98; 90%-confidence interval 93 – 103). Both treatments were associated with a significant and similar rise in IGF-I. Both administrations of rhGH were associated with identical rhythmical changes in FFA. The study indicates that jet-injected and needle-injected rhGH are bioequivalent with respect to the amount absorbed. The criterion for bioequivalence is not met for the rate of absorption. It is unlikely that the latter finding will influence the pharmacodynamics of rhGH, since bioequipotency was established for the effect on IGF-I generation. Jet-injection was safe in use and was generally well tolerated.

    Notizen: Abstract This was a 2-period randomized, crossover study in 8 healthy males to determine the effects of cimetidine (400 mg q.i.d. for 6 days) on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic effects of the angiotensin II receptor antagonist, losartan (100 mg). Cimetidine increased the AUC for losartan 18% without affecting the AUC for E-3174, the active metabolite of losartan. The increase in plasma renin activity following losartan was not affected by cimetidine (maximum mean increases 12.6 and 12.1 ng Ang I·ml−1·h−1 without and with cimetidine, respectively). These results indicate that cimetidine does not appear to alter the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of losartan to a clinically significant extent.

    Notizen: Abstract Quinidine is a very potent inhibitor of CYP2D6, but the role of the enzyme in the biotransformation of quinidine has only been investigated in a single in vitro study and in two small in vivo experiments, with contradictory results. The present investigation was designed to present definite evaluation of whether quinidine is metabolised by CYP2D6. Eight poor metabolizers (PM) and 8 extensive metabolizers (EM) of sparteine each took one oral dose of 200 mg quinidine. In the EM, the total clearance, the clearance via 3-hydroxylation and the clearance via N-oxidation, were 33, 3.7 and 0.23 l·h−1, respectively. In the PM, the corresponding values were 29, 3.1 and 0.18 l·h−1, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between EM and PM in any of these pharmacokinetic parameters. It is concluded that CYP2D6 is not an important enzyme for the oxidation of quinidine.

    Notizen: Abstract The single-dose pharmacokinetics of nefazodone (NEF) and its metabolites hydroxynefazodone (HO-NEF) and m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) were examined in 12 healthy younger subjects ≤55 years of age (YNG), 12 elderly subjects ≥65 years of age (ELD), 12 patients with biopsy proven hepatic cirrhosis (HEP) and 12 patients with moderate renal impairment (REN), ClCR 20–60 ml·min−1. The study was of parallel group design, with each of the four subject groups receiving escalating single oral doses of 50, 100 and 200 mg of nefazodone at 1 week intervals. Serial blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis were collected for 48 h following each dose and plasma samples were assayed for NEF, HO-NEF and mCPP by a validated HPLC method. Single oral doses up to 200 mg of nefazodone were well tolerated by all subjects. Maximum plasma levels of NEF and HO-NEF were generally attained within 1 h after administration of nefazodone. HO-NEF and mCPP plasma levels were about 1/3 and 〈1/10 those of NEF, respectively. There were no apparent gender-related pharmacokinetic differences in any group of subjects. NEF and HO-NEF pharmacokinetics were dose dependent in all four subject groups; a superproportional increase in AUC and an increase in t1/2 with increasing dose was obtained, indicative of nonlinear pharmacokinetics. Relative to normal subjects, elderly and cirrhotic subjects exhibited increased systemic exposure to NEF and HO-NEF, as reflected by AUC, at all doses of nefazodone; subjects with moderate renal impairment did not. Elderly and cirrhotic patients may require lower doses of NEF to achieve and maintain therapeutic effectiveness.

    Notizen: Abstract The steady-state pharmacokinetics of nefazodone (NEF) and its metabolites hydroxynefazodone (HO-NEF) and m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) were compared in subjects with normal and impaired renal function. Patients: The Study was of parallel group design which included 7 subjects with normal (NOR) renal function, CLCR≥72 ml·min−1·1.73 m−2, 6 with moderate (MOD) renal impairment, CLCR 31–60 ml·min−1·1.73 m−2 and 9 with severe (SEV) renal impairment, CLCR≤30 ml·min−1·1.73 m−2. Subjects in each renal function group received a 100-mg oral dose of nefazodone hydrochloride BID for 7 days and a single morning dose on day 8. Starting 48 h after the last 100-mg dose, 200-mg doses were administered on a similar schedule to 3, 4 and 3 subjects from each renal function group (NOR, MOD and SEV, respectively). Single trough blood samples just prior to each morning dose (Cmin) and serial samples after the dose on day 8 were obtained at each dose level for pharmacokinetic analysis. Plasma samples were assayed by a specific HPLC method for NEF, HO-NEF and mCPP. The CMIN data indicated that steady state was attained by the third day of BID administration of both the 100- and 200-mg doses of nefazodone, regardless of degree of renal function. Both NEF and HO-NEF attained steady-state Cmax within 2 h after administration of nefazodone; tmax for mCPP was less defined and more delayed. HO-NEF and mCPP plasma levels were about 1/3 and 〈1/10 those of NEF, respectively, regardless of the status of renal function. Steady-state systemic exposure of NEF and HO-NEF, as reflected by AUC and Cmax, and elimination t1/2 values did not differ significantly among renal function groups. Conclusion: The study results suggest that dose adjustments may not be necessary, but nefazodone should be used with caution in the presence of severe renal impairment.

    Notizen: Abstract In congestive heart failure patients the kinetics of felodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist, show interpatient differences after acute i.v. administration that disappear after 8 weeks oral treatment with a change in kinetics in the patients with the largest clearances (CL) and the smallest volumes of distribution (V SS). Pharmacokinetic and haemodynamic data were combined to construct a haemodynamic-pharmacokinetic model. This model shows that the differences between the patients in i.v. pharmacokinetics are consistent with a difference in plasma flow distribution between liver and poorly perfused tissues. In patients in whom kinetics changed, felodipine treatment is supposed to cause a redistribution of flow from liver to peripheral tissues, accompanied by a decreased work load of the heart and a larger increase in VO2max during therapy than in the other patients, whose workload increased. This suggests a better therapeutic response in the patients whose kinetics changed. As change in kinetics is related to felodipine CL and CL to liver plasma flow, felodipine CL or even indocyanine CL might be predictive for the therapeutic effect of felodipine.

    Notizen: Abstract 447C88 (N-Heptyl-N′-(2,4 difluoro-4-6-(2(-4-(2,2 dimethylpropyl)phenyl)ethyl)phenyl)urea) is an inhibitor of human microsomal AcylCoA:Cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) with an IC50 of 10.2 ng·ml−1 (23 nM). It is poorly absorbed but 5 mg·kg−1·day−1 completely abolishes the rise in plasma cholesterol in cholesterol-fed rats. In this study, twelve healthy, male volunteers received single, oral doses of 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 mg of 447C88 (n+8) or placebo (n+4) with food in a double-blind study with at least a week between occasions. The 400 mg dose was repeated after an overnight fast. Subsequently, fourteen different volunteers received a single 200 mg dose of 447C88 (n+8) or placebo (n+6) with food and, a week later, the same dose twice daily for 10 days; all doses were given with food. All doses were well tolerated with no significant changes in vital signs, full blood counts or plasma biochemical profiles. Plasma concentrations of 447C88 were unquantifiable after the fasting dose and low after all other doses. Mean Cmax and AUC were 1.8 ng·ml−1 and 9.0 ng·ml−1·h after 200 mg rising to 5.4 ng·ml−1 and 23.8 ng·ml−1·h respectively after 800 mg; t1/2 was 1.3 to 5.2 h. After 10 days dosing, plasma 447C88 concentrations were higher in the evening than the morning probably due to administration of the evening dose with more food. There were no significant changes in plasma triglcerides or total, LDL- or HDL-cholesterol after dosing with 447C88.

    Notizen: Summary The nonlinear disposition kinetics of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) were investigated in 6 patients with colorectal carcinoma. Each patient randomly received two single, intravenous doses of 5-FU (7.5 and 15 mg/kg) on separate days. Venous blood and urine samples were collected just prior to and for 5 h after drug administration. In addition to the kinetic studies, the in vitro whole blood/plasma concentration ratio and stability of 5-FU at 37°C were determined in whole blood from normal volunteers and from 5 patients with colorectal carcinoma. A disproportionate increase in area under the curve and corresponding decrease in total body clearance with increasing dose was observed suggesting dose-dependent behavior of 5-FU. Doubling the dose was accompanied by a 36% decrease in nonrenal clearance but no apparent change in renal clearance. Therefore, the mechanism for dose-dependent elimination appears to be primarily associated with nonrenal processes. The mean 5-FU half-life following the high dose was nearly twice as long as that observed for the low dose (12.3 versus 6.2 min). The log-linear decline in plasma concentrations and increase in half-life with dose suggest the potential role of product-inhibition as an explanation for the observed nonlinearity in 5-FU elimination. The present study demonstrates that 5-FU degrades when incubated in whole blood. This most likely reflects metabolism in red blood cells or other blood-formed elements since 5-FU was stable in plasma. Although degradation in whole blood occurs, the estimated whole blood clearance does not contribute significantly to the observed total body clearance value. These findings suggest the possibility of pulmonary clearance of 5-FU.

    Notizen: Summary Three ranges of doses of growth hormone releasing factor (2.5–80 µg, 80–320 µg and 75–600 µg) were intravenously administered to healthy young volunteers in three double blind studies. Serum circulating GRF levels were determined by radioimmunoassay. Experimental concentration curves were fitted, using the extended least squares method, to a biexponential model for the structural model and power function for the variance model. The power variance model, compared to the constant variance model greatly reduced the coefficient of variation of the biexponential parameters. The power of the variance model was estimated to be 1.95. The distribution half-life was 6.6 min and the elimination half-life was 39.0 min (harmonic means). Total clearance was 0.12±0.01 µg/l/min. No difference between these parameters was found for the various doses. GRF kinetics was linear established in the range 10 to 600 µg which means that elimination was not altered by the increased doses.

    Notizen: Summary Twenty one patients with liver disease (cirrhosis 11, chronic hepatitis 5 and acute hepatitis 5) and 6 healthy volunteers were given a single i.v. dose of nitrendipine 5 mg. Afterwords nitrendipine 20 mg once daily were administered orally for seven days. With the intravenous injection a significant increase in the AUC and elimination half-life of nitrendipine was found in patients with cirrhosis as compared to the normal volunteers. After chronic oral dosing, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve, AUC (0–24), was 94.5 ng ml−1 h and the plasma clearance CL was 1380.6 ml/min in the healthy controls; in patients with cirrhosis the AUC (0–24) h was significantly greater at 309.4 ng ml−1 h and CL had fallen to 686.6 ml/min. Considerable accumulation of nitrendipine was also found in the patients with chronic hepatitis. Nitrendipine could not be detected in urine from any of the subjects. Blood pressure and heart rate were not significantly influenced by the treatment in the various groups investigated. Antipyrine clearance in the patients with cirrhosis was correlated with the nitrendipine plasma clearance. Thus, accumulation of nitrendipine has been demonstrated in the patients with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis.

    Notizen: Summary The plasma levels and excretion of tritium-labeled iloprost in healthy elderly male and female volunteers have been measured after i.v. infusion of 2 ng·kg−1·min−1 for 4 h and oral administration of 0.1 and 0.48 μg/kg. During infusion, a steady-state of labeled compounds in the plasma was not achieved. Total radioactivity declined from a mean of 408 pg equiv/ml in three phases, with half-lives of 24 min, 1.7 h and 5.0 h, respectively. A steady-state of unchanged iloprost was reached rapidly with a peak of 81 pg/ml. Plasma levels declined biphasically with half-lives of 6 min and 31 min. Total clearance was 24 ml· min−1·kg−1. Maximum concentrations of labeled substances after oral administration were 307 and 1,051 pg equiv/ml after 29 and 39 min respectively. The peak of unchanged iloprost (116 pg/ml) was observed 7.5 min after an oral dose of 0.48 μg/kg. Bioavailability was 16%. Iloprost was totally metabolized and the metabolities were mainly excreted in urine. The main biotransformation products in plasma and urine were tentatively identified by cochromatography as dinor-and tetranoriloprost and their glucuronides. ADP-induced platelet aggregation was reduce by 60% during the i.v. infusion and 15 min after oral administration of 0.48 μg/kg. Heart rate and blood pressure were virtually unaffected. Common side-effects were facial flush, headache and nausea.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics of disopyramide were determined in 10 healthy volunteers after a 300 mg oral dose and again after a 2mg/kg i.v. dose. The unbound clearance was 599 ml/min and the unbound renal clearance 310 ml/min. The terminal elimination rate constant of unbound drug was 0.180 h−1 after the i.v. dose and 0.203 h−1 after the oral dose. The absorption rate constant was 0.53−1 and the maximum peak concentration occurred after 3.2 h. The bioavailability was 0.809 using the area under the unbound plasma concentration time curve. Although a saturable plasma protein binding was found in all subjects the bioavailability using the total concentration, in contrast to theoretical expectations, showed the same value (0.813) as the unbound concentrations.

    Notizen: Summary The influence of plasmapheresis (PA) on the elimination kinetics of ceftazidime (Cef) has been investigated. A single dose of Cef was administered intravenously to 11 patients with autoimmune diseases and varying degrees of renal impairment (Group I CLCR〈50 ml/min, Group II CLCR〉50 ml/min). In Groups I and II the mean total clearance of Cef (CL) was 30 and 116 ml/min−1, respectively. The elimination half-life (t1\2β) and the volume of distribution (V) were significantly higher in Group I than in Group II (11.9 vs 2.0 h, 27.1 vs 18.5 l). PA had no influence on the plasma level-time profile of Cef. The amount of Cef recovered from separated plasma accounted for only 2 to 9% of the administered dose, being particularly low in patients with normal renal function (4.6%). Thus, since elimination of Cef via PA is negligible, dosage calculations should be based solely on renal function.

    Notizen: Summary The mechanism of the theophylline-enoxacin interaction has been studied in six healthy subjects. Theophylline 250 mg was administered p.o., twice daily for 11 days in a sustained release dosage form. On the 4th day of treatment, blood samples were taken every 2 h and urine was collected over 1 dose interval. From Days 5 to 11 coated tablets of enoxacin 400 mg b.i.d. were coadministered. On Day 11 blood and urine were collected as on Day 4. The mean plasma theophylline concentration rose from 4.4 to 15.1 mg/l, corresponding to a 73.6% reduction in total clearance. The urinary excretion of unchanged theophylline increased from 12.7 to 35.3%, whereas the production of metabolites was reduced (1-demethylation 81.4%; 3-demethylation 83.1%, 8-hydroxylation 74.6%). The results indicate that the theophylline-enoxacin interaction may be due to inhibition of the cytochrome P-450 isozymes responsible for theophylline metabolism. Unexpectedly, the renal clearance of theophylline metabolites was found to be drastically reduced when enoxacin was coadministered. This led to unchanged or even to elevated plasma levels of the metabolites. The mechanism of this interaction is still to be elucidated, but it may be due to competition for renal tubular secretion.

The absorption judged by total % of the dose excreted in urine and Cmax, tmax, AUC and Kabs in plasma, was not significantly different before and after iron therapy or correction of anaemia. However, sulphadimidine absorption by the anaemic patients was significantly greater than in normals.

    Notizen: Summary The duration and extent of cardiac beta-blockade and their relationship to propranolol pharmacokinetics were assessed in nine healthy volunteers. Each subject received 160 mg of regular propranolol (R), 160 mg of sustained-release propranolol (SR) and no drug (control), both as single doses and once daily for 7 days. After single doses and at steady-state, both products caused a decrease in exercise heart rate for at least 24 h, compared to control. The time course of effect was similar to the time course of serum propranolol concentration. The oral clearance of propranolol decreased from single doses to steady-state for both R and SR; however, the difference achieved statistical significance only for R. These changes were reflected in mean accumulation ratios (AUC steady-state 0–24 h/AUC single dose 0-infinity) of 1.49 and 1.68 for R and SR, respectively. The pharmacokinetic data are consistent with a decrease in intrinsic hepatic clearance of propranolol, leading to an increase in bioavailability at steady-state. Despite a two-fold difference in the bioavailability of R and SR, there was no difference in the area under the effect-time curve at steady-state.

    Notizen: 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.

    Notizen: Summary The disposition of monodesethylamodiaquine was studied in four healthy subjects after a single oral dose of 10 mg/kg amodiaquine base. Amodiaquine was not found in any sample, but the major metabolite monodesethylamodiaquine was detected and was assumed to be the sole derivative that contributed significantly to antimalarial activity in the blood. The best fit for the decay of the metabolite was obtained with a three-compartment model. The half-lives of the first two phases were 3.2 to 11.4 h for t1/2α1 and 22.7 to 50.3 h for t1/2α2 in plasma. The half-life of the terminal phase ( t1/2β) was between 9 and 18.2 days. The concentration in whole blood was 4- to 6-times higher than in plasma. Three schedules (alternate days, weekly, daily) of the conventional prophylactic dose of 10 mg/kg per week were compared in six other healthy subjects. There were significant differences in the plasma monodesethylamodiaquine levels between the three schedules.

    Notizen: Summary We have studied the pharmacokinetics of ketanserin in 6 hypertensive patients after a single oral 40 mg dose and at steady-state after 4 weeks treatment with 20 mg and then 40 mg 12-hourly. Pharmacokinetic variables after a single dose were similar to those reported in healthy volunteers, with median values for Cmax 112 ng·ml−1, tmax 1 h, and t1/2 19 h. The corresponding values for the metabolite ketanserinol were Cmax 155 ng·ml−1, tmax 2 h, and t1/2 25 h. The median AUC was 3.3 times greater for ketanserinol than for the parent drug. These results were used to predict the mean steady-state plasma concentrations of ketanserin and ketanserinol. Predicted values were on average similar to those observed after four weeks treatment with 40 mg 12-hourly, although there were marked differences between the observed and predicted values in some patients. There was no evidence of time- or dose-dependent kinetics for ketanserin, but the study had insufficient power to exclude the occurrence of these phenomena entirely.

    Notizen: Summary We have studied the pharmacokinetics of the anti-mycotic ketoconazole in seven patients who took it for 1–6 months at a dose of 200 mg daily. The mean elimination half-life of the drug was 3.3 h, and although the ketoconazole was given only once daily, a satisfactory clinical response was obtained in all seven individuals. Only a small fraction of the absorbed drug (mean 0.22%) was excreted unchanged in the urine, suggesting almost complete metabolism. Our results support the concept that anti-mycotic activity in the tissues continues after the plasma drug concentration has fallen below a critical level. Our results also support the concept of a change in pharmacokinetics with chronic dosing.

    Notizen: Summary We have fitted a first-order multicompartment pharmacokinetic model to plasma platinum concentrations measured in nine ovarian cancer patients who received intravenous infusions of cisplatin for 6 h. The time-course of ultrafilterable plasma platinum was similar in all patients studied, and was fitted by a single compartment within the limits of experimental detection. However, the time-course of protein-bound platinum showed marked differences between patients, the differences being explained by distribution to two peripheral compartments. The wide inter-patient variation observed in protein-bound plasma platinum concentrations supports the view that pharmacokinetic modelling should be carried out separately for each patient, since averaging plasma concentrations would have obscured some individual pharmacokinetic characteristics.

    Notizen: 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.

    Notizen: Summary The study was undertaken to look for a correlation between the measured elimination rate constants (k) of aminoglycosides and creatinine during haemodialysis. The pharmacokinetics of aminoglycosides were studied during 44 courses of haemodialysis in 21 patients. The measured k of gentamicin and tobramycin from the start until 30 min after the end of haemodialysis (mean 0.18 h−1; t1/2=3 h 51 min) was significantly correlated with the measured k of creatinine (mean 0.13 h−1; t1/2=5 h, 20 min), and also with the gentamicin and tobramycin k during haemodialysis (mean 0.20 h−1, t1/2=3 h, 28 min), as predicted by a computer program. Thus, serum concentrations of aminoglycosides 30 min after haemodialysis can be estimated by simple regression equations. However, because the measured and predicted values may diverge considerably in the individual patient, monitoring of aminoglycoside concentrations in serum after haemodialysis remains necessary.

    Notizen: Summary Two patients with cysticercosis received praziquantel (PZQ) 75 mg/kg/day orally together with 30 mg prednisone daily for 3 weeks. The first patient presented with grand-mal seizures, a pyramidal tract syndrome and subcutaneous cysticerci, and the other had internal hydrocephalus necessitating drainage. Serial plasma samples were taken after the first dose of PZQ. Lumbar CSF was obtained from the first patient and ventricular CSF from the second. Subcutaneous cysticerci were removed from the first patient. PZQ in the specimens was assayed by GLC. For distribution between plasma and CSF a rate constant of 4.9 h−1 for free PZQ, corresponding to a t1/2 of 8 min or less for the non-protein bound fraction was calculated for Patient 1. In the second patient the distribution was so rapid that the rate constant could not be calculated. The difference in distribution rate might have been due to use of different sampling times or to a time lag in the entry of PZQ between the ventricles and the lumbar sac. The rate constant for distribution of the drug between plasma and parasites was 1.4 h−1, corresponding to a t1/2 of 30 min or less. Thus PZQ penetrates rapidly into the CSF. It enters the parasite more slowly, although still more rapidly than the plasma half-life of PZQ (1–1 1/2 h).

    Notizen: Summary Seven women were treated with metoprolol 50–100 mg twice daily for hypertension in pregnancy. The disposition of metoprolol and one of its metabolites alfa-OH-metoprolol was studied in venous plasma and amniotic fluid during labour, in mixed cord plasma and in capillary blood of the newborn. Peak concentrations of metoprolol and alfa-OH-metoprolol were reached 60 to 120 min after dosing in maternal plasma while the amniotic fluid levels of these compounds continued to increase from 60 to 180 min to the end of the study and were substantially higher than in the plasma after 4 to 5 h. It is postulated that a major fraction of metoprolol and alfa-OH-metoprolol reaches the amniotic fluid via the fetal urine and that the elimination from the amniotic fluid mainly proceeds via diffusion across fetal membranes and transfer across the fetal capillary bed. No measurable concentrations of metoprolol were found in two of the newborns 2 h after delivery. In the remaining four neonates the 2-h concentrations exceeded the corresponding cord plasma levels. In all neonates the alfa-OH-metoprolol levels in the capillary blood were higher 2 h after birth than in cord blood. In two newborns the metabolite levels continued to increase for 5 h and in one the highest blood concentrations of this metabolite was found 20 h after birth. Redistribution of metoprolol from tissue stores followed by metabolism might be the cause of these temporary elevations of the blood levels of metoprolol and alfa-OH-metoprolol.

Peak PEMA serum levels were obtained within 4 h of intake, half-life values ranged from 30.7–57.9 h in these elderly men. The elimination half-life was twice as long when compared to a study previously performed in young volunteers.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics of the antikaliuretic amiloride has been studied in healthy controls and in patients with chronic renal failure or hepatitis. It was 40% bound to protein. In healthy volunteers 49% of an oral dose was recovered unchanged in the urine. The renal clearance of amiloride was about 3 times the creatinine clearance, which means that it was predominantly excreted via tubular secretion. Renal impairment reduced the clearance of amiloride, causing a prolongation of the t1/2 and drug accumulation in plasma. In hepatitis the t1/2 of amiloride was prolonged and the AUC increased. Urinary recovery (Ae) of amiloride was greater in hepatitis patients than in controls.

    Notizen: Summary In order to determine the rate and degree of redistribution of morphine within the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and whether it was affected by the site of and volume of the injection, morphine was given to 23 elderly patients undergoing thoracotomy — in 10 ml saline in the lumbar epidural interspace (n=5), in 10 ml saline in the thoracic epidural interspace (n=5), in 2 ml saline in the thoracic interspace (n=8) and in 10 ml saline in the lumbar epidural interspace (n=5). The plasma concentration of morphine in all patients was comparable and was much lower than in the CSF. The CSF morphine concentration, measured as the area under the CSF concentration curve (AUC), the maximal CSF concentration (Cmax) and the time to reach maximal CSF concentration (tmax), varied between the four groups. The variation was related to the site of the injection; the AUC and Cmax were lower and tmax appeared later after thoracic than lumbar injection. Lumbar CSF morphine concentrations were further reduced by thoracic epidural injection of morphine in a small as compared to a large volume. The permeability of the dura to morphine was not influenced by the volume used. The results show that morphine is not homogenously distributed within the CSF. The availability of morphine to CSF from the epidural space is not altered by the injection volume, but the drug remains more localized in CSF after epidural injection of morphine in a small volume. The findings imply that epidural injection of morphine in a small volume at a site of nociceptive input should evoke spinal analgesia with least risk of supraspinally mediated side effects.

    Notizen: Summary The effect of pentobarbital treatment in a mean dose of 30 mg/kg/day on the clearance of hexobarbital (Evipan) and dipyrone (Novalgin) has been evaluated in critical care patients receiving a large number of drugs as comedication. Eleven patients treated with pentobarbital showed a hexobarbital half-life of 2.79 h and a total plasma clearance of 9.80 ml·min−1·kg−1 as compared to 10 patients without pentobarbital administration in whom there was a significantly longer half life (6.92 h) and lower clearance (2.97 ml·min−1·kg−1). The kinetics of hexobarbital were correlated with the urinary excretion of D-glucaric acid, a non-invasive parameter of drug metabolising activity. In 10 patients on pentobarbital, the total plasma clearance of N-4-methylaminoantipyrine, the active form of dipyrone, did not differ from that in 8 patients not receiving pentobarbital. As drug kinetics show great variability in these patients, it is difficult to discriminate enzyme induction from other mechanisms, for example competitive inhibition or changes in volume of distribution. In the presence of pentobarbital, however, induction of drug metabolising enzymes should be considered as a possible reason for the higher clearance of hexobarbital.

    Notizen: Summary A sensitive HPLC assay has been used to determine the effect of food on plasma endralazine levels in 8 patients with essential hypertension. Subjects were investigated whilst on maintenance therapy with endralazine combined with a fixed antihypertensive baseline treatment for at least 4 weeks, samples being collected after the usual oral morning dose of endralazine (5 mg and 10 mg), on two occasions at least 7 days apart. Endralazine was administered with the concomitant therapy in randomised order once 90 min before and once immediately after a standard breakfast. Acetylator status did not affect its pharmacokinetics in the postprandial study after a 5 mg dose, the peak endralazine concentration averaged 57.5% lower and the AUC had fallen significantly by 49.9%, whereas after 10 mg the postprandial peak level and the AUC were 82.9% and 64.7%, lower. In the 5 mg study the mean arterial blood pressure was decreased by 30 mm Hg in the fasting subjects and by 21 mm Hg in the post-prandial group. For the 10 mg dose the corresponding values were 35 and 24 mm Hg. The blood pressure lowering effect was only weakly correlated with the food — related reduction in the plasma endralazine levels. The results suggest that endralazine has a similar kinetic interaction with food as that found for hydralazine.

    Notizen: Summary Seven healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of triazolam 0.25 mg after 7 days on troleandomycin 2 g/day p.o. or placebo in a double-blind cross-over study. Plasma triazolam and psychometric and memory tests (including Critical Flicker Fusion threshold, Choice Reaction Time, Digit Symbol Substitution and Self-Rating Scales) were assessed at regular intervals after the final treatment. Troleandomycin was found to prolong the psychomotor impairment and amnesia produced by triazolam. There was a significant enhancement of the AUC, the peak concentration and the delay to tmax of triazolam after 7 days treatment with troleandomycin compared to placebo. Thus, there is a pharmacokinetic interaction, and the combination of triazolam and troleandomycin should be avoided or the dose of triazolam should be adjusted. The most likely mechanism is a diminished hepatic first-pass effect, and a decrease in the apparent oral clearance of triazolam.

    Notizen: Summary The kinetic disposition of yohimbine was examined in eight young male subjects following a single oral dose of 10 mg yohimbine hydrochloride. The drug was rapidly absorbed (absorption half-time 0.17±0.11 h) and rapidly eliminated from the plasma (elimination half-life 0.60±0.26 h). This clearance of yohimbine from plasma was constant over approximately 10 elimination half-lives, suggesting that distribution into a second pharmacokinetically distinct compartment was not responsible for the rapid decline in plasma yohimbine levels. Urinary excretion and the partitioning of the drug into red blood cells (RBC) was investigated. In the 24 h following oral administration of the drug, virtually no yohimbine was eliminated in the urine (0.35±0.50% of the administered dose). Furthermore, only 20% of blood-borne yohimbine was located in RBC. These results suggest that yohimbine is eliminated primarily through metabolism since the rapid plasma clearance of yohimbine was not the result of renal elimination or sequestration by RBC.

    Notizen: Summary Moracizine (ethmozine) is a phenothiazine derivative with demonstrated antiarrhythmic activity. To characterize the pharmacokinetics and material balance relationships in humans, we have given14C-moracizine·HCl as a single oral dose of 500 mg (50 μCi) to six healthy men. Plasma, urine, and faecal samples were collected for 7 days after administration and the concentrations of total radioactivity and intact moracizine were determined by liquid scintillation counting and HPLC, respectively. Urine and faecal recovery accounted for 95% of the administered radioactivity. Most of this radioactivity was found in the faeces (59%). Only 0.05% of the dose was recovered from urine as intact moracizine. The Cmax and AUC for moracizine equivalents of total radioactivity were 4- and 18-fold higher, respectively, than the corresponding values for intact moracizine. Additionally, both the disappearance of total radioactivity from plasma and its excretion rate into urine were slower in comparison to intact drug. Terminal t1/2 values calculated from plasma concentration-time data were 85.2 and 3.5 h for total radioactivity and intact moracizine, respectively. However, based on urinary excretion rates, the t1/2 for total radioactivity was shorter (29.3 h) while the t1/2 for intact drug was comparable (2.7 h) to the results obtained from the plasma data. The oral plasma clearance of moracizine was relatively large (2.2l·min−1), suggesting first-pass metabolism. The estimated oral systemic availability of moracizine was 34%.

    Notizen: Summary We have studied the pharmacokinetics of flecainide after the oral administration of 100 mg to 8 patients without renal impairment and 8 patients with mild to moderate renal failure. Both groups gave comparable results with respect to the peak plasma concentrations and the time to peak. There was a significant correlation between renal flecainide clearance and endogenous creatinine clearance. The elimination half-time in the patients with impaired renal function was significantly longer (19.9, SD 9.9 h) than that in the patients with normal renal function (11.5, SD 4.2 h), but the variability in the elimination half-time in renal failure could not be explained on the basis of the available results.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics of sisomicin, a new single component aminoglycoside antibiotic related to gentamicin c1a, were determined in four healthy volunteers after intravenous and intramuscular administration of a 1 mg/kg dose. The elimination profile of this antibiotic follows two-compartment model kinetics after I.V. administration. The fast (α) and slow (β) disposition rate constants averaged 0.072 and 0.004 min−1, respectively. The volume of distribution at the steady-state averaged 0.185 liters/kg which approximately corresponds to the volume of extracellular space. The physiological availability of an intramuscular dose appeared to be complete. A method of administration adapted to the kinetic properties of the drug is proposed.

    Notizen: Summary Following a single 50 mg dose of hydralazine (Apresoline®) in 13 patients with impaired renal function, a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was correlated with an increase in serum half-life (T1/2) of the drug (r=−0.69; p〈0.01). The T1/2 was 15.8 h in one patient with a GFR of 16 ml·min−1, as compared to a T1/2 of 1.7–3.0 h found previously in 16 healthy volunteers. In 49 patients on long-term antihypertensive treatment with hydralazine, the ratio between the minimum steady-state drug concentration and the daily dose of hydralazine (C SS min : Dose) increased as the GFR decreased. This accumulation of the drug was particularly evident in patients with a GFR less than 30 ml·min−1 (r=−0.63; p〈0.01; n=19). As renal excretion of unchanged hydralazine is generally regarded as unimportant, the slower elimination rate in chronic renal failure was probably caused by a slower rate of metabolic conversion. It was found, however, that the renal excretion of hydralazine could easily have been underestimated, as only 12.7% of an initial hydralazine concentration of 200 ng·ml−1 in urine could be recovered after storage of the samples at room temperature for 24 h.

    Notizen: Summary The effects of flutiorex, a new anorectic agent, and of a placebo on food intake and the activity of the sympathetic and central nervous systems have been compared in a double blind trial in two groups of healthy volunteers, one of five males and the other of five females. Flutiorex 20 mg orally had a significant anorectic effect both in males and females, the observed reduction in food intake being 34.0 and 27.5%, respectively. It caused α-adrenergic stimulation (blood pressure and pupil diameter) and central nervous system excitation (critical flicker frequency), both of which were more marked in males than in females. Flutiorex was better tolerated by women than by men. Measurement of the blood level of flutiorex and its de-ethylated metabolite, norflutiorex, showed that both compounds were detectable in four of the five male subjects, but in only one of the five females. Sex-linked differences in the pharmacokinetics of flutiorex may explain the greater intensity of its effects in males.

    Notizen: Summary Concentrations of methaqualone have been measured in the serum of five male human subjects receiving five consecutive evening doses of a combination formulation containing methaqualone (250 mg), carbromal (300 mg) and benactyzine (0.33 mg) in each tablet. After administration of the first dose, mean peak serum concentrations of methaqualone (1.2 µg/ml) occurred at 3 h. After obtaining peak levels, mean concentrations of methaqualone declined rapidly during the next 6 h and there-after more slowly during the next 18 h. After administration of the last (fifth) dose, mean peak serum concentrations of methaqualone (1.9 µg/ml; 1.5 µg/ml above the predose level) occurred at 2 h. After attaining peak levels, mean concentrations of methaqualone declined rapidly during the next 6 h, and thereafter more slowly, with a half-life of approximately 10 h. Mean concentrations of methaqualone in serum samples 24 h after the second, third, fourth or fifth doses were not significantly different (0.3 µg/ml – 0.6 µg/ml) during this period of dosing. This suggests that significant accumulation of methaqualone in the serum did not occur during a period of five consecutive evening doses of the combination formulation.

    Notizen: Summary We have measured the plasma concentrations of captopril and total disulfide conjugates of captopril after a 50 mg oral dose in 6 uraemic patients on maintenance dialysis and in 8 hypertensive subjects with normal renal function. The mean peak plasma concentration of captopril was 2.5 times higher (0.447 µg·ml−1 vs 0.181 µg·ml−1) and the concentrations of the disulfides 4 times higher (3.62 µg·ml−1 vs 0.924 µg·ml−1) in the uraemic patients. Moreover captopril disulfide conjugates in the uraemic subjects reached peak concentrations at 8 h after the dose and subsequently felt. The apparent plasma half-time was 46±19 h. Only 15% of these conjugates were removed by dialysis. This marked accumulation of captopril conjugates was associated with a sustained fall in both systolic and diastolic blood pressures. In uraemic patients the mean maximum reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 37±7 mmHg and 24±9 mmHg respectively, occurring 6 h after the dose, compared with 8±7 and 8±1 mmHg respectively at 30 min in normal renal function patients. These results are consistent with the results of animal experiments, which show that captopril disulfides can be converted back to free captopril and can contribute to the antihypertensive effect of the drug. They provide a reationale for reducing the dose and frequency of administration of captopril in patients with significant renal impairment.

    Notizen: Summary The influence of a single low dose of verapamil (80 mg) on the serum levels of digoxin (single dose of 0.5 mg) was studied in 6 patients with hepatic cirrhosis and in 6 healthy volunteer controls. In the cirrhotic patients verapamil increased the peak serum level and the total AUC of digoxin by 98% and 32%, respectively. There was an associated 23% decrease in the renal digoxin clearance. In normal subjects only marginal alterations in digoxin kinetics were observed following verapamil administration. The results indicate that cirrhosis magnifies the influence of verapamil on digoxin kinetics.

    Notizen: Summary The concentration-time curves of azapropazone in synovial fluid and tissues have been studied in arthritic patients after an i.v. bolus (600 mg) and under steady-state conditions. Synovial fluid and tissue samples were taken intraoperatively 0.45–60 h after administration. The azapropazone concentrations in synovial fluid, synovial tissue and plasma were correlated. The levels in synovial fluid were usually lower than corresponding plasma levels. Under steady-state conditions azapropazone did not accumulate in synovial tissues.

    Notizen: Summary The possibility of an interaction of ranitidine with amitriptyline was assessed by means of amitriptyline and nortriptyline plasma concentration measurements, blood pressure and pulse rate, digit symbol substitution, and visual analogue scales. Ranitidine had no effect on amitriptyline or nortriptyline concentrations. Responses recorded by the digit symbol substitution and visual analogue scale tests correlated with changes in concentrations of amitriptyline and nortriptyline in plasma. No effects on blood pressure or pulse rate were observed. We concluded that there was no effect of ranitidine on amitriptyline kinetics or response in the conditions of our study.

    Notizen: Summary The plasma pharmacokinetics of nifedipine and the formation of its metabolites have been studied in volunteers under conditions which would affect the activity of the cytochrome P-450 system. The pharmacokinetics of a 10-mg capsule of nifedipine were not significantly different between smokers and non-smokers of similar age. After pretreatment with cimetidine, which inhibits the activity of cytochrome P-450, the peak plasma concentration and area under the plasma-time concentration curve for nifedipine were increased by a mean 84%. In contrast, pre-treatment with ranitidine which has little effect on cytochrome P-450, did not significantly alter nifedipine pharmacokinetics. Smoking does not contribute significantly to the variability in nifedipine pharmacokinetics. However, the interaction between nifedipine and cimetidine, but not ranitidine, may be of clinical importance.

    Notizen: Summary The kinetics of morphine and its glucuronidated metabolites were investigated in seven patients with advanced renal failure. The terminal elimination half life of morphine varied between 1.5 and 4.0 h (mean 2.4 h), the volume of distribution between 2.5 and 6.3 l·kg−1 (mean 4.4 l·kg−1) and the total plasma clearance between 13.3 and 31.3 l·min−1·kg−1 (mean 21.1 l·kg−1). There were no statistically significant differences between the pharmacokinetic data in the uraemic patients and in a control group of cancer patients with normal kidney function. The concentrations of the glucuronidated metabolites rapidly rose to levels above those of morphine. The elimination half-life of M3G varied between 14.5 and 118.8 h (mean 49.6 h) in the renal failure patients, which is distinctly different from the 2.4 to 6.7 h (mean 4.0 h) found in patients with normal kidney function. There was a significant correlation between the half-life of M3G and renal function estimated as serum urea. Thus, the metabolism of morphine in patients with kidney disease is not significantly impaired. The clinical importance of the high concentrations of glucuronides in uraemic patients is not known.

    Notizen: Summary Six healthy volunteers were given probenecid 0.5, 1 and 2 g p.o. and 0.5 g i.v. The protein binding of probenecid at different concentrations in human plasma was estimated by equilibrium dialysis. The free fraction was found to increase nonlinearly with increasing total probenecid concentration, up to a maximum free fraction of 26%. The plasma concentration-time data after the oral doses were described by a one-compartment open model with first-order absorption and Michaelis-Menten elimination. The mean absorption rate constant 0.0072 min−1 was dose-independent, and the maximal rate of elimination (mean 1429 µg/min) did not differ between doses whether calculated from the total or free concentrations. The Michaelis-Menten constant decreased significantly from 67.1 to 55.5 µg/ml as the dose increased from 1 g to 2 g, while the unbound Michaelis-Menten constant remained unchanged. The elimination of probenecid after the 0.5 g dose was in the linear region of the Michaelis-Menten elimination when calculated from the total and the free concentrations. The volume of distribution increased only slightly from 9.5 to 11.4 l as the dose increased from 0.5 to 2 g, but the unbound volume of distribution decreased significantly from 164 to 99 l. Absorption was complete and was independent of the dose administered.

    Notizen: Summary The chronotropic response to a single oral dose of propranolol in 23 healthy subjects has been related to the plasma propranolol concentration and the density of β-adrenoceptors on peripheral polymorphonuclear leucocytes. The percentage reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia was significantly correlated with the log plasma propranolol concentration within subjects but not between subjects. Taking the concentration of the active metabolite 4-hydroxypropranolol into account did not improve the interindividual correlation. The reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia was significantly correlated with the maximum binding density of (125I)-hydroxybenzylpindolol on polymorphonuclear leucocyte membrane fragments measured before medication. A response index (% reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia/plasma propranolol concentration) was correlated with the maximum binding density of (125I)-hydroxybenzylpindolol (predrug) at 2 h (rs=0.72), 4 h (rs=0.84) and 6 h (rs=0.73) after dosing. The data suggest that interindividual variation in the response to propranolol after a single oral dose is determined by interindividual differences both in plasma propranolol and adrenoceptor density.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics of doxorubicin has been studied in 26 sarcoma patients receiving polychemotherapy. Mean elimination half-life was 34.7±16.6 h and the total plasma clearance was 29.5±9.31·h−1·m−2. No relationship was found between the pharmacokinetic parameters and the response to treatment, or its toxicity. Special attention was paid to the early-phase kinetics of the drug (3–20 min after injection). A correlation between the early clearance and the ages of the patients was observed. The early clearance was clearly correlated with the total plasma clearance measured over 48 h after injection, indicating the importance of the distribution phase in the overall kinetics of the drug.

    Notizen: Summary In a pharmacokinetic study of the new analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug indoprofen, plasma levels and urinary excretion were determined in four healthy volunteers after 100 mg and 200 mg iv, and after 100 mg (capsules) and 200 mg (tablets) oral doses. After iv administration, the mean biological half-life (t1/2 β) was about 2 h (range 1.4 to 3.2 h). The apparent volume of distribution Vdβ ranged between 11 to 17 % of body weight, indicating its limited extravascular distribution. Most of the drug was excreted in urine as glucuronide and a smaller proportion as unchanged indoprofen: the 24 h urinary excretion of these compounds accounted for 67 to 95 % of an iv dose. Peak plasma levels occurred between 30 and 120 minutes after oral administration of 100 mg as capsules or 200 mg as tablets. The mean biological half-life was about 2 h, as after iv administration. The bioavailability of oral doses was assessed using both plasma levels and urinary excretion data. The absorption of capsules and tablets was practically complete, that of the former being faster.

    Notizen: Summary By means of an86Rb-uptake inhibition assay, changes in the plasma concentration of digoxin and the amount of the glycoside removed during exchange transfusion have been studied in two newborns. For comparison, the exchange procedure was simulated by a computer on the basis of a two-compartment open model and available pharmacokinetic constants. A rapid decrease in plasma digoxin concentration during exchange transfusion was found when the glycoside was administered intravenously or intramuscularly within 60 min before the procedure. The amount of digoxin removed by the exchange was less than 6 per cent of the given dose. Computer simulation of the procedure also showed removal of only a minor amount of digoxin. It is concluded that the decrease in plasma concentration and the removal of only a small amount of glycoside by the exchange transfusion can be attributed mainly to extensive tissue distribution of digoxin. The results imply that replacement of digoxin after an exchange transfusion seems unnecessary.

    Notizen: Summary In seven healthy male volunteers the effects of the pattern of dosing on the pharmacokinetics of diazepam have been studied. A cross-over design was employed that consisted of three parts: a single intravenous dose (0.1 mg/kg), and oral dosing (10 mg/day) for six days followed by an intravenous bolus (0.1 mg/kg) on the seventh day, followed by re-examination of a single intravenous dose after diazepam (D) and its major metabolite desmethyldiazepam (DD) had been completely eliminated. Plasma levels of D and DD were monitored by a specific, sensitive GLC-method. In younger patients (n=5, age 29 – 35 years) the elimination half-life, T1/2 (β), of D was 33.9±10.6 h (mean±S.D.) after the single dose. The control study gave an almost identical result (35.7±12.1). After subchronic dosage in all patients T1/2 (β) showed a modest but significant prolongation (paired t-test p〈0.01) to 52.9±17.4 h. It was caused by a significant decrease (p=0.016) in total plasma clearance ( $$\overline {\user1{Cl}} $$ ), from 26.0±10.8 ml/min to 18.2±7.0 ml/min. Older patients (age 43–60 years) showed the same phenomenon. Blood/plasma ratios remained constant indicating no change in protein binding. Biliary excretion of D was measured in five patients with a T-tube. Only negligible amounts (0.3–0.4%) of administered D were excreted within 3 days after subchronic dosage, which demonstrates a lack of enterohepatic cycling of D. After multiple administration of D, there was accumulation of DD to levels approximately five times higher than after a single dose. The possibility that the slower elimination of D after subchronic treatment might be caused by DD was also supported by experiments in dogs and rabbits. After pretreating rabbits with DD and maintaining a high DD plasma level, there was prolongation of T1/2 (β) from 2.7 h to 5.2 h, with a corresponding decrease of $$\overline {\user1{Cl}} $$ from 101.6 ml/min to 23.4 ml/min. Similar results were obtained in dogs. It is concluded that the disposition of D is altered by subchronic use and may be regulated by the plasma DD concentration.

    Notizen: Summary The interaction between a new macrolide antibiotic, miocamycin, and theophylline was evaluated in a single cross-over study in 5 asthmatic children. Each patient received a single dose of theophylline (4.3 mg/kg) delivered in 15 min using a constant-rate infusion pump, immediately before and after a 10 day course of miocamycin 17.5 mg/kg b.d. The pharmacokinetics of theophylline were calculated for each phase of the study. The elimination rate constant (3.92 vs 3.74 h−1), the mean total body clearance (1.71 vs 1.8 ml·min·kg−1) and the mean apparent volume of distribution (0.57 vs 0.58 l·kg−1) did not differ. The result can be explained by the inability of the antibiotic to form inactive cytochrome P-450 metabolite complexes which can interfere with the metabolism of theophylline. Thus, miocamycin can safely be administered to asthmatic children requiring theophylline treatment, when they have an infection due to susceptible pathogens.

    Notizen: Summary We have determined the pharmacokinetics of meptazinol after its intravenous and intramuscular administration in a crossover study in 7 elderly hospital in-patients (〉70 years), and have compared with the results from 14 healthy, young volunteers (ages 20–40 years). The systemic availability after i.m. administration was comparable to that after i.v. administration, a result consistent with the physicochemical properties of the drug. There was a slight, but statistically significant (p〈0.01) prolongation in t1/2z in the elderly (mean 2.93 h) compared with the young (mean 2.06 h). This was associated with a 25% lower clearance in the elderly rather than with any alteration in volume of distribution. However, these changes would not appear to be substantial enough to require a revised dosage recommendation for meptazinol for this age group.

    Notizen: Summary The acute renal effects of a single oral dose of felodipine 0.15 mg/kg were studied in 8 healthy males. Thirty minutes after administration the mean plasma concentration was 25.7 nmol/l. There was a significant reduction in diastolic blood pressure (24%) and a concomitant rise in heart rate (38%), leaving the systolic pressure unchanged. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal plasma flow (RPF) were measured by the constant infusion technique using the clearance of125I-iothalamate and131I-hippuran respectively. GFR was unchanged and the filtration fraction (FF) was reduced, whilst there was a decrease in renal vascular resistance (RVR). The glomerular filter characteristics were unchanged, as estimated by the unchanged excretion rate of albumin. There was a significant rise in the clearance of sodium (176%) but only a small and insignificant increase in urine volume. Clearance of potassium was decreased. An increase in the clearance of uric acid and a rise in the beta-2-microglobulin excretion rate were found, both suggesting a proximal tubular effect of felodipine. The excretion rate of calcium was increased.

    Notizen: Summary Six normal young and six normal elderly volunteers and six elderly hypertensive patients took part in an acute and chronic dose study of a combination capsule containing atenolol (50 mg), hydrochlorothiazide (25 mg) and amiloride (2.5 mg) designed for the treatment of hypertension. No difference in any of the drug pharmacokinetic parameters could be detected between the hypertensives and the normal elderly subjects. The bio-availability and the 24-h blood concentrations of all three drugs, half-life of atenolol and amiloride and the peak concentration of hydrochlorothiazide was significantly greater in the elderly. The 24-h blood concentrations of atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide did not alter with chronic dosing, but amiloride concentrations were significantly higher at this time in all groups. A significant fall in the blood pressure was observed in the hypertensive group. Heart rate fell more in the normal and hypertensive elderly subjects than in the young. The combination has shown to be an effective and well tolerated antihypertensive in the elderly patient with a 24-h duration of action.

    Notizen: Summary Stereochemical aspects of the potential interaction between the oral anticoagulant warfarin and the H2-antagonists, cimetidine and ranitidine, were investigated. A single 25 mg oral dose of racemic warfarin was administered on Day 4 of a randomised 9-day multiple dosing regimen of either cimetidine (800 mg o.d.) ranitidine (300 mg o.d.) or placebo. The degree of anticoagulation produced by warfarin was quantificated by the determination of both the prothrombin and Factor VII clotting times. Ranitidine had no effect on the pharmacodynamics of warfarin or the pharmacokinetics of the individual warfarin enantiomers. Cimetidine whilst producing no statistically significant change in the pharmacodynamics of warfarin or in the pharmacokinetics of the pharmacologically more potent (S) enantiomer, did produce a statistically significant decrease in the clearance of the (R) enantiomer, possibly due to metabolic inhibition of this species.

    Notizen: Summary Plasma concentrations of nitrendipine were measured, after single (20 mg) oral doses, in young healthy volunteers. On three occasions the subjects ingested the dose having fasted overnight. Data from these three occasions were used to assess variability in nitrendipine pharmacokinetics and both inter- and intra-subject variability were high. On a fourth occasion, the subjects took the tablet after a standard meal. The effects of food on nitrendipine pharmacokinetics, based on the comparison of data from the first fasting visit and the food visit, were negligible.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetic properties of a single oral dose of 100 mg of tiapride were studied in six patients with Huntington's disease. The results for five patients were consistent with a two compartment open model. Peak plasma concentrations were observed within 2 h following durg administration with a mean value of 0.92 μg/ml being recorded. The drug was rapidly eliminated as unmetabolised tiapride in the urine, 51% of the dose was recovered in 24 h. The plasma elimination half-life was 5.3 h and the average apparent plasma clearance was 16.6 l/h.

    Notizen: Summary We have given single high doses of dexamethasone phosphate by intravenous infusion as an antiemetic to 15 cancer patients receiving regimens containing cisplatin and/or doxorubicin. The patients received graded doses of dexamethasone phosphate, in the range 40–200 mg, dependent upon nausea and vomiting scores, during up to three consecutive cycles of cancer chemotherapy. Plasma and urine concentrations of dexamethasone (dexamethasone alcohol) were measured by HPLC. The plasma concentration-time data were described by an open two-compartment model. The pharmacokinetic variables were independent of the dose of dexamethasone over the range studied. The terminal half-time was 4.0±0.4 h and the total body clearance was 3.5±0.4 ml·min−1·kg−1. The volume of the central compartment and the total apparent volume of distribution were 0.23±0.03 and 1.0±0.1 l·kg−1 respectively. Approximately 8% of the dose was excreted into the urine as dexamethasone.

    Notizen: Abstract Following a single-dose, open-label, pilot pharmacokinetic study in six subjects, the systemic pharmacokinetics and metabolic effects of dorzolamide after topical ocular administration were investigated in a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled study in 12 healthy volunteers. The subjects received a controlled diet on the 5 days before treatment initiation and throughout the study. For 14 days, a bilateral q.i.d. regimen of 3% dorzolamide, consisting of approximately 7.7 μg per day (21.3 μmol) dorzolamide hydrochloride, or placebo was given. Blood and urine electrolytes and acid-base profiles were measured 1 day prior to treatment and on days 1, 7 and 14 of treatment, and 24-h urine samples were collected daily. Topically applied dorzolamide was slowly taken up in erythrocytes and eliminated with a half life of approximately 120 days. Compared to the pre-study values, no significant treatment effect was observed in either the daily profiles or the 14-day cumulative sodium, potassium and citrate excretions. Two other volunteers given acetazolamide (125 mg q.i.d.) and assessed with the identical set of observations demonstrated marked metabolic changes. In spite of the prolonged and marked inhibition of carbonic anhydrase in red blood cells by dorzolamide, clinically significant metabolic and renal effects were not observed. The ocular tolerability profile was acceptable to all subjects.

    Notizen: Abstract We studied the elimination of amrinone during continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVHF) in three anuric patients after cardiac surgery. The patients had developed low cardiac output followed by acute prerenal failure. Plasma amrinone levels measured by HPLC were fitted to a two-compartment model. We found significant amrinone clearance, with a mean sieving coefficient (S) of 0.44%, which correlates with the protein-unbound, pharmacologically effective fraction of amrinone. The AUC of the arterial plasma concentration-time curve was decreased by 49.8%. All pharmacokinetic parameters showed wide interindividual variation. To ensure the therapeutic effect of amrinone and to avoid toxic adverse effects monitoring of plasma amrinone levels is necessary.

    Notizen: Abstract Investigations in animals have suggested that conjugation of paracetamol may be reduced in malaria. We have measured plasma concentrations and the urinary excretion of paracetamol and its phase II metabolites in eight Thai patients during uncomplicated falciparum malaria and in convalescence, following a 1000 mg single oral dose. The apparent oral clearance (Malaria, 3.6; Convalescence, 3.9; ml·min−1·kg−1), the elimination half-life (Malaria, 3.8; Convalescence, 3.7 h) and apparent volume of distribution (Malaria, 1.2; Convalescence, 1.2; l·kg−1) of paracetamol were similar during malaria and convalescence. In addition, the urinary excretion of paracetamol and its major phase II metabolites and their formation clearances from paracetamol were not significantly different between the two study phases. These data show that clinical malaria infection has no effect on the conjugation of paracetamol in man.

    Notizen: Abstract The relative bioavailability of nicotine from a nasal spray was assessed in 15 smokers suffering a common cold and rhinitis according to generally accepted criteria. The patients were given a single dose of 2 mg nicotine from the nasal spray with and without concurrent administration of a nasal vasoconstrictor decongestant, xylometazoline, in randomised order. Control session measurements were made in the disease-free state. Applying strict bioequivalence criteria, we found that common cold/rhinitis slightly reduced the bioavailability of nicotine, both in its rate and extent; the geometric mean of the ratio of Cmax, AUC and tmax were 0.81, 0.93 and 1.36, respectively. The nasal vasoconstrictor, xylometazoline, normalised the extent of the bioavailability of nicotine, but further prolonged the time for absorption to almost twice that measured in the disease-free state, increasing the tmax ratio to 1.72. The results suggest that a minor proportion of people stopping smoking with the help of a nicotine nasal spray may experience a minor reduction in the effect of the spray during common cold/rhinitis. However, the nicotine self-titration behaviour found with most smoking cessation products (except the nicotine patch) will automatically lead to an adjustment of the dosage to achieve the desired effect.

    Notizen: Abstract We studied the pharmacokinetics of a single 0.5-mg i.v. dose of chlordesmethyldiazepam in 8 patients with liver disease and in 12 age-matched healthy controls. The kinetics were also studied of a single 1-mg oral dose in the patients with liver disease. After i.v. administration the kinetics of total chlordesmethyldiazepam in patients with liver disease differed from those in controls: elimination half-life was almost twice that in controls (395 and 204 h), as a consequence of a marked reduction in total clearance (0.13 and 0.25 ng·ml−1·h−1), whereas the apparent volume of distribution was similar in patients and controls (4.7 and 3.9 1/kg−1). The free fraction of the drug in patients was higher (5.5%) than in controls (2.9%). Correction for differences in protein binding revealed clearance in the patients was one-fifth (1.8 and 10.5 ng ml−1·kg−1) and volume of distribution one-half (65.0 and 118.4 1·kg−1) that in controls. The systemic availability of oral chlordesmethyldiazepam was high (110%) in spite of a relatively slow absorption rate. These results indicate a need for caution in the administration of chlordesmethyldiazepam to patients with liver disease.

    Notizen: Abstract The effects of a Finnish sauna on propranolol pharmacokinetics and on the pharmacodynamics of propranolol and captopril were studied in healthy, young volunteers (2 males, 6 females) in a double-blind, cross-over trial. The subjects received single oral doses of placebo. propranolol (40 mg) or captopril (12.5 mg) in sauna and control sessions at a one-week interval. The sauna sessions consisted of three repetitive 10-min stays in a sauna (85–100°C, relative humidity 25–35%) separated by two 5-min rest periods in a cool room. Sauna bathing started 35, 50 and 65 min after ingestion of the drugs. Venous blood for plasma propranolol measurement were collected before and 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90 min and 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 24 h after drug intake. The sauna significantly increased the maximum concentration (Cmax 41 vs. 28 ng·ml−1) of propranolol and the mean plasma propranolol concentration 60 and 90 min, and 2 and 3 h after drug administration. It also significantly increased the AUC0–5h (119 vs 71 μg·h·l-1) of propranolol from 0 to 5 hours tmax, t1/2β and AUC0–24h of propranolol did not differ between the control and sauna sessions. The higher propranolol levels during and after the cessation of sauna bathing did not lead to significant changes in blood pressure or heart rate compared to the control period. Captopril had no major effects on these parameters during the post-sauna phase. The results suggest that a sauna may increase the plasma propranolol concentration, but that did not notably affect the blood pressure or heart rate in healthy, young volunteers during the post-sauna phase.

    Notizen: Abstract This study assessed the influence of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA, 1.0 g), ibuprofen (0.8 g) and paracetamol (1.0 g) on the single-dose kinetics of ethanol in 12 healthy volunteers ingesting the drug and a standardised 1840-kJ breakfast 1 h before intake of ethanol. It also assessed the influence of ethanol on the single-dose kinetics of 1.0 g ASA in ten fasting healthy volunteers. Plasma concentrations of ethanol were measured by gas chromatography, and those of the drugs by liquid chromatography. There was no effect of ASA, ibuprofen or paracetamol on the single-dose kinetics of ethanol, but concurrent intake of ethanol reduced the peak concentration of ASA by 25%.

    Notizen: Abstract Recombinant hirudins are currently under investigation for use in myocardial infarction and unstable angina. In this study the influence of piroxicam on the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of a recombinant hirudin preparation (CGP 39393) administered intravenously was determined. Twelve healthy, male volunteers received piroxicam 10 mg and matching placebo once daily for 12 days according to a double-blind, randomised cross-over design. On the 12th day, the dose of piroxicam was followed by a 6-hour infusion of hirudin 0.1 mg·kg−1·h−1. Plasma concentrations and urinary excretion of hirudin and repeated measurements of the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), bleeding time and platelet adhesion index were assessed up to 24 h after the start of the infusion. The maximum APTT was 83 s (placebo) and 84 s (piroxicam), 3 to 4 h after the start of the infusion, and was comparable on both study days. The AUD0–24 (APTT) came to 913 s·h·kg−1 under placebo and it was slightly increased to 1,017 s·h·kg−1 after piroxicam; the 95%-confidence interval according to MOSES ranged from 0.97 to 1.24, and the point estimator was 1.10. Bleeding time was significantly prolonged from 290 s under placebo to 345 s under piroxicam before the start of the infusion of hirudin. No further prolongation was found during or after the infusion. No change was observed in the platelet adhesion index. Responsiveness parameters according to a sigmoidal Emax-model were obtained from the hirudin-plasma concentration/effect (i.e. APTT-prolongation)-curves after placebo and piroxicam. Maximal APTT-prolongation (Emax; i.e. peak APTT minus the baseline value) was 53 s after placebo and 52 s after piroxicam. The EC50 was 34 nmol·l−1 after placebo and 40 nmol·h·l−1 after piroxicam. The AUC0 of hirudin was to 539 nmol·h·l−1·kg−1 under placebo and 557 nmol·h·l−1·kg−1 after piroxicam coadministration; the 95%- confidence interval according to MOSES ranged from 0.95 to 1.14, and the point estimator was 1.03. No period effect was detected. There were no significant differences between the other pharmacokinetic parameters except Vss, which was increased slightly from 0.23 l to 0.27 l under piroxicam. The results do not show a clinically relevant pharmacodynamic and/or pharmacokinetic interaction between hirudin and piroxicam.

    Notizen: Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of fluconazole after oral administration in children with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. After an overnight fast, a single dose of either 2 mg·kg−1 or 8 mg·kg−1 was administered in a suspension; five children received 2 mg·kg−1 and four 8 mg·kg−1 (ages 5–13 years). Blood samples were collected at various times on day 1, and once daily on days 2–7 after the dose. Fluconazole serum concentrations were measured by gas chromatography. At the dose of 2 mg·kg−1, the Cmax, AUC (0–∞), and t1/2 ranged from 2.3–4.4 μg·ml−1, 84.9–136 μg·h·ml−1, and 19.8–34.8 h, respectively. At the dose of 8 mg·kg−1 the Cmax, AUC (0–∞), and t1/2 ranged from 5.4–12.1 μg·ml−1, 330–684 μgh·ml−1, and 25.6–42.3 h, respectively. When compared with published data in healthy adults, fluconazole achieved similar serum concentrations in the present group of children, indicating a nearly complete degree of absorption.

    Notizen: Abstract Idrapril is the prototype of a new class of ACE inhibitors, characterised by the presence of a hydroxdmic group. Six untreated in-patients with essential hypertension were given single oral doses of the calcium salt of idrapril, idrapril calcium (200 mg) and placebo according to a double blind, randomised experimental design. Supine and upright blood pressure, heart rate, plasma idrapril serum ACE, active renin and angiotensin II were measured at timed intervals for 24 hours after dosing. Plasma idrapril reached a peak after 2 hours (3.01 μ·ml−1), and by 12 hours the compound had al most disappeared (67 ng·ml−1). Derived t1/2 was 1.4–2.2 h. ACE activity was suppressed [from 77.9 to 3.3 after 2 hours and 11.8 after 12 hours nmol−1·min−1·ml] and angiotensin II production inhibited [from 8.8 to 3.1 (after 1 hour) and 7.5 (after 12 hours) pg·ml−1] for up to 12 h, while active renin rose up to 24 h [from 12.3 to 20.1 (after 8 hours) and 17.5 (after 24 hours) pg·ml−1]. Compared to placebo, idrapril calcium significantly lowered both supine blood pressure starting at 4 hours (idrapril calcium 140/93 mmHg; placebo 157/101 mmHg) up to 24 hours (idrapril calcium 142/91 mmHg; placebo: 155/97 mmHg), and upright blood pressure starting at 3 hours (idrapril calcium 135/95 mmHg; placebo 147/100 mmHg) up to 24 hours (idrapril calcium 132/92 mmHg; placebo 145/100 mmHg). Idrapril calcium appears to be an effective ACE inhibitor in essential hypertension, with a hypotensive action for up to 24 h.

    Notizen: Abstract Patients with cystic fibrosis absorb cyclosporin poorly and erratically. We have compared the relative bioavailability of cyclosporin from conventional and microemulsion formulations in 5 adult heart-lung transplant candidates with cystic fibrosis. Relative bioavailability was compared at two dose levels (200 mg and 800 mg). A randomized 4-period cross-over study was performed with at least a 7 days washout period between each single dose pharmacokinetic study. Blood cyclosporin concentrations were measured by a selective monoclonal antibody-based radioimmunoassay. The bioavailability of cyclosporin from the microemulsion formulation was 1.84 (95% C.I. 1.05 to 3.22; P−0.04) and 2.09 (95% C.I. 0.95 to 4.61; P−0.06) times higher compared with the conventional formulation at 200 mg and 800 mg respectively. Cmax following the microemulsion formulation was 3.38 (C.I. 1.14 to 10.59; P−0.04) and 2.77 (C.I. 1.48 to 5.19; P−0.01) times higher compared with the conventional formulation at 200 mg and 800 mg respectively. The higher Cmax following the microemulsion formulation was accompanied by shorter tmax. An enhancement of cyclosporin absorption with the microemulsion formulation was demonstrated in each patient for at least one dose level. We conclude that rate and extent of cyclosporin absorption from the microemulsion formulation is greater compared with the conventional formulation in patients with cystic fibrosis. The potential therapeutic and economic benefits of the micro-emulsion formulation should be evaluated in cystic fibrosis patients following heart-lung transplantation.

    Notizen: Abstract SCH 42354, a neutral metalloendopeptidase (NEP) inhibitor, is the pharmacologically active form of the prodrug SCH 42495. It exerts antihypertensive effects by potentiating atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) activity through inhibition of its hydrolysis by NEP. The objective of this study was to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of SCH 42354 in hypertensive males. SCH 42495 12.5 to 400 mg was administered orally to hypertensive men twice daily in a double-blind, placebo controlled multiple-dose parallel group design. Plasma SCH 42354 concentration and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) data were used to develop a PK-PD model using two approaches. In the first (non-integrated) approach, the “link” model was used to predict effect-site concentrations, and was applied to data obtained at the 300 and 400 mg BID doses only; data at the other (lower) doses were not amenable to modeling because of high variability. Effect-site concentration and DBP data were then fit to a sigmoid Emax PD model. For the 300 mg BID dose, PD parameters were: maximum effect (Emax), 8.1mmHg; no-drug effect (Eo), 3.6 mmHg; concentration corresponding to 50% of maximum response (EC50), 0.87 μg·ml−1; and gamma, 3.9. In the second (time-integrated) approach, plasma SCH 42354 concentration and effect data obtained over the entire dose range were integrated with respect to time. Average plasma concentration and DBP data were then fit to a simple Emax PD model. PD parameters obtained over the dose range were: Emax, 10.3 mmHg; Eo, 2.0 mmHg; and EC50, 0.7 μg·ml−1. These were similar to the estimates obtained from the first approach, demonstrating that the integrated (average) data allow PK-PD modeling over the (entire) dose range. The analysis showed that, at steady-state, a 400 mg BID dose of SCH 42495 produced an approximate 10 mmHg decrease in DBP in hypertensive males; the average plasma SCH 42354 concentration attained at this dose was approximately 1.8 μg·ml−1.

    Notizen: Abstract The effect of pH on the buccal and sublingual absorption of captopril was evaluated using in vitro techniques and human studies. Partitioning of captopril into n-octanol was lowest over the pH range 5 to 8 and highest at pH values 3, 4 and 9. Using the buccal absorption technique, the partitioning of captopril (2 mg) was examined in six healthy male volunteers from buffered solutions (pH 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9). Lowest buccal partitioning occurred at pH 3 while maximal buccal partitioning occurred at pH 7. These data clearly indicated that the buccal absorption of captopril did not obey the classical pH/partition hypothesis suggesting that mechanisms other than passive diffusion were involved in its absorption. Captopril pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were determined after administration of buffered sublingual captopril (pH 7, optimal pH for absorption as determined from the buccal partitioning data) and unbuffered sublingual captopril. The study was performed in eight healthy volunteers in a randomised single-blind cross-over fashion. The tmax for captopril was found to be approximately 11 minutes earlier after buffered versus unbuffered sublingual administration and AUC0–30 min increased by approximately 30% in the case of buffered captopril. Cpmax, AUC0–180 min and relative bioavailability did not differ between the buffered and unbuffered administration. Pharmacodynamic parameters (BP, heart rate and plasma renin activity) did not differ significantly between buffered and unbuffered sublingual administration. The increased rate of captopril absorption after buffered sublingual administration was small and is likely to offer little therapeutic advantage over conventional sublingual formulation.

    Notizen: Summary After oral administration of a single 50 mg dose of hydralazine (Apresoline®), the serum half-life (T1/2) and bioavailability (AUC0−∞) were assessed in 16 healthy volunteers. The half-life was 2.57±0.14 h (S.E.) in 10 slow acetylators of sulphadimidine, and 2.18±0.15 h in 6 fast acetylators (difference not statistically significant). AUC0−∞ was significantly higher in slow acetylators, at 1.04±0.10 µg·hour·ml−1, compared to 0.66±0.12 µg·hour·ml−1 in the fast acetylators (p〈0.025). Treatment with Apresoline® 25 mg tid produced minimum serum concentrations at steady-state of 57.3±7.3 ng·ml−1 and 33.4±4.2 ng·ml−1 in 8 slow and 5 fast acetylators, respectively (p〈0.05). The corresponding maximum concentrations were 228.8±20.3 ng·ml−1 and 147.6±15.0 ng·ml−1 in slow and fast acetylators, respectively (p〈0.025). First-pass metabolism of hydralazine could explain the difference in bioavailability of the drug between fast and slow acetylators, without any corresponding difference in the elimination rate of the drug in the post-distributive phase.

    Notizen: Summary Amitriptyline was given to four male volunteers by constant rate intravenous infusion. Blood samples were collected before, during and at various times after the infusion for estimation of the serum concentrations of amitriptyline. The level of nortriptyline never reached a detectable level. A two compartment open model was shown to be applicable to the data obtained. The meaning of the parameters obtained by a non-linear, least squares curve fitting procedure is discussed and the values are compared to those recently published for nortriptyline. The calculated biological half-life of amitriptyline was about 17 hours, a figure which differs considerably from previously calculated values for volunteers, but is in accordance with some newer results from patients.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics of a single 100 mg indomethacin suppository were studied in 12 healthy volunteers on two occasions at least 7 days apart. Suppositories were administered in randomised order at 9.00 and 21.00 hours to see if there was evidence of a diurnal variation in kinetic parameters. The study failed to show a significant change in single dose kinetics with the time of suppository administration. This is in contrast to previous work [1] demonstrating a circadian rhythm in the kinetics of a single oral dose of indomethacin. This suggests that the chronopharmacokinetics of indomethacin is dependent on the function of the upper gastrointestinal tract.

    Notizen: Summary The concentrations of verapamil and norverapamil have been measured in milk and plasma samples from a 32year-old woman treated with verapamil 80 mg tds while breast-feeding her child. The average steady-state concentrations of verapamil and norverapamil in milk were, respectively, 60% and 16% of the concentrations in plasma. The breast-fed child received less than 0.01% of the dose of verapamil given to the mother. No verapamil or norverapamil (〈1 ng/ml) could be detected in the plasma from the child.

    Notizen: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of enantiomers of pimobendan and their demethylated metabolites in plasma and red cells were studied in 8 normal healthy volunteers. After racemic pimobendan 5 mg IV, the plasma concentration-time curve followed a two-compartment open-model with elimination half-lives of 1.81 h and 1.86 h for (+)- and (−)-pimobendan, respectively. The clearances and volumes of distribution postequilibrium were 13.5 ml · min−1 · kg−1, 14.4 ml · min−1 · kg−1; 1.74 l · kg−1 and 2.34 l · kg−1 for (+)- and (−)-pimobendan, respectively. Plasma protein binding (n=3) of (+)-, (−)-pimobendan, (+)- and (−)-demethylated metabolites was 97.6, 97.6, 92.2 and 92.5%, respectively. The plasma concentration-time curve also followed a two-compartment open model after oral administration of 7.5 mg racemic pimobendan. The absolute bioavailabilities of (+)- and (−)-pimobendan were 0.51 and 0.55. Peak levels of (+)-and (−)-pimobendan, both at 1.2 h, were 15.8 and 16.8 ng · ml−1, respectively. The (+)- and (−)-pimobendan concentrations in red cells were determined and their pharmacokinetics were estimated using red blood cell data. Interesting phenomena were observed: the peak concentrations of (+)- and (−)-pimobendan in red blood cells were about 5.5- and 9.2-times higher than in plasma, and the AUCs were correspondingly elevated. The volume of distribution of the central compartment of (−)-pimobendan in red cell was significantly smaller than that of (+)-pimobendan. (0.24 vs. 0.42 l · kg−1.) Similar phenomena were found after IV administration. These all indicated stereoselective partitioning or distribution of (−)-pimobendan into red cells. Since the elimination half-life of (+)- and (−)-pimobendan in red cells was similar (3.07 vs 2.97 h), the highly significant difference in clearance between (+)- and (−)-pimobendan (3.7 vs 2.3 ml · min−1 · kg−1) was solely due to the stereoselective distribution of (−)-pimobendan into the red blood cells. This stereoselective property of the (−)-isomer may be the explanation of a previous report that (−)-pimobendan produced a 1.5-times larger contractile force in detergent-skinned preparations of cardiac muscle from guinea pig and dog than the (+)-isomer.

    Notizen: Summary An absorption study was performed in ten healthy volunteers to test the bioavailability of various doses of two penicillin V-K preparations: Isocillin® (Hoechst AG, Federal Republic of Germany), — tablets of 600 000 and 1.2 Mega U; V-Cillin® (Eli Lilly, USA), — tablets of 200 000, 400 000 and 800 000 U. The serum concentrations and elimination of the active substance in urine were measured for six hours after administration. Independently of the source of the preparation, a strict linear relation between the dose and the area under the serum curve (AUC), or between the dose and the urinary elimination, was demonstrated by regression analysis. The dose-dependent increase in the AUC was highly significant (p〈0.01) in the range tested, i.e. between 200 000 and 1.2 Mega U. The relative elimination of active substance in urine lay within narrow limits for all doses (35.7–41.3%). Thus, both compounds proved to have the same bioavailability.

    Notizen: Summary The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of three different brands of ampicillin were studied in 10 volunteers. After intravenous administration ampicillin can be described adequately by a two-compartment open pharmacokinetic model. The half-life during the α-phase was 9 min and the β-half-life was in the range 50–60 min, independent of the mode of administration. Absolute bioavailability was determined from the ratio of the areas under the serum concentration curves obtained after oral and intravenous administration of equal doses. Bioavailability was also estimated by analysis of variance. The results indicated absolute availability of the three products of 39–54%. One of the products, a capsule formulation, showed a significantly lower bioavailability than the others, which were tablet formulations.

    Notizen: Summary A method is described for the assay of therapeutic levels of butobarbital (5-ethyl-5-n-butylbarbituric acid) in human plasma, which involves a single extraction step followed by gas chromatography with alkali flame ionization detection. The pharmacokinetics of butobarbital were studied in five healthy volunteers after oral administration of 200 mg. Plasma concentrations were determined at regular intervals up to 96 h and the data were fitted by non-linear, least squares regression analysis according to one-compartment kinetics. The average lag time was 0.11 h and the absorption half-life 0.21 h. The elimination half-life varied from 33.6 to 41.5 h with an average of 37.5 h. Four of the volunteers participated in a study of multiple dosing (every 24 h) during which substantial accumulation of butobarbital was observed. The elimination half-life after termination of drug administration had decreased to about 20–25% of its initial value, probably because of enzyme induction. It was concluded that butobarbital could not be regarded as a suitable drug for treatment of insomnia, since CNS depressant effects were likely to persist into the following day. Repeated administration of butobarbital should be avoided and its incidental use restricted to patients who require day-time sedation.
