    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics and absolute bioavailability of a new nonselective β-adrenoreceptor blocking agent, carteolol, were investigated after administration of single intravenous and oral doses to eight normal volunteers. Plasma and urine drug concentrations were measured by an HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic parameters after intravenous dosing were obtained by a two-compartment analysis: elimination or β-phase t1/2 4.7±0.3 h; Vc, 0.74±0.101/kg; Vd, 4.05±0.48 l/kg; Cl, 10.13±0.94 ml/min/kg; ClR, 6.56±0.58 ml/min/kg; and ClNR, 3.57±0.40 ml/min/kg. The absolute bioavailability obtained from plasma data was 83.7±8.0%, which was consistent with that derived from analysis of urine of 82.7±4.2%. The amounts excreted unchanged in urine up to 48 h after the intravenous and oral doses were 65.0±1.5% and 53.8±3.2% of the administered doses, respectively. The t1/2 for removal of the drug derived from plasma and urine findings after intravenous and oral dosing were similar, which indicates that the main route of elimination of carteolol is via the kidneys. As the ClR of carteolol exceeded the Cl of creatinine there may be renal tubular secretion of the drug.

    Notes: Summary The bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of theophylline from a plain uncoated and 2 newly designed, sustained-release tablet formulations, as compared to intravenous aminophylline, were studied in 12 healthy adult male volunteers. The subjects were divided into two groups (n=6) with respect to smoking habit and on 4 separate occasions each received, on a randomized cross-over basis, a single dose of 400 mg equivalent of theophylline from every dosage form. The intravenous aminophylline study showed that habitual smoking had a significant (p〈0.05) effect on plasma theophylline clearance (0.051±0.006 vs 0.035±0.004 l/kg/h). Smoking significantly reduced the raw AUC from the 4 dosage forms (p〈0.05), but did not change the characteristics of absorption of each formulation. There was a non-significant trend towards reduced absolute bioavailability of theophylline from sustained-release formulations in smokers (percentage mean difference — 16% for one formulation and 13% for another). The trend was not observed for the plain uncoated tablet, which was rapidly absorbed (p〈0.01 to 0.05 in Ka, tmax and Cmax compared to sustained-release tablets). Similarity of the in vitro dissolution profiles of the two sustained-release formulations did not imply similarity of the in vivo absorption characteristics. Plasma clearances of theophylline and antipyrine were significantly correlated (p〈0.05,r=0.693,n=10). Thus, smoking enhanced the elimination of theophylline regardless of the dosage form administered. However, the extent to which habitual smoking may affect the hepatic first-pass effect on theophylline from sustained-release formulations requires further study. The results also suggest that theophylline and antipyrine may share a similar or common and presumably polycyclic hydrocarbon-inducible form(s) of microsomal drugmetabolizing enzyme.

    Notes: Summary Theophylline disposition after an intravenous test dose of aminophylline was determined in 83 subjects: 7 patients with and 58 without congestive heart failure (CHF), and 18 healthy controls. Based on the pharmacokinetics of theophylline in the individual, the oral dosage of aminophylline was scheduled to attain steady-state trough theophylline concentrations (Cpred) near the therapeutic margin. Significant differences in theophylline clearance with a relatively constant volume of distribution were observed between various groups divided by age, smoking habit and CHF; the significantly different (p〈0.001) mean clearance values were: 0.042±0.0161/h/kg (mean ± SD) in patients without CHF (n=58) as opposed to 0.016±0.001 l/h/kg in patients with CHF(n=7), 0.038±0.013 l/h/kg in non-smokers (n=59) versus 0.054±0.015 l/h/kg in smoking subjects (n=17), and 0.030±0.010 l/h/kg in elderly (〉60 years) non-smoking patients (n=7) versus 0.057±0.017 l/h/kg in smoking patients (n=5) aged 40 to 59 years. No gender-related difference was detected in theophylline disposition. For all subjects together (n=83), there was no significant correlation between age and clearance (r=-0.111, p〉0.1). The multivariate analysis indicated that the overall variability in theophylline clearance was affected first by the smoking habit (t=4.960; p〈0.001) and second by CHF (t=-3.052; p〈0.001), but not by age (t=1.140) or by sex (t=0.069). 78% of the patients who did not have CHF required a daily dose of aminophylline of 600 to 900 mg, whereas a dose of 300 to 450 mg was the rule in patients with CHF. The measured steady-state minimum concentration (Cmeas) ranged from 5.4 to 14.6 µg/ml (9.0±2.2 µg/ml: mean ± SD) which was in good agreement with the Cpred (5.6 to 13.6, 9.0±1.6 µg/ml) in all patients (n=60) who received the oral dose of aminophylline calculated from the test dose. The overall prediction error was -0.08±1.83 µg/ml (−1.42±19.90%); only 3 of 60 measurements were found to be outside±2 SD. It is concluded that using a test dose to individualize aminophylline therapy is likely to remain the most reliable means to assure the maximum therapeutic benefit in patients with airway obstruction.

    Notes: Summary The concentration-beta blocking effect and time-effect relationships of carteolol were examined in eight normal adults given 15 mg i.v. and 20 mg orally on separate occasions. Resting and post-exercise blood pressures and heart rates were assessed before and at various times up to 48 h after each dose. Carteolol, a β-blocker with some partial agonist activity, produced an insignificant, transient increase in heart rate 2 to 6 h after both doses, and a fall (p〈0.05) in diastolic blood pressure 4 and 6 h after the intravenous dose and 6 h after the oral dose in the resting supine position, as compared to the corresponding baseline values. All values of the post-exercise heart rate and the double product after each of the doses were significantly (p〈0.001) below the baseline values for the entire period (48 h) of observation. A significant correlation between the log plasma carteolol concentration (log C) and its beta-blocking effect (E: p〈0.001, r=0.508 i.v.; p〈0.001, r=0.626, p.o.) was found. The r-values for individuals were higher (0.852 to 0.977, intravenous; 0.817 to 0.981, oral) than for the group as a whole. The slope (m) of the relationship, E=m·log C+r, showed a certain variance within and between individuals. When the absolute reduction in exercise-induced heart rate was plotted against time and the rate of decline of effect (Rd) and duration of action were estimated from the time-effect relationship, the mean Rd values were 0.655 and 0.462 beats/min per h, and for the duration of action they were 83.8 and 123.9 h after the intravenous and oral doses, respectively. The effect declined at a slower rate (p〈0.02) and the duration of beta-blockade was longer (p〈0.01) after the oral dose.
