    Notes: Summary The kinetics of alprenolol, in relation to its effect on blood pressure and plasma renin activity, have been studied in sixteen patients. A within-patient comparison was made between therapy for six weeks with placebo or alprenolol 200 mg thrice daily. Thirteen patients responded to alprenolol by a significant fall in blood pressure. In three other patients treatment did not lower blood pressure. In the group as a whole there was no significant correlation between the fall in systolic, diastolic or mean blood pressure, and the steady-state plasma alprenolol concentration, renin status, or degree of beta blockade. However, the thirteen responsive patients showed a significant relationship (p〈0.05 – 0.001) between the log mean steady-state plasma alprenolol concentration and the hypotensive response.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of norethisterone have been studied in 8 women during and one month after treatment with rifampicin (450–600 mg/day). Rifampicin caused a significant reduction in the A. U. C. of a single dose of 1 mg norethisterone from 37.8±13.1 to 21.9±5.9 ng/ml X h (p〈0.01). The plasma norethisterone half life (β-phase) was also reduced from 6.2±1.7 to 3.2±1.0 h (p〈0.0025). In one additional woman on long term oral contraceptive therapy the 12 hour plasma norethisterone concentration was reduced by rifampicin from 12.3 ng/ml to 2.3 ng/ml. Rifampicin caused a significant increase in antipyrine clearance, 6β-hydroxycortisol excretion and plasma gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase activity but there were no significant correlations between changes in these indices of liver microsomal enzyme induction. There was a significant correlation between the percentage increase in antipyrine clearance and the percentage decrease in norethisterone A. U. C. during rifampicin. The changes in norethisterone pharmacokinetics during rifampicin therapy are compatible with the known enzyme inducing effect of rifampicin.

    Notes: Summary A World Health Organisation (European Regional Office) working party has been established to review the progress of clinical pharmacology in European countries. As part of this review a questionnaire on the teaching of chlinical pharmacology was sent to the Deans of all 350 medical schools in the region. Very few replies were received from U.S.S.R., Greece and Portugal and these countries' returns were not analysed further. The overall compliance rate (excluding these countries) was 82% with a figure of 84% from Western Europe and 74% from Eastern Europe. An average time of 96 h (range 0–320) was devoted to pharmacology teaching in the medical curriculum in Western Europe with 124 (0–240) h in Eastern Europe. In contrast 28 h (0–210) was devoted to clinical pharmacology teaching in Western Europe and 27 h (0–90) in Eastern Europe. On average in Western Europe each medical school had 2 individuals trained in clinical pharmacology with 1.3 posts in the subject and the figures for Eastern Europe were 2.3 and 1.1 respectively. However these figures hide a wide variance in the teaching of clinical pharmacology. Particularly in Western Europe there are a number of medical schools in Italy, Spain and the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) where clinical pharmacology is not taught and there is a dearth of individuals trained in the subject. Every effort to encourage clinical pharmacology and its teaching should be made, particularly in these countries.
