    Notes: Summary In eight normal volunteers, the combination of ethanol (0.5 g/kg) and diazepam (10 mg) administered orally produced a greater decrease in motor performance on a pursuit rotor than diazepam alone. The pharmacologic effect of diazepam was enhanced by 73% and this potentiation was associated with significantly greater diazepam concentrations (p〈0.01) than after diazepam alone. The failure to observe any increase in the concentrations of the principal metabolite, N-desmethyl diazepam, during the period of enhanced pharmacologic effect precludes any change in the demethylating metabolic process as being responsible. The data suggest (0.10〉p〉0.05) a trend to a smaller volume of distribution of diazepam when ethanol is administered prior to diazepam ingestion. The subjects showed acute tolerance to the effects of diazepam. Lower plasma concentrations on the ascending side of the plasma diazepam concentration versus time profile were linked with the same pharmacologic responses associated with a greater drug concentration on the descending portion, of the same curve.

    Notes: Summary The absorption of oral and intramuscular (i. m.) chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride (CDX · HCl) was compared in two pharmacokinetic studies. In Study One, single 50-mg doses of CDX · HCl were administered orally and by i. m. injection to 14 healthy volunteers using a crossover design. Whole-blood concentrations of chlordiazepoxide (CDX) and its first active metabolite, desmethylchlordiazepoxide (DMCDX), were determined in multiple samples drawn after the dose. Mean pharmacokinetic variables for CDX following oral and i. m. administration, respectively, were: highest measured blood concentration, 1.65 vs 0.87 µg/ml (p〈0.001); time of highest concentration, 2.3 vs 7.6 h after dosing (p〈0.001); apparent absorption half-life, 0.71 vs 3.39 h (p〈0.001). Biphasic absorption after i. m. injection, consistent with precipitation at the injection site, was observed in 9 of 14 subjects. Based upon comparison with previous intravenous data, the completeness of absorption was 100% for oral vs 86% for i. m. CDX · HCl (p〈0.1). In Study Two, 28 male chronic alcoholics with clinical manifestations of the acute alcohol withdrawal syndrome were randomly assigned to one of four treatment conditions: 50 or 100 mg doses of CDX · HCl, by mouth or by i. m. injection. Concentrations of CDX and DMCDX, determined in plasma samples drawn every 20 min for 5 h following the dose, were significantly higher after oral administration of a given dose than at corresponding points in time after i.m. injection after the same dose. Thus absorption of oral CDX is reasonably rapid and complete, whereas the absorption rate of i. m. CDX is slow.

    Notes: Summary The disposition of a single intravenous dose of diazepam (10 mg) was studied in 11 young, healthy subjects (6 males and 5 females on oral contraceptives). Plasma samples were obtained over 28 days and diazepam and N-desmethyldiazepam plasma concentrations and diazepam free fractions were determined. The salivary excretion of diazepam and N-desmethyldiazepam was studied over 72 h. A series of psychomotor performance tests were administered over the first 8 h. Interindividual variation in mean diazepam disposition over time is not principally related to variation in plasma protein binding; 93% of the variation in clearance is accounted for by variation in intrinsic clearance. Interindividual variation in diazepam disposition is modest but the plasma clearance of diazepam in women on oral contraceptives (median 14.0 ml/min) is significantly (p=0.004) less than in men (median 23.4 ml/min) and the area under the curve (AUC) of diazepam is highly correlated with the AUC of the principal active metabolite (r=0.90, p〈0.001). The AUC of N-desmethyldiazepam (median 9.2 µg·h/ml) in women is greater (p=0.06) than in men (median 7.5 µg·h/ml). On chronic administration of diazepam, therefore, women taking oral contraceptives will have greater plasma concentrations per unit dose of both diazepam and N-desmethyldiazepam than men. The clearance of diazepam in control groups of 11 young men (median 23.8 ml/min) and 10 young women not taking oral contraceptives (median 26.8 ml/min) is not significantly different. Plasma and salivary concentratrions of diazepam are correlated (p〈0.001) but the predictive value of this correlation is limited (r=0.70) since the ratio of salivary to plasma concentrations varies significantly over the day. The use of calculated free diazepam plasma concentrations does not improve the correlation (r=0.68) but the slope of this regression (1.00) is that predicted by theory.
