    Notes: Summary The time-courses of plasma carbamazepine concentrations were followed in six apparently healthy adult subjects who, at different times, took single oral drug doses of 200, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 mg. There were some suggestions of impaired bioavailability of the drug when given in tablet form. The following values were obtained for various pharmacokinetic parameters:k abs =0.176±0.209 h−1;k=0.0203±0.0055 h−1; T1/2=37.5±13.1 h; VD=0.825±0.1041 · kg−1; Clearance=0.0163±0.0061 l · kg−1. The elimination rate constant showed a statistically significant increase with increasing drug dose. This may help explain the clinical observation that the rate of rise of steady state plasma carbamazepine concentrations tends to decrease with dose increase in patients taking carbamazepine alone.

    Notes: Summary Five epileptic women needing to commence phenytoin therapy during pregnancy received a single intravenous and a single oral dose of phenytoin several days apart before starting regular intake of the drug. Plasma phenytoin concentration — time data were analysed by three different pharmacokinetic techniques. However assessed, the mean oral bioavailability of the drug proved to be about 90% of the intravenous bioavailability. This finding makes it unlikely that impaired bioavailability accounts for the increase in oral phenytoin dosage necessary in pregnancy to maintain plasma phenytoin concentrations at pre-pregnancy values. Phenytoin clearance in the pregnant subjects was approximately double the published values for phenytoin clearance in nonpregnant persons. This suggests that increased (metabolic) clearance accounts for the increased phenytoin dosage requirement of pregnancy.

    Notes: Summary The steady-state 72 h urinary excretion of various phenytoin metabolites has been measured in 10 epileptic women, whose plasma phenytoin concentrations relative to the phenytoin dose fell during pregnancy and rose again post-partum. In later pregnancy and post parturn, a mean of 61.3 % and 48.9 %, respectively, of the total daily phenytoin dose was eliminated as 5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (p-HPPH). Even thoughp-HPPH accounts for not much more than half the total daily phenytoin dose, increased excretion of this metabolite sufficed to account for the elimination of the entire increase in the dose of phenytoin required during pregnancy. There was no definite increase in the excretion of any other (minor) metabolite measured. Thus pregnancy seems not to enhance uniformly the capacity of the various metabolic pathways of phenytoin.
