    Notes: Summary Baclofen, a centrally acting muscle relaxant, is used in the treatment of spasticity. Its pharmacokinetics has been derived from plasma and urine data in four healthy subjects, whose renal function was simultaneously measured. After oral administration of a single 40 mg dose, baclofen was mainly excreted unchanged by the kidney, 69 (14) %. The half-life, calculated from extended least squares modelling (ELSMOS) both of plasma and urine data was 6.80 (0.68) h, which is longer than reported in most studies based solely on plasma data. The renal excretion rate constant had the high mean value of 0.35 (0.24) h−1, and the apparent renal clearance of baclofen equalled the creatinine clearance. Passive tubular reabsorption is relatively unimportant, since no dependence was observed on variables urine flow or pH. Although active tubular secretion may contribute to its renal clearance, as shown by the effect of coadministration of probenecid, glomerular filtration appears to be the dominant transport mechanism.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of short acting sulphonamides and a series of N4-acetylsulphonamide derivatives has been investigated. Sulphonamides with a sulphur atom two atomic bond distances from the N1 atom are excreted by active tubular secretion, e.g. sulphamethizole, sulphaethidole and sulphathiazole. When the sulphur atom is replaced by an oxygen or nitrogen atom, active renal excretion no longer occurs. N4-acetylsulphonamides are excreted by active tubular secretion. The renal clearance values of the N4-acetylsulphonamides are not influenced by the substituent at the N1 position. Two groups of N4-acetylsulphonamides can be distinguished. One has a T1/2 of 4–6 h and a renal clearance value of 20–60 ml/min and the second has a T1/2 of 10–20 h and a renal clearance of less than 10 ml/min. N4-acetylsulphonamides are deacetylated to the extent of about 5%.

    Notes: Summary Ceftazidime has good antibacterial activity against many Gram-negative micro-organisms including Ps. aeruginosa. The aim of the present study was to calculate a dosage adjustment regimen for renal failure patients and to test it in a second group of patients. A study was made of the pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime 1 g given as a single bolus i.v. injection in 20 patients in an intensive care unit with varying degrees of renal function, including patients on regular haemodialysis. The serum half-life of elimination (t1/2β) varied from 1.6 to 45 h depending on renal function. During haemodialysis the mean t1/2 was 4.7 h. A good correlation between the renal clearance of creatinine and ceftazidime was observed. In most patients protein binding was lower than previously observed. From the pharmacokinetic data, a dosage adjustment regimen for patients with renal insufficiency was calculated, which studies in 7 further patients showed to be effective.

    Notes: Summary In children with lymphoid malignancies 18 courses of methotrexate (18–200 mg/kg) administered as a 24-h infusion were monitored. Plasma concentrations and renal excretion rates of methotrexate (MTX) and 7-hydroxymethotrexate (7-OHMTX) were determined. A low correlation was found between the administered dose of MTX and the body exposure to MTX or 7-OHMTX. Although 84% of the MTX eventually recovered from the urine was excreted during the 24 h of the infusion, the renal clearance of MTX was markedly lower during the time of the infusion than after it. There were courses with a low and others with a high renal clearance of MTX during the infusion, despite the same urine flow. A low MTX renal clearance was correlated with a high body exposure to MTX. As the same variations were also seen in the same patient during successive courses, pharmacokinetical characterization of patients appears questionable. The renal clearance of 7-OHMTX was significantly lower than the renal clearance of MTX, and the body exposure to 7-OHMTX ranged from 2–40% of the MTX body exposure. Treatment courses with a low or a high body exposure to 7-OHMTX were not associated with different urinary recoveries of the metabolite. Differences in MTX hydroxylation could not be substantiated. Because the concentration of 7-OHMTX is high soon after the end of an infusion, a specific method of MTX determination should be chosen for controlling treatment.

    Notes: Summary After i.m. injection nicomorphine is relatively slowly absorbed from the muscular depot and is found in the serum for approximately 1 h. The rate of absorption differs between patients and governs the overall pharmacokinetic profile of the compound. The relative AUCs were nicomorphine 18%, 6-nicotinoylmorphine 17%, and morphine 65%. Nicomorphine and 6-nicotinoylmorphine have significantly higher AUCs after i.m. injection than after i.v. injection, while the AUC of morphine and the total AUC show no difference between the two modes of administration.

    Notes: Abstract Differences in pharmacokinetic data of aminoglycosides, ceftazidime and ceftriaxone between intensive care patients and volunteers or patients who are less severely ill, are described. Similar differences are observed for midazolam. In severely ill patients with normal renal function a wide interpatient variability of aminoglycoside half-life (t1/2) and increased distribution volume (Vd) are observed. This results in inadequate serum levels. A pharmacokinetic approach of drug dosing, based on serum concentrations in individual patients, is advised. For ceftazidime and ceftriaxone similar changes of t1/2 and Vd are observed. Since protein binding is frequently reduced in severely ill patients, the influence of altered binding of highly bound drugs on Vd and drug clearance is discussed. As both may be increased by reduced protein binding, the change of t1/2 to be expected is unpredictable. Dosing regimens should be based on pharmacokinetic data derived from patients whose severity of disease is comparable to that of the patients to be treated.

    Notes: Abstract The plasma concentration and flux of l-tryptophan are abnormal in primary depressive patients, according to the literature. The plasma concentrations of l-tryptophan over a 6-h period after ingestion of 5 g l-tryptophan were investigated and did not differ significantly between depressive patients and controls during the absorption, distribution, and elimination phases. There was no correlation between the plasma concentrations with anxiety or depression scores, or with the excretion in urine of 17-hydroxycorticosteroids and xanthurenic acid during the 24 h after l-tryptophan. Treatment with either 125 mg pyridoxine (three times daily with meals) and l-tryptophan (3 g at 10 PM) or with maprotiline (100 mg at 10 PM) had no influence on the plasma concentrations of l-tryptophan after 2 or 4 weeks of treatment. This excludes l-tryptophan deficiency as a pathogenic factor of depression in the patients studied. No kinetic differences could be demonstrated in the depressive patients, making differences in body compartments or flux of l-tryptophan unlikely to be of pathogenic importance to depression.

    Notes: Abstract A dose of 1,000 mg probenecid was administered orally to 14 human volunteers in order to quantify the maximal rate of formation and excretion of probenecid acyl glucuronide in the urine. Probenecid showed dose-dependent pharmacokinetics. Plasma protein binding of probenecid was high, being somewhat higher in males (90.7±1.4%) than in females (87.9±1.4%; p=0.0019). It was shown that probenecid is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 into at least two phase I metabolites. Each of the metabolites accounted for less than 12% of the dose administered; the main metabolite probenecid acyl glucuronide, representing 42.9±13.2% of the dose, was only present in urine and not in plasma. The renal excretion rate-time profile of probenecid acyl glucuronide showed a plateau value in the presence of an acidic urine pH. This plateau value was maintained for about 10 h at the dose of 1,000 mg. The height of the plateau value depended on the individual and varied between 250 and 800μg/min (15–50 mg/h). It was inferred that probenecid acyl glucuronide is formed in the kidney during blood-to-lumen passage through the tubular cells. We conclude that the plateau value in the renal excretion rate of probenecid glucuronide reflects itsV max of formation.
