    Notes: Summary Ten schizophrenic and five epileptic patients under antipsychotic drug treatment were studied to evaluate sleep-related GH secretion. Four of the schizophrenic patients had a high secretion peak of GH (range 15.2 to 38.0 ng/ml), four had a moderate peak (range 5.8–8.3 ng/ml), while two had no increase in GH secretion during sleep (range 0.5–1.0 ng/ml). Four of the five epileptic patients had a moderately increased secretion (range 5.8–9.2 ng/ml) and one had no increase in GH secretion during sleep. Thus, the GH secretory pattern varied with the patient as in known to be aiso with healthy individuals. However, no clear disturbances were noted in sleep-related GH secretion in schizophrenic patients receiving antipsychotic drug treatment, when comparede.g. to non-schizophrenic, epileptic patients under a same kind of drug treatment.

    Notes: Abstract The levels of serum prolactin were studied both after an acute intake of zimelidine and during a treatment period of 3–7 weeks. No significant changes in basal serum prolactin levels were seen after single oral doses of zimelidine (100 mg) in healthy volunteers during an investigation period of 12 h. Serum prolactin concentrations remained well within the pretreatment levels also during a continuous treatment of depressive patients with zimelidine up to 150 mg orally b.i.d. It is concluded that clinical doses of the selective 5-HT uptake inhibitor zimelidine does not exert any significant effect on serum prolactin levels.

    Notes: Summary Plasma concentrations of nitrazepam were measured by gas-liquid chromatography in: young healthy volunteers, in geriatric and psychiatric patients and in epileptic children. The disposition of nitrazepam was described in terms of a two-compartment open model. After a single oral dose of nitrazepam 5 mg the most prominent differences between the experimental groups were in the β-phase half-life-mean 29 h in the young volunteers and 40 h in geriatric patients, and in the apparent volume of distribution during the β-phase of 2.4 vs 4.8 l/kg. Total plasma clearance and the average steady state concentration in both groups were equal. The plasma level rose at a rate proportional to the β-phase half-life, and so, they were achieved more rapidly in the young than in the old subjects (3.5 vs 7.5 d). No change in steady-state level or in the half-life of nitrazepam were found during long term treatment, which indicates lack of enzyme induction or inhibition. In 95% of the epileptic children with a good to fair clinical response, the plasma concentration of nitrazepam was 40–180 ng/ml (mean 114 ng/ml). As all of the patients were on combined antiepileptic therapy, no attempt was made to correlate plasma level with therapeutic response.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ampicillin wird aufgrund seiner unvollständigen oralen Resorption oft in hohen Dosen verwendet. Das Ziel der Studie war, die Bioverfügbarkeit von Bacampicillin, einem neuen Ester von Ampicillin, das fast vollständig resorbiert wird, mit der von Ampicillin in hohen oralen Dosen zu vergleichen. Orale Einzeldosen von 400 mg und 800 mg Bacampicillin und von 500 mg, 1 g und 2 g Ampicillin wurden an 12 männliche Versuchspersonen nach Fasten über Nacht im cross-over Verfahren verabreicht. Von der Einnahme von 400 mg bzw. 800 mg Bacampicillin bis zum Erreichen maximaler Serumspiegel vergingen im Mittel 0,75 bzw. 1,0 Stunden, bei Ampicillin in Dosen von 500 mg, 1 g und 2 g betrugen die Zeitintervalle im Mittel 1,5, 2,0 und 1,5 Stunden. Der Mittelwert der individuellen maximalen Serumspiegel betrug nach 400 mg Bacampicillin 7,7 mg/l, er war höher als nach 500 mg Ampicillin (5,2 mg/l) und entsprach etwa der mittleren maximalen Serumkonzentration von Ampicillin nach oraler Einzeldosis von 1 g (7,6 mg/l). Die maximalen Serumspiegel stiegen nach Einzeldosen von 800 mg Bacampicillin im Durchschnitt auf 12,2 mg/l, etwas höher also als der Mittelwert nach Gabe von 2 g Ampicillin, 10,5 mg/l. Bacampicillin wurde schneller resorbiert als Ampicillin, eine Resorptionsrate von 90% wurde bereits nach einer Stunde erreicht, bei Ampicillin erst nach zweieinhalb Stunden. Die relative Bioverfügbarkeit von Bacampicillin war 2–3mal größer als die von Ampicillin. Die gefundenen Daten deuten auf eine Dosis-abhängige veränderte Resorption von oralem Ampicillin in hohen Dosen hin, da die Vergrößerung der Fläche unter der Serumkonzentrationskurve geringer als proportional zur Dosis erfolgt. Es verändert sich also die Dosis-Absorptions-Relation. Die Urin-recovery betrug bei Bacampicillin 68–75%, bei Ampicillin 25–41%. Höhere Dosen ergaben eine niedrigere prozentuale recovery, dieses Phänomen war bei Ampicillin stärker ausgeprägt.
    Notes: Summary Ampicillin is often used in high oral doses due to its incomplete absorption. The objective of this study was to compare the bioavailability of bacampicillin, a new prodrug of ampicillin which is nearly completely absorbed, to that of high doses of oral ampicillin. Single oral doses of bacampicillin 400 mg or 800 mg and ampicillin 500 mg, 1 g, or 2 g were given to 12 male subjects according to a cross-over design after overnight fasting. The median time after administration till the peak serum level was 0.75 and 1.0 hour with bacampicillin 400 mg and 800 mg respectively, as compared to 1.5, 2.0 and 1.5 hours for the ampicillin doses. The mean of the individual peak serum level after bacampicillin 400 mg, was 7.7 mg/l, which is higher than that after ampicillin 500 mg, 5.2 mg/l, and about the same as that after ampicillin 1 g, 7.6 mg/l. A slightly higher mean peak level was seen after bacampicillin 800 mg, 12.2 mg/l, as compared to ampicillin 2 g, 10.5 mg/l. The absorption rate was highest with bacampicillin, for which 90% of the absorption had occurred 1 hour after administration as compared to 2.5 hours after administration of ampicillin. The relative bioavailability was about 2–3 times higher after bacampicillin as compared to ampicillin. The data imply dose-dependent absorption of oral ampicillin in high doses as there seems to be a less than proportional increase in AUC. The urinary recovery after bacampicillin was 68–75% as compared to 25–41% after ampicillin. Higher doses gave a lower percentage recovery and this phenomenon was more pronounced with ampicillin.
