    Notes: Summary It is uncertain how the hypoglycaemic effect of sulphonylureas varies with drug concentration in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. The interrelationship of tolbutamide dosage and concentration, and glucose and insulin concentrations were therefore examined in 54 out-patients (the observational group) and in 20 patients studied under controlled conditions (the experimental group). In the observational group, tolbutamide concentration depended significantly on the daily dose, time from dose to sampling, body weight, and age. Blood glucose and insulin concentration were related, but were independent of tolbutamide concentration. In the experimental group, peak, but not pre-dose, tolbutamide concentration, depended on dose and on body mass index. Fasting and maximum post-prandial blood glucose concentration were positively correlated with maximum tolbutamide concentration, probably because tolbutamide dosage was highest in those with the poorest response. In the subset with a fasting blood glucose concentration of less than 8 mmol·l−1, neither glucose nor insulin concentrations depended significantly on tolbutamide concentrations. Tolbutamide concentration does not directly determine hypoglycaemic response in outpatients, and therapeutic monitoring of drug concentrations would not improve the management of such patients.

    Notes: Abstract Anticholinergic adverse-effects in children treated with conventional doses of oxybutynine led us to measure plasma oxybutynine levels in children. 18 children, aged 5 to 13 y, who required treatment with oxybutynine chloride for daytime incontinence were studied. Plasma concentrations were measured on the fifth day of a course of treatment in which the dose was adapted to the child's body weight; the dose was given twice daily at 12-hour intervals. In 10 children aged between 5 and 8 y, the mean dose was 0.1 mg · kg−1. In 8 children aged between 10 and 13 years, the mean dose was 0.15 mg · kg−1. The highest concentration was usually found between 1 and 2 h after administration. The subsequent fall in concentration was rapid and after 6 h oxybutynine was no longer measurable in 14 of the children. The concentrations found were not different from those seen in adults given equivalent doses. The results show that plasma concentrations in children were not very different from those observed in adults if the dose were adapted to the body weight of the children. No special differences in paediatric use were revealed that might explain the particular adverse-effects. The results of the study argue against the dosage regimen proposed before these adverse events were detected. They strongly favour a dose adapted to the body weight of the child, with a 12-hour interval between doses.

    Notes: Summary We have studied the pharmacodynamic effects of ramipril, propranolol, and their combination, as well as the effect of propranolol on the pharmacokinetics of ramipril in 12 healthy men (age 24 (SD 6) y, weight 72 (7) kg). Propranolol and placebo, ramipril and placebo, or propranolol and ramipril were given orally for four days in a crossover, double-blind fashion. The pharmacokinetics of ramipril and ramiprilat were investigated on day 4. Effects on plasma renin activity, ACE activity, and heart rate and blood pressure both before and after a standardized exercise test were measured on days 1 and 4. On day 4 the combination reduced the mean arterial pressure by 2.8 mmHg compared with propranolol alone and by 3.7 mmHg compared with ramipril alone. Ramipril had no effect on the bradycardia induced by propranolol. Propranolol reduced exercise mean arterial pressure by 9 mmHg (day 4) and heart rate by 7 beats.min−1 (day 4) compared with ramipril; this was not affected by co-administration of ramipril. On day 4 the average plasma renin activity was not significantly higher than after the combination. ACE activity was not affected by propranolol. The pharmacokinetics of ramipril and ramiprilat were not influenced by propranolol. The combination of ramipril and propranolol has additive pharmacodynamic effects that may be useful in the treatment of hypertension.

    Notes: Summary In this open, two-period crossover study in 18 healthy male volunteers, a single oral dose of 50 mg diclofenac was administered alone and on day 7 of multiple oral dosing of 5 mg b.i.d. isradipine to assess a possible pharmacokinetic interaction. The effect of these drugs on ex vivo platelet function was also determined. Serial blood samples were obtained over 12-hour periods on three occasions: after the single diclofenac dose; after the morning dose of isradipine on day 6 and after co-administration of both drugs on day 7 of steady-state isradipine administration. Additional samples were taken at 2 h post dose for determination of ex vivo platelet aggregation. Isradipine plasma concentrations were determined by a gas chromatographic method and diclofenac plasma concentrations by an HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of diclofenac were unaltered during co-administration. The maximum plasma concentration of isradipine was increased 19.6% during co-administration from 5.06 to 6.05 ng·ml−1. This is not expected to be of clinical importance. Isradipine's apparent total body clearance and steady-state AUC remained unchanged. Ex vivo induced platelet aggregation was not affected by any of the treatments.

    Notes: Summary We have studied the pharmacokinetics of tulobuterol given transdermally or by aerosol inhalation in healthy male volunteers. Tulobuterol was rapidly absorbed after inhalation, with a tmax of 0.8–1.5 h. The Cmax and the AUC increased linearly with dose. Tulobuterol was well absorbed after transdermal administration, with an absorption lag-time of about 4 h. The Cmax and AUC increased linearly with dose and the tmax was about 9–12 h. The mean percentage of drug absorbed during the application of a patch for 24 h was 82–90% after a single dose and 82–85% during repeated dosing. The mean urinary recoveries as unchanged drug after a single inhalation and patch application were 3–4% and 5–6% respectively. Tulobuterol did not accumulate during repeated inhalation or transdermal application. It was well tolerated, except for an increase in heart rate of 10–20 beats · min−1 after five repeated applications of a 4 mg patch.

    Notes: Abstract To prevent drug accumulation and adverse effects the dose of hydrophilic angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, e. g. lisinopril, must be reduced in patients with renal failure. To obtain a rational basis for dose recommendations, we undertook a prospective clinical trial. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were determined in patients with advanced renal failure (n=8; endogenous creatinine clearance [CLCR]: 18 ml·min−1·1.73m−2) and in healthy subjects with normal renal function (n=16; CLCR: 107 ml·min−1·1.73m−2). The volunteers received 10 mg lisinopril once daily, the daily dose in patients (1.1–2.2 mg) was adjusted to the individual CLCR according to the method of Dettli [13]. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment the mean maximal serum concentration (C max) in patients was lower than in volunteers (30.7 vs 40.7 ng·ml−1, while the mean area under the concentration-time curve (AUC 0–24 h) was higher (525 vs 473 ng·h−1·ml−1). ACE activity on day 15 was almost completely inhibited in both groups. Plasma renin activity, angiotensin I and angiotensin II levels documented marked inhibition of converting enzyme in volunteers and patients. Furthermore, average mean arterial blood pressure in patients decreased by 5 mmHg and proteinuria from 3.9–2.7 g per 24 h after 15 days of treatment with the reduced dose of lisinopril. Adjustment of the dose of lisinopril prevents significant accumulation of the drug in patients with advanced renal failure during chronic therapy. Mean serum levels did not exceed this in subjects with normal renal function receiving a standard dose. Despite substantial dose reduction, blood pressure and proteinuria decreases were observed.

    Notes: Summary A bioequivalence study of three brands of regular diltiazem — Angizem (A), Dilzem (B) and Herbesser (C) has been carried out in 5 healthy, male volunteers. After a single oral dose of 60 mg of each preparation, the mean AUC(0–8 h) and Cmax of preparation B was significantly higher than of brands A and C. The tmax of A and B was significantly lower than of C. B had a higher dissolution rate in vitro (98.8% dissolved in 45 min) than A and C. Thus, there was bioinequivalence of the three brands of diltiazem, due partly to differences in dissolution and perhaps in part to a first pass effect.

    Notes: Summary Fourteen normotensive patients with liver disease (6 with cirrhosis and 8 with chronic hepatitis) and 7 healthy volunteers were given a single oral dose of nilvadipine 2 mg. In addition, nilvadipine 4 mg was administered orally twice daily for several months to 6 hypertensive patients with mild liver dysfunction and 18 hypertensives with normal liver function. A significant increase in plasma nilvadipine was found in the patients with cirrhosis as compared both to the normal and chronic hepatitis subjects; the time to peak concentration was similar among the three groups. The peak plasma nilvadipine concentration was closely correlated both with the serum albumin level and the retention of indocyanine green. Changes in blood pressure, pulse rate and various vasoactive hormones following a single oral dose of nilvadipine did not differ between the groups. Thus, an increase in plasma nilvadipine relative to the level in normal subjects was demonstrated in patients with cirrhosis following a single oral dose, as well as in patients with slight liver dysfunction following long-term oral administration.

    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.
