    Notes: Summary A simple high performance liquid Chromatographic assay for the determination of plasma glibenclamide concentrations is described. This resolved glibenclamide from normal plasma constituents. The calibration curve of the assay was linear over the range 10–500 μg/1 and the minimum level of detection was 2 μg/1. Within-assay coefficients of variation were 11.6% (20 μg/1); 5.3% (50 μg/1); 6.8% (100 μg/1); between-assay coefficients of variation were 8.4% (20 μg/1); 4.7% (50 μg/1) and 7.4% (100 μg/1). The assay was used to study the pharmacokinetics of a 1 mg intravenous dose of glibenclamide in eight normal subjects. The mean half-life was found to be 1.47±0.42 h (SD) and no evidence for a non-linear β-phase or slowly equilibrating ‘deep’ compartment was found although this could not be rigorously excluded. The mean systemic drug clearance was 78±29 ml·h-1·kg-1 and the apparent volume of distribution in the β-phase was 155±44 ml/kg. The median time of maximum response of plasma immunoreactive insulin was 25 min and the median time of maximum blood glucose response was 53 min. No correlation could be found between the pharmacokinetics of glibenclamide and these responses in fasted normal individuals.

    Notes: Summary The systemic availability of ergotamine after a single therapeutic oral or rectal dose was studied using a radioimmunoassay during the headachefree state in 24 patients suffering from migraine. Plasma concentrations of the drug were compared with anamnestic data about its clinical effects in the same patients. Among 12 patients with a good therapeutic response to medication, the mean plasma ergotamine levels stayed in the range 0.20 to 0.50 ng/ml for 6h. Their mean plasma levels at 30 min (0.33ng/ml) and 1h (0.40ng/ml) were significantly higher than those (0.06 and 0.08ng/ml, respectively) in 9 patients with only a moderate therapeutic response. In 9 patients with a moderate and 3 with a poor therapeutic response, the mean plasma level generally stayed below 0.10ng/ml. The mean peak concentrations in moderate (0.13 ng/ml) and poor (0.11ng/ml) responders appeared later (at 3h) than in good responders (at 1h). Side effects of the medication appeared to be associated with relatively low plasma levels of ergotamine and also with delayed maximum plasma concentrations of the drug. The present results suggest that the time of the maximum plasma drug level is an important determinant of the clinical effects of ergotamine, and that a good therapeutic response may be expected if a plasma ergotamine level of 0.20ng/ml or more is achieved within 1 hour after oral or rectal administration.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of bendroflumethiazide (BFT) was investigated following the oral administration of 10 mg to 3 healthy volunteers. Each subject participated twice in the study. BFT was determined in plasma and cantharides blister fluid from 1/2 to 30 h post administration. Blister fluid was obtained from blisters 10–22 h old. Plasma levels were fitted to a tri-exponential equation and the concentration of the drug in the peripheral compartment was calculated from the microscopic rate constants. In 5 of 6 cases investigated, cantharides blister fluid levels paralleled the concentration of the drug in the peripheral compartment. The mean blister fluid levels exceeded the calculated concentration in Compartment 2 1.46 fold. In one case, the blister fluid level paralleled the plasma level. This subject clearly differed from the others as more than 10 h were required for blister formation in her. The results suggest that following the administration of BFT, cantharides blister fluid behaves as part of the peripheral compartment. The possible value of studying blister fluid levels in pharmacokinetic investigations is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Erythromycin kinetics were studied in 17 patients with end stage renal failure treated with maintenance haemodialysis and 9 normal volunteers to discover if dialysis patients needed a modified dose. The elimination half life in dialysis patients (on dialysis days) was similar to that reported in normal subjects. Only small amounts of drug appeared in the dialysate, no patient loosing more than 9 mg in one dialysis. Both patients and volunteers had similar plasma concentrations 8 h after the end of a 5-day course. Protein-binding did not change significantly during dialysis and was similar to that reported in normal subjects. We conclude that dialysis patients requiring 1.5 g of erythromycin stearate daily or less can be given normal doses.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of oralL-threo-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine (L-threo-DOPS) was studied in 7 normal subjects and 7 patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy. Each person swallowed a single 300 mg dose in the fasting state, andL-threo-DOPS in plasma and urine was determined by high performance liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detector after separation on a boric acid gel column.L-threo-DOPS was slowly absorbed by normal subjects; the maximum plasma concentration occurred 3 h after administration and 20% of the oral dose was recovered unchanged in the urine within 12 h. It induced a substantial elevation of plasma norepinephrine levels, the peak being attained at 5 h, but without any change in blood pressure. In the patients, the absorption and metabolism ofL-threo-DOPS were delayed, and a prolonged pressor response was observed, with a peak after 8 h. It was concluded that the effects on plasma norepinephrine and blood pressure of oralL-threo-DOPS were essentially equal to those of twice as large a dose ofDl-threo-DOPS.

    Notes: Summary To investigate the pharmacokinetics of TRIS, an infusion of the buffer was given to 6 healthy volunteers (121 mg/kg=1 mmol/kg; pH 7.4) and to 20 patients suffering from metabolic acidosis (109–376 mg/kg; pH 10.9). The drug exhibited two-compartment characteristics in volunteers (t0.5,β=5.6 h) and patients with intact renal function (t0.5,β=16.3–45.6 h). The final volume of distribution (Vβ) indicated uptake into tissues, but equilibration between body compartments was slow. Mainly unchanged TRIS was eliminated by the kidney; 82% of the administered dose was recovered from 24 h-urine of healthy subjects. In the patients a linear correlation between creatinine-clearance and TRIS-clearance was observed, the latter always being somewhat greater than the former. Only insignificant amounts of the drug were found in bile and gastric juice. In anuric patients the plasma concentration of TRIS declined monoexponentially, with a half-life between 10 and 58 h. Haemodialysis or haemofiltration did not influence this process. From the data it seems questionable whether cellular uptake of TRIS is an important factor in the therapy of intracellular acidosis, but the possibility of drug accumulation must be borne in mind if repeated doses are given to the same patient.

    Notes: Summary Two formulations of indapamide tablets (2.5 mg) were given as a 5.0 mg dose and the subsequent blood levels were compared to those obtained after administration of a 5.0 mg solution. The study was conducted as a randomized three-way crossover design using healthy male volunteers. The drug was well tolerated by all the subjects involved. The area under the blood concentration versus time curve, extrapolated to infinity was essentially the same for all three formulations (4.2, 4.7, and 4.4 µg-h/ml). Statistical comparison of the blood levels from the two tablets showed that one tablet had a significantly greater maximum blood concentration (263 vs 231 ng/ml) and a significantly shorter time of maximum blood concentration (2.3 vs 3.5 h). Cmax (333 ng/ml) and tmax (0.7 h) values for the solution were significantly higher than either tablet. The average half-life (β-phase) for all three formulations was 15 h, while the average systemic clearance was 20 ml/min. Indapamide has a low clearance rate and there was no evidence that the drug undergoes a first-pass effect.

    Notes: Summary Furosemide was measured by gas-liquid chromatography in blood and dialysis fluid from 7 children with chronic renal failure, undergoing regular haemodialysis. It was administered chronically, in two or three daily doses (4.2–9.4 mg/kg). Two children received 1 mg/kg intravenously for determination of the pharmacokinetics. The half-life was longer than in adults and in anephric patients on haemodialysis. Systemic and renal clearance were also much lower. Plasma protein binding in 2 out of 6 cases was reduced as campared to normal adults. The data do not suggest any need to modify the present dosage schedule despite the 4–5 fold increase in the half-life of furosemide. The contribution of haemodialysis to drug clearance was minimal, and accounted for less than 10% of the total clearance.

    Notes: Summary Bendroflumethiazide (Bft) was administered to 6 healthy subjects at 3 different dose levels (2.5, 5 and 10 mg) in a cross-over design, either as capsules (2.5 mg) or as tablets (5 mg). Its pharmacokinetics were evaluated then and following administration of a fixed combination of Bft with propranolol and hydralazine to a further 7 volunteers. Plasma and urinary concentrations of Bft were determined by a new fluorimetric — thin-layer chromotography procedure. Peak plasma levels occurred after 2–3 h and averaged 15, 27 and 45 µg/l in the three dose groups. Areas under the plasma concentration — time curves (AUC0→12), which were 75, 147 and 250 µg l−1 h respectively, and cumulative urinary recovery (20%) were independent of the dose administered and the type of formulation. Thus Bft kinetics proved to be linear within the dose range evaluated. The plasma clearance was calculated to be 505 ml/min, renal clearance 108 ml/min and nonrenal clearance 396 ml/min. Bioavailability of Bft was not altered following administration of the fixed combination. The amount of propranolol found in the circulation did not change, whereas that of hydralazine (determined as apparent hydralazine) increased by 59% when the fixed combination was administered.

    Notes: Summary An high-pressure liquid chromatographic method was used to measure allopurinol and oxipurinol in plasma and urine in 6 healthy volunteers after a single intravenous or oral dose of allopurinol. The influence of coadministrated benzbromarone and hydrochlorothiazide on the pharmacokinetics of allopurinol and oxipurinol was also investigated. After intravenous injection of allopurinol 300 mg the plasma disappearance was biexponential, with a mean distribution half-life of 2.32±1.08 min $$(\bar x \pm SD)$$ and an elimination half-life of 47.8±10.6 min. The total clearance of allopurinol was 11.37±2.70 ml/min/kg, whereas its renal clearance was only 1.73±0.79 ml/min/kg. Oxipurinol disappeared monoexponentially from plasma ith a mean half-life of 12.2±2.6 h. Its renal clearance was 0.42±0.091 ml/min/kg. After oral administration of allopurinol 300 mg the peak plasma concentration of 2.1±0.6 µg/ml (1.5×10−5 M) was reached within 30 to 120 min. The peak level of oxipurinol of 5.8±1.5 µg/ml (3.8×10−5 M) was found within 2 to 5 h after intravenous and oral allopurinol. The bioavailability of oral allopurinol computed from plasma data was 90.4±8.7%. The total recovery from urine was 77% (allopurinol 8%, oxipurinol 69%) after oral and 88% after i.v. administration. It was concluded that about 10% of the oral dose was not absorbed and that 12% was eliminated by an unknown mechanism, presumably as riboside. The pharmacokinetics of allopurinol and oxipurinol were not significantly influenced by coadministration of benzbromarone or hydrochlorothiazide.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of furosemide was studied in 7 patients with diagnosed liver cirrhosis and in 7 healthy subjects. Furosemide in plasma and ascitic fluid was analyzed spectrofluorometrically. After a single intravenous dose, the cirrhotic patients showed lower initial plasma concentrations of furosemide because of the larger volume of distribution. The mean half-life in cirrhotic patients was significantly greater than in healthy volunteers. The longer half-life was associated with a reduction in the serum clearance of furosemide. Ascitic fluid volume in the patients ranged from 4.6 to 7.71. There was no significant amount of furosemide in the fluid. The diuretic interchange between this fluid and plasma was slow, as peak concentrations ranged from 0.3 to 0.5 µg/ml within 3 to 5 h after bolus administration of furosemide. Diuresis and urinary sodium excretion, 5 h after furosemide injection, were similar in both groups; larger potassium excretion was found in the cirrhotic patients.

    Notes: Summary A simple and reliable HPLC method for the determination of tienilic acid ((TA) Selacryn®, Selcryn®, Diflurex®, Ticrynafen®) and its alcoholic metabolite in plasma and urine has been developed. In 8 healthy adult volunteers the plasma and urinary levels of tienilic acid and its alcoholic metabolite, and plasma and urinary levels of sodium, creatinine and uric acid were measured after oral administration of tienilic acid 250 mg. The pharmacokinetic parameters found differed only slightly from those reported in the literature, as there was faster absorption and a shorter half-life. TA is probably excreted by a saturable renal tubular transport mechanism. The pharmacodynamic effects of tienilic acid developed quickly, the uricosuric effect being very impressive and the natriuretic effect moderate. These effects disappeared in about 8 h. An inverse relationship was found between the starting plasma uric acid level in an individual and the maximal uric acid clearance — the higher the plasma uric acid level, the lower was the maximum effect. Plasma tienilic acid level and natriuretic effect were correlative within individuals and intra-individually (p〈0.05). Urinary tienilic acid level and natriuretic effect were correlated, too (p〈0.05 top〈0.001), but only intraindividually. No correlation between drug level and uricosuric effect was found.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of clonidine and its relation to blood pressure response and side effects were studied after single oral doses of 75 µg, 150 µg and 250 µg in normotensive subjects. Following oral administration, the drug was absorbed rapidly after an initial lag time of 19–22 min and peak levels were reached between 2.4 and 2.9 h. Sampling over 48 h was necessary for accurate estimation of pharmacokinetic parameters. Post-peak plasma concentration declined in a monoexponential manner and the half-life of the elimination phase ranged from 9.0 to 15.1 h. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under curve (AUC) increased proportionally with increasing doses. Clonidine produced significant reductions in the pulse rate and a dose dependent decrease in blood pressure. Clonidine (150 µg) also produced significant reductions in plasma catecholamine levels.

    Notes: Summary Plasma concentrations of metoprolol, propranolol oxprenolol, acebutolol and its metabolite diacetolol were measured after single oral doses in young healthy volunteers. In order to assess the inter-and intra-subject variability the following pharmacokinetic parameters were compared: AUC o 24 , Cmax, tmax and t1/2. The smallest variation in inter-subject variability was seen with oxprenolol and acebutolol: intrasubject variability was more uniform. Female volunteers taking an oral contraceptive generally had higher AUC o 24 and Cmax values than those not. This finding reached statistical significance only for metoprolol AUC o 24 .

    Notes: Summary The disposition kinetics of a single i.v. dose of amikacin was studied in 6 neonates (6–25 days old), 10 infants (4–18 months) and 8 young children (3–11 years). There was a progressive change in the distribution and elimination kinetics during development. The distribution coefficient of the antibiotic averaged of 0.429, 0.320 and 0.210 l/kg in the newborns, infants and young children, respectively and serum half-life (t1/2 β) in these three groups averaged 2.812, 1.803 and 1.196 h, respectively. Significant differences in certain pharmacokinetic parameters were found between the values in paediatric patients and in adults receiving the same dose. A linear relationship was established between the distribution volume of the antibiotic and the weight of the patients, as defined by the following equation: $${\text{Vd}}_{{\text{ss}}} \left( 1 \right) = 0.976 + 1.140 \cdot {\text{TBW}}\left( {{\text{kg}}} \right);r = 0.954$$ The results suggest that a regimen of very frequent administrations should be employed in infants and young children in order to maintain a therapeutic level throughout treatment.

    Notes: Summary The excretion of radioactivity has been investigated in 3 healthy volunteers following rapid intravenous administration of 5 g of [35S]-ticarcillin. The radioactive dose was rapidly and completely excreted, since within 4 days 98.5% was recovered, 95% in the urine and 3.5% in faeces. All the urine radioactivity was accounted for as ticarcillin and its penicilloic acid. Plasma and urine samples collected from the volunteers at frequent intervals during the first 6 h of the experiment were assayed for penicillin by an automated chemical method and also for radioactivity. The results obtained by the chemical autoanalyser method were in excellent agreement with the plasma levels of radioactivity. From the data it was possible to calculate the renal clearance of the penicillin, a mean value of 104 ml/min was observed in the 3 volunteers. A further three volunteers were dosed intravenously with a 5 g bolus of non-radiolabelled ticarcillin in a cross-over study with and without predosing with probenecid. Serum samples were analysed by the chemical method for penicillin and the data subjected to pharmacokinetic analysis using a two compartment open model. The results indicate a shift of the distribution equilibrium of ticarcillin from the serum into the peripheral compartment after predosing with probenecid. Furthermore, the mean half-life of ticarcillin in the serum of the three volunteers was significantly increased from 1.3 h to 2.1 h by predosing with probenecid.

    Notes: Summary Repeated doses of a new β-adrenoceptor blocking agent, befunolol, were administered orally to adult male volunteers for a cross-over comparison with propranolol. The β-adrenoceptor blocking activity of befunolol was greater than that of propranolol when assessed by the percentage reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia. The elimination half-life of drug was significantly prolonged on repeated administration of propranolol, but not of befunolol. The percentage reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia was highly correlated with the log plasma level of each drug. Both drugs produced a significant reduction in pre-exercise systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and significant attenuation of exercise-induced rise in systolic blood pressure.

    Notes: Summary Plasma concentrations of orphenadrine were measured by a specific gaschromatographic method in 5 healthy male volunteers after a single oral dose of orphenadrine hydrochloride 100mg. The single dose pharmacokinetic profile of orphenadrine was evaluated from these data. The elimination half-life ranged from 13.2–20.1 h after the commercial tablet formulation. Plasma concentrations, determined in volunteers and patients under different conditions of repeated oral administration of the same formulation of orphenadrine hydrochloride exceeded the theoretical values, predicted from the single dose pharmacokinetics, by a factor 2 to 3. The elimination half-lives after discontinuation of treatment showed a 2 to 3-fold increase over the single dose values. This demonstrates a clear discrepancy between the multiple and single dose pharmacokinetics of orphenadrine. Experiments in dogs suggested competition for biotransformation between orphenadrine and its metabolite N-demethylorphenadrine. Product inhibition of this type could explain the observed discrepancy.

    Notes: Summary Chronic treatment with conventional lithium carbonate was interrupted in a selected group of 40 psychiatric patients of mixed sex and race. All patients had normal renal function. Serum samples were taken 12, 24, 36 and 48 h after the last dose and lithium was assayed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Decay rates calculated for the 12–24 h and 36–48 h periods yielded different values. This was ascribed to the presence of an incomplete redistribution phase during the earlier period. The distribution of elimination rates determined during the later period gave a more symmetrical spread and approximated a normal distribution. The mode, median, mean and standard deviation of the lithium elimination half-lives were 12.5, 14, 18.2 and 7.3 h and 22.5, 24.5, 29.8 and 10.1 h for the two periods, respectively. The results contrast sharply with another report of the distribution spread of elimination half-lives in a much larger sample. The current values have implications for dosage prediction, serum level monitoring and dosage formulation, especially sustained-release preparations. The evidence was against the possibility that some individuals ‘retain’ lithium.

    Notes: Summary The kinetics of ergotamine has been investigated in migrainous patients using a new, specific, sensitive HPLC assay (detection limit 100 pg/ml plasma). 10 patients were given ergotamine tartrate 0.5 mg i.v. and 5 of them received the same dose i.m. 2–3 weeks later. Blood samples were collected for up to 54 h following administration and the plasma concentration were analysed. After intravenous administration the plasma ergotamine declined rapidly, with an initial distribution half-life of 3 min followed by a mean terminal half-life of 1.86 h (range 90–155 min). The mean total plasma clearance was 11.0 ml kg−1 min−1, and the volume of distribution (Vdβ ) was 1847.6 ml kg−1. Individual t1/2β showed a positive linear correlation with the individual Vdβ . The intramuscular absorption of ergotamine was rapid and maximum plasma levels were usually obtained 10 min following administration. The biological availability was incomplete and variable at 46.6% (range 28.3–60.8%).

    Notes: Summary Two preparations of dipyridamole have been studied by oral administration to 11 normal volunteers. The plasma levels of dipyridamole and its glucuronide were determined simultaneously by high performance liquid chromatography. The instant form (I.F., 100 mg) was administered four times daily and the slow release preparation (SRP, 200 mg) twice daily, for 3 days. Multiple blood samples were collected on Days 1–4 to provide plasma for assay, and simulteneously, platelet rich plasma was prepared for ex vivo study of the effect of dipyridamole on platelet uptake of adenosine. The pharmacokinetics of absorption and distribution of dipyridamole were described using a two compartment model with lag time and prolonged absorption. Strong inhibition of the platelet adenosine uptake was observed at therapeutic plasma levels. The inhibition of platelet adenosine uptake may be related to some of the pharmacological properties of dipyridamole.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of bacmecillinam and pivmecillinam were studied in healthy fasting volunteers given tablets in a cross-over, randomized order. The mean (±SD) peak levels of plasma mecillinam were 1.43±0.34, 2.73±0.43, and 4.62±1.41 mg/l after bacmecillinam 100, 200, and 400 mg and 2.38±0.65 mg/l after pivmecillinam 400 mg. The corresponding areas under plasma Vs time curves (AUC) were 2.21±0.19, 3.99±0.63, and 7.74±1.38 mg·h·l−1 for bacmecillinam and 5.35±0.93 mg·h·l−1 for pivmecillinam. The elimination half-lives were 0.8–1.1h for bacmecillinam and 0.7h for pivmecillinam. The 12 h urinary recovery of unchanged mecillinam after the 400 mg doses was 41% for bacmecillinam and 30% for pivmecillinam. The 400 mg dose of bacmecillinam gave a significantly higher plasma peak (p〈0.001), AUC (p〈0.001) and urinary recovery (p〈0.001) than did pivmecillinam 400 mg. The plasma peaks appeared earlier and the rate of absorption was higher after bacmecillinam than after pivmecillinam (p〈0.05). In conclusion, bacmecillinam had a better bioavailability than pivmecillinam in the tablet formulations studied. The AUC increased linearly with increasing doses of bacmecillinam.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of terodiline HCl was studied in nine healthy volunteers given 12.5 mg i.v. and p.o. or 20 mg i.v. and 25 mg p.o. on two different occasions. The serum concentrations were measured by gas chromatography — mass spectrometry, using deuterated terodiline HCl as the internal standard. After i.v. administration the kinetics could be described by a two-compartment model with a mean distribution half life of 0.3 h and a mean elimination half life of 63 h. The serum clearance and apparent volume of distribution varied about 4-fold with mean values of 4.8 l/h and 417 l, respectively. After oral administration, the mean half life of absorption was 0.7 h and that of elimination 65 h. The absolute bioavailability varied between 64% and 105% with a mean of 92%. The long serum half life of terodiline should permit its once daily administration.

    Notes: Summary Five and 10 mg single oral doses of a new vasodilator antihypertensive, endralazine (E) were given on separate occasions to 17 normal male volunteers (8 slow, 7 heterozygous fast and 2 homozygous fast acetylators). The homozygous fast acetylators were excluded from statistical comparisons. Only small differences were observed in the pharmacokinetics of E between the phenotypes and there was no evidence of non-linearity at the 2 dose levels studied. Terminal half-lives ranged from 2.59 to 7.14 h with a mean of 4.30±1.08 h for the 5 mg dose and 4.25±1.09 h for the 10 mg dose. There was no significant difference in half-lives between slow and heterozygous fast acetylators. The mean area under the plasma level-time curve (AUC 0 ∞ ) was 18.2% lower (p〈0.05) in the heterozygous fast acetylators than in the slow acetylators following the 5 mg dose and 11.0% lower (p〉0.05) following the 10 mg dose. Extremely rapid absorption of the drug precluded accurate estimation of absorption rates. The AUC 0 ∞ of the acetylation metabolite (methyltriazoloendralazine) was small compared to that of E although higher in the heterozygous fast acetylators than in the slow acetylators (p〈0.01).

    Notes: Summary Twenty-nine cases of self-poisoning with antidepressants (amitriptyline, imipramine, clomipramine, maprotiline, doxepine, nortriptyline, opipramol) were examined by frequent observation of CNS effects, heart rate, blood pressure and standard ECG, 24 h-ECG-monitoring, measurement of systolic time intervals, EEG recordings and frequent measurement of serum levels of antidepressants and primary metabolites. None of the patients died. Maximum total serum antidepressant level (parent compound + desmethyl metabolite) ranged from 20 to 2200 µg/l, with concentrations above 500 µg/l in 11 cases. The serum amitriptyline concentration remained high for 3–4 days in some of the severely intoxicated patients and the decay curves were compatible with partly saturated elimination. A degree of unconsciousness and the occurrence of excitation and hallucinations were generally seen in cases with total serum antidepressant levels above 500 µg/l. Grand mal seizures occurred more frequently at high antidepressant levels, but could not be predicted from the EEG recordings. Increased heart rate and prolonged QRS- and QTc-intervals were significantly correlated with the total serum antidpressant level. 24 h-ECG-monitoring revealed no serious arrhythmias or instances of heart block. Hypotension was only seen initially in few patients. Systolic time interval measurements showed changes suggesting impaired myocardial performance (elevated PEP/LVET ratio) at intermediate (60–500 µg/l) but not high (〉500 µg/l) total serum antidepressant levels. Measurement of serum concentration in antidepressant intoxication is important for identification of patients with high serum levels and the corresponding risk of developing toxic reactions, and to exclude patients with a low concentration who do not require intensive observation.

    Notes: Summary Thirty one in-patients suffering from depression were treated orally with clomipramine (Cl) at various dosage, for 28 days, after a “wash-out” period of three days. In 17 patients receiving 75 mg per day of Cl, steady state plasma levels of Cl were reached at Day 14, and steady state plasma levels of its active metabolite, desmethylclomipramine (DMCl), were reached at Day 21. In contrast, in 7 other patients receiving a dosage increasing to 150 mg per day at Day 7, mean plasma levels of Cl and DMCl continued to rise during the entire treatment period. At the steady state, a correlation was found between Cl dosage expressed as mg kg body weight and the plasma concentration of Cl and DMCl. Factors such as tobacco and alcohol consumption seem to modify the Cl/DMCl ratio. A comparison of clinical response with plasma levels of Cl, DMCl and Cl + DMCl showed a significant negative linear correlation.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of caffeine was examined in 13 premature infants (gestational age 25–34 weeks, birth weight 920–2060 g, postnatal age 1–42 days) who received the drug for treatment of opnoea. Caffeine (1% aqueous solution) was given i.v. in single doses; guided by the clinical response infants received between one and seven (mean 2.6) doses of 15 mg/kg. Mean (± SE; range) Clb was extremely slow − 8.5 ml/kg/h (±0.4; 5.8–12.2), t1/2 was prolonged − 65.0 h (±3.7; 48.2–87.5 h) and Vd was 0.781/kg (±0.04; 0.47–1.01). No significant correlation was found between Clb, t1/2 and postnatal age in the whole group or in individual infants. Effective plasma concentrations varied over a wide range (12–36 µg/ml) and overlapped with subtherapeutic concentrations (⩽24 µg/ml). Single doses of 15 mg/kg i.v. or p.o. prevented apnoea in most cases, if necessary followed by additional doses. Monitoring the blood level of caffeine in infants receiving frequent repeated doses is necessary to prevent toxicity.

    Notes: Summary The plasma concentrations of mebendazole and its metabolites have been monitored in twelve patients after receiving a 10 mg/kg dose for cystic hydatid disease. The mebendazole plasma concentration-time profiles differed considerably between patients; elimination half-lives ranged from 2.8–9.0 h, time to peak plasma concentration after dosing ranged from 1.5–7.25 h and peak plasma concentrations ranged from 17.5 to 500 ng/ml. The mean peak plasma concentration of mebendazole after an initial dose (69.5 ng/ml) was lower than found in patients during chronic therapy (137.4 ng/ml). The plasma AUCTs for the major metabolites of mebendazole (methyl 5-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-2-benzimidazole carbamate and 2-amino-5 benzoylbenzimidazole) were about five times the plasma AUCT found for mebendazole in patients on chronic therapy. It is suggested that the slower clearance of these polar metabolites relative to mebendazole results from enterohepatic recycling. Since mebendazole is also highly plasma protein bound, caution should be observed in administering mebendazole to patients with liver disease. Concentrations of mebendazole found in the tissue and cyst material collected from two patients during surgery ranged from 59.5 to 206.6 ng/g wet weight.

    Notes: Summary The influence of urinary pH on the acute disposition of methadone in man was studied in five healthy volunteers. A cross-over experiment was performed in each subject. In the first experiment the subjects were treated with ammonium chloride (urinary pH ≈ 5.2) and in the other the urine was made alkaline (pH ≈ 7.8) by treatment with sodium hydrogen carbonate. d, 1-Methadone-HCl 10 mg (M) was administered intramuscularly on each occasion and blood, saliva and urine levels of M were determined by mass fragmentography. Plasma half-lives, volumes of distribution and body clearances of M were calculated in both experiments. The plasma half-lives in the β-phase were 19.5±3.6 h (acidic urine) and 42.1±8.8 h (alkaline urine), respectively (p〈0.001). The volumes of distribution were increased when the pretreatment was changed from ammonium chloride to sodium bicarbonate, namely from 3.51±0.41 l/kg to 5.24±0.83 l/kg (p〈0.01). The body clearance decreased from 134±21 ml/min (acidic) to 91.9±9.1 ml/min (alkaline urine) (p〈0.01). The ration Mplasma/MRBC was about 2.3 and the elimination of M from RBCs was in good agreement with the plasma kinetics of M under both experimental conditions. The salivary levels of M did not reflect the plasma kinetics and considerable variation was seen in the ratio Msaliva/Mplasma (0.26–2.98). Thus, the present experiments demonstrate that pretreatment either with ammonium chloride or bicarbonate had profound effects on both the distribution and elimination kinetics of methadone.

    Notes: Summary Deuterated methadone (M-d30) and GC-MS were used to study the pharmacokinetics of methadone (M) during the induction stage of methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). A pulse dose of M-d3 was given on Days 1 and 25 of two dosage regimens, one with a continuous 30 mg dose (n=6), and the other with 30 mg for 10 days, followed by 60 mg as the maintenance dose (n=6). Plasma and urinary levels of M and M-d3 were measured throughout and plasma half-lives, oral bioavailabilities and volumes of distribution were calculated from the data of Days 1–2 and 24–26. The oral bioavailability of a methadone solution was found to be between 81 and 95%; elimination half-life in the β-phase varied between 19 and 58 h; the volume of distribution was 4.1±0.65 l/kg; and total body clearance of M was 54–195 ml/min and its renal clearance 3.4–34 ml/min. A consistent finding was a lower urinary pH and increased renal clearance during the first days of MMT as compared with after one month. In 4/12 of the patients dispositional tolerance was developed to methadone during the first month of treatment. The shorter elimination half-lives in those patients probably caused unacceptably high fluctuation in the body content of M during the 24 h dosage interval, and may have interfered therefore, with its therapeutic effectiveness

    Notes: Summary Serum theophylline concentrations after intravenous administration of a new short-term infusion (Euphyllin® Kurzzeitinfusion) were measured in 50 out-patients with chronic obstructive airways disease (COAD). An intravenous infusion of theophylline ethylenediamine 480 mg (corresponding to approximately 350 mg anhydrous theophylline) in 50 ml isotonic solution was given in 20 min. Blood samples were taken beforehand and 25 to 30 min and 1, 3 and 6 h after starting the infusion. 86% of the patients had a one-hour serum level in the therapeutic range of 8–20 mg/l, and 2 h later, this was true of 64% of the patients. The short-term infusion was well tolerated, even in cases with unknown high pre-infusion serum levels. Pertinent pharmacokinetic parameters were determined, such as total body clearance, apparent volume of distribution, and half-life of elimination. Geometric mean and 95%-confidence limits, derived from the log-normal distribution of these parameters, were: Cl=0.044 (0.018–0.109) l/h/kg ideal body weight, Vd=0.451 (0.258–0.789) l/kg ideal body weight, and t1/2(el)=7.1 (2.6–19.1) h.

    Notes: Summary Increased metabolism of pindolol in renal impairment has previously been suggested by pharmacokinetic calculations. The present study was a pharmacokinetic and metabolic investigation in 7 patients with severe renal impairment (endogeneous creatinine clearance below 5 ml/min). All the patients received pindolol 5 mg t.d.s. 5 days. On the sixth day, after an overnight fast, 14C-pindolol 5 mg was given orally as a solution to drink. Blood samples were taken for up to 72 h and urine was collected at intervals up to 96 h for measurement of unchanged pindolol by a fluorimetric method and total radioactivity by liquid scintillation counting. Metabolites in blood and urine were analysed after separation by HPLC. It was found that the plasma levels following a single dose of 14C-pindolol were similar to those observed in healthy volunteers, but the elimination half-life was slightly increased up to 11.5 h. The observed steady state plasma concentrations of pindolol were twice as high but they are still in the therapeutic range of 10 to 100 ng/ml. Therefore, the dose of pindolol could have been reduced by a factor 2, but the reduction was not essential. No active metabolite of pindolol was found in plasma or urine, but elimination of the metabolites was decreased. The elimination half-life following multiple doses was prolonged compared to normal and it was quite comparable to that found for the pharmacodynamic half-life in renal patients. The discrepancy between the present findings and the previous results for metabolism and pharmacodynamic half-life was probably due to the sensitivity of the fluorimetric assay of pindolol.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic parameters and oral bioavailability of the antiarrhythmic drug verapamil were determined in six patients with atrial fibrillation. Plasma samples were taken following i.v. injection of verapamil 10 mg (Isoptin® 2 ml), and oral verapamil 80 mg (Isoptin® 2 tablets of 40 mg). Verapamil and its N-demethylated metabolite, norverapamil, were analyzed to 1 ng/ml plasma by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using deuterated standards. Following intravenous injection, the disposition of verapamil followed a biexponential pattern with a fast distribution phase and a slower elimination phase (t1/2β=5.79 h), corresponding to a plasma clearance of 0.26 1/kg/h. After oral administration, only an elimination phase was evident, with the same elimination rate (t1/2β=5.53 h). The oral bioavailability was 10.5%±7.5%. The norverapamil formed after i.v. and oral administration of verapamil had plasma half-lives of 5.86 h and 6.77 h, respectively. The elimination of verapamil in patients with atrial fibrillation was decreased compared to that in healthy young volunteers and the oral bioavailability was lower. Very good correlation between the percentage reduction in heart rate and the log plasma concentration of verapamil was found in every patient during the elimination phase, irrespective of the route of administration. There was also a high correlation when the plasma concentration — effect data from all the patients were pooled (r=0.59,n=71;p〈0.0005).

    Notes: Summary Theophylline pharmacokinetics were studied in 12 infants (age 3 weeks–6.5 months) with bronchiolitis. 9 of the 12 patients received a single dose of aminophylline (5.0–8.5 mg/kg) whereas the remainder were at steady-state receiving multiple doses (2.5–5.0 mg/kg) of aminophylline. The dose was administered IV over 0.5–1.0 h. An HPLC method was used to measure theophylline concentrations in serum and urine. Peak serum concentrations of theophylline measured by HPLC ranged from 8.48–21.6 µg/ml. Total, renal and nonrenal clearance of theophylline ranged from 4.66 to 19.25, 1.07 to 5.76 and 3.59 to 16.83 ml/min/m2, respectively. Mean apparent volume of distribution and elimination half-life were 8.75 l/m2 and 11.38 h, respectively. Although no significant correlation was observed between age and theophylline kinetic parameters, clearance appeared to increase and half-life decrease with age. Our patients had a substantially lower clearance and longer half-life as compared to published data in children 〉1 year of age. A five-fold variation in theophylline clearance demonstrates the need for monitoring theophylline serum concentration to minimize the risk of potential toxicity.

    Notes: Summary Tolmesoxide is a new, direct-acting vasodilator drug for use in the management of both hypertension and cardiac failure. In 6 essential hypertensives inadequately controlled by combined β-blocker and diuretic therapy (average supine blood pressure 178/103 mm Hg) the addition of tolmesoxide (300–900 mg daily) was associated with a significant improvement in blood pressure control (average supine blood pressure 161/89 mmHg). The effect of food on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of tolmesoxide have also been studied because, particularly at higher doses, the drug has been associated with upper gastrointestinal upset and it has been empirically recommended that it be taken with food. The blood pressure and heart rate responses were not significantly different when tolmesoxide was taken fasting or with food. Food resulted in a significant reduction in the peak plasma tolmesoxide concentration (2.14 µg/ml compared to 2.97 µg/ml) and a significant increase in the time to reach peak plasma concentration (1.67 h compared to 0.63 h). Although there was no impairment of its hypotensive effect, food significantly altered the pharmacokinetics of tolmesoxide and may therefore be useful in reducing the gastrointestinal disturbance associated with its use. In the treatment of inadequately controlled hypertension, tolmesoxide has a limited role as an alternative vasodilator.

After oral administration of a high dose of piretanide (96 mg), the pharmacokinetic parameters were: elimination rate constant 0.346±0.072 h−1, half life 2.00±0.35 h, and total plasma clearance 119.55±35.90 ml · min−1. Compared to the values obtained in adults with normal renal function, these results show a decrease in total plasma clearance, but conservation of the metabolic clearance which amounts to 45% of the total clearance in the healthy adult.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of melperone (Buronil®, Ferrosan, Sweden) was studied after administration of various parenteral and oral doses to man. After parenteral administration, the data could be fitted to a two-compartment model, but after oral dosing the distribution phase could not be separated from the elimination phase, and so an one-compartment model gave the best fit. The half-lives were about 3–4 h, except after intramuscular injection, when the half-life was about 6 h. The bioavailability of oral doses was about 60% of the intravenous injection. After the highest oral dose of 100 mg, the pharmacokinetics, expressed as AUC or Cmax, showed non-linearity, possibly due to saturation of the hepatic elimination system.

    Notes: Summary Pancuronium in bolus doses of 40 to 350 µg/kg was administered to surgical patients in order to evaluate the linearity of its pharmacokinetics. The profile of the plasma decay curve and of its urinary elimination were compared with reference to the administered dose. It was possible to superimpose the dose-normalized plasma decay-curves. The parameters of the two compartment-open model used to describe the pharmacokinetics of pancuronium were not influenced by the dose. The elimination half-life was 89±20 min and the plasma clearance was 1.84±0.38 ml/min/kg. The profiles of cumulative urinary excretion were also dose-independent. After 6 and 24 h, 57% and 69% of the administered dose, respectively, had been excreted in the urine. The results indicate that the pharmacokinetics of pancuronium is linear.

    Notes: Summary The concentrations of lormetazepam and its glucuronide in plasma and milk were determined during administration of 10 daily doses of lormetazepam 2 mg (2 tablets of NOCTAMID® - 1) to five mothers delivered by Caesarian section. Their babies were breast-fed throughout the study, and the plasma levels of lormetazepam and its glucuronide were determined three times in the babies. At 12 and 24h after administration, the plasma level of lormetazepam was about 3.5 ng/ml and 1.8 ng/ml in mothers, and below 0.09 ng/ml in the children. In milk the lormetazepam concentration was below 0.2 ng/ml. The plasma level of glucuronide varied between 24 ng/ml at 12h and 11 ng/ml 24h after administration. Almost no accumulation of unchanged lormetazepam was observed (factor: 1.3). The ratio of the levels of lormetazepam in milk and plasma was estimated to be below 0.06, and for the glucuronide the ratio was 0.04. The quantity of free and conjugated active ingredient transferred to the children via breast milk was calculated to be at most 100 ng/kg, corresponding to 0.35% of the maternal dose, which is regarded as tolerable.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of antipyrine in plasma and saliva, and urinary excretion of its major metabolites, were studied following i.v. and oral administration of antipyrine 500 mg to 6 healthy volunteers. Data from both plasma and saliva showed that the oral bioavailability of antipyrine given as an aqueous solution was complete. The saliva/plasma concentration ratio was constant with time from about 3 h onwards, with a mean value of 0.87 after oral and 0.91 after i.v. administration. It is concluded that the pharmacokinetic parameters of antipyrine can be satisfactorily established on the basis of salivary data, although the volume of distribution and clearance values are then slightly too high. After i.v. administration, 3.8±1.9% of the dose was excreted in urine as unchanged antipyrine in 48h, 24.9±6.3% as 4-hydroxyantipyrine, 16.5±3.2% as norantipyrine, 13.0±2.2% as 3-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine and 5.8±1.0% as 3-carboxy-antipyrine. No significant differences were observed following oral administration. The half-lives calculated from the linear part of the urinary excretion rate curves of the metabolites were about the same for oral and i.v. administration, and were of the same order of magnitude as the elimination half-life of parent drug in plasma and saliva. It is important for determination of the ultimate metabolite ratio that urine is collected for at least 36h, because there is a delay in the excretion of 3-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine in urine.

Using the ideal dosage regimens, practical regimens with feasible dosing intervals of 6, 8 and 12 h were computed, which should result in therapeutic concentrations of 0.4 to 1.3 µg/ml. For uraemic patients and geriatric patients above the age of 75 years it would be desirable to have an additional oral 100 mg dosage form.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Differences in the plasma concentrations of drugs after oral administration are caused by two main factors: variation in absorption ratios and in the distribution processes in the body. A new method for the dissection of both types of factors is discussed. The method uses a reference regression of the AUC-values to the corresponding values after intravenous infusion of graded doses. The reference regression is estimated from an appropriate trial. Deviation of the determined AUC-values from the regression curve afford an estimate of the residual variance due to varying distribution volumes or similar random biological effects. For the estimation of absorption ratios after oral administration the drug is given orally to another sample of subjects and their AUC-values are calculated. The deviation of these AUC values due to the above mentioned random effects are simulated using the residual variance of the reference regression, and are subtracted from the observed AUC-values. Then, the differences in the corresponding absorbed doses are transformed by inverting the reference regression. From these doses the empirical distribution function and statistical parameters (e.g. quantiles) are determined. The method has the advantage that no restrictive assumptions are required, such as first order processes, dose linearity, homogeneity of variance or normal distribution of absorption ratios. Its applicability to substances with qualitative differences in their pharmacokinetics is demonstrated by appropriate examples.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic characteristics of amoxycillin were studied in healthy volunteers after intravenous injection of 250 mg, 500 mg and 1,000 mg, and infusion of 2 g and 5 g. Serum concentrations were fitted using either bi- and tri- exponentional equations. Comparison of the regression curves obtained revealed that the three-compartment model gave a better fit to the serum concentration versus time curve. It was evident that there was a third, slow, dose dependent phase of disposition. This result has been confirmed by the fact that the terminal half life of amoxycillin on cessation of a continuous infusion is significantly greater than after acute administration.

In 5 mg (maleate) i.v. bolus studies in 2 subjects, plasma CPM levels were fitted to triexponential equations with terminal half-lives (t 1/2) of 23 and 22 h and area of 3.6 and 3.21/kg, respectively. Intravenous data predicted hepatic blood extraction ratios for the 2 subjects to be 0.06 and 0.07, respectively. Absolute bioavailability from oral solution (10 mg) was 59 and 34%, and from tablets (8 mg) 44 and 25%, respectively, indicating extensive gut first-pass metabolism. Mean t 1/2 from 7 oral fasting studies in 5 subjects was 28 h (19–43 h). Mean absorption lag time was 0.7 h (0.4–1.3 h), and mean peak time was 2.8 h (2–4 h). In 2 subjects, 6 mg solutions were given every 12 h for 9 doses; good correlation between single and multiple dose kinetics was found. Significant accumulation was demonstrated in simulation studies with frequent daily dosing. Estimated accumulation ratios vary from 4.1 to 9.4 (mean 6.5). The t 1/2 from urinary data (collected for 12 days) was consistent with plasma data. The above results suggest the need to reexamine the current practice of frequent daily dosing and the use of sustained or controlled release dosage forms of this drug. The possible cause of reduced plasma clearance of CPM in renal patients is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Noscapine was administred to five healthy volunteers in a randomized crossover design, as an intravenous infusion of 66 mg, and as an oral 150 mg dose of either rapidly dissolving tablets or a tablet containing ion exchange resin-bound noscapine. After i.v. administration, the disposition of noscapine was bi-exponential with an elimination half-life of 2.6 h; the total plasma clearance was 22 ml/min/kg and the volume of distribution (Vdarea) was 4.7 l/kg. The absolute oral bioavailability was 30%, with a 3.6-fold interindividual variation. There was no pharmacokinetic evidence to support a prolonged action of the ion exchange resin tablet.

    Notes: Summary The influence of food on the kinetics of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) in serum and suction blister fluid was evaluated in a cross-over study in 19 psoriatic patients under PUVA treatment. The peak serum concentration of 8-MOP was reached 1.5 h after ingestion on an empty stomach, and in suction blister fluid the maximum concentration was already present in the first sample taken after 2 h, the time when UVA radiation was given. The postprandial kinetics of 8-MOP in serum and suction blister fluid differed, the highest levels being reached, respectively, at 2.4 and 3 h after intake, i.e. in both body fluids after irradiation had started. The side effects of 8-MOP, such as nausea and dizziness, in the two groups were similar. The present results indicate that to optimize the therapeutic effect of PUVA in individual patients, 8-MOP should be given on an empty stomach.

    Notes: Summary The haemodynamic response and pharmacokinetics of single dose oral tolmesoxide were studied at various dose levels in 4 patients with severe hypertension. There was a reproducible fall in mean arterial pressure from baseline of 24.2% and a rise in heart rate of 37.6% following administration of tolmesoxide. The onset of antihypertensive action occurred within 1 h, with a peak effect at 3 h after dosing. The mean duration of action was up to 12.0 h. Tolmesoxide had a mean half-life of 3.0 h. It was rapidly absorbed with a mean peak plasma level occurring at 1.0 h. Plasma levels correlated well with the doses administered. Side-effects included mild nausea, facial flushing and postural symptoms.

    Notes: Summary The effect of chronic oral contraceptive (OC) usage on the disposition of theophylline was examined. Aminophylline solution (4 mg/kg) was given orally to 8 healthy female non-OC users and to 8 healthy women who were chronic (〉6 months) OC users. The OC user group had a significantly lower total plasma clearance of theophylline than women not using OC (35.1±5.6 vs. 53.1±14.5 ml/h/kg). The t1/2 was also significantly prolonged in the OC group (9.79±1.43 vs. 7.34±1.75 h) while the volume of distribution was similar between the 2 groups. The serum ethinylestradiol (EE) concentrations after oral OC administration were measured simultaneously. The apparent clearance of EE was about 30% lower in the OC users. A significant positive correlation was found between the apparent clearance of EE and the plasma clearance of theophylline. The effects of OC are predominantly due to chronic use with decreased elimination of both theophylline and EE.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic parameters of deacetyl metipranolol were determined after i.v. infusion of increasing doses (6–25 mg) in 17 normal volunteers. In a second cross-over trial, deacetyl metipranolol 10 and 20 mg were infused in a further 10 subjects, and in a third trial another 20 volunteers received metipranolol 40 mg orally. Metipranolol is very rapidly and completely deacetylated in man, so all pharmacokinetic data refer to deacetyl metipranolol, which was assayed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using a recently developed model, using a volume of distribution which is variable with time. The following data were obtained after oral administration: (mean values); lag-time 7.3 min; tmax 50 min, invasion half-life 6.3 min; elimination half-life 3 h; urinary excretion of unchanged drug approximately 4% of the dose. The experiments with infusion of increasing doses, as well as the cross-over study with 10 and 20 mg i.v., showed dose-linearity of the kinetics. The respective mean half-lives of elimination were 2.6, 2.9 and 2.8 h. The mean total, renal and extra-renal clearances amounted to 1237 ml/min, 149 ml/min and 1068 ml/min, respectively. The distribution coefficient was 3.5 l/kg, and protein binding amounted to 70% within the range of therapeutic concentrations. Absolute bioavailability was found to be approximately 50% by several different evaluation procedures. Thus, the pharmacokinetic profile of metipranolol shares features of both the lipophilic and the hydrophilic groups of β-blocking agents.

    Notes: Summary Pharmacokinetic data for diclofenac sodium has been well established in healthy volunteers, whereas in patients with rheumatoid arthritis very little information is available in the literature. A single oral dose of enteric-coated diclofenac sodium was given to 10 patients with active rheumatoid disease, adopting the same procedures used for a group of 10 healthy volunteers in whom pharmacokinetic data was already available. Plasma specimens were collected over a period of 8h following administration and concentrations of diclofenac determined by GLC. Resulting plasma concentration curves were similar to those obtained in the healthy subjects in that areas under curves and terminal half-lives were comparable. However, peak concentrations of diclofenac were significantly reduced in the rheumatoid patients. The lower peak concentrations were correlated with the lower serum albumin levels in the patients which are associated with active rheumatoid disease.

    Notes: Summary A single intravenous dose of cimetidine 200mg was administered to 6 patients with severe chronic renal failure one hour prior to haemodialysis. The plasma concentrations of cimetidine and its sulphoxide metabolite at the start of haemodialysis were 2.74±0.12 and 0.76±0.08 µg/ml, and after dialysis for 4h 1.08±0.10 and 0.51±0.08 µg/ml, respectively (mean ± SE). The average haemodialysis clearance (ClHDa) of cimetidine during dialysis was 46–92ml/min at a dialysate flow rate of 320ml/min and blood flow rates in the 6 patients between 160–240ml/min. The mean ClHDa of the sulphoxide metabolite was 44% higher than that of cimetidine, and ranged between 49–148ml/min. During haemodialysis the mean plasma elimination half-life (t1/2) of cimetidine was 3.24h (range 2.08–5.08) and of the sulphoxide metabolite 9.49h (range 4.70–14.39). There was a significant relationship between the elimination rate constant (β) and ClHDa of the sulphoxide metabolite (p〈0.01), but no such relationship was found between β and ClHDa of cimetidine. However, there was a tendency to a relationship between β of cimetidine and the capacity to metabolise the drug, expressed as the ratio between the plasma concentrations of the sulphoxide metabolite and cimetidine after dialysis for 4h. These ratios ranged between 0.23–0.76, and the lowest ratio was seen in the patient with the lowest β value of cimetidine. Thus, the large variations in the plained by differences in their capacity to metabolise the drug. The mean total amount of cimetidine eliminated during dialysis was 27.3mg (range 17.9–31.8), which was 9.0–15.9% of the given dose. Between 12.2–21.2mg (mean 15.3) of the sulphoxide metabolite was eliminated in the dialysate. Major adjustment of the dose of cimetidine on days of dialysis is not necessary.

    Notes: Summary 7-3H-phenylephrine was given to 15 volunteers by a short-infusionn=4) or p.o. (10 volunteers, 1 patient with porto-caval anastomosis). Analysis of serum for free3H-phenylephrine and fractionation of urinary radioactivity was performed by ion-exchange and thin-layer chromatography. As almost the same3H-activity was excreted in urine after i.v. and p.o. administration, 86% and 80% of the dose respectively, complete enteral absorption can be assumed. A considerable difference was seen in the fraction of free phenylephrine, i.v. 16% of the dose versus p.o. 2.6%, which suggested reduced bioavailability. This was confirmed by comparison of the areas under the serum curve, which showed a bioavailability factor of 0.38. The result for the patient with porto-caval anastomosis was comparable to that in the normal volunteers. The biological half-life of 2 to 3h was comparable to that of structurally related amines, as were the total clearance of 2 1/h, and the volume of distribution of 340l. Metabolism to phenolic conjugates mainly after oral ingestion, and tom-hydroxymandelic acid after i.v. injection, again demonstrated thatm-hydroxylated amines are predominantly conjugated during the “first-pass” metabolism.

    Notes: Summary The elimination and bioavailability of two beta-blocking agents, propranolol and sotalol, were studied in 10 thyrotoxic patients, both before and after treatment with iodine-131. Each subject received in random order propranolol 160 mg and sotalol 160mg as single oral doses both while hyperthyroid and after euthyroidism had been achieved. The pharmacokinetics of sotalol was not affected by hyperthyroidism, whereas serum propranolol concentrations were significantly lower during hyperthyroidism than in the euthyroid state. During hyperthyroidism, the bioavailability of propranolol was significantly reduced (p〈0.05) and its clearance was increased (p〈0.005), whereas there was no difference in its serum t1/2. This indicates that the bioavailability of propranolol in hyperthyroidism is reduced by a mechanism which may depend on increased first-pass metabolism in the liver, or on an increased distribution volume of the drug. Both propranolol and sotalol caused a slight decrease in serum tri-iodothyronine concentration. As the effects of beta-blocking agents on the symptoms of hyperthyroidism are correlated with the serum concentration of the drugs, sotalol, with its long half-life and unaltered elimination in hyperthyroidism, has certain advantages over propranolol in the treatment of thyrotoxicosis.

    Notes: Summary Plasma samples and biopsies of vaginal tissue were obtained from 23 healthy women undergoing operative sterilization, 1 to 6 h after a single oral dose of ketoconazole 200 mg. Drug concentrations in plasma and tissue, were measured by a specific gas chromatographic method. The vaginal tissue concentration averaged 2.4 times less than the corresponding plasma levels. Equilibrium between tissue, and plasma was established within 1 h after dosing, when vaginal tissue levels exceeded 1 µg/g. Ketoconazole concentrations decayed monoexponentially over the time interval studied (1–6 h), with the similar half-lives of 1.2 and 1.4 h in plasma and tissue, respectively. Following an oral 200 mg dose, a tissue concentration not less than 0.01 µg/ml was maintained over a 12 h period. This concentration has been shown to prevent outgrowth of the invasive (pseudo) mycelial form ofCandida albicans. Hence, a b.i.d. or t.i.d. dosage schedule of ketoconazole in vaginal candidosis would give continuously effective levels at the site of infection. Ketoconazole concentrations in vaginal fluid are thought to be much higher than in the tissue because of ion-trapping. The present data may explain the efficacy of oral ketoconazole in the treatment of vaginal candidosis.

The slow-release tablet was absorbed more slowly than the capsule (tmax 3.7 h and 〈 2 h, respectively) and produced more even serum drug levels in 10 subjects. Side-effects, especially dizziness and diarrhoea, were less frequent after the slow-release tablet than during the capsule period.

    Notes: Summary The effect of physiologic variations of free fatty acid levels on in vivo valproic acid plasma protein binding was studied in 6 healthy adult subjects. 14 blood samples were taken during a 12-h dosing interval at steady state while in a fed condition and also during a 27 h fast. Free fraction and total valproate concentration were determined by equilibrium dialysis and GLC, respectively. Free fatty acid levels were determined from both fresh samples and samples incubated at 37°C for 12 h, the latter in order to simulate equilibrium dialysis conditions. Fasting resulted in increased serum free fatty acid levels in all subjects, ranging from 34–182% (p〈0.01). Incubation also caused free fatty acid levels to rise, more so in fed samples (50–87%,p〈0.01) than in fasting samples (10–50%,p〈0.01). Fasting resulted in a 9% increase in the mean free fraction for all subjects combined (p〈0.01). Regression analysis of 180 sets of values for free fraction, total valproate concentration and free fatty acid level suggested that valproate concentration accounts for 17% and free fatty acid level for 37% of the variation in free fraction. Mean clearance was unchanged by fasting despite an increased free fraction suggesting decreased intrinsic clearance (i.e. decreased metabolism) of valproate under these conditions.

    Notes: Abstract Sulfaethidole distribution and elimination in the rat was studied over a 90-fold dose range. This experimental design produced marked nonlinearity in the binding of Sulfaethidole to proteins in both interstitial fluid and plasma. Using a multicompartmental model consisting of binding of Sulfaethidole to plasma and interstitial fluid proteins, Sulfaethidole distribution in the body could be simulated. Urinary and biliary elimination of Sulfaethidole depended on the unbound drug mass in the plasma and urine flow. The results confirm the central role of the unbound species in the distribution and elimination of drugs with marked binding to plasma proteins.

    Notes: Abstract Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were studied in three dogs with interventricular coronary artery ligatures (ligature of Harris) and in three control animals. Weighted nonlinear analysis was used to fit equations describing two and three compartment open models to the experimental data, obtained after intravenous injection (5 mg/kg) of the drug. The three compartment model gave a reduction in the weighted sum of squared residuals and an improvement in the randomness of scatter of the experimental points about the theoretical curve. The postdistribution elimination half-life was longer, the area under the plasma elimination curve larger, and the total body plasma clearance and apparent volume of distribution was reduced in the animals with arrhythmias. The pharmacological response was assessed by recording the ECG and calculating the percentage of normal sinus rhythm/min. A combined pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model was used to analyze data from individual animals. ke0, a measure of the lag time of pharmacological response behind changes in plasma concentration, and Ce (50), a measure of the sensitivity of the cardiac site of action of the drug, were determined.

    Notes: Summary The bone resorptive factor and amphipathic antigen (AcA) previously identified by us in preparations fromActinomyces viscosus have been partially purified, characterized chemically, and compared. They elute at the same location on chromatography with Ac 22. The fatty acid composition of AcA and the bone resorptive factor is the same. Some differences in carbohydrate composition are observed. TheActinomyces factor does not affect calcium influx or cyclic AMP in isolated bone cells. Therefore it is concluded that AcA stimulates resorption either by gaining entrance into bone cells or by way of a yet undetermined second messenger.

    Notes: The statistical behavior of some common parameter estimation methods is investigated by simulation. The methods based on the maximum likelihood principle give the best estimates of parameters in a given model. An analysis of the possibilities for detecting systematic errors by means of the maximum likelihood method showed that this method gives at best the same information as other well known tests.

    Notes: A high-temperature molten carbonate electrochemical cell has been tested for use as a carbon dioxide concentrator in a manned spacecraft. Carbon dioxide is removed from a stream of cabin air supplied to the cathode of the bench scale cell. It is then concentrated through the molten carbonate electrolyte to the anode. The anode is fed either hydrogen (energy producer) or nitrogen (substance producer). Performance variation with gas flow rate, cell temperature, carbon dioxide partial pressure, and current are presented and analyzed.

    Notes: P-V-T-x data for the propane-perfluorocyclobutane system are reported in this paper. The data cover a temperature range from 329.4 to 397.7°K and a pressure range from 60 to 6920 kPa. The low pressure compressibility measurements were used to determine second virial coefficients of pure propane and pure perfluorocyclobutane and for seven of their mixtures. The prediction of second virial coefficients using an extended corresponding states principle is also reported. Excellent predictions of the second virial coefficients of both pure components and mixtures have been obtained using, in the case of mixtures, a binary interaction coefficient obtained from a study of the critical states of the system.

Though it is quantitatively more consistent with experimental data, it requires less computational efforts than the prevalent Fickian model. The adverse effects of dispersion on conversion are demonstrated both numerically and analytically using the new model.

A microbial film model (recently proposed by the authors) is used to characterize the bacterial activity and its interaction with adsorption and solids mixing. Solids mixing and mixing in the liquid phase are included in the analysis, as is the effect of microbial film growth on the settling velocity of the adsorbent particles. The interplay of film growth, bed stratification and solids mixing is discussed in detail.

    Notes: A fast and accurate method was developed for the integration of large sparse systems of stiff initial value ordinary differential equations. The system is ordered, decoupled and, if necessary, torn into subsystems (also called blocks) which are then solved by orthogonal collocation on finite elements. The size of these elements, or steps, is different for each subsystem and is a function of the stiffness of the set of equations constituting the subsystem. The steps are overlapped for maximum computational efficiency.

    Notes: A mathematical model for simulating particulate removal in gas-solid fluidized beds is developed based on bubble assemblage concepts and particulate collection mechanisms. The importance of fluidization mechanics on the overall fluidized bed filtration performance is emphasized in the present study. Model predictions of fluidized bed filtration efficiencies are shown to compare favorably to the experimental results of various investigations. Because of the general formulation of the proposed model, it is believed to be applicable in the design of fluidized bed filtration operations.

    Notes: The results of batch settling tests with various coal powders in model oils indicated that the viscosity and the aromatic/paraffinic nature of the oil influences the sedimentation and the aggregation rate of the particles. Oxidation of paraffin oil may result in the generation of surface active agents which retards the sedimentation of certain coals.

Specific results are given for both uniform and pore-mouth poisoning, with parallel and series poisoning mechanisms. Comparisons show a satisfactory agreement between theoretical and experimental results. A pellet effectiveness representing the combined effect of deactivation and diffusion is also developed in a form suitable for direct inclusion in reactor conservation equations.

    Thinning of a liquid film as a small drop or bubble approaches a solid plane (1982)

    Notes: When a small drop or bubble approaches a solid surface, a thin liquid film forms between them, drains, until an instability forms and coalescence occurs. A hydrodynamic theory is developed for the first portion of this coalescence process: the drainage of the thin liquid film while it is still sufficiently thick that the effects of London-van der Waals forces and electrostatic forces can be ignored. This theory describes the time rate of change of the film profile, given only the drop radius and the required physical properties. Predictions are compared with profiles measured by Platikanov (1964) for gas bubbles. It is concluded that, even with only a trace of surfactant present, the liquid-gas interface may be nearly immobile (tangential components of velocity are zero) and the surface viscosities will have little effect upon the drainage rate.

    Notes: A model is presented in which damaged pores are distributed throughout a network of undamaged pores within a spherical particle. The differential equations are solved according to the numerical procedure of Haynes, Jr. (1975). The model is intended to simulate more highly skewed chromatographic response curves than the two-zone model recently proposed by Chou and Hegedus (1978).Pulse chromatographic measurements in fresh NaMgA zeolites using i-butane as a tracer which only enters the macropores yield response curves with relatively low skew, which are readily fitted by a system of equations accounting for diffusion in a monodisperse pore system. For hydrothermally treated zeolites effective diffusivities and Henry constants are considerably lower and the skew higher than in fresh samples.Curve fitting with the model proposed below is quite satisfactory, and the characteristic parameters determined are approximately constant at the flowrates studied. Application of the model should not be restricted to hydrothermally treated zeolites, but may be extended to catalysts or adsorbents with macroporous structures damaged by other forms of ageing.

    Local drag reduction due to injection of polymer solutions into turbulent flow in a pipe. Part I: Dependence on local polymer concentration (1982)

    Notes: Aqueous solutions of drag-reducing polymers were injected into turbulent water flow in a pipe. The injection point was situated where the flow was well-developed. Thus, subsequent steamwise variations in pressure drop were due to the injected polymer spreading out across the pipe. The axial development of local drag reduction was monitored by a series of closely-spaced pressure tappings. The corresponding radial dispersion of the injected polymer, as it travelled downstream, was assessed by sampling the flow at various points.Local drag reduction, due to either point injection at the centerline or injection through a slot in the wall, was found to increase with distance downstream. This increase was related to the streamline increase of polymer concentration in a narrow annulus near the pipe wall. It was tentatively concluded that the effective annulus was bounded by 15 ≤ y + ≤ 100, in agreement with previous deductions from less direct evidence.

    Notes: Concentrations of NO, NH3, and HCN, together with coal particle burnout and gas composition, were measured during combustion of a bituminous coal. Control of incoming secondary gas swirl level and overall stoichiometric ratio led to significant reductions in nitrogen oxide pollutant concentration. In-situ measurements showed that coal particles were confined near the reactor center during rapid particle reaction. This took place in a locally fuel-rich environment, producing near-quantitative conversion of fuel-nitrogen to NH3 and HCN, with some NO. Subsequent gas phase reactions of these nitrogen species were identified as important in establishing the ultimate NO concentration.

    Holographic and photographic studies of high-quality steam-water critical flow (1982)

    Notes: High-quality (95%) steam-water critical flow through a straight pipe was studied using high-speed photographic and holographic techniques. The results indicate that most of the water exists as a discontinuous or continuous thin film which flows along the wall with a speed much slower than that of the steam. This results in slip ratios higher than those reported before. Although a separated flow model would seem to describe the actual flow situation more closely than other models, the assumption of thermal equilibrium between phases and the fact that the flow is not separated except close to the exit plane are probably explanations for differences in slip ratios obtained in this study from those predicted.

    Notes: A mathematical model of nitric oxide (NO) formation during pulverized coal combustion was developed from a proposed kinetic mechanism involving 12 overall chemical reactions. Most significantly, the model describes the complex conversion of coal bound nitrogen compounds to NO during combustion. The predictions of the model compare favorably with literature data obtained in well defined laboratory combustors firing gaseous fuels doped with organic nitrogen additives, as well as with data obtained in laboratory coal combustors. The predictions of the model are in qualitative agreement with trends observed in practical coal combustors.

    Notes: Aqueous solutions of p-nitrobenzoic acid were hydrogenated in the presence of Pt/C and Pd/C catalysts in a slurry reactor. External as well as internal mass transport steps were studied using a membrane H2-electrode and a metal probe electrode. After the influence of the mass transport effects was corrected for, it was possible to obtain corrected values of the kinetic characteristics of the overall chemical reaction. The mechanism was studied using potential and polarization methods.

    Kinetics of thermal regeneration reaction of activated carbons used in waste water treatment (1982)

    Notes: The kinetics of the thermal regeneration of activated carbons used in the waste water treatment was analyzed on the basis of a model that the regeneration reaction consists of a set of many first-order reactions each of which has different activation energy and frequency factor. The frequency factors were correlated approximately by a function of the activation energy.The difference in the activation energy was represented by a distribution curve which was obtained by analyzing the thermogravimetric curve (TG curve) measured under a constant heating rate. The weight loss during the regeneration reaction under complicated heating conditions was well predicted by use of the distribution curve determined by the proposed method. This method describing the kinetics of the thermal regeneration may be applied to the design of reactors regenerating spent carbons.

    Notes: The dynamic contact angles of various liquids on a gelatin-subbed polyester tape were investigated by plunging a tape into a pool of liquid, in the manner of Perry and of Burley and Kennedy. The effect of the upper fluid was studied by replacing the air normally present by immiscible oils. A fair correlation was found at the point of air entrainment, relating the capillary number, μV/σ, to a physical properties number, gμ4/ρσ3. A dimensional correlation, relating the air entrainment velocity to the viscosity to the -0.67 power, was even better. At various velocities, the dynamic contact angle (or the dynamic contact angle minus the static angle) could be related to the capillary number, the physical properties number, and to density and viscosity ratios. Again, the dimensional correlations were better than the dimensionless ones, perhaps caused by an omission of a significant dimensionless group due to our inability to choose a suitable characteristic length.With any one system, the data could be expressed as θ = kNCab above some minimum velocity, or, covering all velocities, as (θ - θs) = kNCab. With air as the upper fluid, all the data at one angle lie within one decade, with capillary numbers at air entrainment in the range of 0.6-1.3.

    Notes: Transport rates were measured by monitoring the pressure decay between two reservoirs connected by a polyethylene membrane. The diffusion equation was integrated to obtain a relation between the pressure difference across the reservoirs and the time, with solubility, expressed by Henry's law constant H, and the diffusivity D as parameters. A procedure was developed whereby both H and D are evaluated from a single set of Δp vs. t measurements. For argon in low-density polyethylene, H and D at 323 K were 35[kg·mo]/(m3 of gas)/[kg·mol/(m3 of polymer)] and 2.1 × 10-10 m2/s, respectively. For the high-density sample these values were 38.7 and 1.11 × 10-10 at 298.1 K.

    Notes: When a porous solid dissolves in acid, the dissolved solid can diffuse both into the bulk solution and into the solid's pores. In some cases, these dissolved species can precipitate in the pores, making the solid less permeable to acid. In other cases, the surface dissolution can produce precipitation near the surface and dissolution well below the surface. The results have implications for corrosion, including the demineralization of teeth.
