摘要:
Food intake exerts a complex influence on the bioavailability of drugs. It may interfere not only with tablet disintegration, drug dissolution and drug transit through the gastrointestinal tract, but may also affect the metabolic transformation of drugs in the gastrointestinal wall and in the liver. Different food components can have different effects, and food may interact in opposite ways, even with drugs that are chemically related. Therefore, the net effect of food on drug bioavailability can be predicted only by direct clinical studies of the drug in question.As judged mainly from single meal, single dose studies, food intake enhances the bioavailability of several different drugs, such as propranolol, metoprolol, hydrallazine, hydrochlorothiazide, canrenone (from spironolactone), nitrofurantoin, erythromycin (stearate), dicoumarol, phenytoin and carbamazepine, but reduces that of drugs such as isoniazid, rifampicin, tetracycline, penicillin and ampicillin, while having no consistent effect on the bioavailability of metronidazole, oxazepam, melperone, propylthiouracil, sulphasomidine and sulphonylureas. For some drugs such as digoxin and paracetamol, the rate but not the extent of absorption is reduced.Food may enhance bioavailability even though, or rather because, the rate of gastric emptying is reduced; this is apparently the case with hydrochlorothiazide and nitrofurantoin. The food induced enhancement of bioavailability of propranolol, metoprolol and hydrallazine is probably due to reduced first pass metabolism of these drugs, while food induced improvement of drug dissolution may explain the enhanced bioavailability of carbamazepine, canrenone, dicoumarol and phenytoin. An increased gastrointestinal pH may be in part the cause of the food induced reduction of the bioavailability of drugs such as isoniazid and tetracycline.In addition to single meal effects, repeated intake of protein-rich meals enhance, while carbohydrate-rich meals reduce, the rate of oxidation of antipyrine and theophylline. Moreover, intake of charcoal broiled meat markedly accelerates the oxidation of phenacetin and variably accelerates elimination of theophylline. Thus, food and its components and contaminants may have both short and long term effects on both the absorptive and biotransformation processes influencing systemic availability of drugs.

摘要:
Pethidine is commonly used in single doses as a preoperative medication or in multiple doses as an analgesic. The clinical consequences of altered disposition are more likely to result from its analgesic use. Correlations between plasma pethidine concentration, analgesia and side effects such as respiratory depression, have been established, but considerable overlap exists between concentrations producing therapeutic and non-therapeutic effects. The current practice of intermittent pethidine administration (intravenous, intramuscular and oral) for analgesia results in fluctuations in pethidine plasma concentrations which are associated with incomplete pain relief and side effects. Continuous intravenous infusion of pethidine may avoid these difficulties.Changes in pethidine disposition have been observed in patients with liver disease and in the elderly. Measurement of plasma pethidine concentrations may be helpful as an aid to the management of such patients. In renal disease, metabolites may accumulate and cause side effects.

摘要:
More than 25 years after phenylbutazone was introduced as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, basic knowledge is still accumulating on its pharmacokinetics in man. Phenylbutazone is almost completely absorbed after oral administration. A large fraction of the drug in plasma is bound to proteins, and the drug has a small volume of distribution. Phenylbutazone is eliminated by metabolism, only 1% being excreted unchanged in the urine. Approximately 10% of a single dose of phenylbutazone is excreted in bile as metabolites. About 60% of the urinary metabolites have been identified. A novel type of drug metabolite in man, the C-glucuronide, is formed by direct coupling of the pyrazolidine ring of phenylbutazone to glucuronic acid via a C-C bond. Phenylbutazone is oxidised in a phenyl ring or in the side chain to hydroxylated metabolites, which may undergo subsequent O-glucuronidation. After a single dose, C-glucuronidation seems to be the dominant reaction, while oxidation becomes increasingly important after repeated administration. Due to different pharmacokinetic properties of the metabolites, the C-glucuronides are detected in highest concentrations in the urine, while the pharmacologically active compounds oxyphenbutazone and &ggr;-hydroxyphenbutazone predominate in plasma.The biological (elimination) half-life of phenylbutazone in man is long, with a mean of about 70 hours, and exhibits large interindividual and intraindividual variation. The interindividual variation is largely due to genetic factors. The intraindividual variation is dose and time dependent. In an individual there may be several critical dose levels where a change in the elimination kinetics takes place.Since there is no correlation between the plasma level and the clinical or toxic effects of phenylbutazone, there is at present no need for routine monitoring of plasma concentrations of the drug.

摘要:
Chlordiazepoxide was the first benzodiazepine derivative made available for clinical use. The metabolic pathway of chlordiazepoxide is complex, since the drug is biotransformed into a succession of pharmacologically active products: desmethylchlordiazepoxide, demoxepam, desmethyldiazepam, and oxazepam. The elimination half-life (t1/2&bgr;) of chlordiazepoxide following single doses in healthy individuals generally ranges from 5 to 30 hours, and the volume of distribution from 0.25 to 0.50 liters/kg. The hepatic extraction ratio is well under 5%. Elimination of the parent compound is mirrored by formation of the first active metabolite.Clearance of chlordiazepoxide is reduced and t1/2&bgr;is prolonged in the elderly, in those with cirrhosis, and in those receiving concurrent disulfiram therapy. Oral chlordiazepoxide is rapidly and completely absorbed, but intramuscular injection is painful and results in slow and erratic absorption. Multiple-dose therapy with chlordiazepoxide results in accumulation of the parent compound, as well as two or more of its active metabolites. The rate and extent of accumulation varies considerably between individuals.A relation between plasma concentrations of chlordiazepoxide and its metabolites to clinical effects has been suggested in some studies and is currently under further investigation.

摘要:
The pharmacokinetics of intravenously administered netilmicin, an investigational aminoglycoside antibiotic, were studied in 38 patients with creatinine clearance ranging from 150 to 0ml/min/1.73m2in order to determine the influence of kidney function status on the disposition of the antibiotic. The serum disappearance of netilmicin followed first order kinetics and the elimination rate constant decreased proportionally with decreasing renal function. Half-lives averaged 2.2 hours in normal individuals (creatinine clearance > 80ml/min/1.73m2) and reached 42 ± 10 hours (mean ± SD) in virtually anephric patients. The elimination rate constant lowered proportionally with decreasing renal function.Several linear relationships between pharmacokinetic parameters and renal function indicators were defined. A clinically useful correlation indicates that the half-life may be approximated as 3 times the serum creatinine concentration and may be used for adjustment of dosage of netilmicin in the treatment of patients with impaired renal function. During haemodialysis, netilmicin extraction from the blood reaches 75 ± 14% (mean ± 95% confidence interval) of that of creatinine and 88 ± 19% of that of blood urea nitrogen.

摘要:
A gas liquid chromatographic assay was developed to measure in plasma and urine concentrations of the new antiarrhythmic drug lorcainide, its dealkylated metabolite and an added internal standard of similar structure. The limit of sensitivity was 10ng/ml plasma. In 5 healthy volunteers and in 6 patients with ventricular premature beats (VPB) the pharmacokinetics were determined after a single intravenous dose of 100mg. In 4 of the patients with VPB, the disposition was also evaluated under steady-state conditions following oral administration of 100mg twice daily. In 4 of the healthy volunteers, the bioavailability of a single 100mg (n = 2) and 150mg (n = 2) oral dose was determined. In an additional crossover experiment, bioavailability of a single oral dose of 100 and 200mg was also measured in 2 patients with VPB.Less than 2% of the intravenous dose could be recovered as unchanged lorcainide in the urine, indicating extensive metabolism. The drug was bound to plasma proteins to the extent of 85.0 ± 5.0% (mean ± SD) in healthy subjects and 83.3 ± 2.9% in patients with VPB. Since the plasma levels declined biexponentially after an intravenous dose, data were analysed according to a 2-compartment open model. The elimination half-life (t1/2&bgr;) of 5.1 ± 0.6h (healthy subjects) was somewhat longer (p = 0.02) in patients with VPB (7.6 ± 2.2h), but total plasma or blood clearance were very similar; the latter approaching a normal liver blood flow of 1.5L/min. The apparent distribution volumes Vd&bgr; (8.6 ± 2.4L/kg vs 10.7 ± 4.2L/kg) and Vdss(6.4 ± 2.4L/kg vs 8.8 ± 3.4L/kg) showed no statistically significant difference between the healthy subjects and patients.After oral doses, high and saturable first-pass hepatic metabolism seems to exist. The crossover experiments in 4 subjects indicated bioavailability of about 1 to 4.5% after a single 100mg dose, between 7 and 20% after a 150mg dose, and between 35 and 65% after a 200mg dose. In contrast, 3 of 4 patients with VPB on oral maintenance therapy exhibited bioavailability of 100%. This indicates that lorcainide belongs to the group of drugs exhibiting non-linear elimination kinetics.
