Both para-aminohippurate (PAH) and pyrazinamide inhibited the uricosuric response to probenecid administration. The mechanism of this inhibition of probenecid uricosuria was assessed in 18 male subjects. The decrease in uricosuria was assessed in 18 male subjects. The decrease in uricosuric response to probenecid observed after pyrazinamide administration or PAH infusion occurs by different mechanisms. Administration of PAH and probenecid together resulted in reduced excretion of both drugs. PAH was weakly uricosuric and did not appear to inhibit urate secretion. PAH inhibition of probenecid uricosuria is accounted for by inhibition of probenecid secretion. Probenecid excretion was not affected by pyrazinamide administration. Inhibition of probenecid-induced uricosuria by pyrazinamide is most likely due to inhibition of urate secretion. The urate secretory carrier inhibited by pyrazinamide appears to be independent of that responsible for secretion of probenecid and PAH. Probenecid secretion appears to be required for its uricosuric effect.

The effect of 40 µg of SCH 1000 (ipratropium bromide, an anticholinergic agent) on bronchodilation and suppression of exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) was compared with 400 µg of fenoterol and a placebo in a single-blind controlled study. Twenty-seven randomly selected asthmatic children performed a standardized treadmill exercise challenge and the 17 children who were shown to have EIB continued in the study. Pulmonary function was evaluated before and after drug administration and exercise. When individual results were analyzed and grouped according to the responsiveness of EIB to the drugs, two patterns emerged: (1) the EIB was more severe in those (6/17) children who did not respond to either drug than in the rest of the children; (2) the resting pulmonary function was significantly better in the children (4/17) who responded to both drugs than in those (7/17) who responded to fenoterol alone. In conclusion SCH 1000 was shown to be an effective bronchodilator comparable to, but no better than, fenoterol. It had minimal side effects. As an EIB inhibitor it depended on relatively normal base line pulmonary function and only a moderate deterioration following exercise, whereas fenoterol depended on the exercise response alone. Although anticholinergic drugs are not very extensively used, SCH 1000 may be useful in some patients where the β2 adrenergic drugs cause significant side effects or are contraindicated.
