Pioglitazone, an excellent insulin sensitizer, is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present investigation demonstrated a single dose pharmacokinetic study of pioglitazone tablet in 24 healthy male volunteers in a randomized protocol. Blood samples were collected before and 0.5 to 24.0 h after a single oral dose of a 30 mg pioglitazone tablet. Plasma pioglitazone level was determined using a validated method of reversed phase binary high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The pharmacokinetic parameters determined were 1.117 ± 0.315 (?g/ml), 2.5 ± 0.735 (h), 9.014 ± 3.385 (?g.h/ml), 8.081 ± 3.407 (?g. h/ml), 1.315 ± 0.964 (h), 0.707 ± 1.636 (h-1), 0.078 ± 0.02 (h-1) and 8.884 ± 03.808 (h) for Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-?, AUC0-24, Ka, T1/2 (?), Kel, and T1/2(?), respectively. Variation of pioglitazone pharmacokinetic parameters in Bangladeshi population compared to Chinese, Thai and German population may indicate the polymorphic variation in the pioglitazone responsive metabolizing gene CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 in our population.

This study was designed to assess the pharmacokinetics of almotriptan, a 5-HT1B/1D agonist, when administered in the presence and absence of propranolol. Healthy male ( n = 10) and female ( n = 2) volunteers received (i) 80 mg propranolol twice daily for 7 days and 12.5 mg almotriptan on day 7, and (ii) 12.5 mg almotriptan on day 7, according to a two-way crossover design. Plasma and urinary almotriptan concentrations were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. Treatment effects on pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed by analysis of variance (anova). Statistically significant differences between treatments in area under the curve (AUC), clearance, and half-life were observed ( P < 0.03), but these differences were < 7%. Ninety percent confidence interval analysis of log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters showed that the treatments were equivalent. Adverse events were mild to moderate in intensity, and no treatment effects on vital signs were observed. The results show that propranolol has no effect on the pharmacokinetics of almotriptan. Concomitant administration of the two drugs is well tolerated.

AbstractIn this study, a sensitive and reliable method for the quantitation of fenofibric acid in rat plasma was developed and validated using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The plasma samples were prepared by deproteinization, and sildenafil was used as an internal standard. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed-phase (C18) column. The mobile phase, 0.02 M ammonium acetate buffer:acetonitrile (35:65, v/v), was run at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, and the column eluent was monitored using an ultraviolet detector at 280 nm at room temperature. The retention times of sildenafil (an internal standard), and fenofibric acid were approximately 5.9 and 7.7 min, respectively. The quantitation limit of fenofibric acid in rat plasma was 0.03 μg/mL. Pharmacokinetic parameters of fenofibric acid was evaluated after oral (at doses of 20 mg/kg) administration of JW322 and fenofibrate in rats. After oral administration (20 mg/kg) of JW322, relative bioavailability was approximately 272.8% compared to fenofibrate.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Borneol on the pharmacokinetics of notoginsenoside R1 (NGR1) and the ginsenosides Rg1 (GRg1) and Re (GRe) inPanax notoginseng. Reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ion trap mass spectrometry was employed to determine the concentrations of the three compounds in rabbit plasma. In comparison with rabbits administratedPanax notoginsengextract alone, animals simultaneously takingPanax notoginsengextract and Borneol exhibited significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters of NGR1, GRg1, and GRe, such as increasing their bioavailability. Quantities of NGR1, GRg1, and GRe in rabbit tissues were also increased after combining administration of Borneol. In addition, the apparent permeability coefficients (Papp) of NGR1, GRg1, and GRe were raised by Borneol significantly in Caco-2 cells. However, no significant changes were observed in the efflux ratio (Er) of NGR1, GRg1 and GRe. These data indicate that Borneol has the properties of enhancing the intestinal absorption, increasing the distribution, and inhibiting the metabolism of NGR1, GRg1, and GRe. The underlying mechanism might be attributed to the loosening of the intercellular tight junction.

The pharmacokinetics (PK) of ordinary tablets and sustained release capsules of diltiazem hydrochloride in human clinical trials had been studied. The PK of diltiazem hydrochloride delay-onset sustained-release pellet capsules, a new dosage form, has not been reported, although it is very important to clinical use. In this paper, we investigated the PK of diltiazem hydrochloride delay-onset sustained-release pellet capsules and the food influence in Chinese healthy volunteers. The PK parameters indicated that the diltiazem hydrochloride delay-onset sustained-release pellet capsules appeared marked characteristics of delayed and controlled release. An opened-label, randomized and parallel clinical trial was conducted in 36 Chinese healthy volunteers with single oral dose (90 mg, 180 mg or 270 mg) and a multiple oral dose (90 mg d-1×6 d) administration. The effect of food on the PK of one single oral dose (360 mg) was investigated in 24 healthy Chinese volunteers. Plasma diltiazem concentration was determined by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and the main pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by PKSolver (Ver 2.0). All clinical studies were conducted in the Clinical Pharmacological Center (No. JDX1999064) of Xiangya Hospital Affiliated Central South University, China. The PK parameters suggested that the new formulation had marked characteristics of delayed and controlled release of diltiazem, and food intake did not alter significantly diltiazem pharmacokinetic parameters.

The present study was designed to get preliminary idea about the pharmacokinetic behavior of the Bangladeshi population through estimating plasma amoxicillin concentration by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet detection. In this study, Bangladeshi healthy volunteers were divided in two groups, 8 Bangladeshi Bangalee and 7 Bangladeshi Tribal male healthy volunteers. Both the groups received 500 mg of amoxicillin in oral route and blood samples were collected at 0, 30, 60, 120, 180, 360 and 480 minutes after drug administration. After 1 week of washout period, same volunteers of two groups received 500 mg of amoxicillin in intravenous route. In case of oral route, the Cmax, AUC0–8h, Tmax and T1/2 values for Bangladeshi Bangalee and Tribal healthy volunteers were 6.78 ± 1.20 & 9.10 ± 1.34 ìg/mL, 1290.13 ± 158.39 & 1766.06 ± 188.37 ìg min/mL, 82.50 ± 32.05 & 102.86 ± 29.28 min and 96.05 ± 3.80 & 88.15 ± 5.33 min respectively. The difference in Cmax, AUC0–8h and T1/2 values between these two groups of volunteers was significant (p<0.01, p<0.001 and p<0.01 respectively). However, the difference in Tmax was not significant (p>0.05). In case of intravenous route, the C30 min and AUC0–8h values for Bangladeshi Bangalee and Tribal healthy volunteers were 17.88 ± 1.14 & 18.58 ± 0.71 ìg/mL, 2297.96 ± 222.49 & 2376.41 ± 149.99 ìg min/mL respectively and the difference was not significant (p>0.05). The T1/2 for Bangladeshi Bangalee and Tribal healthy volunteers were 97.50 ± 3.33 & 94.40 ± 2.33 min respectively and the difference was significant (p<0.05). The Mean Percent Absolute Bioavailability in Bangladeshi Bangalee and Tribal healthy volunteers was 56.76 ± 5.39 and 74.17 ± 3.90 respectively and the difference was highly significant (p<0.001). The study concluded that the pharmacokinetic parameters of amoxicillin significantly varied among Bangladeshi Bangalee and Bangladeshi Tribal healthy volunteers indicating necessity of further study on population pharmacokinetic to formulate tailor-made drug therapy in these groups of people. http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjpp.v26i1-2.19958 Bangladesh J Physiol Pharmacol 2010; 26(1&2) : 1-9

A simple, specific, sensitive and rapid reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed and validated for the determination of telmisartan in small volumes of rat plasma. Biological sample preparation involving simple extraction with organic solvent, followed by dilution with mobile phase was adopted to eliminate any chromatographic solvent effects. The method was proven to be linear over a plasma concentration range of 10 to 1000 ng/mL with a mean correlation coefficient of 0.9942. The limit of detection and the limit of quantification of the newly developed method were determined to be 1 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL, respectively. The method was successfully applied to assess pharmacokinetic parameters of telmisartan in Wister rats following a single oral dose (1.8 mg/kg, b.w.). The developed method was established as a rapid analytical tool in a pharmacokinetic study as it required short retention time, high precision, sensitivity and small volumes of plasma for analysis.
