1. We have studied the effects of a non-absorbable osmotic load on the absorption of a multicomponent solution of frusemide, atenolol, hydrochlorothiazide and salicylic acid in six healthy volunteers. 2. Each subject was studied on up to four separate occasions. The drugs were administered in one of four solutions: a) a mannitol/electrolyte solution, b) a double-strength mannitol/electrolyte solution, c) a glucose/electrolyte solution and d) water. Lactulose or sulphasalazine were added as oro-caecal transit markers. Lactulose was included in the mannitol- and glucose-based solutions, adding a further non-absorbable osmotic load, and sulphasalazine was added to the water, adding little osmotic load. 3. The absorption of atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide was two- to three-times less from all lactulose-containing solutions than from the sulphasalazine-containing solution. The absorption of frusemide and salicylic acid was similar from all four solutions. 4. The largest non-absorbable osmotic load impaired the absorption of atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide most and the incorporation of glucose only partly restored absorption. 5. These results suggest that transmucosal water movement is an important determinant of atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide absorption but is less relevant for the absorption of frusemide and salicylic acid. Furthermore, these data demonstrate a previously unrecognised interaction between a commonly prescribed laxative-lactulose, and atenolol and hydrochlorothiazide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
