| Popis: | 1. The disposition and pharmacokinetics of bepridil (Bp) were studied in mouse, rat, rabbit, rhesus monkey, and man. Bp was essentially completely absorbed by all species. 2. Maximum plasma Bp concentrations were achieved within 2 h of drug administration. Linear but non-proportional, dose-related increases in the area under the curve (AUC) for plasma Bp vs. time were noted after increasing oral doses of Bp.HCl to rats (30-300 mg/kg) and monkeys (25-200 mg/kg). 3. Daily administration of Bp.HCl to rats (100 mg/kg per day for 15 days) and monkeys (200 mg/kg per day for 13 days) produced no statistically significant changes in Bp pharmacokinetic parameters. 4. Oral plasma clearance (CLp) of Bp was very low in man (ca. 0.93 l/h per kg) compared to experimental animals (14.8-63.8 l/h per kg). Terminal elimination half-lives were 1.5-2.0 h for mouse and rat, ca. 4.4 h for monkey and ca. 48 h for man. 5. Bp and a total of 12 metabolites were identified and quantified. Metabolite formation in the five species was adequately described by four interrelated pathways, namely, aromatic hydroxylation, followed by N-dealkylation, N-debenzylation, and N-acetylation. Metabolites produced by this pathway included 4-hydroxy-Bp, N-benzyl-4-aminophenol, 4-aminophenol, and N-acetyl-4-aminophenol. Comparison of the proposed pathways revealed qualitative similarity among species. |
