KINETICS OF SERUM AMINOSALICYLIC ACID LEVELS.

H ENGBERG-PEDERSEN, P MORCH, L TYBRING

    British Journal of Pharmacology and Chemotherapy
    |August 1, 1964
    PubMed
    Summary

    A mathematical model explains serum levels of p-aminosalicylic acid (PAS) after oral and IV administration. Different PAS preparations show varying blood levels explained by model parameters, with a second-order model needed for high IV doses.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacokinetics
    • Mathematical Modeling
    • Drug Metabolism

    Background:

    • Serum levels of p-aminosalicylic acid (PAS) vary with dosage and preparation.
    • Understanding PAS pharmacokinetics is crucial for effective tuberculosis treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To apply a mathematical model to explain observed serum levels of PAS.
    • To differentiate pharmacokinetic behavior of various PAS preparations.
    • To investigate PAS elimination kinetics under different administration routes and concentrations.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a three-consecutive-first-order reaction mathematical model.
    • Applied the model to existing experimental data from human volunteers.
    • Compared model predictions with experimental serum concentration-time data.

  • Investigated a second-order model for high-concentration intravenous administration.
  • Main Results:

    • The three-reaction model accurately predicted PAS serum levels for oral administration across different preparations.
    • Model parameters explained variations in blood levels between different PAS formulations.
    • The model effectively described elimination after single IV infusions up to 11 mg/100 ml.
    • A second-order model was necessary to fit experimental data at higher IV concentrations.
    • Prolonged treatment with phenyl-p-aminosalicylate showed changes in elimination parameters.

    Conclusions:

    • A three-reaction mathematical model provides a robust framework for understanding PAS pharmacokinetics after oral administration.
    • Pharmacokinetic differences between PAS preparations can be quantitatively explained by model parameter variations.
    • PAS elimination kinetics exhibit dose-dependent behavior, requiring different models for low and high intravenous concentrations.
    • Changes in elimination parameters occur during prolonged treatment with phenyl-p-aminosalicylate.
