    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacokinetics and Drug Bioavailability
    • Pharmaceutical Sciences
    • Analytical Chemistry

    Background:

    • Trisulfapyrimidine suspensions are commonly used for their antibacterial properties.
    • Variability in commercial formulations can impact drug efficacy.
    • Standardized methods are needed to ensure consistent drug delivery.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the in vivo bioavailability of seven commercial trisulfapyrimidine suspensions.
    • To assess the in vitro dissolution characteristics of these suspensions.
    • To establish a correlation between in vitro dissolution and in vivo bioavailability for quality control.

    Main Methods:

    • Seven commercial trisulfapyrimidine suspensions were administered to 14 healthy adult male volunteers (1-g dose).

  • Serum drug concentrations (sulfadiazine, sulfamerazine, sulfamethazine) were measured over 48 hours using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).
  • In vitro dissolution testing was performed using the FDA paddle method in hydrochloric acid at 37°C, with samples analyzed by HPLC.
  • Main Results:

    • Significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC) were observed among the seven trisulfapyrimidine suspensions.
    • In vitro dissolution studies revealed variations in the dissolution rates of the commercial preparations.
    • A significant positive correlation was found between an in vivo parameter (Cmax for sulfadiazine) and an in vitro parameter (percent sulfadiazine dissolved in 30 minutes).

    Conclusions:

    • Commercial trisulfapyrimidine suspensions exhibit significant variability in bioavailability.
    • The in vitro dissolution method using the FDA paddle method is a suitable and reliable tool for screening trisulfapyrimidine suspensions.
    • This in vitro method can help ensure consistent drug product quality and predict in vivo performance.
