Stability of 5-fluorouracil in whole blood and plasma.
We studied the stability of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in plasma and whole blood kept at room temperature and on ice for 1 to 24 h. At room temperature, there was a steady loss of 94% of the parent drug over 24 h in whole blood and 52% in plasma. In the presence of an excess of uracil, 5-FU was stable for 24 h, suggesting that the loss of 5-FU is the result of enzymatic degradation. 5-FU is more sta...
متن کاملA Stability-Indicating RP-HPLC Assay Method for 5-Fluorouracil
The present study describes the development of a validated RP-HPLC method for the determination of 5-fluorouracil in presence of its degradation products or other pharmaceutical excipients. Stress studies were performed on 5-fluorouracil and it was found that it degrades sufficiently in alkaline conditions, while negligible degradation was observed in acidic, neutral, oxidative and photolytic c...
متن کاملEffect of Skimmed Milk on the Absorption and Metabolism of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in Animals
Several modalities of drug administration have been investigated to improve bioavailability and to reduce 5-FU related toxicity. The aim of present study was to evaluate the effect of skimmed milk on the absorption and metabolism of 5-FU in rabbits, mice and dogs. It was further aimed to determine its route related toxicity in rabbits. Plasma concentration of both 5-FU and its metabolit...
متن کاملToxicity of 5-fluorouracil.
Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a relatively unique drug in oncology because administration in different doses and schedules results in dramatically different patterns of qualitative toxicity. In the 41 years 5-FU has been available to the clinical oncologist, a wide variety of doses and schedules of this agent have been used. Infusional schedules are associated with less myelosuppression but may have m...
متن کاملDisposition of 5-fluorouracil after intravenous bolus doses of a commercial formulation to cancer patients.
A high-pressure liquid chromatographic method that is used to determine the pharmacokinetic disposition of 5-fluorouracil from the plasma compartment is presented. The method requires only 0.5 ml of plasma for each determination and is sensitive to 0.1 mg of drug per liter. Novel methodology with the use of an ion-specific electrode technique for the determination of urinary excretion kinetics ...
