چکیده

A cross over single and multiple dose study was carried out to find out pharmacokinetic interactions between diphynylhydantoin (DPH) (35 mg/kg, p.o.) and antihypertensives enalapril (1.6 mg/kg; p.o.) and amlodipine (0.4 mg/kg, p.o.) in rhesus monkeys. Neither the plasma concentrations nor the pharmacokinetic parameters of DPH were altered by coadministration of enalapril or amlodipine, suggesting that enalapril and amlodipine can be safely administered to epileptic patients receiving phenytoin.

Radiosynthesis of 11C-phenytoin Using a DEGDEE Solvent for Clinical PET Studies

Objective(s): Phenytoin is an antiepileptic drug that is used worldwide. The whole-body pharmacokinetics of this drug have been extensively studied using 11C-phenytoin in small animals. However, because of the limited production amounts that are presently available, clinical 11C-phenytoin PET studies to examine the pharmacokinetics of phenytoin in humans have not yet been performed. We aimed to...
