摘要
1. The objective of this study was to determine the oral dose pharmacokinetics and metabolism of 4'methylthiopropranolol (MTP) in man and compare the results with observations for propranolol in previous studies. 2. Three women and five men received single oral doses of MTP, dose range 5-320 mg. Plasma concentration of MTP over time were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. MTP metabolites in urine were identified by comparative high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) retention times and mass spectrometry with previously characterized reference compounds and quantified by HPLC. 3. The oral clearance of MTP of 1.2-1.41/min for the 80, 160 and 320 mg doses was about one third of the value previously reported for propranolol. The half-life for MTP (3.3-4.1 h) was, however, similar to that of propranolol. In contrast to propranolol, the peak (2.5 h) plasma concentrations of MTP increased linearly with dose (5-320 mg). 4. The oral clearance for MTP was about 2-fold higher in the men than in the women (P<0.01). In addition, the clearance of the (S)-enantiomer was about 30% higher than that of the (R)-enantiomer (P<0.05), which was a reversal of that seen with propranolol. 5. The metabolism of MTP resulted mainly in sulphur oxidation to sulphoxide and sulphone metabolites. These two metabolites accounted for 75% of the MTP dose. This switching from aromatic carbon oxidation for propranolol to sulphur oxidation for MTP is proposed as the basis of the lower oral clearance of MTP. 6. This study also demonstrated higher plasma binding of MTP (unbound fraction 3.7%) than of propranolol (10.5%; P<0.01), a factor probably contributing to decreased tissue distribution of MTP. © 1990 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
