Effect of Antiorthostatic Hypokinesia on the Pharmacokinetics and Bioavailability of Propranolol

Аннотация

The pharmacokinetics of propranolol were studied in healthy volunteers after a single peroral administration at a dose of 80 mg under normal conditions, on the second day of antiorthostatic hypokinesia, and on the first day after termination of the hypokinesia. The maximum propranolol concentration (–6 ∆%), area under the pharmacokinetic curve (–13 ∆%), elimination half-life (–15 ∆%), mean residence time in the body (–17 ∆%), and distribution volume (–8 ∆%) tended to decrease with antiorthostatic hypokinesia whereas the total clearance (+13 ∆%), ratio of maximum concentrations (125 ± 23%), and relative absorption rate of the drug (158 ± 48%) increased.
