title: Pharmacokinetics of stobadin and of the sum of its metabolites in rats during repeated administration.
abstract: Stobadin dihydrochloride was administered p.o. to rats at a dose of 1 mg kg-1 once daily for 25 consecutive days. The peak and trough concentrations of the sum of stobadin metabolites, determined from Days 6-16 of treatment, demonstrated a steady-state. The mean daily excretion of 3H-radioactivity during this period was 43 per cent and 52 per cent of the administered dose into urine and faeces, respectively. The terminal half-life of stobadin in plasma following a 25-day chronic treatment was 78.3 min, which was shorter than the value of 95.3 min, determined in a single dose experiment. The data indicate that no accumulation of stobadin and of its labelled metabolites occurs in the course of repeated administration of 3H-stobadin.
