title: Hemodialysis removal of propafenone.
abstract: Propafenone kinetics were studied after intravenous and oral dosing in a patient with end-stage renal disease. Hemodialysis was performed within 10 hours of dosing in order to assess its effects. After intravenous administration of 70 mg propafenone, total-body clearance was 10.5 ml/min/kg before and 10.4 ml/min/kg during hemodialysis. After a single oral dose of 300 mg, clearance was 19.4 ml/min/kg before and 18.9 ml/min/kg during hemodialysis. Bioavailability was 48%.
