[Hepatic clearance of aminopyrine in the evaluation of liver function in hormonal contraception].
The function of microsomal destructing medicaments enzyme systems of the liver cell under hormonal contraception was objectified with the help of the aminopyrine test. After the oral administration of 9 mg dimethylaminoantipyrine (DMAAP) per kg body-weight together with 111 kBq 14C-DMAAP the elimination of 14CO2 was measured on the basis of the decrease of the radioactivity in the expiration air (respiration test). The plasma levels of DMAAP and its metabolites were measured, too. The two measurements lasted 5 hours. In contrast to a control group consisting of 8 women with healthy liver who were not ovulostatically treated (half-value time 14CO2-DMAAP 2.9 +/- 0.8 h, plasma 2.2 +/- 0.5 h) in 20 test women with healthy liver under ovulation inhibitors the elimination of 14CO2-DMAAP with 4.7 +/- 1.6 was clearly (alpha less than 0.01), the plasma elimination with 3.0 +/- 0.8 h was slightly retarded (alpha less than 0.05). In 19 patients with histologically ascertained chronic hepatopathies of above all insignificant degree of severity (13 degenerative lesions of liver parenchyma, 3 fatty livers stage I or II, 1 chronic active hepatitis each, chronic persisting hepatitis and cirrhosis) under hormonal contraception a half-value time of the 14CO2 elimination (alpha less than 0.001) prolonged to 5.0 +/- 1.5 h and a prolongation of the plasma elimination to 3.8 +/- (alpha less than 0.05). In 9 women in double examinations the 14CO2 elimination of the DMAAP after discontinuation of the application of ovulation inhibitors was compared with the values obtained under hormonal contraception and a regression of the retarded excretion in the expiration air (4.2 +/- 2.3 less than 5.1 +/- 1.2 h) and plasma (2.6 +/- 0.7 less than 3.4 +/- 1.7) was proved.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
