title: Pharmacokinetics of a new histamine H2-receptor antagonist, Z-300, in rat and dog.
abstract: 1. The plasma level of Z-300 reached a maximum (Cmax) at 30 min after the oral administration of Z-300 to dog, and disappeared from the systemic circulation with a half-life of 8-9 h. The bioavailability of Z-300 was 52% after the oral administration of Z-300, 3 mg/kg. At doses ranging from 3 to 30 mg/kg, Cmax and AUC (area under the plasma concentration-time curve) were proportional to the dose. 2. The plasma level of Z-300 reached Cmax at 10 min after the oral administration of Z-300 to rat, and disappeared from the systemic circulation with a half-life of 0.8-1.6 h. The bioavailability of Z-300 was 39% after the oral administration of Z-300, 10 mg/kg, and there was a non-linear relationship between the plasma level-time profile of Z-300 and the administered dose (3-50 mg/kg). 3. The binding of Z-300 to plasma protein was 92% in man, 65% in dog and 25% in rat. It is suggested that these species differences were due to the content of alpha1-acid glycoprotein (alpha1-AG), because Z-300 bound more strongly to alpha1-AG than to albumin.
