“…The addition of Tween 80, previously reported to enhance the absorption of spironolactone (Gantt, Gochman, and Dymiewicz, 1961), has now been retracted (Gantt, et al, 1962) as it appears that whilst encapsulating spironolactone with Tween 80 the small particle size was preserved and this was responsible for the improved absorption rather than the addition of the detergent itself. The four-hour plasma level of spironolactone metabolite represents the peak concentration following oral administration of the drug (Gantt, Gochman, and Dyniewicz, 1961). The higher plasma values found in patients requiring larger doses of spironolactone (whichever preparation was used) suggests that poor absorption of the drug was not the principal cause of the need for the higher dosages.…”
