Possible protein binding displacement interaction between glibenclamide and metolazone

Abstract: The effects of metolazone on the protein binding of glibenclamide were studied. It was found that increasing metolazone concentrations up to 100 ng/ml had no significant effect on the protein binding of glibenclamide studied at 10 micrograms/ml. Metolazone is unlikely to cause a clinically significant increase in the free fraction of glibenclamide in patients receiving both drugs.

“…The current dose of 5 mg/kg for rats of a mean body mass of 366 g equates to a blood concentration of ϳ140 mol/l. Given that 98 -99% of GLI is bound to plasma protein, the effective blood concentration of GLI is ϳ2-3 mol/l (19), which is in the range for GLI to be selective for K ATP channels without possible inhibition of Ca ϩ channel current (41). This dosing strategy, based on SMC investigations, has been shown to elicit a degree of KATP channel blockade for swine in vivo (60 -70%) (16).…”

“…In 30-kg pigs, this dose corresponds to 90 mg in ϳ2 liters of circulating blood volume, i.e., 90 mol/l (M w ϭ 494). However, 98-99% of glibenclamide is bound to plasma proteins (12), so that the concentration of free glibenclamide is in the range of 1-2 M. These concentrations are well within the range where glibenclamide is selective for K ATP ϩ channels (2,26). Moreover, we observed that glibenclamide attenuated the bimakalim-mediated vasodilation without blunting the sodium nitroprusside-mediated vasodilation, indicating that glibenclamide in a dose of 3 mg/kg iv selectively inhibited K ATP ϩ channels without nonspecifically blunting vascular smooth muscle relaxation.…”
