Abstract:Effects of co-administration of cimetidine(CMT) on pharmacokinetic behaviors of chlorpropamide(CPA),an oral hypoglycemic agent,after intravenous injection,were investigated in rabbits.The co-administration of CMT enhanced the plasma concentration of CPA,and reduced the amount of cumulative urinary excretion of CPA after intravenous bolus injection.Furthermore,the co-administration of CMT was found to decrease the renal clearance of CPA significantly,but to have no effect on its extrarenal clearance.These clear… Show more
