ADME

The partition coefficient and aqueous solubility are properties important for the study of the adsorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADME-Tox) of drugs. The prediction of the ADME-Tox properties of drug candidates has recently attracted much interest because these properties account for the failure of about 60 % of all drug candidates in the clinical phases. The prediction of these properties in an early phase of the drug development process could therefore lead to significant savings in research and development costs.

The 1995 Canadian and United States sugar alcohol (polyol) production is shown in Table 2. The market share of each is also given. Liquids comprise 48% crystalline product comprises 39% and mannitol comprises 13% of the polyol market. An estimate of total U.S. sorbitol capacity for 1995 on a 70% solution basis was 498,000 t. ADM, Decatur, lU., produced 68,200 t Ethichem, Easton, Pa., 13,600 t Lon2a, Mapleton, lU., 45,400 t Roquette America, Gurnee, lU., 68,200 t and SPI Polyols, New Castle, Del., 75,000 t (204). Hoffman-LaRoche, which produces sorbitol for captive usage in the manufacture of Vitamin C (see Vitamins), produced about 27,300 t in 1995. 

The realization of sensitive bioanalytical methods for measuring dmg and metaboUte concentrations in plasma and other biological fluids (see Automatic INSTRUMENTATION BlosENSORs) and the development of biocompatible polymers that can be tailor made with a wide range of predictable physical properties (see Prosthetic and biomedical devices) have revolutionized the development of pharmaceuticals (qv). Such bioanalytical techniques permit the characterization of pharmacokinetics, ie, the fate of a dmg in the plasma and body as a function of time. The pharmacokinetics of a dmg encompass absorption from the physiological site, distribution to the various compartments of the body, metaboHsm (if any), and excretion from the body (ADME). Clearance is the rate of removal of a dmg from the body and is the sum of all rates of clearance including metaboHsm, elimination, and excretion.

St. Clair et. al. investigated a series of maleimide and nadimide terminated polyimides and developed LARC-13 [8,9]. Changing the terminal group from maleimide to nadimide, the value of the lap shear strength of a titanium lap shear joint increased from 7 to 19 MPa [9]. They also added an elastomeric component to the adhesive formulation. The introduction of 15 wt% of a rubbery component, ATBN (amine terminated butadiene nitrile polymer) and ADMS (aniline terminated polydimethyl siloxane) enhanced the adhesive properties as follows 19 MPa to 25 MPa (ATBN) titanium T-peel strength 0.2 kN/m to 1.4... 

Lack of favorable ADME properties (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) can preclude therapeutic use of an otherwise active molecule. The clinical pharmacokinetic parameters of clearance, half-life, volume of distribution, and bioavailability can be used to characterize ADME properties.

Pharmacokinetics refers to activities within the body after a dmg is administered. These activities include absoqrtion, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME). Another pharmacokinetic component is the half-life of the drug. Half-life is a measure of the rate at which drains are removed from the body. 

ORAL ADM IN I STRATI ON. The nurse can administer oral preparations without regard to meals. Tablets can be crushed and mixed with food or fluids if the patient has difficulty swallowing. Do not alternate between the dosage forms (ie, the tablets and the capsules). Dosses are not the same The recommended dosage of the capsules is 80% of the dosage for tablets and elixir. 

ADM INI STERI NG TOCAIN IDE AN D M EXILETIN E Tocainide and mexiletine are administered at 8-hour intervals and with food (or an antacid) to prevent gastrointestinal upset. In addition, administering tocainide with food may offer some protection gainst toxicity because the absoq> tion rate is slowed in the presence of food.
