Plasma protein binding interactions elimination half-life

Oral lacosamide is rapidly and completely absorbed in adults, with no food effect. Bioavailability is nearly 100%. The plasma concentrations are proportional up to 800 mg orally. Peak concentrations occur from 1 to 4 hours after oral dosing, with an elimination half-life of 13 hours. There are no active metabolites and protein binding is minimal. Lacosamide does not induce or inhibit cytochrome P450 isoenzymes, so drug interactions are negligible. 

Sitaxsentan is a potent and selective agent which inhibits ET-1 binding to ETA receptors (IC50 = 1.4 nM), while being essentially inactive at ETB receptors (IC50 = 9.8 pM).23 In the clinic, it was found to have excellent oral bioavailability (70-100%) and a terminal elimination half-life of 10 h, and is administered as a once daily 100 mg dose. It is highly protein bound in plasma (> 99%) and extensively metabolized in the liver to inactive metabolites, predominantly by CYPs 2C9 and 3A4. Excretion is 50 60% renal, with the balance in the feces.25 Sitaxsentan inhibits CYP 2C9, and was observed to increase exposure to warfarin by over twofold. The use of cyclosporine A is also contraindicated, but no interactions were observed with sildenafil.15 Sitaxsentan was well tolerated in trials, with only minor side effects reported. Reversible liver enzyme abnormalities were also observed, but less frequently than with bosentan.15 25...
