โฆ Synopsis
Sixteen healthy men received iohexol intravenously at a concentration of 346 mg of iodine/mL. Doses of 500, 750, 1000, and 1500 mg of iodine/kg of body weight were administered to four volunteers each. Neither clearance nor percent of dose excreted in the urine showed any significant correlation with size of the dose. The overall mean (+/- SD) renal and total body clearances were 120 +/- 18.6 and 131 +/- 18.6 mL/min, respectively. The overall mean apparent volume of distribution was 165 (+/- 30.7) mL/kg. Urine contained 92.3 +/- 4.4% of the dose. Most of the drug (89.9%) was excreted within the first 12 h. An open three-compartment body model gave the best fit to the experimental data. The mean apparent first-order terminal elimination (gamma-phase) half-life was 12.6 h.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of midaglizole, a new orally effective hypoglycaemic agent, in healthy male subjects. In Study I, volunteers were given single oral doses of 150, 200, 300, and 500 mg of midaglizole 20 min before breakfast. In Study 11, 200 mg of midag
