✦ Synopsis


It is shown that the Wagner-Nelson absorption method provides zero-order input rate constants exactly, or with small error, in a large number of cases where the twocompartment open disposition model applies. Factors affecting the accuracy of the method were studied with error-free simulated data. The method was applied to real data for three drugs. With ethanol infused over 2 h in eight human trials the estimated rate constant averaged 99.6 per cent of the known rate constant with a coefficient of variation of 6.86 per cent. With pindolol infused over 3 h in five human subjects the estimated rate constant averaged 98.7 per cent of the known rate constant with a coefficient of variation of 22.5 per cent. With theophylline administered orally in a sustained-release form to seven human subjects the Wagner-Nelson method provided estimated zero-order rate constants which averaged 95.8 per cent of those estimated by an exact two-compartment absorption equation with a coefficient of variation of 38.1 per cent (in this case bolus intravenous data were available for the same subjects).

Some authors have used an elimination rate constant derived from one theophylline treatment (e.g. the elixir) to apply the Wagner-Nelson method to concentration-time data from another treatment (e.g. a sustained-release form). Since there is considerable intrasubject variation in the elimination rat

A calculator program that performs a nonlinear least-squares fit to data conforming to the one-compartment model with zero-order input is described. The program, which is designed for the Hewlett-Packard HP-41 CV calculator, is based on the Gauss-Newton iterative algorithm as modified by Hartley. A

The objective of this work was to develop a simple residual method to estimate the rate constant for actual or apparent zero-order absorption into a one-compartment model. The method is based on the fact that, in theory, a plot of residuals versus e 7Kt is linear for a zero-order absorption process,
