Abstract excerpt
AIMS: 1) To develop an estimate of oral clearance (CL(Px)/F) for the antianginal agent perhexiline based on the ratio of cis-OH-perhexiline metabolite/parent perhexiline plasma concentrations at steady-state (C(OHPx,ss)/C(Px,ss)). 2) To determine whether the ratio measured in the first fortnight of treatment (C(i)(OHPx)/C(i)(Px)) may be used to guide patient dosing with perhexiline, a drug with a narrow...
