The pharmacokinetics and intragastric pH effects of a novel nizatidine controlled-release (CR) formulation were compared to a currently marketed immediate-release (IR) nizatidine formulation (Axid). The bimodal pulsatile release characteristics of nizatidine CR decreased its Cmax by approximately 42% compared to nizatidine IR while maintaining 90% relative bioavailability; tmax was approximately 1.6 times longer with the CR formulation. These characteristics enabled controlled-release nizatidine to sustain effective plasma drug concentrations for a greater duration than immediate-release nizatidine over the dosing intervals. In multiple doses, the 24-hour AUC ratio for all comparisons of nizatidine CR 150 mg bid, nizatidine CR 300 mg daily, and nizatidine IR 150 mg bid was between 97% and 99%. Mean pH AUC values for nizatidine CR 150 mg bid and nizatidine IR 150 mg bid were similar overall during the 0- to 14-hour and 14- to 24-hour dosing intervals. For the 14- to 24-hour dosing interval, nizatidine CR 150 mg maintained gastric pH over 3.0 and 4.0 for 42% and 27% of the time compared to 39% and 23% for nizatidine IR, respectively. Nizatidine CR 300 mg, compared to the 150-mg CR and IR regimens, had a greater effect on increasing evening intragastric pH, thus providing support for the potential utility of nizatidine CR 300 mg dosed at night in alleviating nocturnal symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
