pubmed-article:1740542 | pubmed:abstractText | The potential for a drug-drug interaction between pirmenol, an extensively metabolized antiarrhythmic agent, and cimetidine, an inhibitor of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes, was evaluated in eight healthy adults. A single 150-mg oral dose of pirmenol was administered on study days 1 and 8 and oral cimetidine, 300-mg QID, was administered on study days 4 through 11. Plasma and urine samples were collected after each pirmenol dose for determination of pirmenol concentration. Mean pirmenol concentration-time curves and pharmacokinetic parameters, including elimination rate constant, were not significantly altered by concomitant administration of cimetidine. | lld:pubmed |
