The pharmacokinetics of dexketoprofen trometamol were evaluated in two studies using healthy volunteers. In the first study, the relative bioavailability of a single oral capsule of dexketoprofen free acid 25 mg or dexketoprofen trometamol 25 mg (given as 37 mg of the trometamol salt) was compared to ketoprofen 50 mg in 18 healthy volunteers. In the second study, the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of oral dexketoprofen trometamol in tablet form were evaluated after either a single 25 mg dose (24 volunteers) or a repeated dose of 25 mg twice daily for 7 days (12 volunteers). The absorption of dexketoprofen from dexketoprofen trometamol capsules was bioequivalent to that of ketoprofen. On the other hand, the extent of absorption of dexketoprofen free acid was significantly lower than that for ketoprofen. Dexketoprofen trometamol showed the most rapid absorption rate, with highest Cmax and shortest t(max) values, whereas dexketoprofen free acid had the slowest absorption rate, and ketoprofen had an intermediate absorption rate. After repeated-dose administration of dexketoprofen trometamol, the pharmacokinetic parameters were similar to those obtained after single doses, indicating that no drug accumulation occurred. Dexketoprofen trometamol was well tolerated, with no clinically relevant adverse events reported.
