pubmed-article:1743172 | pubmed:abstractText | New methods that will be useful in the study of the pharmacokinetics of both new and established antiepileptic drugs include stable-isotope tracer techniques for studies of absorption, elimination, and drug interactions; the microperfusion technique and the staggered stable-isotope administration technique for the study of distribution; and the correction of trough drug serum concentration values to mean serum concentration values. New pharmacokinetic methods for a study of drugs with new and unique properties include a double stable-isotope technique to deal with the unique pharmacokinetic properties of prodrugs and techniques for describing the biologic half-life of drugs that have a high affinity for active sites. | lld:pubmed |
