Abstract: | Summary The pharmacokinetics of the antikaliuretic amiloride has been studied in healthy controls and in patients with chronic renal failure or hepatitis. It was 40% bound to protein.In healthy volunteers 49% of an oral dose was recovered unchanged in the urine. The renal clearance of amiloride was about 3 times the creatinine clearance, which means that it was predominantly excreted via tubular secretion.Renal impairment reduced the clearance of amiloride, causing a prolongation of the t1/2 and drug accumulation in plasma. In hepatitis the t1/2 of amiloride was prolonged and the AUC increased. Urinary recovery (Ae) of amiloride was greater in hepatitis patients than in controls. |
