The objective and timing of drug disposition studies, appendix II. Plasma concentrations of oxyphenbutazone in dogs given oxyphenbutazone or the calcium or sodium salts of its phosphate ester.

Plasma levels of oxyphenbutazone were measured in beagle dogs following oral administration of oxyphenbutazone and salts of oxyphenbutazone phosphate. Dosage with sodium and calcium salts of oxyphenbutazone phosphate produced higher oxyphenbutazone plasma levels than dosage with oxyphenbutazone itself. Oxyphenbutazone phosphate was not detected in plasma following oral dosing with salts of oxyphenbutazone phosphate but was found in plasma following intramuscular administration of oxyphenbutazone phosphate sodium salt. A metabolite, oxyphenbutazone glucuronide, was found in plasma of dogs following administration of either oxyphenbutazone or salts of oxyphenbutazone phosphate.

[Treatment of typhoid fever with chloramphenicol or ampicillin combined with oxyphenbutazone].

Ninety-four patients with typhoid fever were treated, at random, with three therapeutic regimens: chloramphenicol alone, chloramphenicol plus oxyphenbutazone, and ampicillin plus oxyphenbutazone. The results are evaluated analyzing the body temperature graph and by serial blood had bone marrow cultures taken at intervals until they became negative. Bacteriologic diagnosis was confirmed by blood culture (39.3%) and/or bone marrow culture (77%). The mean duration of fever was 3.3 days for the group treated with chloramphenicol-oxyphenbutazone, 4.3 for those with chloramphenicol alone and 5 days for the group ampicillin-oxyphenbutazone; at the same time, blood cultures became negative at 4.4, 5.5 and 4.4 days respectively. Negativization of bone marrow cultures was not influenced by the addition of oxyphenbutazone. It is concluded that the influence of oxyphenbutazone in shortening the febrile period or in the negativization of blood cultures is not significant. It is considered that oxyphenbutazone is not an important therapeutic tool in this group of diseases.

Effects of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone on basic drug detection in high performance thin layer chromatographic systems.

Interference or 'masking' in thin layer chromatography occurs when the presence of one drug on a thin layer plate physically obscures or interferes with the detection of another drug. We investigated the ability of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone to mask or interfere with the detection by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) of basic drugs used illegally in horse racing. Of fifty-five basic drugs called 'positive' since 1981 by laboratories affiliated with the Association of Official Racing Chemists (AORC), forty did not comigrate with phenylbutazone or oxyphenbutazone and could not, therefore, be masked. When 75 micrograms/ml of oxyphenbutazone was spiked into urine samples, subjected to an extraction procedure for basic drugs, and then run in our routine HPTLC systems, no 'spots' due to oxyphenbutazone appeared. 'Masking' by oxyphenbutazone, therefore, did not and could not occur in our test systems. When phenylbutazone at a concentration of 30 micrograms/ml was spiked into urine samples and run in the routine HPTLC system, phenylbutazone spots were visible under ultraviolet light and after certain specific oversprays were used to visualize basic drugs. These spots, however, did not interfere with routine thin layer testing for basic drugs. It was concluded that phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone had no significant ability to interfere with detection of the parent forms of these basic drugs under the conditions described in these experiments.

Diffusion of oxyphenbutazone into synovial fluid, synovial tissue, joint cartilage and cerebrospinal fluid.

The diffusion of oxyphenbutazone into synovial and cerebrospinal fluids and synovium and joint cartilage was investigated in 25 patients receiving short-term treatment. In the synovial fluid, the mean oxyphenbutazone concentration, was 57.1 +/- 13.4% of the plasma level, due to its excellent diffusion into the joint cavity. In synovial tissue, the oxyphenbutazone level was higher in patients with severe inflammation than in those with no or little inflammation. Penetration into joint cartilage is less than into synovial tissue. In cerebrospinal fluid the concentration was close to the level of free plasma oxyphenbutazone. The findings show increased diffusion of oxyphenbutazone towards its site of action in inflammation.

Bilateral surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molar teeth as a model for drug evaluation: a test with oxyphenbutazone (Tanderil).

Twenty-four healthy patients undergoing two separate operations for removal of an impacted third molar from one or the other side of the mandible, were included in a double-blind crossover study. On the two occasions either oxyphenbutazone (Tanderil) or placebo was given for 5 days, commencing on the day before surgery. Plasma analyses confirmed drug intake. A number of objective and subjective assessments were recorded for a paired comparison of the postoperative course, including swelling, trismus, local temperature and pain. On the 1st, 3rd and 5th postoperative days after the oxyphenbutazone-operation, the measured swelling averaged 86, 85 and 83%, respectively, of that after the placebo-operation; the corresponding P-values were less than or equal to 0.11, 0.03 and 0.06. Oxyphenbutazone did not significantly reduce the local hyperpyrexia. It exerted, however, an excellent pain relief, which may have contributed to less trismus and patient preference for the course with this drug. The results obtained with this model in humans showed considerable discrepancies with the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects ascribed to oxyphenbutazone from results in animal models. Side effects were mild and infrequent, and no unfavorable effects on bleeding or wound healing were noted. Routine use of oxyphenbutazone in oral surgery, however, is not recommended.

Reactions of oxyphenbutazone with active oxygen species.

The ability of Oxyphenbutazone (a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug) to react with singlet oxygen and superoxide anions, possible mediators of the damage to the lipids of the cell membranes during inflammation was studied. Oxyphenbutazone inhibited the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium in aerobic riboflavin-photosensitized oxidation of methionine, but did not influence the cytochrome C-reduction by superoxide-generating system xanthine-xanthine oxidase. Oxyphenbutazone was photooxidized in the presence of Rose Bengal, the latter being a photosensitizer. The increase of the reaction rate of Oxyphenbutazone-oxidation in D2O as compared to H2O, as well as the inhibition of oxidation by singlet oxygen-quencher sodium azide confirmed the participation of singlet oxygen in this process. It was found that Oxyphenbutazone reacted with singlet oxygen, but did not react with superoxide anions. This was supported by the observed protection of erythrocyte membranes from the hemolytic action of the singlet oxygen-generating system Rose Bengal + light.

[Comparative double-blind study of Bi-Profenid and oxyphenbutazone in sports pathology].

Effectiveness and tolerance of ketoprofen in sustained-release tablets (Bi-Profenid 150 mg) were investigated in a double blind trial in 44 athletes who had recently sprained an ankle. Patients were given either 300 mg Bi-Profenid or 400 mg oxyphenbutazone daily for seven days. Treatment regimens were assigned at random. Results were assessed as excellent or good in 85% of patients given Bi-Profenid and 50% of those given oxyphenbutazone. Spontaneous pain resolved in 19 patients receiving Bi-Profenid and in 6 under oxyphenbutazone. Decrease in pain upon physical examination and in articular circumference was significantly greater with Bi-Profenid as compared with oxyphenbutazone. The chance of rapidly resuming sport was better with Bi-Profenid. Tolerance was excellent in 68.2% of patients with Bi-Profenid and 59% of those with oxyphenbutazone. This investigation thus emphasizes the value of Bi-Profenid in sport pathology.

Comparative pharmacokinetics of phenylbutazone and its metabolite oxyphenbutazone in clinically normal horses and donkeys.

OBJECTIVE: To compare plasma disposition of phenylbutazone and its metabolite oxyphenbutazone after i.v. administration of phenylbutazone in horses and donkeys. ANIMALS: 4 clinically normal horses and 6 clinically normal donkeys. PROCEDURE: Blood samples were collected from each animal at time 0 (before) and 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, and 480 minutes after i.v. administration of a bolus dose of phenylbutazone. Serum was analyzed in triplicate by use of high-performance liquid chromatography for determination of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone concentrations. The serum concentration-time curve for each horse and donkey was analyzed separately to estimate model-independent pharmacokinetic variables. RESULTS: Significant differences were found in several pharmacokinetic variables of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in horses, compared with donkeys. Mean total body clearance of phenylbutazone in horses was fivefold less than that in donkeys (29.3 and 170.3 ml/kg/h, respectively). Mean values for area under the curve and mean residence time in horses (118.3 micrograms/h/ml and 3.6 hours, respectively) were significantly greater than values in donkeys (28.3 micrograms/h/ml and 1.7 hours, respectively). Mean values for apparent volume of distribution at steady state were not significantly different between horses and donkeys. For oxyphenbutazone, mean time to peak concentration in donkeys was significantly less than that in horses (1.6 and 6.4 hours, respectively). CONCLUSION: Phenylbutazone clearance in donkeys was higher than that in horses, and appearance of the metabolite oxyphenbutazone in serum was more rapid in donkeys than in horses, indicating that hepatic metabolism of phenylbutazone is more rapid in donkeys than in horses. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Because serum concentration of phenylbutazone after single i.v. bolus administration (4.4 mg/kg of body weight) decreases more rapidly in donkeys, compared with horses, phenylbutazone may require more frequent administration in donkeys to achieve therapeutic efficacy.

Mechanisms of inhibition of tolbutamide metabolism: phenylbutazone, oxyphenbutazone, sulfaphenazole.

Tolbutamide half-life was increased by chronic administration of sulfaphenazole (9.5 hr to 28.6 hr, n = 2), phenylbutazone (7.9 hr to 23.1 hr, n = 8), and oxyphenbutazone (8.1 hr to 30.2 hr, n = 2). The rate of elimination of tolbutamide was decreased within 1 to 2 hr of a single dose of sulfaphenazole and the tolbutamide half-life was increased from 9.2 hr to 25.7 hr (n = 2). In contrast, phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone, administered as single oral doses of 800 mg, had no immediate effect on tolbutamide elimination. At times greater than 20 to 30 hr after the single dose of phenylbutazone or oxyphenbutazone the rate of tolbutamide elimination was decreased. It is suggested that phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone act by inducing form of cytochrome P-450 with low activity for tolbutamide hydroxylation, whereas sulfaphenazole acts by direct inhibition of the microsomal mixed function oxidase system.

Effects of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone on acidic drug detection in high performance thin layer chromatographic systems.

Interference or "masking" in thin layer chromatography occurs when the presence of one drug on a thin layer plate physically obscures or interferes with the detection of another drug. We investigated the ability of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone to mask or interfere with the detection of acidic drugs of high performance thin layer chromatography. Of 20 acidic drugs called "positive" since 1981 by laboratories affiliated with the Association of Official Racing Chemists, 16 did not comigrate with phenylbutazone or oxyphenbutazone and could not, therefore, be masked by these agents. Three medications (diclofenac, fenoprofen, ibuprofen) were potentially masked by phenylbutazone and one (sulindac) was potentially masked by oxyphenbutazone. These agents were therefore administered to horses to determine whether or not their metabolites would allow their detection. In each case, metabolites of these agents were detectable for at least 24 hr after drug administration and detection was not interfered with by phenylbutazone or oxyphenbutazone. These results suggest that these 20 acidic drugs should be readily detectable in postrace urines of horses in the presence of phenylbutazone either as the parent drug or by virtue of the easily distinguishable metabolites that each agent possesses. There is, therefore, no reason to believe that the agents tested in this study can be effectively masked or interfered with by phenylbutazone or its metabolites in equine urine.

Determination of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in plasma and urine samples of horses by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

A method is described for the qualitative and quantitative determination of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in horse urine and plasma samples viewing antidoping control. A horse was administered intravenously with 3 g of phenylbutazone. For the qualitative determination, a screening by HPLC was performed after acidic extraction of the urine samples and the confirmation process was realized by GC-MS. Using the proposed method it was possible to detect phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in urine for up to 48 and 120 h, respectively. For the quantitation of these drugs the plasma was deproteinized with acetonitrile and 20 microliters were injected directly into the HPLC system equipped with a UV detector and LiChrospher RP-18 column. The mobile phase used was 0.01 M acetic acid in methanol (45:55, v/v). The limit of detection was 0.5 microgram/ml for phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone and the limit of quantitation was 1.0 microgram/ml for both drugs. Using the proposed method it was possible to quantify phenylbutazone up to 30 h and oxyphenbutazone up to 39 h after administration.

Quantitative determination of plasma oxyphenbutazone by gas-liquid chromatography with selective nitrogen detection.

A sensitive and specific gas chromatographic method, using the nitrogen-phosphorus detector for the detection and determination of oxyphenbutazone extracted from plasma is described. The method involves extraction and back-extraction steps followed by derivatization of both oxyphenbutazone and the internal standard with trifluoroacetic anhydride. The procedure permits the rapid and specific routine determination of oxyphenbutazone in plasma with a detection limit of 0.5 microgram/ml. The procedure is linear over the range of concentrations encountered after administration of a single oral therapeutic dose. No interference from the biological matrix is apparent. The suitability of the method for the analysis of biological samples was tested by studying the variation with time of oxyphenbutazone plasma concentrations in normal human volunteers over a period of several biological half-lives.

Phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone distribution into tissue fluids in the horse.

The clinically recommended dose rate of phenylbutazone (4.4 mg/kg) was administered intravenously as a single dose to five Welsh Mountain ponies. Distribution of phenylbutazone and its active metabolite oxyphenbutazone into body fluids was studied by measuring concentrations in plasma, tissue-cage fluid, peritoneal fluid and acute inflammatory exudate harvested from a polyester sponge model of inflammation. The ready penetration of phenylbutazone into inflammatory exudate was demonstrated by the relatively high mean value for Cmax of 12.4 micrograms/ml occurring at a time of 4.6 h and a mean AUC0-24 of 128 microgram X h/ml. A high mean exudate:plasma AUC0-24 ratio of 0.83 was recorded. Plasma:exudate concentration ratios for phenylbutazone were initially greater than and subsequently less than one; the slower clearance from exudate was indicated by approximate t1/2 beta) values of 4.8 and 24 h for plasma and exudate, respectively. These findings may help to explain the relatively long duration of action of phenylbutazone, in spite of a plasma elimination half-life of less than 5 h. Lower values of Cmax and AUC0-24 for phenylbutazone passage into peritoneal fluid (6.3 micrograms/ml and 45 micrograms X h/ml) were recorded, and a limited number of sampling times indicated a similar degree of penetration as into tissue cage fluid. Mean concentrations of oxyphenbutazone in all fluids were lower than phenylbutazone concentrations at all times, but ready penetration of the metabolite into body fluids, especially into inflammatory exudate, occurred suggesting that oxyphenbutazone may contribute to the anti-inflammatory effect. The hyperaemia of acute inflammation and the high protein levels in inflammatory exudate may both assist passage of phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone into exudate.

Study of fatal bone marrow depression with special reference to phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone.

The histories of 269 patients whose death certificates did not mention a drug as the cause of aplastic anaemia or agranulocytosis were investigated. Eighty-three deaths were probably caused by drugs, the most common cause of aplastic anaemia being treatment with phenylbutazone (28 deaths) and oxyphenbutazone (11 deaths). Thirteen out of 17 deaths from agranulocytosis were attributed to co-trimoxazole treatment. A separate survey of general practitioners' prescriptions enabled the mortality to be estimated. With the addition of one death due to oxyphenbutazone and four deaths due to phenylbutazone that were reported independently to the committee, the mortality from oxyphenbutazone was 3-8 per 100 000 and from phenylbutazone 2-2 per 100 000. With phenylbutazone the rates varied from under 1 death per 100 000 for men aged under 65 years to 6 per 100 000 for women aged 65 and over. Small numbers precluded estimates for oxyphenbutazone in these subgroups, although a similar trend was suggested. No particular indication for treatment seems to carry a higher risk, the main concern being the use of these two drugs in elderly patients.

Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies on phenylbutazone and oxyphenbutazone in goats.

Phenylbutazone was administered intravenously and orally to six goats as a single dose of 4.4 mg/kg and its disposition and bioavailability and the disposition of its active metabolite, oxyphenbutazone, in plasma were investigated. The effect of the administration of the drug of oxyphenbutazone on ex vivo serum thromboxane (TX)B2 generation in platelets was also studied. Phenylbutazone was eliminated slowly with mean (se) elimination half-lives (t1/2 beta) of 15.3 (1.15) hours and 22.0 (3.32) hours after intravenous and oral administration, respectively. The bioavailability of phenylbutazone paste administered orally was 61 (7) per cent (corrected by the t1/2 beta) and relatively slow absorption was observed, as indicated by a time of maximum drug concentration (tmax) of 3.47 (0.39) hours and a mean absorption time (MAT) of 10.4 (8.61) hours. The concentration of oxyphenbutazone in plasma was low and the ratio of the areas under the curve (AUC) of oxyphenbutazone to phenylbutazone was approximately 0.02:1 after both intravenous and oral administration. Thromboxane B2 generation in the platelets was significantly inhibited (P < 0.05) from one to 12 hours after intravenous administration and from two to 12 hours after oral administration. The results suggest that phenylbutazone is a potentially useful non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug for use in goats by either route of administration.
