Medical Department, Puropharma, Milan-Italy.

The percutaneous absorption of oxatomide gel at 5 per cent concentration was studied after single and repeated administration (85 mg b.i.d.) in six male and six female healthy volunteers, aged 25.7 +/- 0.8 years (mean +/- SEM) weighing 64.4 +/- 4.5 kg and the results compared with those obtained following a single oral dose (30 mg). The measurement of oxatomide was by means of a new sensitive and specific HPLC assay with limits of detection of 0.2 ng ml-1 in plasma and 1.0 ng ml-1 in urine. Poor percutaneous absorption was confirmed by the peak plasma concentrations which were 5.03 +/- 0.79 ng ml-1 following application of the gel for 7 days and 10.08 +/- 1.29 ng ml-1 following oral administration; the corresponding amounts of unchanged oxatomide recovered from 24 h urine collections were 1.42 +/- 0.39 micrograms and 3.93 +/- 0.92 micrograms.

D006634 Histamine H1 Antagonists Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H1 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of endogenous histamine. Included here are the classical antihistaminics that antagonize or prevent the action of histamine mainly in immediate hypersensitivity. They act in the bronchi, capillaries, and some other smooth muscles, and are used to prevent or allay motion sickness, seasonal rhinitis, and allergic dermatitis and to induce somnolence. The effects of blocking central nervous system H1 receptors are not as well understood.
