Pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of pyridinol carbamate in humans. 1979

J Sassard, and N Bernard, and J Legheand, and G Cuisinaud, and J Traeger

The pharmacokinetics of two pyridinol carbamate formulations were studied after a single oral administration in 10 healthy volunteers. An open one-compartment model described the evolution of plasma concentrations as a function of time. Pyridinol carbamate was rapidly absorbed (mean lag time from 0.36 to 0.38 hr). Its elimination half-life ranged from 3.3 to 7.9 hr. The two formulations were bioequivalent.
