Pharmacokinetic studies on quinacrine following intrauterine administration to cynomolgus monkeys. 1982

Recent efforts have been made to develop a chemical oviductal occluding agent. Intrauterine quinacrine has been used in certain areas of the world with moderate success in effected tubal closure. This report presents the pharmacokinetics of a quinacrine solution (30 mg) as administered to cynomolgus monkeys via the intrauterine route, compared with intravascular injection. The data show rapid transfer of the drug from the uterine to the vascular compartment and uptake by almost all tissues examined. Although plasma concentrations disappear within 24 hours, levels can be detected in most tissues for at least 1 week following intrauterine injection. After 28 days, however, tissue levels of the drug are absent or near the limit of detection.

D011796 Quinacrine An acridine derivative formerly widely used as an antimalarial but superseded by chloroquine in recent years. It has also been used as an anthelmintic and in the treatment of giardiasis and malignant effusions. It is used in cell biological experiments as an inhibitor of phospholipase A2.
