Interaction of allopurinol with phenprocoumon in man.
Conditions in two patients on long-term phenprocoumon (Marcumar®) treatment are reported who had signs of phenprocoumon overdosage when given simultaneously allopurinol. The determination of phenprocoumon plasma concentrations in one patient showed that phenprocoumon accumulates for several weeks during treatment with allopurinol. Signs of phenprocoumon overdosage thus can appear long time after starting allopurinol treatment.
Die Bedeutung der Bindung von Pharmaka an Albumin und Erythrocyten eines Perfusionsmediums der isolierten Rattenleber
The binding of lipophilic drugs to albumin and erythrocytes and its importance for the uptake of the drugs into the isolated rat liver were investigated. Promazine and chlorpromazine were taken as lipophilic drugs, which were compared in some experiments with 3,3′-dimethyl-4,4′-diacetyldiphenylbisguanylhydrazone (BG 60), a much more hydrophilic drug.
Standard graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with or without anti-T-cell globulin in haematopoietic cell transplantation from matched unrelated donors: a randomised, open-label, multicentre phase 3 trial.
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation from unrelated donors. Anti-T-cell globulins (ATGs) might lower the incidence of GVHD. We did a prospective, randomised, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 trial to compare standard GVHD prophylaxis with ciclosporin and methotrexate with or without anti-Jurkat ATG-Fresenius (ATG-F).Between May 26, 2003, and Feb 8, 2007, 202 patients with haematological malignancies were centrally randomly assigned using computer-generated centre-stratified block randomisation between treatment groups receiving ciclosporin and methotrexate with or without additional ATG-F.
