Background and ObjectiveHair is an attractive matrix for amphetamine drug testing; however, little is known about the rate at which amphetamines are deposited into hair. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of oral dextroamphetamine in plasma and quantify the rate of deposition into hair in healthy adults using a linked population pharmacokinetic model.MethodsHealthy adults >18 years of age received dextroamphetamine 10 mg orally for 7 days. Plasma samples were collected over 48 h following the final dose, and hair was collected 5 weeks following the first dose. NONMEM 7.2 was used to estimate dextroamphetamine oral absorption rate constant, apparent clearance and volume of distribution of the plasma compartment, the plasma to hair incorporation rate constant, and the apparent volume of distribution in the hair compartment.ResultsDextroamphetamine pharmacokinetics were well-described by a one-compartment model with combined additive and proportional error for the plasma compartment, which was linked to a single compartment for the hair. Apparent clearance and volume of distribution in the plasma compartment were scaled by current body weight (centered on the mean). Melanin hair concentration was included as a significant covariate on the hair compartment. Absorption rate constant, clearance, and volume of distribution for the plasma compartment were estimated as 0.527 h−1(95 % CI 0.467–0.586), 28.7 L/h (95 % CI 27.1–30.3), and 377 L (95 % CI 326–428), respectively. The incorporation rate constant from plasma to hair was 1.60e−6h−1(95 % CI 1.06e−6–2.14e−6) and apparent volume of distribution in hair was 17.7 mg (95 % CI 12.5–22.8).ConclusionsA one-compartment plasma model linked to a single compartment for hair successfully described the pharmacokinetics of dextroamphetamine in healthy adults. The volume of distribution and clearance of dextroamphetamine increased with weight, and the volume of distribution of the hair compartment increased with greater melanin concentrations.
