The kinetics of the norepinephrine uptake inhibitor maprotiline were evaluated in 6 normal volunteers following rapid i.v. administration of 75 mg. Blood levels could be resolved using a biexponential equation. Mean estimates of half-life, volume of distribution and systemic clearance were 40 .+-. 15 h, 51.7 .+-. 18.0 l/kg and 0.92 .+-. 0.241 l/kg per h, respectively. Blood/plasma concentrations varied between subjects from 0.77-1.64. A comparison of the bioavailability of 2 oral doses (a 75 mg tablet and three 25 mg tablets) was carried out in the same volunteers. No significant difference was observed between the maprotiline concentrations obtained for the 2 doses at sampling times up to 26 h. No significant difference was found in the area under the concentration vs. time curves for the 2 doses. Equivalent bioavailability can be assumed. Based on the i.v. injection study, systemic bioavailability averaged 66% and 70% for the 75 mg and three 25 mg tablets, respectively.
