This study tested the hypothesis that cimetidine decreases theophylline clearance. Aminophylline (6 mg/kg) was administered intravenously both before and after cimetidine treatment in 5 healthy adults. Cimetidine (300 mg) was administered orally every 6 h for 2 days before and 18 h after the aminophylline dose. Plasma samples were collected before and for 24 h after each aminophylline dose, and theophylline concentrations were determined by an enzymemediated immunoassay technique.Cimetidine significantly decreased theophylline clearance, mean decrease, 39% (3.85 ± 0.27 L/h control versus 2.34 ± 0.23 L/h with cimetidine treatment, p < 0.002). The apparent volume of distribution was unchanged (p > 0.5), whereas the elimination rate constant was significantly decreased by a mean of 42% (control, 0.091 ± 0.013 h-1versus 0.053 ± 0.007 h1with cimetidine treatment, p < 0.005). This corresponded to an average increase in elimination half-life of 73% (range, 50 to 97%). Cimetidine probably slowed theophylline elimination by relatively nonspecific inhibition of the hepatic microsomal mono-oxygenase system. This effect may produce clinically significant changes in serum theophylline concentrations.
