The absorption of phenylbutazone, naproxen and chlorthiazide is governed by a dose-limiting mechanism. This dose-dependency may be explained by a saturation absorption process mathematically obeying Michaelis-Menten type kinetics. Observed dose relationships for tetracycline, fenclozic acid and related compounds, phenytoin and possibly digoxin and digitoxin may be explained if a saturable process in absorption is postulated. This behavior may be produced by isolubility of the drug compound, a limited window of absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, or a capacity limited absorption because of the carrier or the transport mechanism involved. The need for suitably designed dose response studies with new drug compounds is discussed.
