[Occlusion of the inferior vena cava--a rare, but severe disease picture, easily diagnosed with ultrasound].

Vena cava inferior thrombosis can occur in many disease patterns. In the literature the vena cava inferior thrombosis is described in several case reports. Thrombosis of the vena cava inferior often leads to pulmonary embolism and influences the prognostic and therapeutic way definitively.

Pharmacokinetics of isosorbide dinitrate, isosorbide-2-nitrate and isosorbide-5-nitrate in renal insufficiency after repeated oral dosage.

The pharmacokinetics of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) and its two active metabolites isosorbide-2-nitrate (IS-2-N) and isosorbide-5-nitrate (IS-5-N) were studied in 20 patients with normal and impaired renal function after repeated oral doses of standard 20 mg tablets ISDN t.i.d.

Pharmacokinetics of isosorbide-5-nitrate during haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

The pharmacokinetics of isosorbide-5-nitrate (IS-5-N) was studied in ten patients on haemodialysis (HD) after a single oral dose of 20 mg IS-5-N, and in six patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) after repeated oral doses of 3 X 20 mg IS-5-N. There was significant removal of IS-5-N from blood during HD; Cmax decreased by about 20%, AUC(0-8 h) by 30% and t1/2 by about 20% from 4.3 to 3.

Pharmacokinetics of isosorbide-5-nitrate in renal failure.

The pharmacokinetics of the antianginal drug isosorbide-5-nitrate (IS-5-N) was studied in 20 patients with varying degrees of chronic renal failure after repeated oral doses of standard 20 mg tablets t.d.s.
