1. NaCl (100 mM) reduced the potency of (+)-N-methyl-4-methyldiphenhydramine ((+)-QMDP) as an inhibitor of the binding of [3H]-mepyramine to histamine H1-receptors on guinea-pig cerebellar membranes to a greater extent than that of mepyramine, consistent with the greater inhibitory effect of Na+ on the binding of [3H]-QMDP than on the binding of [3H]-mepyramine. 2.

Many drugs have been found to increase or decrease the clearance of theophylline, probably by interaction with one or more of the variants of the cytochrome P450 drug-metabolising system. Theophylline may be particularly susceptible to alteration of its clearance because of the particular form(s) of the P450 system involved, because its metabolism is saturable, and/or because 90% of its elimination is via metabolism. Its clearance has been found to be decreased (typically by around 25%, but often by far more) by erythromycin, troleandomycin (triacetyloleandomycin), roxithromycin, enoxacin, ciprofloxacin, pefloxacin, norfloxacin, ofloxacin, fluoroquinolone T-3262, pipemidic acid, cimetidine, etintidine, propranolol, verapamil, diltiazem, nifedipine, furosemide (frusemide), at least some anovulent agents, viloxazine, allopurinol, ticlopidine, idrocilamide, thiabendazole, disulfiram, influenza- and BCG-vaccination, interferon, and caffeine (half-life increase).

The binding of [3H]mepyramine to histamine H1-receptors solublized from guinea-pig cerebellum by 1% digitonin could be assayed by adsorption of the receptor-bound [3H]ligand to glass-fibre filters pretreated with 0.3% polyethylenimine (PEI). Non-specific binding was higher than in parallel experiments in which the bound and free [3H]ligand was separated by gel-filtration on Sephadex G-25 columns, but the parameters characterizing the inhibition curves were otherwise similar.

The pharmacokinetics of theophylline (i.v. aminophylline 250 mg) were studied in a balanced, double-blind crossover following the administration of oral temelastine (100 mg) or placebo, twice daily for 7 days, to 10 normal volunteers.
