Table 2.

Pharmacokinetic parameters of INH in plasma among fast, intermediate, and slow acetylators by the chromatographic method.

Genotype of acetylation Pharmacokinetic parameters of INH
I 3 C 6 K e T 0,5 C max AUC0–6 AUCtotal
Fast 0,36a 0,27a 0,51b 1,59a 3,39a 8,6a 9,2a
Intermediate 0,55a 0,70a 0,41b 1,85a 5,80b 15,4b 17,5b
Slow 0,97b 2,20b 0,27a 3,14b 7,09c 24,5c 35,5c

The different letters in the columns indicate significant differences (at P ≤ 0.05) between the respective types of acetylation.

I 3: index of acetylation.

C 6: concentration of INH 6 hours after drug administration.

K e: fixed speed of elimination 1/h.

T 0,5: elimination half time.

AUC0–6: area under concentration curve in the period 0–6 hours.

AUCtotal: area under concentration curve.
