Comparison of intestinal and peritoneal dialysis of theophylline and phenobarbitone in rats

Abstract— Intestinal dialysis of drugs by oral administration of activated charcoal has been compared with peritoneal dialysis in rats. The average amounts of theophylline transported over 120 min into the intestinal lumen and the peritoneal cavity were 15.7 and 16.5% of the intravenous dose (10 mg kg−1), respectively, showing no significant difference, whereas the amount of the same intravenous dose of phenobarbitone transported from the blood into the intestinal lumen (7.8%) was significantly smaller than that entering the peritoneal cavity (12.5%). The net water flux showed that secretion predominated in the peritoneal transport whilst absorption predominated in the intestinal transport for both drugs. However, the net water flux in the intestinal lumen after intravenous theophylline (as aminophylline) was significantly smaller than that following phenobarbitone. The differences in transport across the two membranes could be due to differences in the intrinsic properties of the membranes, such as the surface area, the thickness of the membrane and the distribution of blood vessels. Differences could also be due to differences in the pharmacological effects of the drugs.
