Metronidazole and its known metabolites in plasma can be rapidly separated by a "high-pressure" liquid-chromatographic method that can also be adapted for rapid determination of tinidazole. Samples deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid (50 g/L final concentration) undergo isocratic separation on a

The pharmacokinetics of metronidazole, its biologically active alcohol metabolite, and its inactive acid metabolite were studied in five noninfected patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and five patients undergoing hemodialysis. The latter were studied on off-dialysis days as a control
Biopharmaceutics & drug disposition, 8(3), 249-259 (1987-05-01)
The pharmacokinetics of metronidazole (MTZ) were studied in six Crohn's disease patients after multiple oral daily doses of 250, 500, 750, and 1000 mg day-1. Pharmacokinetic indices were found to be independent of the dose administered. The half-life, volume of

A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the assay of metronidazole and its 2-hydroxymethyl metabolite in sera was compared with a microbiological method, an agar well diffusion technique with Clostridium perfringens as indicator strain. The HPLC technique involves separation of
The susceptibilities of strains of Gardnerella vaginalis (Haemophilus vaginalis), Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Bacteroides fragilis to metronidazole and its principal oxidative metabolites (1-[2-hydroxyethyl]-2-hydroxymethyl-5-nitroimidazole) ("hydroxy" metabolite) and 1-acetic acid-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole ("acid" metabolite), were compared by determinations of the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of
