    Abstract:
    The study was performed with 14C-tiropramide hydrochloride, i.e. O-(2-diethylamino-ethyl)-N-benzoyl-[DL-(U-14C)tyrosyl]-dipropylamide+ ++ hydrochloride, with a specific activity of 466.16 microCi/mmol. For the study of pulmonary, urinary and fecal excretion the substance was administered in single intravenous (i.v.) doses of 4 mg/kg to 4 rats (2 males and 2 females) and in single peroral (p.o.) doses of 10 mg/kg to other 4 rats (2 males and 2 females). For the study of biliary excretion 4 mg/kg of 14C-tiropramide hydrochloride were administered in single i.v. doses to 4 rats (2 males and 2 females) anesthetized with urethane and the bile was collected from the choledocus in the 8 h following administration. The radioactivity in the expired CO2, urine feces and bile was measured by scintillometry. The radioactive substances were extracted, separated by TLC and identified by comparison of their Rf values with those of putative metabolites with known chemical structure. The following results were obtained. Radioactivity in the expired CO2: No radioactivity was found, either after i.v. or p.o. administration. Radioactivity in urine: In the 48 h after administration 37% of the i.v. administered radioactivity and 31% of the p.o. administered radioactivity was recovered in the urine. Six basic substances could be identified. In order of decreasing abundance these were CR 1166, CR 1098, tiropramide, CR 1034, CR 1919 and CR 1938. Radioactivity in feces: In the 120 h after administration 60% of the i.v. administered radioactivity and 56% of the p.o. administered radioactivity was recovered in the feces.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
