1 Decreased elimination of unbound prazosin in the presence of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein in the rat in vivo. Prazosin orosomucoid 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 Administration of 40 and 100 mg/kg of AAG decreased the unbound fraction in plasma of prazosin from 0.238 to 0.175 and 0.090, respectively. Prazosin orosomucoid 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 Administration of 40 mg/kg of AAG decreased the clearance of prazosin with respect to unbound drug (CLu) on the average by 40%. Prazosin orosomucoid 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 Because prazosin is a low-to-medium extraction ratio compound in the rat, this decrease in CLu indicates that AAG has an inhibitory effect on the elimination of prazosin that goes beyond a simple protein binding effect. Prazosin orosomucoid 1 Rattus norvegicus
5 Because prazosin is a low-to-medium extraction ratio compound in the rat, this decrease in CLu indicates that AAG has an inhibitory effect on the elimination of prazosin that goes beyond a simple protein binding effect. Prazosin orosomucoid 1 Rattus norvegicus
