PHARMACOKINETICS
Ascorbic acid is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and
is
widely distributed in the body tissues. Plasma concentrations of
ascorbic
acid rise as the dose ingested is increased until a plateau is reached
with
doses of about 90 to 150mg daily. Body stores of ascorbic acid in
health are
about 1.5g although more may be stored at intakes above 200mg daily.
The
concentration is higher in leucocytes and platelets than in
erythrocytes and
plasma. In deficiency states the concentration in leucocytes declines
later
and at a slower rate, and has been considered to be a better criterion
for
the evaluation of deficiency than the concentration in plasma.
Ascorbic
acid is reversibly oxidised to dehydroascorbic acid; some is
metabolised to
ascorbate-2-sulfate, which is inactive, and oxalic acid which are
excreted in
the urine. Ascorbic acid in excess of the body's needs is also rapidly
eliminated unchanged in the urine; this generally occurs with intakes
exceeding
100mg
daily.
Ascorbic
acid
crosses
the
placenta
and
is
distributed into breast milk. It is removed by haemodialysis.
