CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACOKINETICS: Following a single 200 mg oral dose of PLAQUENIL to
healthy male volunteers,
the mean peak blood concentration of hydroxychloroquine was 129.6
ng/mL, reached in 3.26 hours with
a half-life of 537 hours (22.4 days). In the same study, the plasma
peak concentration was 50.3 ng/mL
reached in 3.74 hours with a half-life of 2963 hours (123.5 days).
Urine hydroxychloroquine levels
were still detectable after 3 months with approximately 10% of the
dose excreted was parent drug.
Results following a single dose of a 200 mg tablet versus i.v.
infusion (155 mg), demonstrated a half-
life of about 40 days and a large volume of distribution. Peak blood
concentrations of metabolites were
observed at the same time as peak levels of hydroxycholoquine. The
mean fraction of the dose
absorbed was 0.74. After administration of single 155 mg and 310 mg
intravenous doses, peak blood
concentrations ranged from 1161 ng/mL to 2436 ng/mL (mean 1918 ng/mL)
following the 155 mg
infusion and 6 months following the 3as10 mg infusion. Pharmacokinetic
parameters were not
