The pharmacokinetics of oxypurinol in people with gout [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2012
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT• Response to allopurinol in patients with gout is often suboptimal due to large variability in pharmacokinetics.• The sources of the variability in oxypurinol pharmacokinetics have not been systematically identified and quantified.• A therapeutic target 15–23 mg l−1for oxypurinol concentrations has recently been

The population pharmacokinetics of allopurinol and oxypurinol in patients with gout

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
The aims of this study were to develop a population pharmacokinetic model for allopurinol and oxypurinol and to explore the influence of patient characteristics on allopurinol and oxypurinol pharmacokinetics.Data from 92 patients with gout and 12 healthy volunteers were available for analysis.

Allopurinol and oxypurinol promote osteoblast differentiation and increase bone formation [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Cell Research, 2016
Allopurinol and its active metabolite, oxypurinol are widely used in the treatment of gout and hyperuricemia. They inhibit xanthine oxidase (XO) an enzyme in the purine degradation pathway that converts xanthine to uric acid. This investigation examined the effect of allopurinol and oxypurinol on bone formation, cell number and viability, gene ...

Oxidative and nitrosative stress in acute pancreatitis. Modulation by pentoxifylline and oxypurinol

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 2012
Reactive oxygen species are considered mediators of the inflammatory response and tissue damage in acute pancreatitis. We previously found that the combined treatment with oxypurinol - as inhibitor of xanthine oxidase- and pentoxifylline - as inhibitor of TNF-α production-restrained local and systemic inflammatory response and decreased mortality in ...

The impact of peritoneal dialysis on oxypurinol and urate elimination in people with gout

open access: yesNephrology
Abstract Gout affects 15%–30% of individuals with advanced kidney disease. Allopurinol which is rapidly and extensively metabolised to an active metabolite, oxypurinol, is the most commonly prescribed urate‐lowering therapy. Oxypurinol is almost entirely eliminated by the kidneys (>95%) and has an elimination half‐life of 18–30 h in those with normal ...

Measurement of urinary oxypurinol by high performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry

open access: yesJournal of Chromatography B: Analytical Technologies in the Biomedical and Life Sciences, 2010
Oxypurinol is the active metabolite of allopurinol which is used to treat hyperuricaemia associated with gout. Both oxypurinol and allopurinol inhibit xanthine oxidase which forms uric acid from xanthine and hypoxanthine. Plasma oxypurinol concentrations

Effect of Oxypurinol on Renal Reperfusion Injury in the Rat

open access: yesRenal Failure, 1993
Oxygen-based free radicals produced by the enzyme xanthine oxidase may be involved in postischemic reperfusion injury. To determine whether oxypurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor and the major metabolite of allopurinol, attenuates renal ischemic reperfusion injury, and, if so, to determine its most effective dose, oxypurinol 2.5, 5, 10 or 20 mg/kg BW

Oxypurinol attenuates ischemia-induced hippocampal damage in the gerbil

Brain Research Bulletin, 1989
Oxypurinol, an inhibitor of the enzyme xanthine oxidase, reduced ischemic hippocampal damage and the associated hypermotility in Mongolian gerbils. Cerebral ischemia was induced in unanesthetized gerbils by a bilateral 5-min occlusion of the carotid arteries.

An allopurinol adherence tool using plasma oxypurinol concentrations

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2022
AbstractAimsThis study aimed to develop and evaluate an allopurinol adherence tool based on steady‐state oxypurinol plasma concentrations, allopurinol's active metabolite.MethodsPlasma oxypurinol concentrations were simulated stochastically from an oxypurinol pharmacokinetic model for allopurinol doses of 100‐800 mg daily, accounting for differences in

Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Allopurinol and Oxypurinol

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2007
Allopurinol is the drug most widely used to lower the blood concentrations of urate and, therefore, to decrease the number of repeated attacks of gout. Allopurinol is rapidly and extensively metabolised to oxypurinol (oxipurinol), and the hypouricaemic efficacy of allopurinol is due very largely to this metabolite.
