RESUMEN
AIM: Research on bifendate intestinal absorption. METHOD: The single passed intestinal backflow method was used. Bifendate with different concentrations, bifendate with and without 2,4-dinitrophenol, verapamil, and probenecid, and solid state of bifendate in different systems were studied. RESULT: Change of concentration and the presence of energy inhibitor, P-glycoprotein inhibitor and multidrug-resistant protein inhibitor did not affect the K(a) of bifendate intestinal absorption; there were obvious differences among intestinal absorption of native drug, solid dispersion, and physical mixtures. CONCLUSION: The result indicated that the intestinal absorption mechanism of bifendate is passive transport. Solid state of bifendate in different systems could affect the intestinal absorption.
