Abstract
A possible interaction between tolbutamide and ketoconazole was studied in seven healthy volunteers. Treatment for 1 week with 200 mg oral ketoconazole increased the elimination half-life (from mean +/- s.d. 3.7 +/- 0.4 to 12.3 +/- 1.9 h) and AUC(0.12 h) of tolbutamide (from 309 +/- 27 to 546 +/- 20 micrograms ml-1 h) by 25 +/- 64 and 66 +/- 15%, respectively. The percentage blood glucose reduction was also increased when tolbutamide and ketoconazole were coadministered.Entities:
