Abstract

The absorption of etoposide (VP-16-213) was investigated in a perfused intestinal loop. The absorbed amount of drug was determined by collecting the blood draining the loop via cannulation of the efferent jejunal vein. The absorption rate of VP-16-213 strongly depended on the composition of the perfusion medium. The addition of taurocholate to an aqueous etoposide solution enhanced the absorption rate. When N-acetylcysteine was added to an aqueous solution, the absorption rate dropped significantly.
