Abstract

The Langmuir affinity constant and adsorptive capacity for the adsorption of citrate anion or cholate anion by colestipol hydrochloride at pH 7.5, 37 degrees C, were similar. Prior exposure of colestipol hydrochloride to citrate anion caused the adsorption of cholate anion to decrease slightly in comparison to a control utilizing only cholate anion. The concentration of citrate anion was found to be directly related to the decrease in cholate anion adsorption. Simultaneous exposure of colestipol hydrochloride to citrate and cholate anions at pH 7.5, 37 degrees C, resulted in the same adsorption of cholate anion as sequential exposure to citrate anion followed by cholate anion. Sequential exposure of colestipol hydrochloride to simulated gastric fluid and simulated intestinal fluid containing cholate anion resulted in a small decrease in cholate adsorption which was attributed to competition with phosphate anion in simulated intestinal fluid. Pepsin in the simulated gastric fluid did not affect adsorption of cholate anion from simulated intestinal fluid. Preexposure to components of tomato juice and orange juice also slightly reduced the adsorption of cholate anion by colestipol hydrochloride.
