Abstract

The effect of probenecid on the renal excretion of dyphylline was studied in chicken, rat and man. Dyphylline was found to be actively excreted when measured by the Sperber preparation in hens, the isolated perfused kidney of the rat and clearance studies in man. In each study probenecid significantly decreased dyphylline excretion demonstrating that dyphylline occupied the renal organic anion transport system. This same drug interaction, at the level of the renal excretory system, in these three species occurred at comparable concentrations of dyphylline and probenecid.
