The aim of this investigation was to assess the pharmacokinetics of naproxen in 10 human subjects after an oral dose of 500 mg using a direct HPLC analysis of the acyl glucuronide conjugates of naproxen and its metabolite O‐desmethylnaproxen. The mean t1/2 of naproxen in 9 subjects was 24.7 ± 6.4 h (range 16 to 36 h). The t1/2 of 7.4 as found in subject number 10 must, therefore, be regarded as an extraordinary case (p <0.0153). Naproxen acyl glucuronide accounts for 50.8 ± 7.32 per cent of the… CONTINUE READING
