We underwent this study to know correlation between the amount of portosysternic shunt/hepatic fibrosis and bioavailability parameters such as AUC, Cmax, Tmax and t1 /2 of high extraction ratio drug, propranolol, in CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis model of rats. This study describes the bioavaility study of propranolol(5 mg/kg), Shunt Index using thallium-201 per rectum scintigraphy to to measure the amount of portosystemic shunt indirectly and intrahepatic hydroxyproline content performed in the CCl4-induced liver cirrhosis model of rats.
