This study was aimed to establish analytical method of Bi to develop a guideline of the bioequivalence test of tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate (TDB). For this purpose, a simple, specific and sensitive inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP/MS) method were developed and validated in human plasma. Various concentrations of bismuth standard solution (0-25ng/mL) were prepared with distilled water and human blank plasma. To 10mL of the volumetric flasks, 2mL of blank plasma was added with 8ml of distilled water. Bi standard solution was added to prepare the calibration samples and injected into ICP-MS. The plasma samples obtained from volunteers given 3 tablets of bismuth (total 900mg as TDB) were analyzed as described above. As a result, the coefficients of variation were <20% in quantitation limit (0.2 ng/mL) and <15% at the rest of concentrations. The stability test by repeated freezing-thawing cycles showed that the samples were stable only for 24hr. The stability tested for samples with a short-term period of storage at room temperature and pre-treatment prior to the analysis showed very stable over 24hr. In 8 healthy Korean subjects received Denol tablets at the dose of 900mg bismuth, AUC, $C_{max},\;T_{max}$ and half-life $(t_{1/2})$ were determined to be $198.33{\pm}173.78 ng{\cdot}hr/mL,\;64.48{\pm}27.06 ng/mL,\;0.52{\pm}0.21 hr,\;and\;5.15{\pm}2.67 hr$, respectively, from the plasma bismuth concentration-time curves. In conclusion, the method was suitable for the determination of bismuth in human plasma samples and could be applied to bioequivalence test of bismuth tablet.

The pharmacokinetics of DWP302, a new combined ranitidine preparation in rats and dogs was studied using HPLC. DWP302 was composed of ranitidine, sucralfate and tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate. Especially, this study was focused on the possibilities that the concomitant administration of either sucralfate or TDB may affect the absorption of orally administered ranitidine. Ranitidine and DWP302 were orally administered to rats at a dose of ranitidine 10mg/kg. Several rats showed the biphasic peak of plasma concentration. AUC$_{S_{0-8}}$ of ranitidine and DWP302 group were found to be 1040$\pm$109 and 945$\pm$124 ng.hr/ml, respectively, and there was no significant difference between both AUCs. In a cross-over study for dogs, $C_{max}$, t$_{1/2}$ beta and total AUC of ranitidine group were found to be 625.8$\pm$86.7 ng/ml, 2.80$\pm$0.28 hr and 1688$\pm$127 ng.hr/ml, and those of DWP302 group were 562.6$\pm$120.9 ng/ml, 3.05$\pm$0.30 hr and 1673$\pm$123 ng.hr/ml, respectively. There was no significant difference between those parameters, but Tmax of DWP302 group (1.69$\pm$0.31 hr) was significantly different from ranitidine group (1.13$\pm$0.26 hr). The results suggest that either sucralfate or TDB may affect the lag-time or rate of absorption of ranitidine but not the extent of absorption.
