▧ Absorption :
Adequate sedation achieved after 7 minutes with a IV bolus dose of 10mg/kg. It takes 21-45 minutes for patients to recover for fospropopol-induced sedation. Following an intravenous bolus administration of 6 mg/kg in a healthy subject, the pharmacokinetic parameters of fospropofol are as follows:
Cmax = 78.7 μg/mL;
Tmax = 4 minutes;
AUC(0-∞) = 19.0 μg ⋅ h/mL;
▧ Volume of Distribution :
Fospropofol = 0.33±0.069 L/kg;
Propofol metabolite = 5.8 L/kg.
▧ Protein binding :
Both fospropofol and its active metabolite propofol are highly protein bound (approximately 98%), primarily to albumin. Fospropofol does not affect the binding of propofol to albumin.
▧ Metabolism :
Fospropofol is metabolized into propofol, formaldehyde, and phosphate by endothelial alkaline phosphatase. The metabolite, formaldehyde, is quickly oxidized into formic acid by glutathione dependent and independent dehydrogenases and erythrocytes. Excess formic acid is eliminated via oxidation to carbon dioxide through the tetrahydrofolate pathway. Propofol is further metabolized into propofol glucuronide, quinol-4-sulfate, quinol-1-fluronide, and quinol-4-glucuronide. The cytochrome P450 enzyme system is not involved with the metabolism of fospropofol.
▧ Route of Elimination :
Chiefly eliminated by hepatic conjugation to inactive metabolites which are excreted by the kidney. There is negligible renal elimination of unchanged fospropofol (<0.02%).
▧ Half Life :
When given to a patient, the half-lives are as follows:
Fospropofol = 0.81 hours;
Propofol metabolite = 1.13 hours
▧ Clearance :
Total body clearance (CLp), Fospropofol, healthy subject = 0.28 L/h/kg;
CLp, fospropofol, patients = 0.31 L/h/kg;
CLp/F, propofol, healthy subjects or patients = 2.74 L/h/kg.
