CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Actions: The mechanism of action in Dermatitis
herpetiformis has not been established. By the kinetic method in mice,
Dapsone is bactericidal as well as bacteriostatic against Mycobacterium leprae.
Absorption and Excretion: Dapsone, when given
orally, is rapidly and almost completely absorbed. About 85 percent of
the daily intake is recoverable from the urine mainly in the form of
water-soluble metabolites. Excretion of the drug is slow and a constant
blood level can be maintained with the usual dosage.
Blood Levels: Detected a few minutes after
ingestion, the drug reaches peak concentration in 4-8 hours. Daily
administration for at least eight days is necessary to achieve a plateau
level. With doses of 200 mg daily, this level averaged 2.3 μg/ml with a
range of 0.1-7.0 μg/ml. The half-life in the plasma in different
individuals varies from ten hours to fifty hours and averages
twenty-eight hours. Repeat tests in the same individual are constant.
Daily administration (50 - 100 mg) in leprosy patients will provide
blood levels in excess of the usual minimum inhibitory concentration
even for patients with a short Dapsone half-lif
