BACKGROUND: Sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) is widely used as an intermittent preventive treatment for malaria in pregnancy (IPTp). However, pharmacokinetic studies in pregnancy show variable and often contradictory findings. We describe population and trimester-specific differences in SP pharmacokinetics among Ugandan women.
METHODS: SP (three tablets) were administered to 34 nonpregnant and 87 pregnant women in the second trimester. Seventy-eight pregnant women were redosed in the third trimester. Blood was collected over time points ranging from 0.5 h to 42 days postdose. Data on the variables age, body weight, height, parity, gestational age, and serum creatinine, alanine transaminase and albumin levels were collected at baseline. Plasma drug assays were performed using high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. Population pharmacokinetic analysis was done using NONMEM software.
RESULTS: A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and a lag time best described both the sulphadoxine and pyrimethamine data. Between trimesters, statistically significant differences in central volumes of distribution (V(2)) were observed for both drugs, while differences in the distribution half-life and the terminal elimination half-life were observed for pyrimethamine and sulphadoxine, respectively. Significant covariate relationships were identified on clearance (pregnancy status and serum albumin level) and V(2) (gestational age) for sulphadoxine. For pyrimethamine, clearance (pregnancy status and age) and V(2) (gestational age and body weight) were significant. Considering a 25 % threshold for clinical relevance, only differences in clearance of both drugs between pregnant and nonpregnant women were significant.
CONCLUSION: While clinically relevant differences in SP disposition between trimesters were not seen, increased clearance with pregnancy and the increasing volume of distribution in the central compartment with gestational age lend support to the revised World Health Organization guidelines advocating more frequent dosing of SP for IPTp.
