Salivary excretion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was investigated during constant rate intravenous infusion (0.306 mg/kg/min) in three male beagle dogs. Parotid (Pr) and mandibular-sublingual (MS) saliva were collected separately by stimulating salivation with 10% citric acid. After the start of 5-FU infusion, plasma and salivary 5-FU concentration increased rapidly to approach their steady state levels. There was a significant correlation between each saliva and plasma 5-FU concentration (p less than 0.01). The saliva/plasma drug concentration ratio (S/P ratio) and salivary pH were significantly higher in Pr than in MS saliva (p less than 0.001), similar to the results following bolus intravenous administration of 5-FU in beagle dogs. Both S/P ratio and salivary clearance increased with time before steady state. Thereafter, these values approached almost constant levels and their fluctuations became smaller than those following the bolus intravenous administration. These results showing S/P ratio and salivary clearance of 5-FU were affected by the plasma drug concentration, suggested the possibility that non-linear pharmacokinetics may be involved in the salivary excretion of 5-FU.
