The disposition of intravenous glycofurol, a solvent for some drugs, was followed in nine male patients with hepatic cirrhosis. In comparison with age‐matched controls, glycofurol clearance in the patients with cirrhosis was reduced 43% and terminal t½ was prolonged 103%. There was no significant difference between the cirrhotic and control groups in volume of distribution. Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (1984) 36, 82–84; doi: 10.1038/clpt.1984.143
