Six normal males and eight male subjects with alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and ascites were given a single 500-mg dose of erythromycin base. Twelve serum samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 24 h after dosing and assayed microbiologically for erythromycin concentration. Absorption was characterized by a zero-order model for both groups. ALD subjects demonstrated a shorter lag time (2.0 versus 3.0 h), an earlier peak (4.6 versus 6.3 h, P less than 0.05), and higher peak concentrations (2.04 versus 1.50 micrograms/ml) than normal subjects. Previously unreported biphasic elimination kinetics after oral dosing were observed in five and four ALD subjects. In the ALD group, the mean half lives for the first (alpha) and terminal (beta) phases were 1.6 and 4.5 h, respectively, and in normal subjects, were 1.3 and 6.6 h. The difference in alpha between groups was significant, P less than 0.05. The clinical significance of this finding for ALD patients receiving prolonged courses of erythromycin is discussed.
