Effect of Food on the Bioavailability of Bendroflumethiazide

Abstract
Bendroflumethiazide (BFT), 10 mg, was given orally to 8 subjects after fasting overnight and together with a meal. Concentrations of the diuretic in plasma and urine were determined by GLC. As judged by AUC.infin. [area under the plasma concentration time curve] and urinary recovery of BFT, the bioavailability of the diuretic was not influenced by concomitant intake of a meal.
