When rats were given Li for 3 days , followed by a single injection of imipramine , the concentrations of desipramine in the brain and serum were higher than those in the vehicle-treated rat , although the imipramine concentrations in both tissues did not differ in Li- and in vehicle-treated rats .
Effects of lithium on alterations of pharmacokinetics of imipramine and on the related changes of monoamines in rat brain. Rats were given chronically i.p. imipramine (20 mg/kg), LiCl (1 mg/kg) or both drugs to examine the effects of lithium (Li) on the alterations of imipramine pharmacokinetics in the whole brain and on the imipramine-related changes of norepinephrine (NE) and serotonin (5-HT) levels in the brain. When rats were given Li for 3 days , followed by a single injection of imipramine , the concentrations of desipramine in the brain and serum were higher than those in the vehicle-treated rat , although the imipramine concentrations in both tissues did not differ in Li- and in vehicle-treated rats . In rats receiving both drugs for 10 days, the steady state levels of imipramine and desipramine in the brain were the same as those in the vehicle-treated rats but the steady state level of desipramine was reached earlier with Li treatments presumably because of the enhanced demethylation of imipramine. Consequently, the desipramine-dependent alterations of NE and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol levels in the brain appeared to be induced earlier and more markedly when Li was given simultaneously. As the 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) levels were elevated in the brains of Li-treated rats and reduced in brains of imipramine-treated rats as compared with the level in vehicle-treated rats, the 5-HIAA level in rats receiving both drugs was equivalent to that in vehicle-treated rats.
