In rats, the fraction of RS-127445 that is bioavailable via the oral or intraperitoneal routes is 14 and 60% respectively. Intraperitoneal administration of RS-127445 (5 mg/kg) produced plasma concentrations predicted to fully saturate accessible 5-HT_2B receptors for at least 4 h.RS-127445 (5 mg/kg) is administered to rats by oral, intraperitoneal and intravenous routes. Peak plasma concentrations are rapidly achieved with the highest concentrations being found at the first time-point measured following intravenous and intraperitonael administration (0.08 h) and by 0.25 h following dosing by the oral route of administration. RS-127445 is cleared from plasma with an estimated terminal elimination half-life of approximately 1.7 h. The bioavailability of RS-127445, when administered by the oral and intraperitoneal routes is approximately 14 and 62% of that obtained by intravenous administration. Approximately 60% of an intraperitoneal dose and 14% of the oral dose of RS-127445 (5 mg/kg) is bioavailable^[1]. RS-127445 (1-30 mg/kg), dose-dependently reduces faecal output, reaching significance at 10 and 30 mg/kg (n=6-11). In blood and brain, >98% of RS-127445 is protein-bound^[2].
