I PREFACE

Preface
Drug removal during dialysis is frequently of
interest to those caring for patients receiving
hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. The extent
of drug dialyzability determines whether
supplemental dosing is necessary during or
following dialysis. The accompanying table is
a reference regarding the effect of either form
of dialysis on drug clearance. This table should
be used as a general guideline.
The drugs included in the table are parent
drugs. In some cases, these drugs are converted
to pharmacologically active or toxic metabolites
for which little dialysis information is known.
Therefore, for a few drugs, a primary metabolite
is also included in the table. When available,
serum drug measurements may be appropriate
for dosing individual patients. In all cases,
patients should be monitored for clinical
efficacy and toxicity.

What Determines Drug


Dialyzability?
The extent to which a drug is affected by dialysis is
determined primarily by several physicochemical
characteristics of the drug that are briefly described
in the text that follows. These include molecular
size, protein binding, volume of distribution, water
solubility, and plasma clearance. In addition to
these properties of the drug, technical aspects of
the dialysis procedure also may determine the
extent to which a drug is removed by dialysis.

2010 Dialysis of Drugs

Molecular Weight
Dialysis is dependent upon the use of a dialytic
membrane: either a synthetic membrane
with fixed pore size, as in hemodialysis, or
a naturally occurring peritoneal membrane,
as in peritoneal dialysis. The movement of
drugs or other solutes is largely determined
by the size of these molecules in relation to
the pore size of the membrane. As a general
rule, smaller molecular weight substances will
pass through the membrane more easily than
larger molecular weight substances. A common
assumption is that pore size of the peritoneal
membrane is somewhat larger than that of the
hemodialysis membrane. This would explain
the observation that larger molecular weight
substances appear to cross the peritoneal
membrane to a greater extent than the
hemodialysis membrane.

Protein Binding
Another important factor determining drug
dialyzability is the concentration gradient
of unbound (free) drug across the dialysis
membrane. Drugs with a high degree of protein
binding will have a low plasma concentration
of unbound drug available for dialysis. Uremia
may have an effect on protein binding for some
drugs. Through mechanisms not completely
understood, protein binding may decrease in
uremic serum. Should this change in binding be
substantial, increased dialyzability of free drug
may occur.

SEE DISCLAIMER REGARDING USE OF THIS GUIDE

I PREFACE

Because the primary binding proteins for most


drugs (albumin, 1-acid glycoprotein) are of
large molecular size, the drug-protein complex
is often unable to cross the dialysis membrane,
especially the hemodialysis membrane. Since the
peritoneal membrane does permit the passage
of some proteins, there may be some limited
drug-protein removal with peritoneal dialysis.
Increased protein concentrations often occur in
peritoneal effluent during episodes of peritonitis.

Volume of Distribution
A drug with a large volume of distribution
is distributed widely throughout tissues and
is present in relatively small amounts in the
blood. Factors that contribute to a large volume
of distribution include a high degree of lipid
solubility and low plasma protein binding.
Drugs with a large volume of distribution are
likely to be dialyzed minimally.

Water Solubility
The dialysate used for either hemodialysis or
peritoneal dialysis is an aqueous solution. In
general, drugs with high water solubility will
be dialyzed to a greater extent than those with
high lipid solubility. Highly lipid-soluble drugs
tend to be distributed throughout tissues, and
therefore only a small fraction of the drug is
present in plasma and accessible for dialysis.

Plasma Clearance
The inherent metabolic clearancethe sum of
renal and nonrenal clearanceis often termed
the plasma clearance of a drug. In dialysis

patients, renal clearance is largely replaced by


dialysis clearance. If nonrenal clearance is large
compared to renal clearance, the contribution of
dialysis to total drug removal is low. However,
if renal (dialysis) clearance increases plasma
clearance by 30% or more, dialysis clearance
is considered to be clinically important.

Dialysis Membrane
As mentioned previously, the characteristics
of the dialysis membrane determine to a
large extent the dialysis of drugs. Pore size,
surface area, and geometry are the primary
determinants of the performance of a given
membrane. The technology of hemodialysis
has evolved, and new membranes have been
introduced for clinical use. Interpretation of
published literature should be tempered with
the understanding that newer hemodialysis
membranes may have different drug dialysis
characteristics. Little can be done to alter the
characteristics of the peritoneal membrane.

Blood and Dialysate Flow Rates


The hemodialysis prescription includes the
desired blood and dialysate flow rates. As drugs
normally move from blood to dialysate, the
flow rates of these two substances may have a
pronounced effect on dialyzability. In general,
increased blood flow rates during hemodialysis
will deliver greater amounts of drug to the
dialysis membrane. As the drug concentration
increases in the dialysate, the flow rate of the
dialysis solution also becomes important in
overall drug removal. Greater dialysis can be

achieved with faster dialysate flow rates that keep


the dialysate drug concentration at a minimum.
During peritoneal dialysis, little can be done
to alter blood flow rates to the peritoneum.
However, dialysate flow rates are determined
by the volume and frequency of dialysate
exchange in the peritoneum. At low exchange
rates, drug concentrations in the dialysate
will increase during the time in which the
dialysate resides in the peritoneum, thus
slowing additional movement of drug across
the membrane. More frequent exchanges will
favor increased drug dialyzability, provided the
drugs physicochemical characteristics permit its
movement across the peritoneal membrane.

Special Considerations
HIGH PERMEABILITY DIALYSIS
Much of the information contained in this guide
has been obtained from studies conducted
under conditions of standard hemodialysis that
employed conventional dialysis membranes.
Changes in dialysis technology have led to
more permeable dialysis membranes and
the opportunity to employ higher blood and
dialysate flow rates. These new technologies
are often referred to as high permeability,
high-efficiency, and high-flux dialysis. The
United States Food and Drug Administration has
classified high permeability dialysis membranes
as those whose in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient
(KUf) is greater than 8 mL/hour/mm Hg.
Commonly included in this group of dialysis
membranes are polysulfone, polyacrylonitrile,

and high-efficiency cuprammonium rayon


dialyzers. Changes in dialysis membranes
and changes in blood and dialysis flow rates
may have clinically important effects on drug
removal through the membrane.
There are an increasing number of studies that
examine the effects of high permeability dialysis
on drug dialyzability. Results of these studies
confirm predictions that drug removal from
plasma is often enhanced as compared with
more traditional dialysis membranes. Studies
with high permeability dialysis also demonstrate
that removal of drug from plasma often exceeds
the transfer of drug from tissues to plasma. As a
result, a rebound of plasma drug concentrations
following the conclusion of dialysis may occur
as blood-tissue drug equilibration occurs.
Patients receiving high permeability dialysis
may require more drug compared with those
receiving standard hemodialysis. Due to the
many technical and physiological variables,
individualized therapeutic drug monitoring
may be necessary. The reader is referred to the
primary literature for further details.
CONTINUOUS RENAL
REPLACEMENT THERAPY
Another therapeutic development that will
affect drug dialyzability is continuous renal
replacement therapy (CRRT), known in its
various forms as continuous arteriovenous
hemofiltration (CAVH), continuous venovenous
hemofiltration (CVVH), continuous
arteriovenous hemodialysis (CAVHD),
continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD),
8

I SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration


(CVVHDF), continuous arteriovenous
hemodiafiltration (CAVHDF), slow continuous
ultrafiltration (SCUF), continuous arteriovenous
high-flux hemodialysis (CAVHFD), and
continuous venovenous high-flux hemodialysis
(CVVHFD). These various techniques are used
in the management of acute renal failure in
critically ill patients.
Continuous renal replacement therapies differ
considerably from intermittent hemodialysis.
Relying heavily upon continuous ultrafiltration
of plasma water, CRRT has the potential for
the removal of large quantities of ultrafilterable
drugs contained in plasma. Unfortunately,
few in vivo studies have been published,
and very few drugs have been studied
pharmacokinetically in intensive care patients.
Therefore, many guidelines for drug dosing
during CRRT are extrapolated from experiences
with chronic hemodialysis or from theoretical
considerations based upon general principles of
drug removal derived from the physicochemical
characteristics of the drug and the CRRT
technique employed.
Molecular weight of a drug has been an
important determinant of drug dialyzability
in conventional hemodialysis. This drug
characteristic becomes less important
during CRRT because of the use of highflux hemofilters that permit passage of larger
molecules up to 5000 Da. As is true with
conventional hemodialysis, drugs with a
large volume of distribution are unlikely to be
removed to a great extent during CRRT. Most
SEE DISCLAIMER REGARDING USE OF THIS GUIDE

2010 Dialysis of Drugs

of the body stores of such drugs are outside the


vascular compartment and not accessible to the
hemofilter for removal. Similarly, drugs that are
highly bound to plasma proteins are not subject
to significant removal during CRRT because the
molecular weight of drug-protein complexes
usually hinders passage of the complex across
the filter. The fraction of unbound drug may
change during renal failure, however, thus
altering the likelihood of drug removal. If
the unbound fraction increases, more drug
clearance may occur. If the unbound fraction
becomes less, there is likely to be less drug
removal during CRRT.
A useful tool to predict the likelihood of a drug
to cross the hemofilter membrane is the sieving
coefficient. This term is defined as the ratio of
drug concentration in the ultrafiltrate to the
prefilter plasma water concentration of the drug.
If the sieving coefficient is close to 1.0, the drug
has relatively free passage across the filter. The
following table presents sieving coefficient data
from in vitro and in vivo evaluations.

The specific CRRT technique employed will


influence the ultrafiltration rate and hence, the
potential rate of drug removal. When CRRT
relies solely on spontaneous blood flow without
extracorporeal blood pumping, an ultrafiltration
rate of 10-15 mL/min is anticipated. The
addition of blood pumps and continuous
dialysis may increase the ultrafiltration rate to 50
mL/min. Higher rates of ultrafiltration may lead
to greater drug removal with a need for more

frequent replacement doses. Drug removal can


be determined by collection of the total volume
of dialysate/ultrafiltrate and measurement of the
concentration of drug in the effluent.
Because of the multiple techniques employed
in CRRT, the variability in individual patient
circumstances, and the lack of in vivo data, the
tables in this guide do not contain information
on drug removal during CRRT. Once again, the
reader is referred to the primary literature for
assistance with the dosing of specific drugs.
PLASMAPHERESIS
Plasmapheresis is another special consideration
in which drug removal from plasma may be of
concern. This technique is used for the treatment
of certain immunologic, infectious, and
metabolic diseases, as well as for the removal of
toxins that cannot be removed by hemodialysis
or peritoneal dialysis. Plasmapheresis removes
plasma from the patient with replacement
by crystalloid or colloid solutions. Solutes
such as drug molecules that are present in
the plasma may be removed from the patient.
Unfortunately, little is known about the specific
pharmacokinetic effects of plasmapheresis.
The procedure may be most likely to remove
substances that are lipophilic, that are highly
protein-bound, and that have a small volume of
distribution. The reader is referred to reference 5.
SUMMARY
Drug dialyzability is determined by a complex
interaction of many factors, including the
characteristics of the drug and the technical
SEE DISCLAIMER REGARDING USE OF THIS GUIDE

aspects of the dialysis system. Published


studies on drug dialyzability should specify the
conditions that pertain during dialysis. Results
from these studies should be applied with
caution to other dialysis conditions.

About This Guide


These guidelines are designed to provide
extensive, easy-to-read information regarding
the dialyzability of drugs. Numerous literature
sources have been used in preparing the
guidelines. For many drugs, including newlyapproved medications, no studies have been
done to determine the effect of dialysis on drug
removal. In some cases, the available data may
conflict. Conditions of dialysis used in published
studies may not necessarily reflect current
dialysis procedures and technology. Variations
in the duration of dialysis, flow rates, dialysis
membranes, and whether peritoneal dialysis is
continuous or intermittent will all affect drug
removal. This educational review will distinguish
between conventional hemodialysis and high
permeability (often called high-flux) hemodialysis
where such data are available. However,
the review does not contain information on
drug dialyzability with CRRT (See Special
Considerations, page 8) or with plasmapheresis.
For additional information on specific drugs, the
reader should consult the primary literature.
A designation of Yes in the Hemodialysis
and Peritoneal Dialysis columns indicates that
dialysis enhances plasma clearance by 30% or
more. Supplemental dosing may be required
or dosing after dialysis should be considered.

I ABOUT THIS GUIDE

No indicates that dialysis does not have a


clinically important effect on plasma clearance.
Supplemental dosing is usually not required. As
a general principle, usual methods of continuous
ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) provide
relatively low drug clearances during any given
dialysate exchange. However, cumulative drug
removal may require dosage supplementation
at appropriate intervals. Relatively little research
has examined peritoneal drug clearance in
PD techniques that utilize automated systems
employing large volumes of short dwells at
night, often accompanied by one or more longer
daytime dwells (APD). Similarly, little data exists
on the effects of tidal peritoneal dialysis on drug
clearance. A few studies have confirmed that
clearance of some drugs is increased by APD
due to the increased drug concentration gradient
between blood and dialysate. Increased drug
dialyzability may occur with increased peritoneal
dialysate flow rates or in the presence of
peritonitis. A designation of U indicates that no
dialysis studies have been published, but that the
author of this guide has concluded that significant
drug removal during dialysis is unlikely based
upon the physicochemical characteristics of
the drug, which are primarily a high degree of
protein binding, a large molecular weight, or a
large volume of distribution. A designation of
L indicates that no published data exist on the
removal of the drug during high permeability
dialysis. However, the author has extrapolated
data from studies using conventional dialysis to
conclude that significant drug removal is likely
to occur during high permeability dialysis. A
designation of ND indicates that no data are
15

available on drug dialyzability. In some cases, the


literature reports the use of a high permeability, or
high-flux, dialysis membrane, however the type
of membrane is not specified. A designation of
NS indicates membrane type is not specified.
