[Quantitative determination of pemoline in serum and urine after ingestion of therapeutic doses (author's transl)].

Serum and urine 5-phenyl-2-imino-4-oxazolidone (pemoline, Tradon) levels have been determined in normal subjects after therapeutic doses (40 mg). Peak levels in serum were reached within 4-6 h (1.1-1.5 mg/1). The half-life was 16-18 h. After the oral administration of 40 mg of pemoline 35-50% of the dose was excreted in urine within 32 h.
