The pharmacokinetics of the new short-acting opioid remifentanil (GI87084B) in healthy adult male volunteers.
Anesthesiology. 1993; (5): 881-92
Remifentanil (GI87084B) is a new short-acting opioid with a unique ester structure. Metabolism of remifentanil by ester hydrolysis results in very rapid elimination. The aim of this study was to characterize in detail the pharmacokinetic profile of remifentanil in healthy male volunteers.
