Biological Activity
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion Peak serum phosphate concentration is reached in 4h. Inorganic phosphate produced is eliminated in the urine. There may be a very small amount of glycerophosphate excreted in the urine unchanged. Metabolism / Metabolites Glycerophosphate is hydrolyzed to form inorganic phosphate. The extent of this reaction is dependent on serum alkaline phosphatase activity. Biological Half-Life Inorganic phosphate has a half-life of elimination of 2.06h. |

| Additional Infomation |
Sodium glycerophosphate is one of several glycerophosphate salts. It is used clinically to treat or prevent low phosphate levels. Glycerophosphate is hydrolyzed to inorganic phosphate and glycerol in the body. The extent of this reaction is dependent on the activity of serum alkaline phosphatases. Sodium Glycerophosphate is the sodium salt form of an organic phosphate compound that provides phosphate for nutritional purposes. In addition, sodium glycerophosphate can be used as a phosphate diluting agent upon internal contamination with the beta-emiting radioisotope phosphate P 32 (P-32) that competes with P-32 for absorption. As sodium glycerophosphate is administered in high amounts, the absorption of P-32 is prevented or minimalized. See also: sodium glycerophosphate anhydrous (annotation moved to). Drug Indication Sodium glycerophosphate is indicated for use as a source of phosphate in total parenteral nutrition. It is used in combination with amino acids, dextrose, lipid emulsions, and other electrolytes. FDA Label Mechanism of Action Sodium glycerophosphate acts as a donor of inorganic phosphate. See [DB09413] for a description of phosphate's role in the body. Pharmacodynamics Glycerophosphate acts as a source of inorganic phosphate through hydrolysis. |
