抄録

We investigated false positive interactions of an aldose reductase inhibitor (Epalrestat) in the urinary ketone body and leukocyte tests, and investigated the mechanisms of these interactions. Four healthy volunteers were administered 50 mg of Epalrestat (M0) three times per day. Urine was collected before and after drug administration. False positive interactions were observed in the urinary ketone body and leukocyte tests. Similar results were obtained with the addition of M0, mono, and di-hydroxy derivatives, and a conjugated type of di-hydroxy derivative. Maximum absorption spectra of these derivatives (400 nm) were completely shifted to 500 nm under alkaline pH conditions. These shifts of spectra caused false positive results in the urinary ketone body test. Furthermore, these derivatives reacted with the diazo-compounds contained in the leukocyte test. Interaction with ketone bodies was confirmed by the boiling test and by the addition of iodoacetic acid to the urinary test strip. The ketone body test is mainly used for the diagnosis of the diabetic ketoacidosis. Thus, the possibility of false positive results with this agent in diabetic patients must be considered.
