Half-Life About 8 hours in healthy adults. Mean terminal half-life was 7.7 hours in healthy non-geriatric subjects and 12.3 hours in elderly patients after oral dosing (PMID: 2253653), and 10.6 to 68.1 hours in patients with renal impairment, correlating with creatinine clearance (PMID: 2253654). More than 90 percent of an intravenous dose is recovered unchanged in urine within 48 hours, and absolute oral bioavailability was 75 percent in healthy volunteers (PMID: 6519128). ## Administration Routes Oral Intravenous infusion Dosage Calculator Calculate exact dosing for Oxiracetam. https://www.bodyhackguide.co/tools/dosage Dosing data for Oxiracetam is being researched. Check the compound page (https://www.bodyhackguide.co/compound/oxiracetam) for the latest information. ## Side Effects & Safety In a 289-patient, 12-week, placebo-controlled trial, 31 patients on oxiracetam and 27 on placebo reported minor unwanted effects, and routine laboratory examinations showed no clinically or statistically significant changes (PMID: 2693996). In a 65-patient trial, two patients on oxiracetam were withdrawn for poor tolerability (PMID: 1414239). A one-year follow-up study in mild to moderate dementia reported no severe adverse events and no changes in routine laboratory tests (PMID: 1603291). In the 590-patient phase 3 traumatic brain injury trial, the proportion of serious adverse events did not differ between L-oxiracetam, oxiracetam and placebo (PMID: 41381424). In dogs given acute and 13-week repeated oral dosing, toxicity presented mainly as loose stools, with a no-observed-adverse-effect level proposed at 100 mg/kg (PMID: 30351213). Contraindications Renal impairment is the main pharmacokinetic caution: oxiracetam is excreted essentially unchanged by the kidney and its terminal half-life rose from about 8 hours to as much as 68 hours as creatinine clearance fell (PMID: 2253654; PMID: 6519128). A pilot study found that concurrent carbamazepine or valproic acid shortened the oxiracetam half-life, although oxiracetam did not alter antiepileptic drug serum concentrations (PMID: 2108837). No human pregnancy or lactation safety data have been published; in pregnant rats, radiolabeled oxiracetam crossed the placenta into fetal tissue reversibly and to a limited extent (PMID: 1499599).
