Within 7 to 14 seconds after IV administration into antecubital vein, fluorescein usually appears in the central artery of the eye. Within a few minutes of IV administration of fluorescein sodium, a yellowish discoloration of the skin occurs, which begins to fade after 6 to 12 hours of dosing. Various estimates of volume of distribution indicate that fluorescein distributes well into interstitial space (0.5 L/ kg).

Fluorescein and its metabolites are mainly eliminated via renal excretion. After IV administration, the urine remains slightly fluorescent for 24 to 36 hours. A renal clearance of 1.75 mL/min/kg and a hepatic clearance (due to conjugation) of 1.50 mL/min/kg have been estimated. The systemic clearance of fluorescein was essentially complete by 48 to 72 hours after administration of 500 mg fluorescein.

The permeability of the blood-retinal and blood-aqueous barriers to fluorescein and the rate of aqueous flow can be estimated by measurements of fluorescein in the vitreous, aqueous, and plasma after systemic administration. Fluorescein is commonly measured by fluorescence, but fluorescein glucuronide, a metabolite of fluorescein, also fluoresces. To assess the influence of fluorescein glucuronide on the quantitation of fluorescein by fluorescence, we studied the pharmacokinetics of fluorescein and fluorescein glucuronide for 38 hr in the plasma of five normal subjects given 14 mg/kg of sodium fluorescein intravenously. The plasma and the plasma ultrafiltrate were measured by fluorescence and by high performance liquid chromatography. In our fluorophotometer, fluorescein glucuronide was 0.124 times as fluorescent as fluorescein. Fluorescein was rapidly converted to fluorescein glucuronide, and within 10 min the concentration of unbound fluorescein glucuronide exceeded that of unbound fluorescein. The terminal half-lives of fluorescein and fluorescein glucuronide in the plasma ultrafiltrate were 23.5 and 264 min, respectively, so that fluorescein glucuronide contributed almost all of the plasma fluorescence after 4-5 hr. Because fluorescein glucuronide was less bound in the plasma than fluorescein, the ratio of the fluorescence of the plasma ultrafiltrate to that of the plasma increased with time. The greatest proportion of the total fluorescein available to penetrate into the ocular compartments occurred shortly after injection. ...

Fluorescein undergoes rapid metabolism to fluorescein monoglucuronide. After IV administration of fluorescein sodium (14 mg/kg) to 7 healthy subjects, approximately 80% of fluorescein in plasma was converted to glucuronide conjugate after a period of 1 hour post dose, indicating relatively rapid conjugation.

Fluorescein sodium is used extensively as a diagnostic tool in the field of ophthalmology. Fluorescein is a fluorescent compound or fluorophore having a maximum absorbance of 494 m and an emission maximum of 521 nm. The yellowish-green fluorescence of the compound can be used to demarcate the vascular area under observation, distinguishing it from adjacent areas. It is applied topically in the form of a drop or it can be injected intravenously to produce a fluorescein angiogram. Topical fluorescein is a useful tool in the diagnosis of corneal abrasions, corneal ulcers, herpetic corneal infections, and dry eye. Fluorescein angiography is used to diagnose and categorize macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, inflammatory intraocular conditions, and intraocular tumors.
Fluorescein sodium responds to electromagnetic radiation and light between the wavelengths of 465-490 nm and fluoresces, i.e., emits light at wavelengths of 520-530 nm. Thus, the hydrocarbon is excited by blue light and emits light that appears yellowish-green. Following intravenous injection of fluorescein sodium in an aqueous solution, the unbound fraction of the fluorescein can be excited with a blue light flash from a fundus camera as it circulates through the ocular vasculature, and the yellowish green fluorescence of the dye is captured by the camera. In the fundus, the fluorescence of the dye demarcates the retinal and/or choroidal vasculature under observation, distinguishing it from adjacent areas/structures. /Fluorescein sodium/
