Abstract

The absorption kinetics of intranasal salmon calcitonin were assessed in 4 normal subjects and 9 patients with Klinefelter's syndrome. After administration, absorption occurred within 5 minutes. There was a highly significant correlation between the amount administered and the amount absorbed (r = -0.83, P less than 0.0005).
