Quá liều
Symptoms: Headache, nervousness, tremor, seizures, muscle cramps, fatigue, malaise, insomnia, palpitations, tachycardia, arrythmias, hypertension or hypotension, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, somnolence, hyperglycaemia, hypokalaemia, metabolic acidosis, angina, cardiac arrest, death. Management: Supportive and symptomatic treatment. May consider giving cardioselective β-blocker cautiously. Monitor cardiac function and serum K levels.
Tương tác
May cause ECG changes and hypokalaemia with non-K sparing diuretics (e.g. thiazides and loop diuretics). Enhanced hypokalaemic effect with xanthine derivatives and steroids. Increased risk of arrhythmias with halogenated hydrocarbons. May increase the risk of CV system related effects with TCAs or MAOIs. May attenuate the therapeutic effect with β-blockers. May cause additive effects and increase the risk of adverse drug effects with other sympathomimetic agents (e.g. ephedrine).
Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Formoterol, a synthetic sympathomimetic amine, is a long-acting β2-adrenergic receptor agonist (LABA). It stimulates adenyl cyclase, an enzyme that leads to the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic adenosine-3', 5'-monophosphate (cAMP). Increased levels of cAMP results in relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and inhibition of release of proinflammatory mediators, particularly from mast cells.
Onset: Within 3 minutes (dry powder for inhalation).
Duration: Approx 12 hours.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Rapidly absorbed. Time to peak plasma concentration: 1-3 hours.
Distribution: Plasma protein binding: 61-64%.
Metabolism: Extensively metabolised in the liver via direct glucuronidation. Undergoes O-demethylation by the CYP2D6, CYP2C8/9, CYP2C19, and CYP2A6 isoenzymes.
Excretion: Via urine (15-18% as direct glucuronide metabolites, 2-10% as unchanged drug). Terminal elimination half-life: Approx 10 hours.
