Thông tin tư vấn bệnh nhân
Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or UV light; wear protective clothing and use sunscreen when going outdoors. Maintain adequate fluid intake during treatment.
Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor renal (before treatment initiation and periodically during therapy) and hepatic function; CBC (particularly in elderly). Assess for signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity reactions, worsening acute intolerance syndrome, and dermatologic toxicity.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, tachypnoea, hyperpnoea, tinnitus, neurologic symptoms (e.g. headache, dizziness, confusion, seizures). Severe intoxication may lead to electrolyte and blood pH imbalance, and may also cause damage to other organs (e.g. renal and liver). Management: Supportive treatment. May employ gastrointestinal tract decontamination to prevent further absorption. Administer appropriate IV therapy and maintain adequate renal function to correct fluid and electrolyte imbalance.
Tương tác
Increased risk of myelosuppression with azathioprine, tioguanine, and mercaptopurine. Increased risk of bleeding with LMWH or heparinoids. Increased prothrombin time with warfarin. Increased risk of nephrotoxicity with nephrotoxic drugs (e.g. NSAIDs). May increase the risk of developing Reye's syndrome when coadministered with varicella vaccine; avoid administration within 6 weeks of vaccination.

Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Olsalazine is a mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid) derivative. The exact mechanism of action of mesalazine has not been fully elucidated; however, it appears to exert its anti-inflammatory effect locally in the gastrointestinal tract. Mesalazine may reduce inflammation by inhibiting cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways in the colon, thereby blocking the mucosal production of arachidonic acid metabolites.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Very little portion is absorbed from the upper gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: Approx 1 hour.
Distribution: Enters breast milk (mesalazine). Plasma protein binding: >99%.
Metabolism: Metabolised mainly in the colon by colonic bacteria into the active drug, mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid); mesalazine undergoes rapid N-acetylation to form N-acetyl-5-aminosalicylic acid.
Excretion: Mainly via faeces; urine (as mesalazine [approx 20%, mainly as N-acetyl-5-aminosalicylic acid]; <1% as olsalazine). Elimination half-life: 54 minutes.
