Pharmacodynamics.
Aphobazole is a selective non-benzodiazepine anxiolytic.
Acting on sigma-1 receptors in nerve cells in the brain, Aphobasol stabilizes GABA/ benzodiazepine receptors and restores their sensitivity to endogenous mediators of inhibition. Aphobazole also increases the bioenergetic potential of neurons and has a neuroprotective effect: it restores and protects nerve cells.
The action of the drug is mainly realized as a combination of anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) and mild stimulating (activating) effects.
Aphobazole reduces or eliminates feelings of anxiety (anxiety, misgivings, apprehension), irritability, tension (jitteriness, tearfulness, anxiety, inability to relax, insomnia, fear), depressed mood, somatic anxiety manifestations (muscular, sensory, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal symptoms), autonomic disturbances (dry mouth, sweating, dizziness), cognitive disturbances (difficulty concentrating, impaired memory), including those resulting from stressors.including those arising from stress disorders (adaptation disorders).
The drug is especially indicated for people with predominantly asthenic personality traits such as anxious mistrust, insecurity, increased vulnerability and emotional lability, propensity to have emotional stress reactions.
The effect of the drug develops on the 5th-7th day of treatment. The maximum effect is reached by the end of the 4th week of treatment and lasts for an average of 1-2 weeks after the end of treatment.
Aphobazole does not cause muscle weakness, drowsiness and has no negative effect on concentration and memory. Its use is not addictive, does not cause drug dependence and does not lead to withdrawal syndrome.
Pharmacokinetics.
Aphobazole is well and quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration.
The maximum plasma concentration of the drug (Cmax) is 0.130+0.073 µg/mL; time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax) is 0.85+0.13 h.
Metabolism: Afobazole is subject to a “first pass effect” through the liver; the main directions of metabolism are hydroxylation by the aromatic ring of the benzimidazole cycle and oxidation by the morpholine fragment.
Aphobazole is intensely distributed to well vascularized organs and is characterized by rapid transfer from the central pool (blood plasma) to the peripheral pool (highly vascularized organs and tissues).
The half-life of Aphobazole when taken orally is 0.82+0.54 hours. Short half-life is due to intensive biotransformation of the drug and rapid distribution from plasma to organs and tissues. The drug is excreted mainly as metabolites and partially unchanged in the urine and feces.
