Mesaton, 10 mg/ml 1 ml 10 pcs

PharmacoDynamics

Phenylephrine is an alpha1-adrenergic stimulant that slightly affects the beta-adrenoceptors of the heart; it is not a catecholamine because it contains only one hydroxyl group in the aromatic core. Causes narrowing of the arterioles and an increase in arterial pressure (BP) (with possible reflex bradycardia), but is more prolonged because it is less prone to the action of catechol()-methyltransferase.

It does not cause an increase in the minute blood volume.

After intravenous administration, the action of the drug develops immediately and lasts for 5-20 minutes. When administered subcutaneously and intramuscularly the action of the drug starts 10-15 min and lasts 1-2 hours after injection.

Pharmacokinetics

After intramuscular administration the drug is quickly absorbed into the systemic blood flow. Volume of distribution after single administration is 340 l. Binding to plasma proteins is low. It is almost completely metabolized in the liver by monoaminoxidase (without catechol()-methyltransferase). The terminal elimination half-life is about 3 hours. It is excreted by the kidneys as metabolites.

Indications

Acute arterial hypotension;

Vascular insufficiency in overdose of vasodilators;

Shock (traumatic, toxic);

As a vasoconstrictor during local anesthesia.

Active ingredient

Phenylephrine

Composition

Active ingredient:

Phenylephrine hydrochloride – 10 mg

Excipients:

Glycerol (distilled glycerin) – 60 mg;

water for injection – up to 1 ml

How to take, the dosage

Mesaton is administered intravenously, subcutaneously or intramuscularly.

In case of collapse, the single dose when administered intravenously is 0.1-0.5 ml of 1% solution of Mesaton.

In intravenous administration the single dose is diluted in 20 ml of 5% dextrose (glucose) solution or 0.9% sodium chloride solution and slowly injected by trickle. If necessary (if systolic BP decreases to 70-80 mmHg), the injection is repeated. The interval between repeated intravenous injections of the drug shall be at least 15 minutes.

The drug can be administered intravenously by drop infusion for which 1 ml of 1% solution of Mesaton is diluted in 250-500 ml of 5% dextrose (glucose) solution. The initial infusion rate is 180 micrograms per minute; later the infusion rate is reduced to 30-60 micrograms per minute.

In intramuscular and subcutaneous administration, the single dose is 0.3-1.0 ml of 1% Mesaton solution

In local anesthesia they add 0.3-0.5 ml of 1% solution of Mesaton per 10 ml of anesthetic solution.

After prolonged intravenous infusion, the drug dose should be reduced gradually to prevent development of “withdrawal” syndrome (repeated BP reduction). The highest dose with intramuscular and subcutaneous administration: single dose – 10 mg, daily – 50 mg. The highest dose with intravenous injection: single dose – 5 mg, daily – 25 mg.

Interaction

Phenylephrine reduces the antihypertensive effect of diuretics and hypotensive agents, beta-adrenoblockers (risk of arterial hypertension and cardiovascular disorders).

Neuroleptics, phenothiazide derivatives decrease the hypertensive effect of the drug. MAO inhibitors, oxytocin, ergot alkaloids, tricyclic antidepressants, methylphenidate, adrenomimetics increase the pressor effect and arrhythmogenic effect of phenylephrine.

Beta-adrenoblockers decrease the cardiac stimulatory activity of the drug.

The use of the drug against prior use of reserpine may cause development of a hypertensive crisis due to depletion of catecholamine stores in adrenergic endings and increased sensitivity to adrenomimetics.

Inhaled anesthetics (including chloroform, enflurane, halothane, isoflurane, methoxyflurane) increase the risk of severe atrial and ventricular arrhythmias (including ventricular fibrillation) because they dramatically increase myocardial sensitivity to sympathomimetics. Ergometrine, ergotamine, methylergometrine, oxytocin, doxapram increase the severity of the vasoconstrictor effect.

Phenylephrine decreases the antianginal effect of nitrates, which in turn may decrease the pressor effect of Mesaton@ and the risk of arterial hypotension (simultaneous use is permitted depending on achieving the desired therapeutic effect).

The thyroid hormones mutually increase drug efficacy and associated risk of coronary artery disease (especially in coronary atherosclerosis).

The presorptive effect of phenylephrine hydrochloride is increased in patients receiving tricyclic antidepressants.

Phenylephrine when used concomitantly with digoxin or other cardiac glycosides increases the risk of cardiac rhythm disturbances and myocardial infarction.

The use of Mesaton during labor to correct arterial hypotension against the background of the use of labor-promoting agents (vasopressin, ergotamine, ergometrine, methylergometrine) may cause persistent BP increase in the postpartum period.

Special Instructions

The electrocardiogram, BP, minute blood volume, blood flow in the extremities and at the injection site should be monitored during treatment.

In patients with arterial hypertension in case of drug-induced collapse, it is sufficient to maintain systolic BP at 30-40 mm Hg lower than normal. A sharp increase in BP, marked bradycardia or tachycardia, persistent cardiac rhythm disturbances require treatment discontinuation.

The correction of hypovolemia, hypoxia, acidosis and hypercapnia is mandatory before or during shock therapy.

The drug is used with caution in arterial hypertension in the small circle of the circulation, hypovolemia, ventricular arrhythmia.

The number of adrenoreceptors sensitive to phenylephrine decreases in the elderly.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles, machinery During treatment, it is necessary to refrain from driving vehicles and engaging in potentially dangerous activities requiring increased concentration and rapid psychomotor reactions.
