    ATX: & nbsp

    C.02.C.A.06   Urapidil

    C.02.C.A   Alpha-blockers

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Urapidil has a central and peripheral mechanism of action. Blocks postsynaptic alpha1-adrenoceptors, thereby reducing the overall peripheral vascular resistance (OPSS).

    Regulates the central mechanism of maintaining vascular tone by stimulating serotonin 5-HT1Areceptors of the vasomotor center (prevents reflex increase in the tone of the sympathetic nervous system).Heart rate (heart rate), cardiac output does not change. Low cardiac output may be increased by lowering the OPSS.

    Stimulates presynaptic alpha2-adrenoceptors.

    Reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP), does not cause reflex tachycardia.

    Reduces pre- and postnagruzku on the heart, increases the efficiency of cardiac contraction, so. (in the absence of arrhythmia) increases the reduced minute volume of the heart.

    Does not affect the parameters of carbohydrate metabolism, the exchange of uric acid and does not cause fluid retention in the body.

    Pharmacokinetics:

    After ingestion of 80-90% of urapidil absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. The connection with plasma proteins is approximately 80%, and the volume of distribution is 0.77 l / kg body weight.

    The maximum concentration in the blood plasma is reached 4-6 hours after taking the drug inside; half-life (T1/2) is about 4.7 hours (3.3-7.6 hours).

    Metabolized mainly in the liver. The main metabolite is the hydroxylated derivative (in the 4-position of the benzene ring), which practically does not possess antihypertensive activity.O-demethylated metabolite is formed in very small amounts and is almost as active as urapidil.

    50-70% of urapidil and its metabolites (15% in the form of active substance) is excreted by the kidneys, the rest is excreted through the intestines in the form of metabolites (mainly in the form of inactive nhydroxylated urapidil).

    In the elderly and in patients with severe hepatic and / or renal failure, the volume of distribution and clearance is reduced, and T1/2 increased.

    Penetrates through the blood-brain and placental barrier.

    The relative bioavailability of prolonged-action capsules, compared with the solution of urapidil for oral administration, is 92 (83-103)%.

    Indications:

    Arterial hypertension of severe degree (as part of combination therapy).

    Contraindications:

    Hypersensitivity to the active substance and other components of the drug; age under 18 years (efficacy and safety not established), pregnancy, lactation.

    Fructose intolerance and glucose / galactose absorption disorder or sugar / isomaltase deficiency.

    Carefully:

    Dysfunction of the liver, patients with severe and moderate severity of kidney failure; chronic heart failure,stenosis of the aortic and mitral valve; pulmonary embolism; violation of myocardial contractility due to cardiac disease (for example, tamponade, chronic pericarditis), with simultaneous use with cimetidine, the elderly.

    Pregnancy and lactation:

    Ehrantil® should not be used during pregnancy and during breastfeeding due to the lack of clinical data on its use.

    Dosing and Administration:

    Inside, morning and evening, while eating, squeezed a little water.

    The dose of the drug must be selected individually.

    1 capsule 30 mg of Ehrrantil® 2 times a day. If necessary, the dose of Egrantil® can be increased to 120 mg (2 capsules 30 mg or 1 capsule 60 mg 2 times a day).

    The maximum daily dose is 180 mg divided into two doses.

    Use in elderly patients, as well as patients with impaired liver function and / or severe and moderate severity of renal insufficiency

    When using Egrantil® in this category of patients, a dose reduction may be required depending on blood pressure and laboratory parameters of liver and / or kidney function.

    Side effects:

    The frequency of adverse reactions was determined according to the classification of the World Health Organization: very often (> 1:10), often (> 1: 100, <1:10), infrequently (> 1: 1000, <1: 100), rarely (> 1: 10000, <1: 1000), very rarely (<1: 10000), the frequency is unknown (can not be calculated based on available data).

    * In very rare cases thrombocytopenia was observed during the use of the drug Ebrantil®, although a causal relationship with the treatment administered by the preparation through, for example, immunological tests is not established.

    If any of the side effects listed in the manual are aggravated, or if you notice any other side effects not listed in the instructions, tell your doctor.

    Overdose:

    Symptoms: marked decrease in blood pressure, dizziness, increased fatigue, retardation, collapse.

    Treatment: During the first 4 hours after an overdose, it is possible to rinse the stomach and use activated charcoal.

    If there is a pronounced decrease in blood pressure, the patient should be given a horizontal position, raise the legs, carry out measures to increase the volume of circulating blood (BCC); symptomatic therapy.

    Interaction:

    The antihypertensive effect of urapidil can be enhanced by co-administration withalpha-adrenoblockers, vasodilators or other antihypertensive agents, as well as in conditions associated with a decrease in the volume of fluid in the body (eg, diarrhea, vomiting) and with the intake of ethanol (alcohol).

    With simultaneous administration of cimetidine, the maximum concentration of urapidil in the blood plasma can increase by 15%.

    It is not recommended to use with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, since data on such a combination is not enough.

    Special instructions:

    There are cases of development of prolonged erection and priapism against the background of therapy with alphaa1adrenoblockers. If the erection persists for more than 4 hours, you should immediately seek medical help. If priapism therapy has not been carried out immediately, it can lead to damage to the tissues of the penis and an irreversible loss of potency.

    Effect on the ability to drive transp. cf. and fur:

    During the period of therapy with the drug Egrantil®, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities requiring increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.

    This is especially true at the beginning of treatment, with an increase in the dose of the drug or the replacement of the drug, as well as the use of alcohol during the treatment period.
