Acutrim Indicazione
Per il trattamento della congestione nasale, il controllo dell'incontinenza urinaria, priapismo e obesità.
Acutrim Farmacologia
Fenilpropanolamina (PPA), un agente simpaticomimetico strutturalmente simile alla pseudoefedrina, è usato per curare la congestione nasale. Fenilpropanolamina si trova in formulazioni soppressore dell'appetito e con guaifenesinin nella tosse-raffreddore formulazioni. Nel 2000, la FDA ha chiesto che tutte le aziende farmaceutiche interrompere la commercializzazione di prodotti contenenti fenilpropanolamina, a causa di un aumentato rischio di ictus emorragico in donne che hanno utilizzato fenilpropanolamina.
Acutrim Assorbimento
Ridotta biodisponibilità (circa 38%) dal tratto gastrointestinale a causa del metabolismo di primo passaggio da monoamino-ossidasi nello stomaco e fegato.
Acutrim Tossicita
Può indurre extrasistoli ventricolari e brevi parossismi di tachicardia ventricolare, una sensazione di pienezza nella testa e formicolio alle estremità; LD50 = 1490mg/kg (per via orale nel ratto)
