Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

Moxonidine is an antihypertensive drug with a central mechanism of action. In the brainstem structures (rostral layer of the lateral ventricles), moxonidine selectively stimulates imidazoline-sensitive receptors that take part in the tonic and reflex regulation of the sympathetic nervous system. Stimulation of imidazoline receptors reduces peripheral sympathetic activity and blood pressure (BP).

Moxonidine differs from other sympatholytic antihypertensive drugs in its lower affinity for α2-adrenergic receptors, which explains the lower likelihood of developing sedation and dry mouth.

Taking moxonidine leads to a decrease in systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure. Moxonidine improves the insulin sensitivity index by 21% (compared to placebo) in patients with obesity, insulin resistance and moderate hypertension.

Pharmacokinetics

Van suctions:

After oral administration, moxonidine is rapidly and almost completely absorbed into the

upper parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Absolute bioavailability is approximately 88%. Time to reach maximum concentration -; about 1 hour. Food intake does not affect the pharmacokinetics of the drug.

Distribution

The connection with blood plasma proteins is 7.2%.

Metabol Meas.

The main metabolite is; dehydrogenated moxonidine. Pharmacodynamic activity of dehydrogenated moxonidine -; about 10% compared to moxonidine.

Output

The half-life (T1/2) of moxonidine and metabolite is 2.5 and 5 hours, respectively. Within 24 hours, over 90% of moxonidine is excreted by the kidneys (about 78

% unchanged and 13% in the form of dehydri-romoxonidine, other metabolites in the urine do not exceed 8% of the dose taken). Less than 1% of the dose is excreted through the intestines.

Pharmacokinetics in patients with arterial hypertension:

Compared with healthy volunteers, patients with arterial hypertension show no changes in the pharmacokinetics of moxonidine.

Farmak okin etika in old age

Clinically insignificant changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters of moxonidine were noted in elderly patients, probably due to a decrease in the intensity of its metabolism and/or slightly higher bioavailability.

Farmak okinetics in children

Moxonidine is not recommended for use in patients under 18 years of age, and therefore pharmacokinetic studies have not been conducted in this group.

Pharmacokinetics for renal failure

Moxonidine excretion is significantly correlated with creatinine clearance (CC). In patients with moderate renal failure (creatinine clearance in the range of 30-60 ml/min), steady-state plasma concentrations and final T1/2 are approximately 2 and l.5 times higher than in patients with normal renal function (creatinine clearance more than 90 ml/min). min.).

In patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min.), steady-state plasma concentrations and final T1/2 are 3 times higher than in patients with normal renal function. The administration of multiple doses of moxonidine leads to predictable accumulation in the body of patients with moderate and severe renal failure. In patients with end-stage renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 10 ml/min) on hemodialysis, steady-state plasma concentrations and final T1/2 are 6 and 4 times higher, respectively, than in patients with normal renal function. In all groups, the maximum concentration of moxonidine in blood plasma was 1.5 - 2 times higher. U

For patients with impaired renal function, the dosage should be adjusted individually. Moxonidine is excreted to a small extent during hemodialysis.

Indications for use

Arterial hypertension.

Contraindications

- hypersensitivity to the active substance and other components of the drug;

— sick sinus syndrome;

— severe bradycardia (resting heart rate less than 50 beats/min);

— atrioventricular block II and III degrees;

- severe heart rhythm disturbances;

— acute and chronic heart failure (III-IV functional class according to the NYHA classification);

- simultaneous use with tricyclic antidepressants (see section

“Interaction with other drugs”);

- severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min);

- hemodialysis;

- lactation period;

- hereditary lactose intolerance, lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption;

— age over 75 years;

- age under 18 years (due to the lack of data on safety and effectiveness).

Particular caution should be exercised when using moxonidine in patients with

atrioventricular block of the first degree (risk of developing bradycardia); severe coronary artery disease, severe coronary heart disease or unstable angina (insufficient experience), chronic heart failure, severe liver failure, with impaired renal function (creatinine clearance more than 30 ml/min).

Pregnancy

There are no clinical data on the use of Moxonidine in pregnant women.

In animal studies, the embryotoxic effect of the drug was established. Moxonidine should be prescribed to pregnant women only after a careful assessment of the risk-benefit ratio, when the benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

Lactation period

Moxonidine passes into breast milk and should therefore not be given during breastfeeding. If it is necessary to use Moxonidine during lactation, breastfeeding should be stopped.

Directions for use and doses

Inside, regardless of food intake. In most cases, the initial dose of the drug

Moxonidine is 0.2 mg per day. The maximum single dose is 0.4 mg. The maximum daily dose, which should be divided into 2 doses, is 0.6 mg. Individual adjustment of the daily dose is necessary depending on the patient’s tolerance to the therapy. No dose adjustment is required for patients with hepatic impairment. The starting dose for patients with moderate or severe renal impairment is 0.2 mg/day. If necessary and if well tolerated, the daily dose can be increased to a maximum of 0.4 mg.

Side effect

The frequency of side effects listed below was determined accordingly

the following: very often (>1/10); often (>1/100, <1/10); uncommon (>1/1000, <1/100); including individual messages.

From the central nervous system:

Common: headache*, dizziness (vertigo), drowsiness. Uncommon: fainting*.

From the cardiovascular system:

Uncommon: marked decrease in blood pressure, orthostatic hypotension*, bradycardia.

From the gastrointestinal tract:

Very common: dry mouth. Common: diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia.

From the skin and subcutaneous tissues: Often: skin rash, itching.

Uncommon: angioedema.

Mental disorders:

Common: insomnia. Uncommon: nervousness.

Hearing and labyrinthine disorders: Uncommon: ringing in the ears.

Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders: Common: back pain.

Uncommon: neck pain.

General disorders and disorders at the injection site:

Often: asthenia.

Uncommon: peripheral edema.

(* - frequency comparable to placebo).

Overdose

There have been several reports of non-fatal overdoses when

Doses up to 19.6 mg were used simultaneously.

Symptoms:

headache, sedation, marked decrease in blood pressure, dizziness, asthenia, bradycardia, dry oral mucosa, vomiting, fatigue, pain in the epigastric region, respiratory depression and impaired consciousness. In addition, short-term increases in blood pressure, tachycardia and hyperglycemia are also possible, as shown in several high-dose animal studies.

Treatment

There is no specific antidote. In the case of a pronounced decrease in blood pressure, it may be necessary to restore the volume of circulating blood by introducing fluid and dopamine (injection).

Bradycardia can be stopped with atropine (injection).

In severe cases of overdose, it is recommended to carefully monitor disturbances of consciousness and avoid respiratory depression.

Alpha-adrenergic antagonists may reduce or eliminate the paradoxical hypertensive effects of moxonidine overdose.

Moxonidine is excreted to a small extent during hemodialysis.

Interaction with other drugs

The combined use of moxonidine with other antihypertensive drugs leads to an additive effect. Tricyclic antidepressants may reduce the effectiveness of centrally acting antihypertensive drugs, and therefore their use together with moxonidine is not recommended.

Moxonidine may enhance the effect of tricyclic antidepressants, tranquilizers, ethanol, sedatives and hypnotics.

Moxonidine may moderately improve impaired cognitive function in patients receiving lorazepam.

Moxonidine may enhance the sedative effect of benzodiazepine derivatives when administered simultaneously.

Moxonidine is released by tubular secretion. Therefore, its interaction with other drugs released by tubular secretion is not excluded. Beta-blockers increase bradycardia and the severity of negative ino- and dromotropic effects.

special instructions

If it is necessary to cancel beta-blockers and the drug Moxonidine taken simultaneously, first cancel the beta-blockers and only after a few days Moxonidine.

There is currently no evidence that stopping Moxonidine leads to an increase in blood pressure. However, it is not recommended to stop taking Moxonidine suddenly; instead, you should gradually reduce the dose of the drug over two weeks.

Avoid drinking alcohol during treatment.

During treatment, regular monitoring of heart rate and electrocardiography is necessary.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery

The effect of Moxonidine on the ability to drive vehicles or operate machinery has not been studied. However, taking into account the possibility of dizziness and drowsiness, patients should be careful when engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require increased attention, such as driving a vehicle or operating equipment that requires increased concentration.

*Frequency comparable to placebo.

special instructions

During treatment, regular monitoring of blood pressure is necessary.

Post-marketing surveillance has documented cases of AV block of varying severity in patients taking moxonidine. A connection between taking Moxonidine-SZ and slowing AV conduction cannot be completely excluded. Therefore, caution is advised when treating patients likely to develop AV block.

If it is necessary to cancel simultaneously taken beta-blockers and the drug Moxonidine-SZ, first cancel the beta-blockers and only after a few days Moxonidine-SZ. There is currently no evidence that discontinuation of Moxonidine-SZ leads to an increase in blood pressure. However, it is not recommended to stop taking Moxonidine-SZ suddenly; instead, you should gradually reduce the dose of the drug over 2 weeks.

Elderly patients may have an increased risk of developing cardiovascular complications due to the use of antihypertensive drugs, therefore therapy with Moxonidine-SZ should be started with a minimum dose.
Effect on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery.
No studies have been conducted on the effect of the drug on the ability to drive a car or operate machinery. There have been reports of drowsiness and dizziness during treatment with moxonidine, which should be taken into account when performing the above actions.
