pharmachologic effect

A laxative, the active ingredients of the drug are sodium picosulfate, which stimulates a laxative effect and acts in the colon, and magnesium citrate, which exhibits a laxative effect due to the osmotic effects of retaining moisture in the colon.

The effect of the drug is manifested in a strong flushing effect, which is combined with the effect of stimulating intestinal motility, which determines its use for cleaning the intestines before radiographic examinations, colonoscopy or surgical procedures.

Story

In 2014, the drug for preparing the colon for research and surgery, Picoprep (this is the Russian name of the drug), received registration in Russia. Trade names Pico-Salax or Picolax (Ferring) is a combination drug consisting of picosulfate sodium, magnesium oxide, citric acid and allows the use of small volumes of liquid to cleanse the intestines (up to 2.5 liters in two doses). This drug has been known and used in the UK and Australia for more than 20 years, and has been used in Canada since 2004. In the USA, it received approval for use from the FDA (Food and Drug Agency) and was distributed under the brand name Prepopic.

Contraindications to the use of Picoprep

  • Congestive heart failure,
  • impaired gastric emptying, gastrointestinal ulcers, toxic colitis, toxic megacolon, intestinal obstruction, nausea and vomiting, acute abdominal pathologies requiring surgical intervention, such as acute appendicitis, as well as diagnosed or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction or perforation,
  • renal failure (due to the accumulation of magnesium in the blood plasma),
  • children's age up to 1 year.

The drug should be used with extreme caution in patients who have recently undergone surgical procedures on the gastrointestinal tract, as well as in patients with impaired renal function, heart disease or inflammatory bowel disease. The drug should be used with caution in patients taking drugs that may affect fluid and/or electrolyte balance. for example, diuretics, corticosteroids, lithium. Since Picoprep may alter the absorption of drugs intended for regular oral administration, it should be used with caution in such cases; Thus, there have been isolated reports of convulsive attacks in patients taking antiepileptic drugs, which previously allowed them to successfully control the course of epilepsy. Insufficient oral intake of water and electrolytes can lead to clinically significant deficiency, especially in weakened patients. Therefore, elderly and debilitated patients, as well as patients at risk of developing hypokalemia, should be under medical supervision. Patients with signs or symptoms of hyponatremia may require rapid corrective measures to restore fluid and electrolyte balance. A sufficient amount of fluid should be consumed. The bowel cleanse period should not exceed 24 hours, as a longer procedure may increase the risk of fluid or electrolyte imbalance. The drug contains lactose, so it should not be used in patients with lactose intolerance. The drug is not intended for use as a general laxative. Children The drug is used in children from 1 year of age under the supervision of a physician in a hospital setting. Use during pregnancy or lactation Clinical experience with the use of Picoprep during pregnancy is limited, so the drug should be used with caution, especially in the first trimester of pregnancy. Sodium picosulfate and magnesium citrate are not excreted into breast milk. Features of the effect of the drug on the ability to drive vehicles and maintain moving mechanisms.

pharmachologic effect

Combined remedy.
Sodium picosulfate
has a local laxative effect in the colon.

Magnesium citrate

acts as an osmotic laxative by retaining water in the colon. Intestinal cleansing occurs due to a powerful “flushing” effect in combination with stimulation of peristalsis.

Drug interactions

This combination may affect the absorption of chronic oral medications ( antiepileptics, hypoglycemic drugs, oral contraceptives, antibiotics

).
Concomitant use with diuretics, corticosteroids
or
cardiac glycosides
increases the risk of developing hypokalemia.

Concomitant use with NSAIDs

, as well as with drugs that can cause the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone or salt-wasting syndrome (for example,
tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotic drugs and carbamazepine
) increases the risk of fluid and electrolyte imbalance.

Dosage regimen

Inside, one single dose is dissolved in 150 ml of water.

Side effect

From the immune system:

anaphylactic reactions, hypersensitivity.

From the side of metabolism:

hyponatremia, hypokalemia.

From the nervous system:

headache, epilepsy, grand mal seizure (without hyponatremia), convulsions, confusion.
From the gastrointestinal tract:
nausea, proctalgia, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain.

For the skin and subcutaneous tissues:

rash (including erythematous and maculopapular), urticaria, itching, purpura.

special instructions

Not intended for use as a regular laxative.

In patients with signs of hyponatremia, urgent measures must be taken to restore water and electrolyte balance.

Contains potassium bicarbonate, which should be taken into account in patients on a low-potassium diet.

In patients with a significant decrease in renal function, plasma magnesium levels may increase. Inadequate intake of water and electrolytes can cause clinically significant deficiencies of these components, especially in debilitated patients.

The period of preparation for bowel cleansing should not exceed 24 hours; a longer period increases the risk of water-electrolyte imbalance.
Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and machinery
Due to the possibility of developing side effects from the nervous system, caution should be exercised when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.
