Characteristics of the substance Medazepam

"Daytime" anxiolytic agent (derivative of 1,4-benzodiazepine). White with a greenish-yellow shade of fine crystalline powder. Almost nerastvorim in water, easily soluble in alcohol.

Pharmacology

The pharmacological action is anxiolytic, sedative.

It binds to specific benzodiazepine receptors of the GABA-receptor complex, increases the sensitivity of GABA-receptors to the mediator (GABA). As a result, the frequency of opening the transmembrane channels for chloride ions increases, hyperpolarization of the postsynaptic membrane of the neuron and suppression of neuronal activity occur, inhibition of interneuronal transmission in the central nervous system occurs.

Has a pronounced anxiolytic effect. Sedative, hypnotics, central miorelaxing and anticonvulsant effects manifest themselves to a lesser extent. Eliminates anxiety, fear, psychoneurotic tension, motor anxiety, excessive fussiness. Restores critical assessment of one's own state. Stabilizes the autonomic functions. It alleviates the symptoms of acute alcohol withdrawal.

A soothing effect is combined with some activating properties; practically does not affect the daily working capacity. It is recommended for the therapy of weakened patients and elderly patients (due to the absence of pronounced myorelaxing and sedative properties). Appointed for a short time, tk. at long reception, especially in high doses, development of mental (less often - physical) drug dependence is possible. In children's practice is appointed strictly according to the indications (reduces the ability to memorize).

When ingested quickly absorbed from the digestive tract, bioavailability - 50-75%. Cmax in the blood is reached after 1-2 hours. Almost completely binds to plasma proteins (more than 99%). Metabolised in the liver by hydroxylation, N-demethylation and oxidation with the formation of active metabolites: desmethylmedazepam, diazepam, desmethyldiazepam (nordiazepam) and oxazepam (7% dose). Nordiazepam has a long T1 / 2 and probably has a sedative effect. T1 / 2 medazepam from the plasma - 2 h. Metabolites have large T1 / 2, so after the end of the medazepam intake for another 3-14 days, their significant concentrations in the blood plasma are determined. T1 / 2 of medazepam (including metabolites) is 20-176 hours. Active metabolites pass through the placental barrier and enter the breast milk. It is excreted as metabolites (mainly glucuronides) by the kidneys (63-85%) and through the intestine (15-37%).

Application of the substance Medazepam

Neuroses, psychopathies, neurosis-like and psychopathic conditions, accompanied by increased excitability, irritability, emotional lability, decreased mood, tension, anxiety, fear; psycho-vegetative and psychosomatic disorders, incl. Vegetovascular dystonia, sleep disorders, functional disorders of the cardiovascular system and the gastrointestinal tract, migraine (prevention of attacks), climacteric syndrome.

In pediatric practice: mental lability and excessive excitability in children, "school" neuroses.

In narcology: alcohol abstinence syndrome (uncomplicated), complex therapy of delayed neurotic disorders developing in the structure of remission of alcoholism and drug addiction.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity (including other benzodiazepines), closed angle glaucoma, sleep apnea syndrome, acute liver and kidney disease, severe hepatic and / or renal failure, severe myasthenia gravis, alcohol and drug dependence, pregnancy (I trimester), feeding The chest.

Restrictions on the use

Hepatic and / or renal failure, spinal and cerebellar ataxia, increased intraocular pressure, organic lesions of the central nervous system, circulatory and respiratory failure, children's age (prescribed for children strictly according to indications), advanced age, weakened patients, pregnancy (II and III trimester).

Application in pregnancy and lactation

Contraindicated in the first trimester of pregnancy (increases the risk of congenital malformations). In the second and third trimester of pregnancy, it is possible, if the expected effect of therapy exceeds the potential risk for the fetus, avoid use for a long time or at high doses.

The FDA action category for fetus is not defined.

For the duration of treatment, breastfeeding should be stopped.

Side effects of the substance Medazepam

From the side of the nervous system and sensory organs: drowsiness, headache (first reaction to reception disappearing after dose reduction), dizziness, lethargy, weakness, fast fatigue, depressed mood (including in patients with previous depressive illness), deafness , Confusion, anterograde amnesia, dysarthria, accommodation paresis, double vague vision, eyeball twitching, chest pain, ataxia (in elderly patients and weakened patients); paradoxical reactions (strong arousal, a sense of fear, suicidal thoughts - more often in elderly patients and children, sleep disturbance, increased aggressiveness, seizures of different muscle groups).

From the cardiovascular system and blood (blood, gemostaz): lowering blood pressure, tachycardia, bradycardia.

On the part of the respiratory system: depression of the respiratory center (with airway obstruction or brain damage), alveolar hypoventilation (in patients with COPD with high doses), dyspnea, laryngospasm.

On the part of the intestine: dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, dyspeptic phenomena, constipation, increased activity of hepatic transaminases, jaundice.

Other: retention of urine, myasthenia gravis, skin-allergic reactions (redness, itching, rash, exanthema), decreased libido, dysmenorrhea, chest pain; with long-term use - the development of addiction, dependence (physical and mental), withdrawal syndrome.

Interaction

Strengthens the effect of drugs that depress the central nervous system (including hypnotics, neuroleptics, antihistamines with sedative, narcosis drugs, narcotic analgesics), muscle relaxants, alcohol and ethanol-containing drugs. With simultaneous use with alcohol, in addition to increasing the inhibitory effect on the central nervous system, a paradoxical reaction is possible. Theophylline in low doses eliminates the calming effect of medazepam. Cimetidine, omeprazole, disulfiram, estrogen-containing oral contraceptives increase and prolong the action of medazepam. Nicotine accelerates the excretion of medazepam from the body.

Overdose

Symptoms: prolonged confusion, drowsiness, fatigue, ataxia, tachycardia, arterial hypotension, decreased muscle tone; in severe cases - coma, convulsions, respiratory depression, until the complete stop of breathing and heart.

Treatment: gastric lavage; Reception of activated carbon and laxatives; control and correction of breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and blood circulation; Symptomatic therapy. Forced diuresis and hemodialysis are of little effect. To eliminate the inhibitory effect on the central nervous system, a specific benzodiazepine antagonist, flumazenil, can be used.

Routes of administration

Inside.

Precautions for the substance Medazepam

With caution appoint patients with long-term antihypertensive drugs of central action, beta-blockers, hypoglycemic drugs, contraceptive oral medications, anticoagulants and cardiac glycosides (due to the inability to accurately predict the nature of interaction with medazepam).

With a daily intake of medazepam for several weeks, there is a danger of developing physical and mental dependence. This effect develops not only with the abuse of medazepam (especially high doses), but also when applied at usual therapeutic doses. In this regard, the continuation of treatment is possible only for life indications and only after a careful comparison of the benefits of therapy with the risk of dependence on it. The risk of drug dependence is increased by using large doses, increasing the duration of treatment, in patients who previously abused ethanol or drugs.

If such unusual reactions occur in patients, such as increased aggressiveness, agitation, a sense of fear, thoughts of suicide, hallucinations, muscle cramps, medazepam should be discontinued.

Long-term use during pregnancy can lead to the development of withdrawal syndrome in a newborn. Use in high doses immediately before childbirth or during labor can cause a respiratory depression in the newborn, a decrease in blood pressure, hypothermia, and difficulty sucking ("sluggish child syndrome").

If you miss a dose of the next dose of the drug should take the missed dose immediately, as soon as this omission was seen, while you cannot immediately take a double dose of the drug.

Use caution when working with drivers of vehicles and people whose profession is associated with increased concentration of attention (in the first days of treatment should completely abandon driving the car and doing work that requires a quick mental and physical reaction). During the period of treatment, the use of alcoholic beverages is unacceptable.

When treating and preventing the development of withdrawal symptoms, it is necessary to abolish the drug gradually.

During the aftereffect, the development of heavy excitation states is possible.

Special instructions

It should be borne in mind that the anxiety or stress associated with everyday stress, usually are not an indication for the appointment of anxiolytics.
