Allergodil

Composition, structure and packing

Nasal spray dose

1 dose azelastina hydrochloride 140 mg.

Excipients: disodium salt of EDTA x 2H2O, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, citric acid, sodium phosphate dibasic dvenadtsativodny, sodium chloride, purified water.

Clinico-pharmacological group: antiallergic drug for local use in ENT practice.

Pharmacological action

Blocker histamine H1-receptor, a derivative ftalazinona. Has a strong and prolonged anti-allergic effect. It inhibits the synthesis or release of mediators involved in the early and late stages of allergic reactions (including leukotrienes, serotonin, platelet activation factor / PAF /), inhibits the release of histamine from mast cells activated by allergen, preventing bronchospasm caused by leukotrienes and PAF, reduces the number of cells and molecular adhesion of eosinophils.

With prolonged use at high doses was not observed clinically significant effect on azelastina interval QT.

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption and distribution

After 2 h after intranasal application in a daily dose of 560 micrograms azelastina concentration in plasma is about 0.65 ng / ml, in a daily dose of 1.12 mg - 1.09 ng / ml. Thus, the concentration azelastina in blood plasma is proportional to the dose of the drug. Despite increasing doses of systemic bioavailability after intranasal application of about 8 times lower than with oral azelastina a daily dose of 4.4 mg (therapeutic dose for treatment of allergic rhinitis).

After repeated intranasal administration of the drug in a daily dose of 560 micrograms Css azelastina in the blood plasma of healthy volunteers at about 0.27 ng / ml.

Repeated use of the drug in patients with allergic rhinitis leads to increased concentrations azelastina in plasma compared with healthy volunteers, suggesting a more pronounced systemic absorption (most likely due to increased permeability of the inflamed mucosa of the nasal cavity).

Metabolism

The concentration of active metabolite N-dismetilatselastina located on the lower limit of quantification of content or does not reach it (0.12 ng / ml).

Statement
