INSTRUCTION FOR THE SPECIALIST.
Description of the drug approved by the manufacturer for the printed edition of 2008.
PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT
Has a bacteriostatic effect on Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Aminosalicylic acid competes with para-aminobenzoic acid and suppresses the synthesis of folate in mycobacteria tuberculosis. The drug is active against multiplying mycobacteria, practically does not affect bacteria that are at rest or located intracellularly. Reduces the likelihood of development of resistance of mycobacteria to streptomycin and isoniazid.
PHARMACOKINETICS
Absorption is high. C max in blood plasma after taking a dose of 4 g is 75 mcg / ml. Metabolised in the liver. Easily penetrates through the histogematic barriers and is distributed in tissues. High concentrations of the drug are found in the lungs, kidneys and liver. Moderately penetrates into the cerebrospinal fluid only with inflammation of the membranes, in this case the concentration of aminosalicylic acid in the cerebrospinal fluid is 10-50% of the concentration of the drug in the blood plasma. It is excreted mainly with urine (80% of the drug is excreted within 10 hours), with 50% in the form of an acetylated derivative. T 1/2 is 0.5 h. Excretion is reduced in patients with impaired liver function.
