Pharmacological action

METOPROLOL-RATIOPHARM is a selective beta-blocker, mainly affects beta-1-adrenergic receptors of the heart ("cardioselective beta-blocker") without internal sympathomimetic activity and with a weakly expressed membrane-stabilizing effect.

It has antianginal, hypotensive and antiarrhythmic effects.

Blocking beta 1 -adrenoreceptors of the heart in low doses, it reduces the formation of cAMP from ATP stimulated by catecholamines, reduces the intracellular current of calcium ions, has a negative chrono-, dromo-, batmo- and inotropic effect (reduces heart rate (HR), inhibits conduction and excitability, reduces myocardial contractility).

The total peripheral vascular resistance at the beginning of the use of beta-blockers (in the first 24 hours after ingestion) increases (as a result of a reciprocal increase in the activity of alpha-adrenergic receptors and the elimination of beta-1-adrenoreceptor stimulation), which returns to the initial one after 1-3 days, and with long-term appointment - decreases.

The hypotensive effect is due to a decrease in cardiac output and renin synthesis, inhibition of the activity of the renin-angiotensin system (of great importance in patients with initial hypersecretion of renin) and the central nervous system, restoration of the sensitivity of the aortic arch baroreceptors (there is no increase in their activity in response to a decrease in blood pressure ) and, as a result, a decrease in peripheral sympathetic influences. Lowers high blood pressure (BP) at rest, with physical exertion and stress.

The antihypertensive effect develops rapidly (systolic blood pressure decreases after 15 minutes, maximum - after 2 hours) and lasts for 6 hours, diastolic blood pressure changes more slowly: a stable decrease is observed after several weeks of regular use.

The antianginal effect is determined by a decrease in myocardial oxygen demand as a result of a decrease in heart rate (longer diastole and improved myocardial perfusion) and contractility, as well as a decrease in the sensitivity of the myocardium to the effects of sympathetic innervation. Reduces the number and severity of angina attacks and increases exercise tolerance.

Antiarrhythmic effect is due to the elimination of arrhythmogenic factors (tachycardia, increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system, increased content of cAMP, arterial hypertension), a decrease in the rate of spontaneous excitation of sinus and ectopic pacemakers and a slowdown in atrioventricular conduction (mainly in the antegrade and, to a lesser extent, in the retrograde directions through the atrioventricular (AV) node) and along additional routes.

With supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, sinus tachycardia, with functional heart diseases and hyperthyroidism, it reduces heart rate or may even lead to a restoration of sinus rhythm. Prevents the development of migraine.

When used in medium therapeutic doses, unlike non-selective beta-blockers, it has a less pronounced effect on organs containing beta 1 -adrenoreceptors (pancreas, skeletal muscle, smooth muscles of the peripheral arteries of the bronchi and uterus) and on carbohydrate metabolism. When used in large doses (more than 100 mg / day), it has a blocking effect on both subtypes of beta-adrenergic receptors.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

During pregnancy (especially in the first 3 months), the drug should be used only according to strict indications, taking into account careful weighing of the benefit / risk ratio, as To date, there is no sufficient experience of its use in pregnancy, especially in the early stages of pregnancy.

If pregnant women took metoprolol, then due to the possibility of a newborn having bradycardia, arterial hypotension and hyperglycemia, treatment is stopped 48-72 hours before the onset of labor. If this is not possible, then the newborn should be under especially close supervision for 48-72 hours after birth.

The effect of metoprolol on a newborn, while breastfeeding has not been studied, therefore, women taking the drug should stop breastfeeding.

Influence on the fetus: intrauterine growth retardation, hypoglycemia, and bradycardia are possible.

Other: pain in the back or joints, like all beta-blockers, in rare cases can cause a slight increase in body weight, decreased libido and / or potency.

Drug Interaction

Concomitant use with monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors is not recommended due to a significant increase in antihypertensive activity. The interval between treatment with MAO inhibitors and metoprolol should be at least 14 days.

Simultaneous administration of verapamil may provoke cardiac arrest. Concomitant administration of nifedipine leads to a significant decrease in blood pressure.

Inhalation anesthesia (hydrocarbon derivatives) increases the risk of myocardial function suppression and the development of hypotension.

Beta Adrenostimulants, Theophylline, cocaine, estrogens (sodium retention), indomethacin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (sodium retention and blocking of prostaglandin synthesis by the kidneys) all attenuate the antihypertensive effect.

There is an increase in the depressant effect on the central nervous system - with ethanol summation of the cardio-depressive effect - with anesthesia drugs, increasing the risk of peripheral circulation disorders - with ergot alkaloids.

When taken together with oral hypoglycemic agents, their effect with insulin may be reduced - increasing the risk of hypoglycemia, increasing its severity and lengthening, masking some symptoms of hypoglycemia (tachycardia, sweating, increasing blood pressure).

When combined with antihypertensives, diuretics, nitroglycerin or blockers of slow calcium channels can develop a sharp decrease in blood pressure (special caution is required when combined with prazosin) increase in the severity of heart rate reduction and inhibition of atrioventricular conduction when using metoprolol with verapamil, diltiaromide, antithromycin, antipyretic general anesthesia and cardiac glycosides.

Inductors of liver microsomal enzymes (rifampicin, barbiturates) lead to increased metoprolol metabolism, decreased plasma metoprolol concentration, and decreased effect.

Inhibitors (cimetidine, oral contraceptives, phenothiazines) - increase blood plasma concentrations.

Allergens used for immunotherapy, or allergen extracts for skin samples when combined with metoprolol increase the risk of systemic allergic reactions or anaphylaxis, iodine-containing X-ray contrast agents for I / O administration increase the risk of anaphylactic reactions.

Reduces the clearance of xanthine (except for dipyllin), especially in patients with initially elevated theophylline clearance under the influence of smoking. Reduces lidocaine clearance, increases plasma concentration of lidocaine. Strengthens and prolongs action of antidepolarizing muscle relaxants prolongs anticoagulant effect of coumarins.

When combined with ethanol, there is an increased risk of a marked decrease in blood pressure.

Overdose

Symptoms: severe sinus bradycardia, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, cyanosis, marked decrease in blood pressure, arrhythmia, ventricular extrasystole, bronchospasm, fainting, with acute overdose - cardiogenic shock, loss of consciousness, coma, atrioventricular blockade (up to the development of complete transverse cardiac blockade). The first signs of overdose manifest themselves after 20 minutes - 2 hours after taking the drug.

Treatment: gastric lavage and appointment of adsorbing agents symptomatic therapy: in case of pronounced decrease in blood pressure - the patient should be in the position of Trendelenburg in case of excessive decrease in blood pressure, bradycardia and heart failure - in / in, with an interval of 2-5 minutes, bath adrenostimulators until the desired effect is achieved or in / in 0.5-2 mg of atropine sulfate. In the absence of a positive effect - dopamine, dobutamine or norepinephrine (norepinephrine). As a follow-up, perhaps the administration of 1-10 mg of glucagon, the staging of transvenous intracardiac pacemaker. At bronchospasm it is necessary to enter in / in stimulators of beta 1 -adrenoreceptors. In convulsions - slow in / in the introduction of diazepam. Hemodialysis is not effective.
