Pharmacological action

Pharmacodynamics

Tolperisone-OBL - muscle relaxant of the central mechanism of action. It has a membrane stabilizing effect, inhibits the conduction of nerve impulses in primary afferent fibers and motor neurons, which leads to blocking of spinal mono- and polysynaptic reflexes. Probably, mediates blocking the release of mediators by inhibiting the entry of Ca + 2 into synapses. It inhibits the conduction of excitation along the reticulospinal path in the brain stem.

Regardless of the influence of the central nervous system, it enhances peripheral blood flow. In the development of this effect, the weak antispasmodic and antiadrenergic effect of tolperisone may play a role.

Pharmacokinetics

After oral administration, tolperisone is well absorbed from the small intestine. The maximum concentration in blood plasma is reached after 30 minutes - 1 hour after administration, bioavailability due to pronounced presystemic metabolism is about 20%. Tolperisone is extensively metabolized in the liver and kidneys.

Excreted in the urine almost exclusively (over 99%) as metabolites. The pharmacological activity of metabolites is unknown.

Indications

Treatment of pathologically increased tone and spasms of striated muscles caused by organic neurological pathology (including damage to the pyramidal pathways, multiple sclerosis, stroke, myelopathy, encephalomyelitis).

Treatment of increased tone and muscle spasms, muscle contractures accompanying diseases of the musculoskeletal system (spondylosis, spondylitis, arthrosis of large joints, cervical and lumbar pain syndromes).
