active agent – famotidine of 20 mg,
excipients: aspartic acid, Mannitolum
solvent: sodium chloride, water for injections

the Description

the Pharmacological

Pharmacokinetics Kinetics properties of famotidine has linear character.
Absorption
of Kvamatel® for injections it is intended only for intravenous administration.
Distribution
Linking with proteins of plasma is significant rather poorly: 15-20%.
Elimination half-life: 2.3 – 3.5 hours. At patients with a heavy renal failure time of semi-removal of famotidine can exceed 20 hours.
Biotransformation
Metabolism of drug occurs in a liver. The only metabolite found in the person is sulphoxide.
Removal
Famotidine is removed by kidneys (65 – 70%) and by metabolism (30 – 35%). The renal clearance is 250 – 450 ml/min. that indicates some extent of canalicular excretion. 65 – 70% of intravenously entered dose are found in urine in not changed look. A small part of the entered dose can be excreted in the form of sulphoxide.
The pharmacodynamics
Famotidine is a powerful competitive inhibitor of H2 – histamine receptors. The main clinically significant pharmacological effect of famotidine is the inhibition of gastric secretion. Famotidine reduces both concentration of acid, and volume of gastric secretion while changes of pepsinia are proportional to the cosecreted volume.
At healthy volunteers and patients with hypersecretion famotidine inhibits basal and night secretion of a stomach and also the secretion stimulated by administration of Pentagastrinum, beta ashes, caffeine, insulin and a physiological vagal reflex.
Secretion inhibition duration when using doses of 20 mg and 40 mg is from 10 to 12 hours.
Single oral administration of doses of 20 mg and 40 mg provides inhibition of basal and night secretion of acid in the evening.
Famotidine practically does not affect gastrin level in serum on an empty stomach or after meal.
Famotidine does not affect gastric emptying, exocrine function of a pancreas, a blood stream in a liver and a portal system.
Famotidine does not affect the fermental system of P450 cytochrome in a liver.
Anti-androgenic influence of drug is noted. Level of serumal hormones after treatment by famotidine did not change.
Indications
– a duodenum ulcer
– stomach ulcer without malignancy
– a gastroezofagealnorefluxny disease
– other states which are followed by hypersecretion (for example, Zollingera-Ellison’s syndrome)
– prevention of aspiration of acid gastric contents (Mendelssohn’s syndrome) when carrying out the general anesthesia

the Route of administration and doses
of Kvamatel® for injections is intended only for intravenous administration, recommended for use in stationary conditions, at patients who have no opportunity to take the drug inside.
Drug can be used until performing oral therapy does not become possible.
The recommended dose makes 20 mg intravenously (in / c) twice a day (each 12 hours).
At Zollingera-Ellison’s syndrome
the Initial dose makes 20 mg in in each 6 hours. After that the dosage depends on the volume of secretion and a clinical condition of the patient.
At the general anesthesia for prevention of aspiration of acid gastric contents
of 20 mg in at morning in day of operation or, at least, in 2 hours prior to operation.
The initial dose for intravenous administration cannot exceed 20 mg. For carrying out an intravenous injection contents of a bottle it is necessary to dissolve 0.9% of solution of sodium of chloride (solvent ampoule) in 5 – 10 ml, and then to enter slowly (within not less than 2 minutes). Divorced solution is stable within 24 hours at a temperature not over 25 of 0C.
At drug infusion, solution should be entered for 15 – 30 minutes. Solutions should be prepared just before introduction. It is possible to use only transparent colourless solutions.
In a renal failure
As famotidine is excreted mainly by kidneys, at patients with a heavy renal failure it is necessary to observe precautionary measures.
If the clearance of creatinine is less than 30 ml/min., and serumal concentration of creatinine exceeds 3 mg / 100 ml, then the daily dose needs to be lowered to 20 mg or to increase intervals between introductions till 36 – 48 o’clock.
Use for children
Safety and efficiency of drug at children are not established.
Use for elderly patients
Dose adjustment depending on age is not required.

Medicinal interactions
Famotidine does not affect the fermental system of P450 cytochrome in a liver. Due to the increase rn secretion of a stomach famotidine can cause decrease in absorption of a ketokonazol at simultaneous use of these drugs.

Special instructions
before therapy by famotidine or if there is no such opportunity, before transition to oral treatment it is necessary to exclude existence of a malignant new growth of a stomach.
In a liver failure of Kvamatel® it is necessary to use with care in a reduced dose.
