pharmachologic effect
ATX Code: A03AA05
PharmacodynamicsTrimebutin, acting on the intestinal enkephalinergic system, is a regulator of its peristalsis. Acting on peripheral δ-, μ- and k receptors, including those located directly on smooth muscle throughout the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), it regulates motility without affecting the central nervous system.
Thus, trimebutin restores the normal physiological activity of intestinal muscles in various gastrointestinal diseases associated with impaired motor skills.
By normalizing visceral sensitivity, trimebutin provides an analgesic effect in abdominal pain.
Pharmacokinetics
After oral administration, trimebutin is rapidly absorbed from the digestive tract. The degree of binding to plasma proteins is about 5%. Trimebutin to a small extent penetrates the placental barrier. Trimebutin is biotransformed in the liver and excreted in the urine mainly in the form of metabolites.
In a study in healthy volunteers with a single dose of Trimedat® forte, the pharmacokinetic parameters of the active metabolite of trimebutin - 2-methylamino-2-phenylbutyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate (desmethyltrimebutin) were: maximum concentration (C max ) - 441.45 ± 252.99 ng / ml; time to reach it (T max ) - 2.20 ± 1.01 hours; the average retention time in the body (MRT) is 17.12 ± 3.14 hours; elimination half-life (T 1/2 ) - 12.52 ± 4.54 hours; the distribution volume (V d ) is 1279.72 ± 1108.53 l, the total clearance (CL t ) is 66.51 ± 34.34 l / h.
