Intravenous Treatment and prophylaxis of thrombosis in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
Adult: Initially, 2 mcg/kg/min by continuous infusion. Check aPTT after 2 hr and adjust dose until steady-state aPTT is 1.5-3 times the initial baseline value, not exceeding 100 seconds. Max: 10 mcg/kg/min. Patients who has undergone cardiac surgery, critically ill patients/intensive care unit patients w/ multiple organ failure: Initially, 0.5 mcg/kg/min, then adjust to the target aPTT range.
Intravenous Anticoagulant in percutaneous coronary intervention
Adult: Initially, 25 mcg/kg/min by infusion and 350 mcg/kg by bolus inj given simultaneously over 3-5 min. Check activated clotting time (ACT) 5-10 min after the bolus dose is completed, procedure may proceed if ACT is >300 seconds; if ACT is <300 seconds, an additional bolus dose of 150 mcg/kg may be given, adjust infusion rate to 15-40 mcg/kg/min then check ACT after 5-10 min.

Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Argatroban is a synthetic direct thrombin inhibitor which reversibly binds to the active thrombin site of free and clot-associated thrombin. It exerts its anticoagulant effects by inhibiting thrombin-catalysed or -induced reactions, e.g. fibrin formation; activation of coagulation factors V, VIII, and XIII; activation of protein C; and platelet aggregation. Onset: Immediate. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Time to peak plasma concentration: Steady-state: 1-3 hr. Distribution: Distributed mainly in the extra-cellular fluid. Volume of distribution: 174 mL/kg. Plasma protein binding: 20% (albumin); 34% (α1-acid glycoprotein). Metabolism: Undergoes hepatic metabolism mainly via hydroxylation and aromatisation; also metabolised by CYP3A4/5 isoenzymes to form 4 known metabolites. Excretion: Primarily in the faeces via the bile, as metabolites and at least 14% as unchanged drug; via urine (approx 16% as unchanged drug). Terminal elimination half-life: 39-51 min.
