Child: As syr/immediate-release tab: 2-6 years 1-2 mg; >6-12 years 2 mg; >12 years Same as adult dose. All doses are given 3 or 4 times daily. As extended-release tab: 6-12 years 4 mg 12 hourly.
Parenteral Severe bronchospasm
Adult: 50 mcg given via SC or IM injection given 4 hourly, as required. Child: ≥12 years Same as adult dose.
Hướng dẫn pha thuốc
IV inj: Dilute ampoule labelled as containing 500 mcg/mL with 10 mL of water for injection to provide a solution containing 50 mcg/mL. IV infusion: Dilute 5 mL salbutamol inj with 500 mL NaCl or dextrose inj to a concentration of 10 mcg/mL.
Chống chỉ định
IV (in the treatment of premature labour): Pre-existing or risk factors for ischaemic heart disease, gestational age <22 weeks, conditions in which prolongation of pregnancy is hazardous, intrauterine foetal death, known lethal congenital or lethal chromosomal malformation, pulmonary hypertension. Non-IV formulation is not indicated for use in uncomplicated premature labour or threatened abortion.
Thận trọng
Patient with CV disease (e.g. arrythmia, coronary insufficiency, hypertension, heart failure), diabetes mellitus, glaucoma, hyperthyroidism, hypokalaemia, seizures. Renal impairment. Children and elderly. Pregnancy and lactation.
Monitor FEV1 peak flow, and/or other pulmonary function tests; blood pressure, heart rate, CNS stimulation; serum glucose, K and creatinine; asthma symptoms; arterial or capillary blood gases if needed; lactate, and ECG (IV).
Quá liều
Symptoms: Tachycardia, tremor, hyperactivity, metabolic effects (e.g. hypokalaemia, lactic acidosis), headache, nervousness, dry mouth, palpitations, dizziness, fatigue, malaise, insomnia, arrhythmias, anginal pain, seizures. Children may experience nausea, vomiting, hyperglycaemia when taken orally. Management: Symptomatic treatment. Monitor serum K and lactate levels. May give cardioselective β-blocker with caution. May give oral or IV potassium for hypokalaemia as needed.
Tương tác
Increased risk of hypokalaemia with corticosteroids, diuretics (e.g. loop, thiazide) and xanthines (e.g. theophylline). Increased vascular effects with MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs). May cause severe bronchospasm when used with β-blockers (e.g. propranolol). May decrease serum concentrations of digoxin.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Salbutamol is a direct-acting sympathomimetic that acts on β2-receptors to relax bronchial smooth muscle with less prominent effect on the heart. It activates adenyl cyclase, the enzyme that stimulates the production of cyclic adenosine-3', 5'-monophosphate (cAMP). Increased cAMP leads to activation of protein kinase A, which inhibits phosphorylation of myosin and lowers intracellular ionic Ca concentrations, resulting in muscle relaxation.
Synonym: albuterol Onset: ≤5 minutes (inhalation); 5.4-8.2 minutes (oral inhalation); ≤30 minutes (oral). Duration: Inhalation: 3-6 hours. Oral inhalation: Approx 2-6 hours. Oral: 6-8 hours (immediate-release); up to 12 hours (extended-release). Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: Inhalation: 30 minutes. Oral inhalation: 25-30 minutes. Oral: ≤2 hours (immediate-release); 6 hours (extended release). Bioavailability: Approx 50%. Distribution: Crosses the placenta. Plasma protein binding: 10%. Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver to an inactive sulfate conjugate. Excretion: Mainly via urine (80-100% [oral inhalation]; 76% over 3 days, [60% as metabolite; oral]); faeces (<20% [oral inhalation]; 4% [oral]). Elimination half-life: Oral inhalation: 3.8 to approx 5 hours. Oral: 5-6 hours (immediate-release); 9.3 hours (extended-release). IV: 4-6 hours.
