概要

ピロキシカムはオキシカム系の非ステロイド性抗炎症薬(NSAID)です。標準的なNSAIDの特性(抗炎症、鎮痛、解熱)を持っていますが、獣医学における主な用途は、犬の膀胱の​移行上皮癌(TCC)​や、扁平上皮癌、乳腺腺癌などの他の腫瘍の​補助治療​です。

​臨床のポイント:​ ピロキシカムは、新しいCOX-2選択的NSAIDと比較して、犬や猫における治療域が非常に狭いです。胃腸潰瘍のリスクが高いため、現在では変形性関節症の痛みの治療に単独で使用されることはまれです。

血管新生を抑制し免疫系を調節することで肉瘤の再発を防ぐため、シクロホスファミドなどの薬剤とともに​メトロノミック(低用量・持続的)化学療法​プロトコルで使用されることが増えています。

作用機序

Like other NSAIDs, piroxicam non-selectively inhibits ​cyclooxygenase (COX)​ enzymes, thereby blocking the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins and thromboxanes. This reduces inflammation and pain.

Its anti-tumor effects are not fully understood but are believed to be indirect. Mechanisms include:

  • Inhibition of COX-2 expressed by tumor cells (especially TCC)
  • Anti-angiogenesis (preventing new blood vessel formation to the tumor)
  • Immune system modulation
  • Inhibition of superoxide formation

安全性・警告

禁忌

  • Hypersensitivity to piroxicam, aspirin, or other NSAIDs
  • Active or history of gastrointestinal ulcer disease
  • Bleeding disorders
  • Gastric ulceration
  • Renal disease
  • Concurrent use of corticosteroids
  • Concurrent use of other NSAIDs
  • Dehydration (relative contraindication due to renal risk)

有害事象

  • Gastrointestinal ulceration and bleeding (melena, hematemesis)
  • Vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea
  • Renal papillary necrosis
  • Peritonitis (secondary to GI perforation)
  • Decreased hematocrit (anecdotal in cats)
  • Peripheral edema
  • Elevated liver enzymes
  • Gastrointestinal toxicity
  • Gastric ulceration
  • Ulcerative skin lesions (reported in cats)
  • Potential precipitation of cardiac failure (known in humans, unknown risk in animals)

注意事項

​Extreme Caution:​ Use in cats is controversial and must be done with extreme caution due to lack of safety studies and potential for severe GI/renal toxicity. ​Caution:​ Use carefully in patients with severely compromised cardiac function due to potential for peripheral edema. The therapeutic window in dogs is very narrow; doses as low as 1 mg/kg daily have caused severe GI ulceration and peritonitis.

医薬品相互作用

Aminoglycosides (gentamicin, amikacin)

Increased risk for nephrotoxicity

Anticoagulants (heparin, LMWH, warfarin)

Increased risk for bleeding

Aspirin

Decreased piroxicam plasma levels and increased likelihood of GI adverse effects (blood loss); do not use concurrently

Bisphosphonates (alendronate)

May increase risk for GI ulceration

Cisplatin

May potentiate the renal toxicity of cisplatin

CorticosteroidsMajor

Significantly increased risk for GI adverse effects and ulceration

Furosemide

May reduce the saluretic and diuretic effects of furosemide

Highly protein-bound drugs (phenytoin, valproic acid, sulfonamides)

Piroxicam is 99% protein-bound and may displace other drugs, increasing their serum levels and duration of action

Methotrexate

Serious toxicity has occurred when used concomitantly; use with extreme caution

Other NSAIDsMajor

Increased risk of severe gastric ulceration and GI toxicity

DiureticsModerate

Increased risk of nephrotoxicity and renal papillary necrosis

AminoglycosidesModerate

Increased risk of nephrotoxicity

Highly protein-bound drugsMinor

Piroxicam is highly protein-bound and may displace other drugs, potentially increasing their free plasma concentrations

監視

  • Adverse Effects (particularly GI bleeding: melena, hematemesis, pale mucous membranes)
  • Liver function tests (occasionally with chronic use)
  • Renal function tests (occasionally with chronic use)
  • Renal function (BUN, Creatinine, SDMA, Urinalysis)
  • Liver enzymes
  • Clinical signs of GI ulceration (vomiting, melena, anorexia)
  • Hydration status
  • Skin integrity (especially in cats)

薬物動態

半減期

12-13 hours40 hours

吸収

Well absorbed from the gut. Food decreases the rate of absorption but not the total amount absorbed. Oral bioavailability is 100% in dogs and ~80% in cats. Peak plasma levels occur around 3 hours post-dosing.

分布

Volume of distribution is ~0.3 L/kg in dogs. Highly bound to plasma proteins (99%). Synovial levels are ~40% of plasma levels. Maternal milk concentrations are ~1% of plasma levels.

代謝

Undergoes hepatic biotransformation.

消失

Principally excreted as metabolites in the urine. Total body clearance in dogs is 0.066 L/hour.

過剰投与

Overdosage can lead to severe ​gastrointestinal (ulceration, perforation)​ and ​renal (papillary necrosis, failure)​ effects. Dogs may be more sensitive to the ulcerative effects than humans.

​Treatment:​

  • Decontamination with emetics and/or activated charcoal if recent.
  • Gastrointestinal protectants (e.g., misoprostol, omeprazole, sucralfate) are strongly warranted.
  • Fluid diuresis should be considered to protect renal function.
  • Monitor carefully and provide supportive care.

飼主向け情報

ピロキシカムは強力な抗炎症薬であり、ペットの特定の種類の癌の治療を助けるためによく使用されます。

  • ​食事と一緒に与える:​ これにより、胃の不調を軽減できる場合があります。
  • ​胃潰瘍に注意する:​ ペットが食事をやめたり、嘔吐したり(特にコーヒーの粉のように見えたり血が混じっている場合)、黒っぽいタール状の便をした場合は、すぐに薬を中止し、獣医師に連絡してください。
  • ​薬を混ぜない:​ 獣医師の明確な指示がない限り、ピロキシカムの服用中はアスピリン、他のNSAID(リマダイル、メタカムなど)、またはステロイド(プレドニゾンなど)を絶対に与えないでください。
  • ​用量の厳守:​ この薬はペットにとって安全域が非常に狭いため、処方された用量を絶対に超えないでください。
