概要

プロクロルペラジンは強力な​フェノチアジン系制吐薬​であり、獣医療では主に犬や猫の重度の悪心および嘔吐を抑えるために使用されます。

歴史的には獣医専用の配合剤(抗コリン薬を含むDarbazine®など)として広く使用されていましたが、現在では人体用製剤を適応外使用(オフラベル)することが一般的です。

​臨床のポイント:​ 広範な受容体拮抗作用を持つため、中枢性嘔吐に対して非常に有効です。しかし、顕著な鎮静作用やαアドレナリン受容体遮断(低血圧を引き起こす)のリスクがあるため、通常はマロピタントやオンダンセトロンなどの新しい標的制吐薬が無効または利用できない場合に限定して使用されます。また、軽度の鎮静作用と弱い抗コリン作用も併せ持ちます。

作用機序

Prochlorperazine exerts its antiemetic effects primarily by acting on the brain's emetic center and the ​Chemoreceptor Trigger Zone (CRTZ)​. Its broad-spectrum efficacy is due to the antagonism of multiple receptor types:

  • Dopaminergic (D2) Antagonism → Blocks dopamine signaling in the CRTZ, providing the primary antiemetic effect.
  • Histaminergic (H1) & Cholinergic (M1) Antagonism → Contributes to anti-motion sickness efficacy and mild antispasmodic effects in the GI tract.
  • Alpha-1 Adrenergic Antagonism → Causes peripheral vasodilation, which is responsible for the primary adverse effect of hypotension.

It also has strong extrapyramidal effects due to central dopamine blockade in the basal ganglia.

安全性・警告

禁忌

  • Hypovolemia or dehydration
  • Shock
  • Tetanus
  • Strychnine intoxication
  • Hepatic dysfunction (use with caution)
  • Cardiac disease (use with caution)

有害事象

  • Sedation
  • Hypotension
  • Muscle fasciculations and tremors (extrapyramidal signs)
  • Prolactin release
  • Depression
  • Extrapyramidal reactions (rigidity, tremors, weakness, restlessness)

注意事項

Animals may require lower dosages of general anesthetics following phenothiazine administration. Use cautiously and at smaller doses in animals with hepatic dysfunction, cardiac disease, or general debilitation. Because of hypotensive effects, it is relatively contraindicated in patients with hypovolemia, dehydration, or shock. May exacerbate depression in patients with pre-existing CNS depression. Do not use for tetanus or strychnine intoxication due to extrapyramidal effects. Use with caution in very young or debilitated animals.

医薬品相互作用

AntacidsModerate

May cause reduced GI absorption of oral phenothiazines

Antidiarrheal mixtures (e.g., Kaolin/pectin, bismuth subsalicylate)

May cause reduced GI absorption of oral phenothiazines

CNS Depressant Agents (barbiturates, narcotics, anesthetics)

May cause additive CNS depression if used with phenothiazines

Dopamine

Phenothiazines may decrease pressor effects

Epinephrine

Phenothiazines block alpha-adrenergic receptors; concomitant epinephrine can lead to unopposed beta-activity causing vasodilation and increased cardiac rate (epinephrine reversal)

Metoclopramide

Phenothiazines may potentiate the extrapyramidal effects of metoclopramide

Opiates

May enhance the hypotensive effects of the phenothiazines; dosages of prochlorperazine may need to be reduced

Organophosphate Agents

Phenothiazines should not be given within one month of worming with these agents as their effects may be potentiated

Paraquat

Toxicity of the herbicide paraquat may be increased by prochlorperazine

Phenytoin

Metabolism may be decreased if given concurrently with phenothiazines

Physostigmine

Toxicity may be enhanced by prochlorperazine

Procaine

Activity may be enhanced by phenothiazines

PropranololModerate

Increased blood levels of both drugs may result if administered together

Warfarin

Prochlorperazine may decrease anticoagulant effect

CNS depressants (anaesthetics, narcotic analgesics)Major

May cause additive CNS depression

Antidiarrhoeal preparations (bismuth subsalicylate, kaolin/pectin)Moderate

May reduce GI absorption of oral phenothiazines

Adrenaline (Epinephrine)Major

Phenothiazines block alpha-adrenergic receptors, leading to unopposed beta activity causing vasodilation and increased cardiac rate

監視

  • Cardiac rate, rhythm, and blood pressure (if indicated and possible to measure)
  • Anti-emetic/anti-spasmodic efficacy
  • Hydration and electrolyte status
  • Body temperature (especially if ambient temperature is very hot or cold)
  • Heart rate and rhythm
  • CNS status (sedation level, extrapyramidal signs)
  • Liver function (with prolonged use)

薬物動態

吸収

Little specific information available; likely follows general patterns of other phenothiazine agents.

分布

Likely follows general patterns of other phenothiazines. A related compound (chlorpromazine) is detected in maternal milk with a milk-to-plasma ratio of 0.5-0.7 or less.

代謝

Hepatic (assumed based on phenothiazine class).

消失

Likely follows general patterns of other phenothiazine agents.

過剰投与

Overdose generally presents as an exaggeration of adverse effects, particularly profound sedation, hypotension, and extrapyramidal clinical signs (such as torticollis, severe tremors, muscle rigidity, and excessive salivation).

​Treatment:​ Acute extrapyramidal signs have been successfully treated with injectable diphenhydramine in humans. Hypotension should be treated with intravenous fluids; avoid epinephrine due to the risk of "epinephrine reversal" causing further vasodilation.
