概要

ピランテルパモ酸塩は、広く使用されている非常に安全な​ピリミジン系駆虫薬​であり、主に様々な動物種の消化管内線虫(回虫や鉤虫など)に対して有効です。

パモ酸塩は消化管からの吸収が悪いため、標的寄生虫が生息する腸管腔内で高濃度に達します。安全域が非常に広く、嗜好性の高い経口懸濁液が利用できるため、小児獣医療(子犬や子猫の定期駆虫)において不可欠な薬剤です。

​臨床のポイント:​ 回虫や鉤虫には非常に有効ですが、標準用量のピランテルは鞭虫(Trichuris spp.)やほとんどの条虫には無効です。ただし馬においては、回盲部条虫(Anoplocephala perfoliata)の駆除に倍量投与が用いられます。馬の円虫や犬の鉤虫(Ancylostoma caninum)における耐性の発現は、臨床上の新たな懸念事項となっています。

作用機序

Pyrantel acts as a depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent in susceptible parasites.

  • It binds selectively to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on the somatic muscle cells of the nematode.
  • This binding causes continuous depolarization and an influx of calcium → spastic paralysis of the worm.
  • Paralyzed worms lose their ability to maintain attachment to the host's intestinal mucosa and are subsequently expelled alive in the feces via normal gastrointestinal peristalsis.
  • It also possesses mild cholinesterase inhibitory properties, further contributing to the accumulation of acetylcholine at the parasite's neuromuscular junction.

安全性・警告

禁忌

  • Severely debilitated animals

有害事象

  • Emesis (rare, primarily in small animals)

注意事項

Use with caution in severely debilitated animals. The drug is considered very safe for use during pregnancy (Class A in dogs/cats) and is safe to use in nursing veterinary patients.

医薬品相互作用

Diethylcarbamazine

Increased risk for adverse effects

Levamisole

Because of similar mechanisms of action (and toxicity), do not use concurrently

Morantel

Because of similar mechanisms of action (and toxicity), do not use concurrently

Organophosphates

Increased risk for adverse effects

Piperazine

Pyrantel and piperazine have antagonistic mechanisms of action; do not use together

監視

  • Fecal egg count reduction testing (FECRT) for strongyle nematodes (especially in horses to monitor for resistance)
  • Resolution of clinical signs of parasitism
  • Routine fecal flotations 2-4 weeks post-treatment

薬物動態

吸収

Pyrantel pamoate is poorly absorbed from the GI tract, allowing it to reach the lower GI in dogs, cats, and equines. Pyrantel tartrate is absorbed more readily than the pamoate salt. Pigs and dogs absorb pyrantel tartrate more so than ruminants, with peak plasma levels occurring 2-3 hours after administration.

分布

Acts primarily locally within the gastrointestinal lumen due to poor systemic absorption of the pamoate salt.

代謝

The fraction of the drug that is absorbed is rapidly metabolized.

消失

Excreted into the urine and feces.

過剰投与

Pyrantel has a moderate to wide margin of safety.

  • Dosages up to approximately 7 times the recommended dose generally result in no toxic reactions.
  • In horses, doses of 20X yielded no adverse effects.
  • The LD50 in mice and rats for pyrantel tartrate is 170 mg/kg; >690 mg/kg for pyrantel pamoate in dogs.
  • Chronic dosing of pyrantel pamoate in dogs resulted in clinical signs when given at 50 mg/kg/day, but not at 20 mg/kg/day over 3 months.
  • Clinical signs of toxicity may include increased respiratory rates, profuse sweating (in species with sweat glands), ataxia, or other cholinergic effects.

飼主向け情報

  • 薬の成分が瓶の底に沈殿するため、投与量を吸い上げる前に懸濁液を​よく振って​ください。
  • 直接口から投与するか、少量の食事に混ぜて与えることができます。投薬の前後に絶食させる必要はありません。
  • 投与後24〜48時間以内に、ペットの便の中に完全な形、または死んだ寄生虫が見られることがあります。これは正常なことであり、薬が効いている証拠です。
  • この薬は非常に安全であり、非常に幼い子犬や子猫にも使用できます。副作用は非常にまれですが、時折嘔吐が見られることがあります。
  • 1回の投与では移行期の幼虫を死滅させることはできないため、獣医師の指示に従って再投与のスケジュールを守ってください。
