개요

이트라코나졸은 합성된 고친유성 경구용 트리아졸계 항진균제로, 수의학에서 전신성 진균증(아스페르길루스증, 크립토코쿠스증, 분아균증, 히스토플라스마증 등) 및 표재성 피부사상균증과 말라세지아 감염 치료에 널리 사용됩니다.

​임상적 진주 및 약리학적 프로파일:​

  • ​우수한 효능:​ 케토코나졸과 같은 구형 이미다졸계보다 효능이 더 뛰어나며, 포유류의 호르몬 합성을 크게 억제하지 않아 내분비계 부작용이 적습니다.
  • ​조직 분포:​ 친유성 및 친각질성이 매우 높아 피부, 피지, 농에 고농도로 축적되므로 피부 진균 감염에 탁월한 효과를 보입니다.
  • ​제형의 중요성:​ 이트라코나졸의 흡수는 제형에 크게 의존합니다. 시판되는 캡슐제는 최적의 흡수를 위해 산성 위 환경과 음식물이 필요합니다. 시판 경구용 액제는 용해도를 높이기 위해 시클로덱스트린을 함유하고 있으며 공복 상태에서 가장 잘 흡수됩니다.
  • ​조제 경고:​ 벌크 분말을 이용한 임의 조제(Compounding)는 강력히 권장하지 않습니다. 이는 종종 혈중 농도를 치료 수준 이하로 떨어뜨리거나 측정 불가능하게 만들어 전신성 진균 감염 시 치명적일 수 있습니다.

작용 기전

Itraconazole is a fungistatic triazole.

​Mechanism of Action:​

  • ​Enzyme Inhibition:​ Itraconazole selectively inhibits the fungal cytochrome P450-dependent enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase.
  • ​Pathway Disruption:​ This inhibition blocks the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol (the primary sterol in fungal cell membranes) → leads to the accumulation of toxic 14α-methylsterols.
  • ​Membrane Permeability:​ The lack of ergosterol alters the cellular membrane structure → increases membrane permeability → allows leakage of cellular contents and impairs the uptake of purine and pyrimidine precursors.
  • ​Immunomodulation:​ Itraconazole also exhibits mild immune-suppressing activity, likely via the suppression of T-lymphocyte proliferation.

안전성·주의사항

금기사항

  • Hypersensitivity to itraconazole or other azole antifungals
  • Hepatic impairment (relative contraindication)
  • Achlorhydria or hypochlorhydria (relative contraindication)
  • Reduced cardiac function (relative, due to potential negative inotropic effects)
  • Pregnancy
  • Liver disease (avoid use if present)

부작용

  • Anorexia (most common in dogs)
  • Hepatotoxicity (increased ALT, jaundice)
  • Ulcerative skin lesions/vasculitis (dogs at high doses)
  • Limb edema (dogs at high doses)
  • Erythema multiforme (rare)
  • Toxic epidermal necrolysis (rare)
  • Vomiting
  • Weight loss
  • Depression (especially in cats and African grey parrots)
  • Diarrhoea
  • Salivation
  • Depression and apathy
  • Abdominal pain
  • Hepatic toxicosis
  • Ulcerative dermatitis
  • Limb oedema
  • Serious cutaneous drug eruptions (occasional)
  • Dose-related suppression of adrenal function

주의

Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment, achlorhydria, or reduced cardiac function (due to potential negative inotropic effects). African grey parrots are extremely sensitive to itraconazole and can develop severe anorexia and depression; reduced dosages or alternative antifungals are recommended. Do not use compounded capsules from bulk powders, as they may not yield an absorbable dosage form, leading to treatment failure in life-threatening infections. Safety during pregnancy is not established (teratogenic and embryotoxic in lab animals at high doses).

모니터링

  • Clinical Efficacy
  • Liver function tests (monthly ALT recommended with long-term therapy)
  • Appetite (anorexia is often the first sign of toxicity)
  • Physical assessment for ulcerative skin lesions in dogs
  • Liver enzymes (ALT, AST, ALP, Bilirubin) prior to and during prolonged treatment
  • Clinical signs of hepatotoxicity (anorexia, vomiting, jaundice)
  • Resolution of clinical signs and negative fungal cultures

약동학

흡수

Highly dependent on gastric pH and presence of food. Empty stomach bioavailability may be <50%; with food, it approaches 100%. The oral solution is better absorbed on an empty stomach and possesses adequate bioavailability. Compounded capsules from bulk powders may not be absorbed.

분포

Very high protein binding. Widely distributed to lipid-rich tissues (highly lipophilic). Skin, sebum, female reproductive tract, and pus have concentrations greater than serum. Minimal concentrations in CSF, urine, aqueous humor, and saliva.

대사

Metabolized by the liver to many different metabolites, including the active metabolite hydroxyitraconazole.

배설

Elimination may be a saturable process. Because of its long half-life, steady-state plasma levels are not reached for at least 6 days without a loading dose.

과다투여

There is very limited information on acute toxicity.

  • ​Decontamination:​ Giving oral antacids may help reduce absorption. If a large overdose occurs, consider gut emptying and provide supportive therapy.
  • ​Clearance:​ Itraconazole is not removed by dialysis.
  • ​Chronic Toxicity:​ In studies, dogs receiving 40 mg/kg PO daily for 3 months demonstrated no overt toxicity.

보호자 정보

​중요 투여 지침:​

  • ​캡슐제:​ 적절한 흡수를 위해 반드시 ​음식과 함께​ 투여해야 합니다. 고양이와 소형견의 경우 캡슐을 열어 알갱이를 소량의 맛있는 음식(예: 버터, 치즈, 통조림 사료)에 섞어 줄 수 있습니다.
  • ​경구용 액제:​ 포유류의 경우 이상적으로 ​공복​ 상태에서 투여해야 합니다.

​주의 깊게 살펴볼 사항:​

  • ​식욕 부진​은 약물이 간에 영향을 미치고 있다는 첫 번째 징후인 경우가 많습니다. 반려동물이 먹이를 거부하거나, 구토를 시작하거나, 눈/잇몸이 노랗게 변하는 것(황달)을 발견하면 즉시 수의사에게 연락하십시오.
  • 개의 경우 원인을 알 수 없는 피부 궤양이나 다리 부종이 있는지 관찰하십시오.

​안전 경고:​

  • ​벌크 분말로 조제된 약물은 사용하지 마십시오​. 흡수율이 매우 떨어져 치료 실패로 이어질 수 있으며, 이는 심각한 진균 감염에 있어 매우 위험합니다.
  • 수의사의 승인 없이 다른 약물(특히 제산제)과 함께 투여하지 마십시오.
