概覽

​癒創甘油醚​(Guaifenesin,又稱 glyceryl guaiacolate 或 GG)是一種具有雙重用途的藥物。在獸醫學中,它主要作為​注射用肌肉鬆弛劑​,用於大型動物短時間麻醉(30-60分鐘)時,促進平穩無興奮的麻醉誘導與恢復。

  • ​麻醉輔助​:提供骨骼肌鬆弛,且不影響橫膈膜功能。
  • ​口服祛痰劑​:在人類與獸醫學中用於稀釋黏液以控制呼吸道疾病,儘管其臨床療效的確切證據仍有爭議。

​臨床要點​:癒創甘油醚本身並非麻醉劑;它能增強麻醉前給藥與麻醉劑的作用,必須在平衡麻醉方案(例如「三重滴注」或 GKX)中使用。它具有輕微的內在鎮痛與鎮靜特性。

作用機制

  • Muscle Relaxation: Acts centrally by depressing or blocking nerve impulse transmission at the internuncial neuron level of the subcortical areas of the brain, brainstem, and spinal cord → selective relaxation of skeletal muscles (including laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles, easing intubation) while sparing respiratory muscles.
  • Expectorant Action: Believed to stimulate gastric vagal receptors → triggers efferent parasympathetic reflexes → increases respiratory tract fluid volume and decreases mucus viscosity → facilitates removal of secretions via ciliary action and coughing.

安全性與警告

禁忌症

  • Concurrent use with physostigmine
  • Concentrations greater than 5% in ruminants (due to hemolysis risk)

不良反應

  • Mild hypotensive effect
  • Increase in cardiac rate
  • Thrombophlebitis (IV administration)
  • Perivascular tissue reaction
  • Hemolysis (especially in ruminants with >5% solutions)
  • Increased gastrointestinal motility

注意事項

Warning: Avoid giving ruminants concentrations of guaifenesin greater than 5% as hemolysis can occur.

  • Use of physostigmine is contraindicated.
  • May cause transient mild decreases in blood pressure and increases in cardiac rate.
  • Perivascular administration may cause tissue reaction; thrombophlebitis has been reported after IV injection.
  • Availability of the injectable form is currently an issue; compounding may be required.

藥物相互作用

Physostigmine

Contraindicated in horses receiving guaifenesin; exact interaction mechanism not elucidated by manufacturer.

Anticholinesterase agents (neostigmine, pyridostigmine, edrophonium)

Theoretically contraindicated based on the physostigmine interaction.

監測

  • Level of muscle relaxation
  • Cardiac rate
  • Respiratory rate

藥物動力學

半衰期

Ponies: Males ~85 minutes, Females ~60 minutes

吸收

Rapid following IV administration. Recumbency usually occurs within 2 minutes and light restraint persists for about 6 minutes. Muscle relaxation persists for 10-20 minutes after a single dose.

分佈

Reportedly crosses the placenta, but adverse effects in newborns have not been described.

代謝

Conjugated in the liver.

排除

Excreted into the urine.

過量

  • Margin of Safety: Reportedly 3 times the usual dose.
  • Clinical Signs: Apneustic breathing, nystagmus, hypotension, and contradictory muscle rigidity are associated with toxic levels.
  • Toxicity Reports: In dogs receiving 415-830 mg/kg, signs included hypothermia, mild tremors, ataxia, and vomiting. In cats receiving 132 mg/kg, signs included lethargy and anorexia.
  • Treatment: No specific antidote is available. Treatment is entirely supportive until the drug is cleared to sub-toxic levels.

儲存與穩定性

Stable in light and heat (less than melting point). Store in well-closed containers. Aqueous solutions may precipitate at temperatures <22°C (72°F); slight warming and agitation generally resolubilizes the drug. Fresh preparation is recommended, though a 10% solution in sterile water may be stored at room temperature for up to one week.

飼主須知

  • ​麻醉用途​:當用於手術時,獸醫團隊會透過靜脈注射給予此藥物,幫助您的動物放鬆並平穩地從麻醉中恢復。
  • ​口服止咳/呼吸道用途​:如果作為口服祛痰劑處方,請確保您的寵物有​充足的新鮮飲水​,因為保持水分對於稀釋呼吸道分泌物至關重要。
  • ​副作用​:按指示使用時通常非常安全。如果口服給藥,請觀察是否有輕微的嗜睡或腸胃不適(如狗的嘔吐)。

​注意​:未經獸醫明確許可,請勿將人類非處方止咳藥給予您的寵物,因為它們通常含有有毒添加劑(如木糖醇或解充血劑)。
