  • NOTE: The commercially available pentoxifylline product is a 400 mg extended-release tablet. Cutting or crushing the tablets may negate the extended-release characteristics and alter pharmacokinetics but splitting tablets may be necessary to administer or accurately dose. Avoid crushing tablets for small animal use.
  • ■ Give this medicine with food.
  • ■ Extended-release tablets can be split if necessary to give the appropriate dose. Crushing the tablets may increase the risk for side effects and should be avoided when possible.
  • The commercially available tablets should be stored in well-closed containers, protected from light at 20°C to 25°C (68°F -77°F).

概覽

戊酮可可鹼是一種合成的​甲基黃嘌呤衍生物​(結構上與茶鹼和咖啡因相關),具有獨特的血液流變學改善及免疫調節特性。

  • ​犬​:主要用於治療伴隨微血管受損的免疫介導性皮膚疾病,如​家族性犬皮肌炎​、耳廓邊緣皮脂漏/壞死及皮膚血管炎(如阿拉巴馬腐爛病)。也可作為異位性皮膚炎的輔助療法,並正被研究用於擴張性心肌病(DCM)。
  • ​馬​:作為皮膚血管炎、內毒素血症、舟狀骨病及胎盤炎的輔助治療。
  • ​貓​:偶爾與潑尼松龍(prednisolone)併用,以減輕與貓傳染性腹膜炎(FIP)相關的血管炎。

​臨床提示​:由於其對組織重塑和發炎的影響需要時間,皮膚疾病的臨床療效可能需要 4 到 8 週才能顯現。

作用機制

The exact mechanisms are multifaceted, combining rheological improvement with anti-inflammatory effects:

  • Phosphodiesterase (PDE) Inhibition: Inhibits erythrocyte PDE → increases intracellular cAMP → increases erythrocyte flexibility and deformability, allowing red blood cells to navigate compromised microvasculature.
  • Blood Viscosity Reduction: Reduces plasma fibrinogen and increases fibrinolytic activity.
  • Immunomodulation: PDE inhibition in leukocytes decreases the production of inflammatory cytokines, notably ​TNF-α​, reducing the negative effects of endotoxemia.
  • Enzyme Inhibition: In horses, it acts as a potent inhibitor of ​matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9)​ and a modest inhibitor of MMP-2, which may aid in preventing tissue degradation.

安全性與警告

禁忌症

  • Intolerance or hypersensitivity to pentoxifylline or other xanthines (e.g., theophylline, caffeine, theobromine)
  • Cerebral hemorrhage
  • Hypersensitivity to methylxanthines (e.g., theophylline, caffeine)
  • Cerebral or retinal hemorrhage
  • Severe hepatic or renal impairment (use with caution)

不良反應

  • Vomiting
  • Inappetence
  • Loose stools
  • Excitement
  • Nervousness
  • Dizziness (humans)
  • Headache (humans)
  • Erythema multiforme (rare in dogs)
  • Transient leukocytosis (horses IV)
  • Muscle fasciculations (horses IV)
  • Sweating on shoulders/flanks (horses IV)
  • Mild increases in heart rate (horses IV)
  • Anorexia
  • Diarrhea
  • Restlessness
  • Tachycardia
  • Tremors

注意事項

Caution in patients with severe hepatic or renal impairment, or those at risk for hemorrhage.

  • Pregnancy: FDA Category C. May be teratogenic at high dosages.
  • Nursing: Excreted in maternal milk. Use cautiously in nursing patients due to potential tumorigenicity seen in rats.

藥物相互作用

Antihypertensive drugs

May increase hypotensive effect when used concurrently

NSAIDs

Controversial in horses; may negate beneficial effects for endotoxemia, though some studies show superior efficacy when used with flunixin

Platelet-aggregation inhibitors (e.g., aspirin, clopidogrel)

Increased risk for bleeding

TheophyllineMajor

Serum levels of theophylline may be increased when used concurrently

WarfarinModerate

Increased risk of bleeding; use together with enhanced monitoring and caution

CiprofloxacinModerate

May increase pentoxifylline levels

AntihypertensivesMinor

Potential for additive hypotensive effects

監測

  • Clinical efficacy (resolution of dermatologic or vascular signs)
  • Adverse effects (GI upset, CNS signs)
  • Clinical response (resolution of skin lesions/improved blood flow)
  • Gastrointestinal tolerance
  • Signs of bleeding

藥物動力學

半衰期

Unknown6-7 hours (parent compound), 36 hours (active metabolite 1), 8 hours (active metabolite 5)

吸收

Horses: Rapidly absorbed after PO administration of crushed sustained-release tablets, with wide interpatient variation (bioavailability ~68%). Dogs: Bioavailability is approximately 50% with peak levels occurring 1-3 hours after dosing. Humans: Rapid and almost complete absorption, but undergoes a significant first-pass effect.

分佈

Distributive characteristics are not fully described, but it is known that the drug enters maternal milk.

代謝

Metabolized both in the liver and erythrocytes; all identified metabolites appear to be active.

排除

Excreted primarily via urine (inferred from human data).

過量

Signs of overdose in humans include flushing, seizures, hypotension, unconsciousness, agitation, fever, somnolence, GI distress, and ECG changes. One patient who ingested 80 mg/kg recovered completely. Overdoses should be treated using standard methods of appropriate gut emptying (emesis/lavage) and supportive therapies.
