洛哌丁胺
洛哌丁胺是一種合成的、具周邊作用的哌啶衍生物鴉片類促效劑,在獸醫學中主要用作止瀉藥和胃腸道(GI)動力調節劑。 與許多其他鴉片類藥物不同,洛哌丁胺是血腦屏障處 **P-醣蛋白 (P-gp)** 藥物排出幫浦的受質。在正常動物中,這能防止藥物在中樞神經系統 (CNS) 中積聚,從而將典型的鴉片類神經副作用降至最低。 > **臨床要點:** 洛哌丁胺對於緩解非感染性腹瀉(例如由 toceranib 等藥物引起的化療相關腹瀉)非常有效。然而,由於 **ABCB1-1Δ (MDR1) 基因突變**,在牧羊犬品種(如牧羊犬、澳洲牧羊犬)中使用時必須極度謹慎,甚至完全避免。在這些犬隻中,有缺陷的 P-gp 幫浦會讓洛哌丁胺穿過血腦屏障,即使在標準劑量下也會導致嚴重且可能致命的神經毒性。
作用機制: Loperamide exerts its antidiarrheal effects through multiple mechanisms within the gastrointestinal tract: * **μ-opioid receptor agonism:** Binds to mu-receptors in the myenteric plexus of the intestinal wall → inhibits the release of acetylcholine and prostaglandins → reduces peristalsis and increases intestinal transit time, allowing for greater fluid absorption. * **δ-opioid receptor agonism:** Binds to delta-receptors → decreases intestinal secretion induced by cholera toxin and prostaglandins. * **Calcium channel modulation:** Inhibits diarrheas caused by factors utilizing calcium as a second messenger (non-cAMP/cGMP mediated). * **Mucosal absorption:** Directly enhances the mucosal absorption of water and electrolytes.

監測
- Clinical efficacy (resolution of diarrhea)
- Fluid and electrolyte status (especially in severe diarrhea)
- CNS effects (sedation, ataxia, depression), particularly if using high dosages or in susceptible breeds
- Fecal consistency and frequency
- Signs of constipation or paralytic ileus
- Neurological status (watch for sedation or ataxia, especially in at-risk breeds)
- Hydration status
過量
In dog toxicity studies, doses of 1.25-5 mg/kg/day produced **vomiting, depression, severe salivation, and weight loss**. > **CRITICAL WARNING:** Breeds with a defective MDR1 (ABCB1-1Δ) gene are profoundly more sensitive to CNS depression with loperamide than other breeds and have shown clinical signs of toxicity at doses as low as **0.06 mg/kg**. Common clinical signs of overdose include diarrhea, vomiting, lethargy, anorexia, weakness, and hypersalivation. **Treatment:** * Follow standard GI decontamination protocols. * **Avoid apomorphine** for emesis, as it can have additive CNS or respiratory depressant effects. * **Naloxone** may be used to treat severe CNS/respiratory depression; higher than usual doses of naloxone may be required to reverse loperamide toxicity.
