托曲珠利
**托曲珠利 (Toltrazuril)** 是一種三嗪酮類抗原蟲藥，主要在歐洲被核准用於治療家禽和豬的球蟲感染。在伴侶動物醫學中，常被標示外使用於治療多種原蟲感染。 **主要用途：** - 犬貓的球蟲症 - 等孢球蟲 (Isospora) 或 肝簇蟲 (Hepatozoon) 感染 - 貓弓形蟲的卵囊排泄期 - 爬蟲類（如鬆獅蜥）的嚴重寄生蟲感染 **臨床重點：** - 托曲珠利是**泊那珠利 (ponazuril)** 的母體化合物，後者在美國更為常用且易於取得。 - 雖然它能在患有美洲犬肝簇蟲症 (ACH) 的犬隻中引發極佳的初期臨床反應，但無法完全清除寄生蟲，且緩解通常是短暫的。 - **法規注意事項：** 本藥在美國並無市售，必須為了人道使用而合法專案進口。
作用機制: The exact mechanism of action is not completely understood, but as a triazinone derivative, it acts on all intracellular developmental stages of coccidia. - **Pathway:** It appears to inhibit protozoal enzyme systems → disrupts the division of the nucleus and the activity of the mitochondria → impairs the respiratory metabolism of the parasite → protozoal death. - It is rapidly metabolized in the liver to its active sulfone derivative, **ponazuril**.
