Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Nicotine, a pyridine alkaloid, is a stereo-selective nicotinic-cholinergic receptor agonist. Low doses cause an initial stimulation of autonomic ganglia, adrenal medulla, neuromuscular junction, and brain. High doses produce initial ganglionic stimulation followed by inhibition of neurotransmission leading to subsequent persistent depression of receptor activity. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Readily absorbed through mucous membranes and the skin. Time to peak plasma concentration: 4-15 min (intranasal); 15-30 min (oral inhalation); 25-30 min (gum); 2-10 hr (TTS). Distribution: Widely distributed into most body tissues and fluids. Crosses blood-brain barrier and placenta; enters breast milk. Volume of distribution: Approx 2-3 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: 5-20%. Metabolism: Metabolised mainly in the liver via CYP2A6 isoenzyme into cotinine and nicotine-N-oxide. Undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism. Excretion: Via urine (approx 10-20% as unchanged drug). Elimination half-life: 1-2 hr (intranasal and oral inhalation); approx 4 hr (TTS).
