Alfaxalone Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Alfaxalone (Alfaxan, Vetoquinol) is a neurologically active steroid compound that induces general anaesthesia. Alfaxalone exerts its action by binding to GABA receptors on the neuronal cell surface, affecting cell membrane chloride ion transport. It has negligible analgesic properties at therapeutic doses. Alfaxalone may be administered either intravenously or intramuscularly, and due to the possibility of apnoea after intravenous induction this route should be reserved for cases where intubation can be achieved[2].
Uses
Anesthetic;nociception blocker
Biological Activity
A neurosteroid anesthetic that directly activates and potentiates GABA A receptor-activated membrane current (I GABA ). Efficacy but not potency is determined by the alpha subunit of the receptor (EC 50 values are 1.4, 1.8, 2.1, 2.4 and 2.5 μ M for α 1 β 1 γ 3, α 1 β 1 γ 1, β 1 γ 1, α 2 β 1 γ 2L and α 1 β 1 γ 2L isoforms respectively).
Mechanism of action
Alfaxalone's mechanism of action is chloride ion modulation associated with interaction with the neuronal membrane GABA A receptor[1].
Side effects
Alfaxalone is safe and effective at 12–15 mg/kg IM for routine noninvasive procedures and lasts approximately 40–45 min. The most common side effects are dose-dependent but transient hypotension (15 min), hypoventilation, and apnea. Higher doses of alfaxalone (12 mg/kg) may cause mild hypoxemia, which can be corrected by administration of supplemental oxygen via face mask. Muscle twitching occurs toward the end of immobilization and can be used as a sign of impending emergence[1].
