Tromethamine Injection is indicated for the prevention and correction of metabolic acidosis. In the following conditions it may help to sustain vital functions and thus provide time for treatment of the primary disease: Metabolic Acidosis Associated with Cardiac Bypass Surgery. Tromethamine Injection has been found to be primarily beneficial in correcting metabolic acidosis which may occur during or immediately following cardiac bypass surgical procedures. Correction of Acidity of ACD Blood in Cardiac Bypass Surgery. It is well known that ACD blood is acidic and becomes more acidic on storage. Tromethamine effectively corrects this acidity. …

Cómo tomarlo y con qué frecuencia
  • Tromethamine Injection is administered by slow intravenous infusion, by addition to pump-oxygenator ACD blood or other priming fluid or by injection into the ventricular cavity during cardiac arrest
  • For infusion by peripheral vein, a large needle should be used in the largest antecubital vein or an indwelling catheter placed in a large vein of an elevated limb to minimize chemical irritation of the alkaline solution during infusion
  • Catheters are recommended
  • Dosage and rate of administration should be carefully supervised to avoid overtreatment (alkalosis)
  • Pretreatment and subsequent determinations of blood values (e.g. pH, PCO 2 , PO 2 , glucose and electrolytes) and urinary output should be made as necessary to monitor dosage and progress of treatment
  • In general, dosage should be limited to an amount sufficient to increase blood pH to normal limits (7.35 to 7.45) and to correct acid-base derangements
  • The total quantity to be administered during the period of illness will depend upon the severity and progression of the acidosis
  • The possibility of some retention of tromethamine, especially in patients with impaired renal function, should be kept in mind
  • The intravenous dosage of Tromethamine Injection may be estimated from the buffer base deficit of the extracellular fluid in mEq/liter determined by means of the Siggaard-Andersen nomogram. …
Talk to a doctor first if
  • Tromethamine Injection is contraindicated in uremia and anuria
  • In neonates it is also contraindicated in chronic respiratory acidosis and salicylate intoxication
Warnings

Large doses of Tromethamine Injection may depress ventilation, as a result of increased blood pH and reduced CO 2 concentration. Thus, dosage should be adjusted so that blood pH is not allowed to increase above normal. In situations in which respiratory acidosis may be present concomitantly with metabolic acidosis, the drug may be used with mechanical assistance to ventilation. Care must be exercised to prevent perivascular infiltration since this can cause inflammation, necrosis and sloughing of tissue. …

Posibles efectos secundarios

Generally, side effects have been infrequent. Respiratory: Although the incidence of ventilatory depression is low, it is important to keep in mind that such depression may occur. Respiratory depression may be more likely to occur in patients who have chronic hypoventilation or those who have been treated with drugs which depress respiration. In patients with associated respiratory acidosis, tromethamine should be administered with mechanical assistance to ventilation. Vascular: Extreme care should be taken to avoid perivascular infiltration. Local tissue damage and subsequent sloughing may occur if extravasation occurs. Chemical phlebitis and venospasm also have been reported. …

If you take too much

Too rapid administration and/or excessive amounts of tromethamine may cause alkalosis, hypoglycemia, overhydration or solute overload. In the event of overdosage, discontinue the infusion, evaluate the patient and institute appropriate countermeasures. (See WARNINGS , PRECAUTIONS and ADVERSE REACTIONS ). The LD 50 values for the acute intravenous toxicity of Tromethamine Injection are influenced by the rate of infusion of the dose administered. Intravenous LD 50 Mice = 3,500 mg/kg Intravenous LD 50 Rats = 2,300 mg/kg

Si olvidas una dosis

Tómala en cuanto te acuerdes, salvo que falte poco para la siguiente. En ese caso, sáltate la olvidada. Nunca tomes dos dosis a la vez para compensar. Revisa tu prospecto, porque algunos medicamentos son distintos.
