Zolmitriptan Capsules

Pharmacological action: Zolmitriptan is a selective 5HTIB/ID receptor agonist. It causes intracranial vasoconstriction and inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory neuropeptides by stimulating 5HTIB/ID receptors on intracranial blood vessels (including arteriovenous anastomoses) and sympathetic nerves of the trigeminal nervous system. Toxicological studies, genotoxicity: In the Ames test, 2 of 5 strains of Salmonella typhi showed mutagenic effects in the presence of metabolic activators. The results of the in vitro mammalian cell mutation test (CHO/HGPRT) were negative. In vivo and in vitro human lymphocyte tests, zolmitriptan showed chromosomal fission effects regardless of the presence of metabolic activators; this effect was not seen in the in vivo micronucleus test in mice. No genotoxicity was shown in the unprogrammed DNA synthesis test. Reproductive toxicity: Male and female rats were given zolmitriptan before mating and during implantation, with a dose of 400 mg/kg/day (the exposure at this dose is about 3000 times that of the maximum recommended human dose of 10 mg/day), and no damage to fertility was shown. In reproductive toxicity studies in rats and rabbits, oral administration of zolmitriptan to pregnant animals resulted in embryolethality and fetal abnormalities. Oral administration of zolmitriptan to pregnant rats during organogenesis at 100, 400, and 1200 mg/kg/day (maternal plasma exposures were approximately 280, 1100, and 5000 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 10 mg, respectively) resulted in a dose-related increase in embryonic mortality, which was statistically significant at the higher doses. High doses produced maternal toxicity, as evidenced by reduced maternal weight gain during pregnancy. In a similar rabbit study, embryonic mortality was increased at maternally toxic doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg/day (maternal plasma exposures were equivalent to 11 and 42 times the human exposure at the maximum recommended daily dose of 10 mg). At the 30 mg/kg/day dose, an increased incidence of fetal malformations (sternal fusion, rib anomalies) and variations (major vascular variations, irregular rib ossification pattern) was observed. The no-effect dose was 3 mg/kg/day (equivalent to human exposure at the 10 mg dose). When female rats were given zolmitriptan during pregnancy, delivery and lactation, the incidence of hydronephrosis in offspring was found to increase at a maternal toxic dose of 400 mg/kg/day (1,100 times the human exposure). One hour after lactating rats were given zolmitriptan, the drug level in milk was equivalent to the maternal plasma level, and four hours later it was four times the plasma level. Carcinogenicity: A carcinogenicity study of zolmitriptan was conducted on mice and rats at a dose of 400 mg/kg/d administered by oral gavage. The dosing period for female and male mice was 92 weeks and 85 weeks, respectively. The exposure at the highest dose (plasma AUC of the prototype drug) was approximately 800 times that of a single dose of 10 mg (maximum recommended daily dose) in humans. As a result, zolmitriptan had no effect on the incidence of tumors. In the rat experiment, the control, low-dose, and medium-dose groups were dosed for 104 to 105 weeks, and the high-dose group was killed after 101 weeks (male) and 86 weeks (female) due to excessive mortality. As a result, only the 400 mg/kg/day (approximately 3000 times the exposure dose of humans after taking 10 mg) group showed an increase in the incidence of thyroid follicular cell hyperplasia and thyroid follicular cell adenomas in male rats.
