Cupric oxide, or copper (II) oxide, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula CuO. Cupric oxide is used as a precursor in many copper-containing products such as wood preservatives and ceramics. Cupric oxide may be found in over-the-counter vitamin-mineral supplements as a source of Copper. The mean daily dietary intake of copper in adults ranges between 0.9 and 2.2 mg . Common routes of cupric oxide exposure include ingestion, dermal exposure and inhalation. Copper(II) oxide nanoparticles (NPCuO) have industrial applications as antimicrobial agents in textiles and paints, and catalysts in organic synthesis . They may also be produced from electronic wastes. Cupric oxide poses potential health and environmental concern due to toxic and mutagenic particles generating reactive oxygen species .

For pharmacodynamic information of copper, refer to drug entry for Copper. Copper(II) oxide nanoparticles are known to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to cytotoxicity . In a comparative toxicity assay, nanoparticles caused significant mitochondrial depolarization leading to DNA damage . In the human skin organ culture study, topical application of copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles induced inflammatory cytokine secretion and necrosis in vitro, indicating that the nanoparticles may adhere to the skin surface and react with the local acidic environment .

Zinc is an essential trace mineral, which means that it must be obtained from the diet since the body cannot make enough. Next to iron, zinc is the most abundant trace mineral in the body. Stored primarily in muscle, zinc is also found in high concentrations in red and white blood cells, the retina of the eye, bones, skin, kidneys, liver, and pancreas. Some of the symptoms of zinc deficiency include loss of appetite, poor growth, weight loss, impaired taste or smell, poor wound healing, skin abnormalities (such as acne, atopic dermatitis and psoriasis), hair loss, night blindness, hypogonadism and delayed sexual maturation, white spots on the fingernails and feelings of depression.

How Ccd Max works

For pharmacodynamic information of copper, refer to drug entry for Copper. Copper(II) oxide nanoparticles generate DNA-damaging reactive oxygen species at the nanoparticle surface or in solution by copper dissolved from the nanoparticle surface via Fenton-like reactions . In presence of H2O2, ascorbate, or both, copper (II) oxide generates hydroxyl radical, ascorbyl radical, and superoxide anion that interact with DNA, proteins, and lipids cause oxidative damage and cell death .

Dosage

Ccd Max dosage

Syrup-

Children under 10 kg: One teaspoonful 2 times daily.
Children within 10 to 30 kg: Two teaspoonful 1-3 times daily.
Adults and children over 30 kg body weight: Four teaspoonful 1-3 times daily.

Tablet-In the treatment of Diarrhoea Zinc should be given as soon as diarrhoea starts:

For infants between 2 to 6 months of age: 10 mg Zinc once daily for 10-14 days.
For children between 6 months to 5 years of age: 20 mg Zinc once daily for 10-14 days.

For other indications:

The recommended dose for children: 2 to 2.5 mg/kg/day.
Children under 10 kg: 10 mg Zinc 2 times daily.
Children within 10 to 30 kg: 20 mg Zinc 1-3 times daily.
Adults and children over 30 kg body weight: 40 mg Zinc 1-3 times daily.

Dispersible Tablet-

Place the tablet in a teaspoon
Add adequate amount of water
Let the tablet dissolve completely
Give the entire spoonful solution

Side Effects

In case of zinc mild side effects such as gastric ulcer, nausea, vomiting, metallic taste, headache, drowsiness have been observed.

Toxicity

Copper toxicity involves gastrointestinal irritation and liver and kidney toxicity. Reported No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Levels (NOAELs) of copper are in the range of 23-104 mg/kg bw/day, but kidney effects have been shown in male rats at levels as low as 10 mg/kg bw/day . Severe intoxication is associated with serum copper levels greater than 500 mcg/dL. The estimated lethal dose in an untreated adult is 10 to 20 g copper .

Precaution

Concurrent administration of Zinc salt with penicillamine might diminish the effect of Penicillamine. The absorption of Zinc, although poor, may be decreased by various compounds including some foods. Chelation may occur with tetracyclines.

Interaction

Zinc may inhibit the absorption of concurrently administered tetracyclines, when both are being given an interval of at least 3 hours.

Volume of Distribution

Following exposure to cupric oxide aerosols containing 50-80 mg/m^3 in rats, particles were found in plasma 6 hours post-exposure and copper oxide was also observed in the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney .

Elimination Route

Following oral administration, copper is mainly absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract from the stomach, duodenum, and jejunum. All other intakes of copper (inhalation and dermal) are insignificant in comparison to the oral route. The bioavailability of copper from cupric oxide depends on the solubilization of the oxide in the gastrointestinal tract . According to studies on cattle and swine, copper oxide displays low absorption rate and high excretion rate . In rats exposed to aerosols containing 50-80 mg/m^3, pulmonary uptake of copper oxide occurred .

Half Life

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Clearance

No pharmacokinetic data available.

Elimination Route

Copper undergoes biliary excretion .

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use

Pregnant women and nursing mothers should avoid zinc doses higher than RDA amounts.

Contraindication

It is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to Zinc.

Acute Overdose

Zinc sulphate is corrosive in overdose. Symptoms are corrosion and inflammation of the mucous membrane of the mouth and stomach; ulceration of the stomach followed by perforation may occur. Gastric lavage and emesis should be avoided. Demulcents such as milk should be given. Chelating agents such as sodium edetate may be useful.
