Cryoserv

Cryoserv Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

A highly polar organic liquid, that is used widely as a chemical solvent. Because of its ability to penetrate biological membranes, it is used as a vehicle for topical application of pharmaceuticals. It is also used to protect tissue during cryopreservation. Cryoserv shows a range of pharmacological activity including analgesia and anti-inflammation.

Dimethyl Sulfoxide may have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and analgesic activities. Dimethyl Sulfoxide also readily penetrates cellular membranes. The membrane-penetrating ability of dimethyl sulfoxide may enhance diffusion of other substances through the skin. For this reason, mixtures of idoxuridine and dimethyl sulfoxide have been used for topical treatment of herpes zoster in the United Kingdom.

Uses

Cryoserv is a reversible mitogen-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1 (MEK1) and MEK2 inhibitor used to treat certain types of melanoma, metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, and locally advanced or metastatic anaplastic thyroid cancer.

For the symptomatic relief of patients with interstitial cystitis.

Cryoserv is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Interstitial Cystitis, Extravasation of chemotherapy drugs

How Cryoserv works

The mechanism of dimethyl sulfoxide's actions is not well understood. Cryoserv has demonstrated antioxidant activity in certain biological settings. For example, the cardiovascular protective effect of dimethyl sulfoxide in copper-deficient rats is thought to occur by an antioxidant mechanism. It is also thought that dimethyl sulfoxide's possible anti-inflammatory activity is due to antioxidant action.

Toxicity

The oral LD50 of dimethyl sulfoxide in the dog is greater than 10 gm/kg. It is improbable that this dosage level could be obtained with intravesical instillation of dimethyl sulfoxide in the patient.

Food Interaction

No interactions found.

Elimination Route

Readily and rapidly absorbed following administration by all routes and distributed throughout the body.

Elimination Route

Cryoserv and dimethyl sulfone are excreted in the urine and feces.
