Oneclapz 75

Oneclapz 75 Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

(Oneclapz 75) is an inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Lopirel (Oneclapz 75) selectively inhibits the binding of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to its platelet receptor and the subsequent ADP-mediated activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex, thereby inhibiting platelet aggregation.

Oneclapz 75 is a prodrug of a platelet inhibitor used to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. It has a long duration of action as it is taken once daily and a large therapeutic window as it is given in doses of 75-300mg daily.

Oneclapz 75 is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), Cardiovascular Events, Atherothrombotic events

How Oneclapz 75 works

Oneclapz 75 is metabolized to its active form by carboxylesterase-1. The active form is a platelet inhibitor that irreversibly binds to P2Y12 ADP receptors on platelets. This binding prevents ADP binding to P2Y12 receptors, activation of the glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex, and platelet aggregation.

Dosage

Oneclapz 75 dosage

The recommended dose of Lopirel (Oneclapz 75) is 75 mg once daily with or without food.

Side Effects

Toxicity

A single dose of clopidogrel at 1500-2000mg/kg was lethal to mice and rats while 3000mg/kg was lethal to baboons. Symptoms of overdose include vomiting, breathing difficulty, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and prostration. Oneclapz 75 is irreversibly bound to platelets for their lifetime, which is approximately 11 days. Overdoses of clopidogrel can be treated with platelet transfusions to restore clotting ability.

Precaution

As with other anti-platelet agents, Oneclapz 75 should be used with caution in patients who may be at risk of increased bleeding from trauma, surgery, or other pathological conditions. Oneclapz 75 should be discontinued 7 days prior to surgery. Oneclapz 75 should be used with caution in hepatically impaired patients who may have bleeding diatheses.

Interaction

Food Interaction

  • Take with or without food.

Volume of Distribution

The apparent volume of distribution of clopidogrel is 39,240±33,520L.

Elimination Route

A 75mg oral dose of clopidogrel is 50% absorbed from the intestine. Oneclapz 75 can be taken with or without food. A meal decreases the AUC of the active metabolite by 57%. The active metabolite of clopidogrel reaches a maximum concentration after 30-60 minutes. Oneclapz 75 reached a Cmax of 2.04±2.0ng/mL in 1.40±1.07h.

The AUC for a 300mg oral dose of clopidogrel was 45.1±16.2ng*h/mL for poor metabolizers, 65.6±19.1ng*h/mL for intermediate metabolizers, and 104.3±57.3ng*h/mL for extensive metabolizers. The Cmax was 31.3±13ng/mL for poor metabolizers, 43.9±14ng/mL for intermediate metabolizers, and 60.8±34.3ng/mL for extensive metabolizers.

Half Life

That half life of clopidogrel is approximately 6 hours following a 75mg oral dose while the half life of the active metabolite is approximately 30 minutes.

Clearance

The clearance of a 75mg oral dose was 18,960±15,890L/h and for a 300mg oral dose was 16,980±10,410L/h.

Elimination Route

An oral dose of radiolabelled clopidogrel is excreted 50% in the urine and 46% in the feces over 5 days. The remainder of clopidogrel is irreversibly bound to platelets for their lifetime, or approximately 8-11 days.
