How Тауредон works

The precise mechanism of action is unknown. It is known that sodium aurothiomalate inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins. The predominant action appears to be a suppressive effect on the synovitis of active rheumatoid disease.

Toxicity

Overdosage symptoms are those of heavy metal toxicity; they include pruritus, dermatitis, stomatitis, vague gastrointestinal discomfort, albuminuria with or without a nephrotic syndrome, hematuria, agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenic purpura, and aplastic anemia.

Food Interaction

No interactions found.

Volume of Distribution

The apparent volume of distribution is 0.26 +/- 0.051 kg-1

Elimination Route

Gold sodium thiomalate solutions are rapidly absorbed following IM injection, with peak serum concentrations occurring in 3-6 hours.

Half Life

12.5 days

Clearance

7.0 ml/ kg/day

Elimination Route

The major route of elimination of an IV dose of gold sodium thiomalate is urinary excretion, with a mean of 35% of the dose found in the urine in ten days. Fecal elimination accounts for an additional 9.4% of the IV dose excreted in ten days, probably as a result of biliary secretion.
