DIAZOXIDE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Diazoxide is a nondiuretic derivative of thiazides that dramatically reduces blood pressure by direct relaxation of smooth muscles of the arterioles, possibly as a result of calcium channel activation of smooth musculature in arterioles. It has a weak effect on the venous system and on the heart. In addition to hypotensive action, diazoxide causes a sharp increase in the level of glucose in the blood as a result of the inhibition of insulin release from adrenal glands. Some of the undesirable effects are water and sodium ion retention in the body and increased concentrations of uric acid in the blood. It is used in urgent situations where blood pressure needs to be reduced in severe hypertension. Diazoxide is not used for essential hypertension. A synonym of this drug is hyperstat.
Chemical Properties
White Solid
Originator
Eudemine,Allen and Hanburys,UK,1970
Uses
Diazoxide has traditionally been used therapeutically for its antihypertensive and hyperglycemic properties. It acts as a potent arteriolar vasodilator in the short-term treatment of acute hypertension, malignant hypertension, and occasionally, in cases of pregnancy-induced hypertension. By relaxing peripheral arterioles of smooth muscle cells, peripheral vascular resistance is reduced. In rare cases, cardiac and pulmonary effects have occurred in neonates and in infants. In the treatment of hypertensive crisis with 300 mg of IV diazoxide, angina, myocardial and cerebral infarction, ischemia, and optic nerve damage could ensue. Diazoxide is used also in the management of hypoglycemia secondary to hyperinsulinism in adults with inoperable islet cell adenoma or carcinoma, or extrapancreatic malignancy; and in infants and children with leucine sensitivity, islet cell hyperplasia, nesidioblastosis, extrapancreatic malignancy, islet cell adenoma, or adenomatosis. In the treatment of hypoglycemia due to hyperinsulinism, diazoxide is an oral agent that decreases insulin release from the pancreas, enhancing glycogenolysis and inhibiting the uptake of glucose.
Uses
wound healing agent
Uses
Diazoxide reduces status epilepticus neuron damage in diabetes.
Definition
ChEBI: A benzothiadiazine that is the S,S-dioxide of 2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine which is substituted at position 3 by a methyl group and at position 7 by chlorine. A peripheral vasodilator, it increases the oncentration of glucose in the plasma and inhibits the secretion of insulin by the beta- cells of the pancreas. It is used orally in the management of intractable hypoglycaemia and intravenously in the management of hypertensive emergencies.
brand name
Hyperstat (Schering); Proglycem (Baker Norton).
Therapeutic Function
Antihypertensive
Biological Functions
Diazoxide (Hyperstat) is chemically similar to the thiazide diuretics. It is devoid of diuretic activity and causes Na+ and water retention. Diazoxide is a very potent vasodilator and is available only for intravenous use in the treatment of hypertensive emergencies. The mechanism by which diazoxide relaxes vascular smooth muscle is related to its ability to activate potassium channels and produce a hyperpolarization of the cell membrane.
General Description
Diazoxide is 7-chloro-3-methyl-4H-benzo[e][1,2,4]thiadiazine-1,1-dioxide , and is currentlyavailable in the United States only as a 50-mg/mLoral suspension (Proglycem); discontinued formulations includedcapsules for oral administration, and injectable formsthat typically found use for indications other than hypoglycemicconditions. Diazoxide is a cyclic benzenesulfonamide,although the free acid in solution can exist in threetautomeric forms, and the 4H tautomer most likely predominatesto a very high proportion. Partly because of theadditional nitrogen in the quinazoline ring structure, themolecule is somewhat more acidic (pKa～8.4, 8.6)than benzenesulfonamide (pKa～10).
General Description
Diazoxide is used as the sodium salt of7-chloro-3-methyl-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide(Hyperstat IV). Diazoxide lowers peripheral vascular resistance,increases cardiac output, and does not compromiserenal blood flow.
This is a des-sulfamoyl analog of the benzothiazine diureticsand has a close structural similarity to chlorothiazide. Itwas developed intentionally to increase the antihypertensiveaction of the thiazides and to minimize the diuretic effect.
Biological Activity
Antihypertensive, activates ATP-dependent K + channels. Induces activation of PKC ε , an intermediate in the opening of mitoK ATP channels, results in cardioprotection against hypoxia-induced death. Blocks desensitization of AMPA receptors.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Selective ATP-sensitive K+ channel activator in both vascular smooth muscle and pancreatic β-cells; antihypertensive.
Mechanism of action
Diazoxide reduces peripheral vascular resistance and blood pressure by a direct vasodilating effect on the VSM with a
mechanism similar to that described for minoxidil by activating (opening) the ATP-modulated potassium channel.
Thus, diazoxide prolongs the opening of the potassium channel, sustaining greater vasodilation on arterioles than on
veins. The greatest hypotensive effect is observed in patients with malignant hypertension. Although oral or slow IV
administration of diazoxide can produce a sustained fall in blood pressure, rapid IV administration is required for
maximum hypotensive effects, especially in patients with malignant hypertension. Diazoxide-induced decreases in
blood pressure and peripheral vascular resistance are accompanied by a reflex response, resulting in an increased
heart rate, cardiac output, and left ventricular ejection rate. In contrast to the thiazide diuretics, diazoxide causes
sodium and water retention and decreased urinary output, which can result in expansion of plasma and extracellular
fluid volume, edema, and congestive heart failure, especially during prolonged administration.
Diazoxide increases blood glucose concentration (diazoxide-induced hyperglycemia) by several different mechanisms:
by inhibiting pancreatic insulin secretion, by stimulating release of catecholamines, or by increasing hepatic release of
glucose. The precise mechanism of inhibition of insulin release has not been elucidated but, possibly, may result
from an effect of diazoxide on cell-membrane potassium channels and calcium flux.
Pharmacology
The hemodynamic effects of diazoxide are similar to those of hydralazine and minoxidil. It produces direct relaxation of arteriolar smooth muscle with little effect on capacitance beds. Since it does not impair cardiovascular reflexes, orthostasis is not a problem. Its administration is, however, associated with a reflex increase in cardiac output that partially counters its antihypertensive effects. Propranolol and other -blockers potentiate the vasodilating properties of the drug. Diazoxide has no direct action on the heart. Although renal blood flow and glomerular filtration may fall transiently, they generally return to predrug levels within an hour.
Pharmacokinetics
Following rapid IV administration, diazoxide produces a prompt reduction in blood pressure, with maximum hypotensive effects occurring within 5 minutes. The duration of its hypotensive effect varies from 3 to 12 hours, but ranges from 30 minutes to 72 hours have been observed. The elimination half-life of diazoxide following a single oral or IV dose has been reported to range from 21 to 45 hours in adults with normal renal function. In patients with renal impairment, the half-life is prolonged. Approximately 90% of the diazoxide in the blood is bound to plasma proteins. Approximately 20 to 50% of diazoxide is eliminated unchanged in the urine, along with its major metabolites, resulting from the oxidation of the 3-methyl group to its 3-hydroxymethyl- and 3-carboxyl-metabolites.
Clinical Use
Diazoxide is used by intravenous injection as a rapidly acting antihypertensiveagent for emergency reduction of blood pressurein hospitalized patients with accelerated or malignanthypertension. More than 90% is bound to serum protein, andcaution is needed when it is used in conjunction with otherprotein-bound drugs that may be displaced by diazoxide.The injection is given rapidly by the intravenous route toensure maximal effect. The initial dose is usually 1 mg/kg ofbody weight, with a second dose given if the first injectiondoes not lower blood pressure satisfactorily within 30 minutes.Further doses may be given at 4- to 24-hour intervalsif needed. Oral antihypertensive therapy is begun as soon aspossible.
Clinical Use
In contrast to the acute clinical uses of glucagon, diazoxidefinds use in chronic hypoglycemic conditions: inoperableislet cell adenoma or carcinomas, extrapancreatic malignanciesof insulin-secreting cells, or islet cell hyperplasias. Inchildren, additional indications include congenital hyperinsulinemia124and leucine sensitivity. Experimentally, diazoxideis among an array of ATP-sensitive potassium channel openersbeing studied for intermittently bringing aboutβ-cell rest.
Side effects
Since diazoxide is not often used for long-term treatment,
toxicities associated with chronic use are rare.The
chief concern is the side effects associated with the increased
workload on the heart, which may precipitate
myocardial ischemia and Na+ and water retention.
These undesirable effects can be controlled by concurrent
therapy with a β-blocker and a diuretic.
Diazoxide may cause hyperglycemia, especially in
diabetics, so if the drug is used for several days, blood
glucose levels should be measured.
When used in the treatment of toxemia, diazoxide
may stop labor, because it relaxes uterine smooth muscle.
Synthesis
7-chloro-3-methyl-2-H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-1,1-dioxide (21.3.14), is synthesized by condensating 2-aminosulfonyl-4-chloroaniline with triethyl orthoacetate.
Veterinary Drugs and Treatments
Oral diazoxide is used in canine and ferret medicine for the treatment
of hypoglycemia secondary
to hyperinsulin secretion (e.g., insulinoma).
Insulinomas are apparently very rare in the cat; there is
little experience with this drug in that species.
In human medicine, intravenous diazoxide is sometimes used for
treating severe hypertension.
Drug interactions
Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Antihypertensives and vasodilators: enhanced
hypotensive effect.
MAOIs: withdraw at least 14 days before starting
diazoxide
Phenytoin: may reduce phenytoin levels.
Environmental Fate
Diazoxide is a potassium channel activator, which causes local relaxation in smooth muscles by increasing membrane permeability to potassium ions. Consequently, voltage-gated calcium ion channels are ineffective, inhibiting the generation of an action potential. The primary mechanism by which diazoxide lowers blood pressure is by direct relaxation of medium sized blood vessels. The cardiac output and renin secretion increases, resulting in elevated angiotensin II levels and retention of salt and water. When used to treat low blood sugar, diazoxide decreases insulin release from the pancreas.
Metabolism
Diazoxide lowers blood pressure within 3 to 5 minutes after rapid intravenous injection, and its duration of action may be 4 to 12 hours. Interestingly, if diazoxide is either injected slowly or infused its hypotensive action is quite modest.This is believed to be due to a rapid and extensive binding of the drug to plasma proteins. Both the liver and kidney contribute to its metabolism and excretion.The plasma half-life is therefore prolonged in patients with chronic renal failure.
