Drug interaction
potentiates the effect of drugs that depress the central nervous system, such as opioid analgesics, barbiturates, sleeping pills, antihistamines, neuroleptics, etc. It also increases the effect of alcohol.
Pharmacodynamics
Ethifoxin hydrochloride belongs to the benzoxazine derivatives.
As an anxiolytic agent, ethi-foxin has an autonomous regulating effect. In vitro and in vivo studies in rats and mice, it was shown that the anxiolytic activity of ethifoxin is due to the dual mechanism of its action (direct and indirect) on GABA-A receptors, which improves GABA-ergic impulse transmission.
When directly acting on the GABA-A receptor by allosteric modulation, etifoxin binds mainly to the subunits (32 or RZ of the receptor; studies have shown that etifoxin binds to the GABA-A receptor at sites other than the binding site of benzodiazepines. The indirect effect is provided by increasing the synthesis of neurosteroids (by activating the mitochondrial translocator protein,), such as allopregna-nolone, which is also a positive allosteric modulator of the G AMK-A receptor.
Pharmacokinetics
it is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, quickly metabolized in the liver to the formation of several metabolites. One of the metabolites (diethylethyphoxine) is active, and its half-life is about 20 hours. Penetrates through the placental barrier.
The time to reach the maximum concentration in the blood is 2-3 hours, the half-life is about 6 hours.
It is excreted mainly in the urine in the form of metabolites, as well as in unchanged form in small quantities.
It is also excreted with bile.
