Biotransformation /is/ hepatic and complete, mainly to the active metabolite hydrodolasetron (by means of the ubiquitous enzyme, carbonyl reductase). Further hydroxylation is mediated by cytochrome P450 CYP2D6 and further N-oxidation by both CYP3A and flavin monooxygenase.
The metabolism of dolasetron mesylate was studied in six healthy male volunteers who were given a single 300 mg oral dose of [14C]dolasetron mesylate. An average of 59% of the total radioactivity was recovered in the urine and 25% in the feces. Metabolites were quantitated in urine samples taken up to 36 hr post-dose. Reduced dolasetron (RD) accounted for 17-54% of the dose in urine. Hydroxylated metabolites of RD made up no more than 9% of the dose in urine. Most of the remaining urinary radioactivity consisted of conjugated metabolites of RD and hydroxy RD. Hydrolysis of selected urine samples showed that the glucuronide of RD was the most abundant conjugate in urine. A small percentage of the dose (< 1%) in urine was identified as the N-oxide of RD. Analysis of urine samples by chiral HPLC indicated that the R(+):S(-) ratio of RD was approximately 9:1.
The initial step in the metabolism of dolasetron or MDL 73,147EF [(2 alpha, 6 alpha, 8 alpha, 9a beta)-octahydro-3-oxo-2,6-methano-2H- quinolizin-8-yl 1H-indol-3-carboxylate, monomethanesulfonate] is the reduction of the prochiral carbonyl group to give a chiral secondary alcohol "reduced dolasetron." An HPLC method, using a chiral column to separate reduced dolasetron enantiomers, has been developed and used to measure enantiomers in urine of rats, dogs, and humans after dolasetron administration. In all cases, the reduction was enantioselective for the (+)-(R)-enantiomer, although the dog showed lower stereoselectivity, especially after iv administration. An approximate enantiomeric ratio (+/-) of 90:10 was found in rat and human urine. The contribution of further metabolism to this enantiomeric ratio was considered small as preliminary studies showed that oxidation of the enantiomeric alcohols by human liver microsomes demonstrated only minor stereoselectivity. Further evidence for the role of stereoselective reduction in man was obtained from in vitro studies, where dolasetron was incubated with human whole blood. The enantiomeric composition of reduced dolasetron formed in human whole blood was the same as that found in human urine after administration of dolasetron. Enantioselectivity was not due to differences in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of enantiomers, as iv or oral administration of rac-reduced dolasetron to rats and dogs lead to the recovery, in urine, of essentially the same enantiomeric composition as the dose administered. It is fortuitous that the (+)-(R)-enantiomer is predominantly formed by carbonyl reductase, as it is the more active compound.
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation:Little information is available on the use of dolasetron during breastfeeding. Until more data become available, dolasetron should be used with caution during breastfeeding. An alternate drug may be preferred.
◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants:A double-blind study randomized 160 women receiving an elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia to receive either sufentanil for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (standard care) or standard care plus dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine was given as 5 mcg/kg, followed by a continuous infusion of 0.5 mcg/kg per hour until the end of surgery. Patient in this latter group received dexmedetomidine plus sufentanil for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia postoperatively for 2 days. Both groups had 25 mg of dolasetron added to the patient-controlled intravenous analgesia solution and all mothers breastfed their infants. Both groups had good neonatal behavioral neurological assessments on days 1 and 2 postpartum.[1]
◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk:A double-blind study randomized 160 women receiving an elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia to receive either sufentanil for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (standard care) or standard care plus dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine was given as 5 mcg/kg, followed by a continuous infusion of 0.5 mcg/kg per hour until the end of surgery. Patient in this latter group received dexmedetomidine plus sufentanil for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia postoperatively for 2 days. Both groups had 25 mg of dolasetron added to the patient-controlled intravenous analgesia solution. Patients who received dexmedetomidine had a shorter time to the first lactation (28 vs 34 hours), achieved exclusive breastfeeding sooner (8 vs 11 days) and had a greater amount of milk on the second day postpartum.[1]
Concurrent use of cimetidine, which is a nonselective cytochrome P450 enzyme inhibitor, with dolasetron for 7 days has been found to result in a 24% increase in hydrodolasetron blood concentrations.
Basic treatment: Establish a patent airway (oropharyngeal or nasopharyngeal airway, if needed). Suction if necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilations if needed.

吸收、分配和排泄
口服多拉塞曲酮吸收良好,但由于迅速且完全代谢为羟基多拉塞曲酮,母药在血浆中很少被检测到。
Orally-administered dolasetron is well absorbed, but the parent drug is rarely detected in plasma due to rapid and complete metabolism to hydrodolasetron.
The apparent absolute bioavailability of oral dolasetron is approximately 75%. Food does not affect the bioavailability of dolasetron taken by mouth.
