  • ACCOLATE® (Zafirlukast) TABLETS DESCRIPTION
    ACCOLATE® (zafirlukast) TABLETS DESCRIPTION Zafirlukast is a synthetic, selective peptide leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA), with the chemical name 4-(5-cyclopentyloxy-carbonylamino-1-methyl-indol-3-ylmethyl)-3-methoxy-N-o­ tolylsulfonylbenzamide. The molecular weight of zafirlukast is 575.7 and the structural formula is: The empirical formula is: C31H33N3O6S Zafirlukast, a fine white to pale yellow amorphous powder, is practically insoluble in water. It is slightly soluble in methanol and freely soluble in tetrahydrofuran, dimethylsulfoxide, and acetone. ACCOLATE is supplied as 10 and 20 mg tablets for oral administration. Inactive Ingredients: Film-coated tablets containing croscarmellose sodium, lactose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, hypromellose, and titanium dioxide. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Mechanism of Action: Zafirlukast is a selective and competitive receptor antagonist of leukotriene D4 and E4 (LTD4 and LTE4), components of slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRSA). Cysteinyl leukotriene production and receptor occupation have been correlated with the pathophysiology of asthma, including airway edema, smooth muscle constriction, and altered cellular activity associated with the inflammatory process, which contribute to the signs and symptoms of asthma. Patients with asthma were found in one study to be 25­ 100 times more sensitive to the bronchoconstricting activity of inhaled LTD4 than nonasthmatic subjects. In vitro studies demonstrated that zafirlukast antagonized the contractile activity of three leukotrienes (LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4) in conducting airway smooth muscle from laboratory animals and humans. Zafirlukast prevented intradermal LTD4-induced increases in cutaneous vascular permeability and Reference ID: 3407275 inhibited inhaled LTD4-induced influx of eosinophils into animal lungs. Inhalational challenge studies in sensitized sheep showed that zafirlukast suppressed the airway responses to antigen; this included both the early- and late-phase response and the nonspecific hyperresponsiveness.

Gaithersburg,MD Nishi Dhupa, BVM, MRCVS, DACVECC, DACVIM Cornell University ABSTRACT: Treatment of feline bronchial asthma is directed toward promoting bron- chodilation, reducing inflammation, and restoring normal mucus clearance. Therefore, determining and subsequently eliminating the inciting cause(s) of feline bronchial asthma should be the therapeutic priority of veterinary practitioners. Emergency treatment, including supplemental oxygen ther- apy, glucocorticoids, β2-adrenergic agonists, and methylxanthines, is often indicated. Long-term therapy is aimed at further reducing inflam- matory cell infiltration into the tracheobronchial tree and may be accom- plished with inhalant glucocorticoids and antileukotriene medications. eline bronchial asthma is a reversible respiratory condition of the lower airways char- acterized by altered airway immunosensitivity. Many medications, including β2- Fadrenergic agonists and glucocorticoids, are available for treating acute and chronic feline bronchial asthma (see boxes on page 427; Table 1). In addition, novel therapies, most notably adjuvant magnesium and leukotriene modifiers, are currently being *A companion article on intensely investigated as therapeutic adjuncts in managing feline bronchial asthma. pathophysiology and diagnosis appears on page 418. β2-ADRENERGIC AGONISTS β2-adrenergic agonists are used extensively in treating acute
