Membre invité 3 4 Résumé Un nombre important de molécules pharmaceutiques sont consommées en France et peuvent contaminer le compartiment aquatique (eaux de surface, eaux souterraines, eaux potables) ; ce qui a conduit les gestionnaires et le public à s’interroger sur la présence et l’impact de ces substances dans l’environnement. Cette interrogation s’inscrit dans un contexte plus général de préservation de l’environnement et des ressources en eau. Ainsi au niveau Français, le second Plan National Santé Environnement (PNSE2) intègre désormais une action spécifique pour les médicaments visant à « améliorer la connaissance et réduire les risques liés aux rejets de médicaments dans l’environnement, en engageant dès le mois de juillet 2009 les travaux en vue de l’élaboration d’un plan d’action national … ». Compte du nombre important de molécules consommées en France, il est nécessaire, avant d’établir un protocole de surveillance des milieux, d’établir une liste de molécules prioritaires à surveiller. Le travail présenté ici s’est donc attaché à proposer une liste pertinente de molécules à rechercher dans les eaux de surface, en tenant compte des concentrations attendues dans l’environnement et des effets biologiques sur les organismes aquatiques. L’approche présentée ici s’est focalisée sur la contamination des eaux de surface via la consommation des médicaments par la population Française. Les autres sources ponctuelles de contamination, comme les usines de fabrication ou de conditionnement n’ont pas été évaluées. Par ailleurs, le travail de priorisation a été effectué pour les médicaments à usage humain et ne concerne pas les médicaments vétérinaires. Plusieurs méthodologies ont été mises en place, en fonction des substances médicamenteuses évaluées, mais également en fonction de la disponibilité des données. Au final, 300 molécules parentes couvrant majorité des classes thérapeutiques et chimiques utilisées, ainsi qu’une cinquantaine de métabolites humains ont été évalués et des listes de molécules prioritaires justifiables du point de vue scientifique et de l’état actuel des connaissances ont pu être définies. De plus, d’une manière plus générale, ce travail a permis de dégager les conclusions suivantes : Du point de vue de la toxicologie environnementale : • il est nécessaire d’augmenter le jeu de données écotoxicologiques ; • le risque principal associé aux rejets médicamenteux est un risque sur le long terme ; • il est important de considérer la question de la contamination par les substances médicamenteuses sous l’angle des mélanges et de leurs effets associés à la présence des autres types de contaminants. Du point de vue de la chimie environnementale : • pour les médicaments à usage humain, les stations d’épuration urbaine restent le point d’entrée privilégié dans le milieu récepteur ; • les usines de fabrication et/ou de conditionnement peuvent représenter des sources localisées de contamination ; • les données concernant la rémanence et la dégradation des médicaments dans l’environnement sont limitées et un effort doit être réalisé sur ce point ; • un effort doit également être porté sur la compréhension du comportement des médicaments dans l’environnement : sorption sur les matières en suspension, au sédiment et accumulation dans les organismes ; • l’utilisation de données modélisées, notamment sur la présence et les niveaux de contamination dans l’environnement est une alternative intéressante et complémentaire aux mesures chimiques systématiques. 5 Du point de vue de la gestion du risque : • il est nécessaire de limiter autant que possible la dissémination environnementale des médicaments, cette limitation pouvant passer par les mesures suivantes : o le développement d’une réglementation pour les produits de santé intégrant les considérations environnementales, o l’amélioration de l’information au niveau des professionnels de santé et des patients ; o une consommation raisonnée des produits de santé ; o l’amélioration des procédés de collecte et de traitement des eaux usées ; o le développement de la « chimie verte » au niveau industriel et le prise en compte des considérations environnementales dans l’élaboration de nouvelles molécules ; • la bonne gestion de cette problématique passera par l’entente entre les différentes agences publiques et services responsables de la santé publique (AFSSAPS, AFSSA, hôpitaux), de l’environnement (AFSSET, Agences de l’Eau, DRIRE…) et par l’implication des industriels et des professionnels de santé en général (médecins et pharmaciens). 6 Remerciements A Paule VASSEUR , à qui je dois un certain nombre de choses, entre autres mon premier travail en évaluation de risque et l’occasion de soutenir une thèse.

  • Emcyt® Estramustine Phosphate Sodium Capsules DESCRIPTION
    Emcyt® estramustine phosphate sodium capsules DESCRIPTION Estramustine phosphate sodium, an antineoplastic agent, is an off-white powder readily soluble in water. EMCYT Capsules are white and opaque, each containing estramustine phosphate sodium as the disodium salt monohydrate equivalent to 140 mg estramustine phosphate, for oral administration. Each capsule also contains magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, and talc. Gelatin capsule shells contain the following pigment: titanium dioxide. Chemically, estramustine phosphate sodium is estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,17-diol(17ß)-,3­ [bis(2-chloroethyl)carbamate] 17-(dihydrogen phosphate), disodium salt, monohydrate. It is also referred to as estradiol 3-[bis(2-chloroethyl)carbamate] 17-(dihydrogen phosphate), disodium salt, monohydrate. Estramustine phosphate sodium has an empiric formula of C23H30Cl2NNa2O6P•H2O, a calculated molecular weight of 582.4, and the following structural formula: CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Estramustine phosphate (Figure 1) is a molecule combining estradiol and nornitrogen mustard by a carbamate link. The molecule is phosphorylated to make it water soluble. 1 Estramustine phosphate taken orally is readily dephosphorylated during absorption, and the major metabolites in plasma are estramustine (Figure 2), the estrone analog (Figure 3), estradiol, and estrone. Prolonged treatment with estramustine phosphate produces elevated total plasma concentrations of estradiol that fall within ranges similar to the elevated estradiol levels found in prostatic cancer patients given conventional estradiol therapy. Estrogenic effects, as demonstrated by changes in circulating levels of steroids and pituitary hormones, are similar in patients treated with either estramustine phosphate or conventional estradiol. 2 The metabolic urinary patterns of the estradiol moiety of estramustine phosphate and estradiol itself are very similar, although the metabolites derived from estramustine phosphate are excreted at a slower rate.
