  • Oxytocin Carbetocin
    CARBETOCIN To prevent life-threatening pregnanCy CompliCations Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is commonly defined as a blood loss of at least 500 ml within 24 hours after birth, and affects about 5% of all women giving birth around the world. Globally, nearly one quarter of all maternal deaths are associated with PPH, and in most low-income countries it is the main cause of maternal mortality. The use of good quality prophylactic uterotonics can avoid the majority of PPH-associated complications during the third stage of labor (the time between the birth of the baby and complete expulsion of the placenta). In settings where oxytocin is unavailable or its quality cannot be guaranteed, the use of other injectable uterotonics (carbetocin, or if appropriate ergometrine/methylergometrine, or oxytocin and ergometrine fixed-dose combination) or oral misoprostol is recommended for the prevention of PPH. The use of carbetocin (100 μg, IM/IV) is recommended for the prevention of PPH for all births in contexts where its cost is comparable to other effective uterotonics. Carbetocin is only recommended for the prevention of postpartum hemorrhage and not recommended for other obstetric indications, such as labor induction, labor augmentation or treatment of PPH.

  • Therapeutic Potential of Vasopressin-Receptor Antagonists in Heart Failure
    J Pharmacol Sci 124, 1 – 6 (2014) Journal of Pharmacological Sciences © The Japanese Pharmacological Society Current Perspective Therapeutic Potential of Vasopressin-Receptor Antagonists in Heart Failure Yasukatsu Izumi1,*, Katsuyuki Miura2, and Hiroshi Iwao1 1Department of Pharmacology, 2Applied Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Osaka City University Medical School, Osaka 545-8585, Japan Received October 2, 2013; Accepted November 17, 2013 Abstract. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a 9-amino acid peptide that is secreted from the posterior pituitary in response to high plasma osmolality and hypotension. AVP has important roles in circulatory and water homoeostasis, which are mediated by oxytocin receptors and by AVP receptor subtypes: V1a (mainly vascular), V1b (pituitary), and V2 (renal). Vaptans are orally and intravenously active nonpeptide vasopressin-receptor antagonists. Recently, subtype-selective nonpeptide vasopressin-receptor agonists have been developed. A selective V1a-receptor antago- nist, relcovaptan, has shown initial positive results in the treatment of Raynaud’s disease, dysmen- orrhea, and tocolysis. A selective V1b-receptor antagonist, nelivaptan, has beneficial effects in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. Selective V2-receptor antagonists including mozavaptan, lixivaptan, satavaptan, and tolvaptan induce highly hypotonic diuresis without substantially affecting the excretion of electrolytes. A nonselective V1a/V2-receptor antagonist, conivaptan, is used in the treatment for euvolaemic or hypervolemic hyponatremia. Recent basic and clinical studies have shown that AVP-receptor antagonists, especially V2-receptor antagonists, may have therapeutic potential for heart failure. This review presents current information about AVP and its antagonists. Keywords: arginine vasopressin, diuretic, heart failure, vasopressin receptor antagonist 1. Introduction receptor blockers, diuretics, b-adrenoceptor blockers, digitalis glycosides, and inotropic agents (4).

  • Sodium Excretion in Response to Vasopressin and Selective Vasopressin Receptor Antagonists
    BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Sodium Excretion in Response to Vasopressin and Selective Vasopressin Receptor Antagonists Julie Perucca,*† Daniel G. Bichet,‡ Pascale Bardoux,* Nadine Bouby,*† and Lise Bankir*† *INSERM, Unite´ 872, and †UMRS 872, Universite´ Paris Descartes, Centre de Recherche des Cordeliers, Paris, France; and ‡Service de Ne´phrologie, Hoˆpital du Sacre´-Coeur, De´partement de Me´decine, Universite´ de Montre´al, Montre´al, Que´bec, Canada ABSTRACT The mechanisms by which arginine vasopressin (AVP) exerts its antidiuretic and pressor effects, via activation of V2 and V1a receptors, respectively, are relatively well understood, but the possible associated effects on sodium handling are a matter of controversy. In this study, normal conscious Wistar rats were acutely administered various doses of AVP, dDAVP (V2 agonist), furosemide, or the following selective non-peptide receptor antagonists SR121463A (V2 antagonist) or SR49059 (V1a antagonist). Urine flow and sodium excretion rates in the next 6 h were compared with basal values obtained on the previous day, after vehicle treatment, using each rat as its own control. The rate of sodium excretion decreased with V2 agonism and increased with V2 antagonism in a dose-dependent manner. However, for comparable increases in urine flow rate, the V2 antagonist induced a natriuresis 7-fold smaller than did furosemide. Vasopressin reduced sodium excretion at 1 ␮g/kg but increased it at doses Ͼ5 ␮g/kg, an effect that was abolished by the V1a antagonist. Combined V2 and V1a effects of endogenous vasopressin can be predicted to vary largely according to the respective levels of vasopressin in plasma, renal medulla (acting on interstitial cells), and urine (acting on V1a luminal receptors).
