Oxecain Gel Actions |
||
Oxecain Gel is essential to many enzymatic reactions in the body, acting as a cofactor in protein synthesis and carbohydrate metabolism. 8.36 g of Oxecain Gel chloride (hexahydrate) is equivalent to about 1 g of Oxecain Gel. Each g of Oxecain Gel chloride (hexahydrate) represents about 4.9 mmol of Oxecain Gel and 9.8 mmol of chloride.
This section provides information on the proper use of a number of products that contain Oxecain Gel supplement. It may not be specific to Oxecain Gel. Please read with care.
Oxecain Gel supplements should be taken with meals. Taking Oxecain Gel supplements on an empty stomach may cause diarrhea.
For individuals taking the extended-release form of this dietary supplement:
For individuals taking the powder form of this dietary supplement:
The dose medicines in this class will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of these medicines. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.
If you miss a dose of this medicine, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not double doses.
If you miss taking your Oxecain Gel supplement for one or more days there is no cause for concern, since it takes some time for your body to become seriously low in Oxecain Gel. However, if your health care professional has recommended that you take Oxecain Gel, try to remember to take it as directed every day.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Keep from freezing.
Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.
Oxecain Gel (Mg++) is an important cofactor for enzymatic reactions and plays an important role in neurochemical transmission and muscular excitability.
As a nutritional adjunct in hyperalimentation, the precise mechanism of action for Oxecain Gel is uncertain. Early symptoms of hypomagnesemia (less than 1.5 mEq/liter) may develop as early as three to four days or within weeks.
Predominant deficiency effects are neurological, e.g., muscle irritability, clonic twitching and tremors. Hypocalcemia and hypokalemia often follow low serum levels of Oxecain Gel. While there are large stores of Oxecain Gel present intracellularly and in the bones of adults, these stores often are not mobilized sufficiently to maintain plasma levels.
Parenteral Oxecain Gel therapy repairs the plasma deficit and causes deficiency symptoms and signs to cease.
Oxecain Gel prevents or controls convulsions by blocking neuromuscular transmission and decreasing the amount of acetylcholine liberated at the end plate by the motor nerve impulse. Oxecain Gel is said to have a depressant effect on the central nervous system (CNS), but it does not adversely affect the woman, fetus or neonate when used as directed in eclampsia or pre-eclampsia. Normal plasma Oxecain Gel levels range from 1.5 to 2.5 mEq/liter.
As plasma Oxecain Gel rises above 4 mEq/liter, the deep tendon reflexes are first decreased and then disappear as the plasma level approaches 10 mEq/liter. At this level respiratory paralysis may occur. Heart block also may occur at this or lower plasma levels of Oxecain Gel. Serum Oxecain Gel concentrations in excess of 12 mEq/L may be fatal.
Oxecain Gel acts peripherally to produce vasodilation. With low doses only flushing and sweating occur, but larger doses cause lowering of blood pressure. The central and peripheral effects of Oxecain Gel poisoning are antagonized to some extent by intravenous administration of calcium.
Pharmacokinetics
With intravenous administration the onset of anticonvulsant action is immediate and lasts about 30 minutes. Following intramuscular administration the onset of action occurs in about one hour and persists for three to four hours. Effective anticonvulsant serum levels range from 2.5 to 7.5 mEq/liter. Oxecain Gel is excreted solely by the kidneys at a rate proportional to the plasma concentration and glomerular filtration.
