| | Neostigmine Methyl Sulfate Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Neostigmine is a reversible inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; Kd = 260 μM). In a rat model of knee joint inflammation, intrathecal administration of neostigmine (2-30 μg) increases endogenous acetylcholine levels and dose-dependently increases the latency of paw withdrawal in response to thermal and mechanical stimuli (ED50s = 6.6 and 3.5 μg, respectively). Neostigmine (5 μg, i.p.) restores muscle action potentials in mice with a thymopoietin-induced neuromuscular block. Formulations containing neostigmine have been used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and Ogilvie syndrome. | | Chemical Properties | Crystalline Solid | | Uses | Cholinergic; miotic; antidote (curare) | | Definition | ChEBI: Neostigmine methyl sulfate is an arylammonium sulfate salt. It has a role as an EC 3.1.1.8 (cholinesterase) inhibitor. | | Brand name | Prostigmine (ICN). | | General Description | Neostigmine methylsulfate,(m-hydroxyphenyl)trimethylammonium methylsulfatedimethylcarbamate or the dimethylcarbamic ester of 3-hydroxyphenyltrimethylammoniummethylsulfate (Prostigminmethylsulfate), is a bitter, odorless, white, crystalline powder.It is very soluble in water and soluble in alcohol. Solutionsare stable and can be sterilized by boiling. The compound istoo hygroscopic for use in a solid form and thus is alwaysused as an injection. Aqueous solutions are neutral to litmus. | | Clinical Use | The methylsulfate salt is used postoperatively as a urinarystimulant and in the diagnosis and treatment of myastheniagravis. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise the sulfate from EtOH or Me2CO (m 143-144o). Its solubility in H2O is ~10%. [Beilstein 13 III 939.] (It is cholinergic and highly TOXIC.) |
