Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate):
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate
Injection, USP
Ansyr Plastic Syringe
Rx only
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate Injection, USP is a sterile solution of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate heptahydrate in Water for Injection, USP administered by the intravenous or intramuscular routes as an electrolyte replenisher or anticonvulsant. Must be diluted before intravenous use. May contain sulfuric acid and/or sodium hydroxide for pH adjustment. The pH is 5.5 to 7.0. The 50% concentration has an osmolarity of 4.06 mOsmol/mL (calc.).
The solution contains no bacteriostat, antimicrobial agent or added buffer (except for pH adjustment) and is intended only for use as a single-dose injection. When smaller doses are required the unused portion should be discarded with the entire unit.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate, USP heptahydrate is chemically designated MgSO4 - 7H2O with molecular weight of 246.48 and occurs as colorless crystals or white powder freely soluble in water.
The plastic syringe is molded from a specially formulated polypropylene. Water permeates from inside the container at an extremely slow rate which will have an insignificant effect on solution concentration over the expected shelf life. Solutions in contact with the plastic container may leach out certain chemical components from the plastic in very small amounts; however, biological testing was supportive of the safety of the syringe material.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) (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 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) 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 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)). While there are large stores of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) present intracellularly and in the bones of adults, these stores often are not mobilized sufficiently to maintain plasma levels. Parenteral Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) therapy repairs the plasma deficit and causes deficiency symptoms and signs to cease.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) prevents or controls convulsions by blocking neuromuscular transmission and decreasing the amount of acetylcholine liberated at the end plate by the motor nerve impulse. Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) 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 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) levels range from 1.5 to 2.5 mEq/liter.
As plasma Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) 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 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)). Serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) concentrations in excess of 12 mEq/L may be fatal.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) 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 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) 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. Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) is excreted solely by the kidneys at a rate proportional to the plasma concentration and glomerular filtration.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate Injection, USP is suitable for replacement therapy in Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) deficiency, especially in acute hypomagnesemia accompanied by signs of tetany similar to those observed in hypocalcemia. In such cases, the serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) (Mg++) level is usually below the lower limit of normal (1.5 to 2.5 mEq/liter) and the serum calcium (Ca++) level is normal (4.3 to 5.3 mEq/liter) or elevated.
In total parenteral nutrition (TPN), Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate may be added to the nutrient admixture to correct or prevent hypomagnesemia which can arise during the course of therapy.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate Injection, USP is also indicated for the prevention and control of seizures (convulsions) in pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, respectively.
Parenteral administration of the drug is contraindicated in patients with heart block or myocardial damage.
FETAL HARM: Continuous administration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate beyond 5 to 7 days to pregnant women can lead to hypocalcemia and bone abnormalities in the developing fetus. These bone abnormalities include skeletal demineralization and osteopenia. In addition, cases of neonatal fracture have been reported. The shortest duration of treatment that can lead to fetal harm is not known. Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. If Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate is given for treatment of preterm labor, the woman should be informed that the efficacy and safety of such use have not been established and that use of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate beyond 5 to 7 days may cause fetal abnormalities.
ALUMINUM TOXICITY: This product contains aluminum that may be toxic. Aluminum may reach toxic levels with prolonged parenteral administration if kidney function is impaired. Premature neonates are particularly at risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions, which contain aluminum.
Research indicates that patients with impaired kidney function, including premature neonates, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than 4 to 5 mcg/kg/day accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration.
Parenteral use in the presence of renal insufficiency may lead to Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) intoxication. Intravenous use in the eclampsia should be reserved for immediate control of life-threatening convulsions.
General
Administer with caution if flushing and sweating occurs. When barbiturates, narcotics or other hypnotics (or systemic anesthetics) are to be given in conjunction with Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)), their dosage should be adjusted with caution because of additive CNS depressant effects of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)).
Because Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) is removed from the body solely by the kidneys, the drug should be used with caution in patients with renal impairment. Urine output should be maintained at a level of 100 mL or more during the four hours preceding each dose. Monitoring serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) levels and the patient's clinical status is essential to avoid the consequences of overdosage in toxemia. Clinical indications of a safe dosage regimen include the presence of the patellar reflex (knee jerk) and absence of respiratory depression (approximately 16 breaths or more/minute). When repeated doses of the drug are given parenterally, knee jerk reflexes should be tested before each dose and if they are absent, no additional Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) should be given until they return. Serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) levels usually sufficient to control convulsions range from 3 to 6 mg/100 mL (2.5 to 5 mEq/liter). The strength of the deep tendon reflexes begins to diminish when Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) levels exceed 4 mEq/liter. Reflexes may be absent at 10 mEq magnesium/liter, where respiratory paralysis is a potential hazard. An injectable calcium salt should be immediately available to counteract the potential hazards of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) intoxication in eclampsia.
50% Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Sulfate Injection, USP must be diluted to a concentration of 20% or less prior to intravenous infusion. Rate of administration should be slow and cautious, to avoid producing hypermagnesemia. The 50% solution also should be diluted to 20% or less for intramuscular injection in infants and children.
Laboratory Tests
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate injection should not be given unless hypomagnesemia has been confirmed and the serum concentration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) is monitored. The normal serum level is 1.5 to 2.5 mEq/L.
Drug Interactions
CNS Depressants - When barbiturates, narcotics or other hypnotics (or systemic anesthetics), or other CNS depressants are to be given in conjunction with Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)), their dosage should be adjusted with caution because of additive CNS depressant effects of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)). CNS depression and peripheral transmission defects produced by Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) may be antagonized by calcium.
Neuromuscular Blocking Agents - Excessive neuromuscular block has occurred in patients receiving parenteral Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate and a neuromuscular blocking agent; these drugs should be administered concomitantly with caution.
Cardiac Glycosides - Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate should be administered with extreme caution in digitalized patients, because serious changes in cardiac conduction which can result in heart block may occur if administration of calcium is required to treat Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) toxicity.
Pregnancy
Teratogenic Effects
Pregnancy Category D (See WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS )
See WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS .
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate can cause fetal abnormalities when administered beyond 5 to 7 days to pregnant women. There are retrospective epidemiological studies and case reports documenting fetal abnormalities such as hypocalcemia, skeletal demineralization, osteopenia and other skeletal abnormalities with continuous maternal administration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate for more than 5 to 7 days.1-10 Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate injection should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed. If this drug is used during pregnancy, the woman should be apprised of the potential harm to the fetus.
Nonteratogenic Effects
When administered by continuous intravenous infusion (especially for more than 24 hours preceding delivery) to control convulsions in a toxemic woman, the newborn may show signs of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) toxicity, including neuromuscular or respiratory depression (See OVERDOSAGE ).
Labor and Delivery
Continuous administration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate is an unapproved treatment for preterm labor. The safety and efficacy of such use have not been established. The administration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate outside of its approved indication in pregnant women should be by trained obstetrical personnel in a hospital setting with appropriate obstetrical care facilities.
Nursing Mothers
Since Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) is distributed into milk during parenteral Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate administration, the drug should be used with caution in nursing women.
Geriatrics
Geriatric patients often require reduced dosage because of impaired renal function. In patients with severe impairment, dosage should not exceed 20 grams in 48 hours. Serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) should be monitored in such patients.
The adverse effects of parenterally administered Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) usually are the result of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) intoxication. These include flushing, sweating, hypotension, depressed reflexes, flaccid paralysis, hypothermia, circulatory collapse, cardiac and central nervous system depression proceeding to respiratory paralysis. Hypocalcemia with signs of tetany secondary to Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate therapy for eclampsia has been reported.
Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) intoxication is manifested by a sharp drop in blood pressure and respiratory paralysis. Disappearance of the patellar reflex is a useful clinical sign to detect the onset of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) intoxication. In the event of overdosage, artificial ventilation must be provided until a calcium salt can be injected intravenously to antagonize the effects of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)).
For Treatment of Overdose
Artificial respiration is often required. Intravenous calcium, 10 to 20 mL of a 5% solution (diluted if desirable with isotonic sodium chloride for injection) is used to counteract effects of hypermagnesemia. Subcutaneous physostigmine, 0.5 to 1 mg may be helpful.
Hypermagnesemia in the newborn may require resuscitation and assisted ventilation via endotracheal intubation or intermittent positive pressure ventilation as well as intravenous calcium.
Dosage of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate must be carefully adjusted according to individual requirements and response, and administration of the drug should be discontinued as soon as the desired effect is obtained.
Both intravenous and intramuscular administration are appropriate. Intramuscular administration of the undiluted 50% solution results in therapeutic plasma levels in 60 minutes, whereas intravenous doses will provide a therapeutic level almost immediately. The rate of intravenous injection should generally not exceed 150 mg/minute (1.5 mL of a 10% concentration or its equivalent), except in severe eclampsia with seizures. Continuous maternal administration of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate in pregnancy beyond 5 to 7 days can cause fetal abnormalities.
Solutions for intravenous infusion must be diluted to a concentration of 20% or less prior to administration. The diluents commonly used are 5% Dextrose Injection, USP and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Deep intramuscular injection of the undiluted (50%) solution is appropriate for adults, but the solution should be diluted to a 20% or less concentration prior to such injection in children.
In Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) Deficiency
In the treatment of mild Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) deficiency, the usual adult dose is 1 gram, equivalent to 8.12 mEq of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) (2 mL of the 50% solution) injected intramuscularly every six hours for four doses (equivalent to a total of 32.5 mEq of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) per 24 hours). For severe hypomagnesemia, as much as 250 mg (approximately 2 mEq) per kg of body weight (0.5 mL of the 50% solution) may be given intramuscularly within a period of four hours if necessary. Alternatively, 5 grams, (approximately 40 mEq) can be added to one liter of 5% Dextrose Injection, USP or 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP for slow intravenous infusion over a three-hour period. In the treatment of deficiency states, caution must be observed to prevent exceeding the renal excretory capacity.
In Hyperalimentation
In total parenteral nutrition, maintenance requirements for Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) are not precisely known. The maintenance dose used in adults ranges from 8 to 24 mEq (1 gram to 3 grams) daily; for infants, the range is 2 to 10 mEq (0.25 gram to 1.25 grams) daily.
In Pre-eclampsia or Eclampsia
In severe pre-eclampsia or eclampsia, the total initial dose is 10 grams to 14 grams of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate. Intravenously, a dose of 4 grams to 5 grams in 250 mL of 5% Dextrose Injection, USP or 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP may be infused. Simultaneously, intramuscular doses of up to 10 grams (5 grams or 10 mL of the undiluted 50% solution in each buttock) are given. Alternatively, the initial intravenous dose of 4 grams may be given by diluting the 50% solution to a 10 or 20% concentration; the diluted fluid (40 mL of a 10% solution or 20 mL of a 20% solution) may then be injected intravenously over a period of three to four minutes. Subsequently, 4 grams to 5 grams (8 to 10 mL of the 50% solution) are injected intramuscularly into alternate buttocks every four hours as needed, depending on the continuing presence of the patellar reflex and adequate respiratory function. Alternatively, after the initial intravenous dose, some clinicians administer 1 gram to 2 grams/hour by constant intravenous infusion. Therapy should continue until paroxysms cease. A serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) level of 6 mg/100 mL is considered optimal for control of seizures. A total daily (24 hr) dose of 30 grams to 40 grams should not be exceeded. In the presence of severe renal insufficiency, the maximum dosage of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate is 20 grams/48 hours and frequent serum Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) concentrations must be obtained. Continuous use of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate in pregnancy beyond 5 to 7 days can cause fetal abnormalities.
Other Uses
In counteracting the muscle-stimulating effects of barium poisoning, the usual dose of Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) sulfate is 1 gram to 2 grams given intravenously.
For controlling seizures associated with epilepsy, glomerulonephritis or hypothyroidism, the usual adult dose is 1 gram administered intramuscularly or intravenously.
In paroxysmal atrial tachycardia, Acetabolan II (Magnesium (Magnesium HVP Chelate)) should be used only if simpler measures have failed and there is no evidence of myocardial damage. The usual dose is 3 grams to 4 grams (30 to 40 mL of a 10% solution) administered intravenously over 30 seconds with extreme caution.
For reduction of cerebral edema, 2.5 grams (25 mL of a 10% solution) is given intravenously.
