Description

The invention relates to the field of experimental medicine, namely pharmacology, preclinical studies (on small laboratory animals).

A known diuretic is furosemide [1].

Furosemide is a member of a group of strong diuretics that cause maximum diuresis. The disadvantage of this drug is that it is effective in fairly high average effective therapeutic doses of 20-160 mg. In this regard, furosemide causes a number of side effects: severe hypovolemia and hyperglycemia.

The diuretic hypothiazide is known [2].

Hypothiazide is a member of the group of thiazide diuretics. The disadvantage of this drug is the rather high average therapeutic dose of 25-200 mg and the fact that it is available in only one dosage form - in the form of tablets for oral administration.

A diuretic is also known [3].

The disadvantage of this drug is its high molecular weight (since peloids have a very complex structural formula) and a relatively high average therapeutic dose that causes a diuretic effect (5 and 7.5 mg/kg), which can cause a number of side effects.

The purpose of the invention is to increase the effectiveness of therapeutic effects by reducing the dose of drugs and eliminating the occurrence of side effects.

The technical result obtained by implementing the present invention is the expansion of the arsenal of agents with diuretic activity.

This goal is achieved by using oreganol A at a dose of 0.25-0.5 mg/kg as a diuretic. The formula of the biologically active compound is shown in Fig. 1.

The medicine is used as follows:

- administered enterally in a therapeutically effective amount once a day to achieve a diuretic effect;

- administered parenterally to achieve a diuretic effect;

- course use of the drug is also possible.

Contraindications to taking the drug are individual intolerance.

The drug belongs to toxicity class IV (low-hazard substances) and is stored at temperatures from +5 to +25°C.

Studies of diuretic activity were carried out on white outbred rats of both sexes weighing 200-220 g. The animals were kept in vivarium conditions on a normal diet with free access to water. The rats were divided into 2 groups: control and experimental. Each group consisted of ten animals. The study drug (oreganol A) was administered intragastrically through a tube. Drinking water in a volume of 3% of the animal’s body weight served as the control. The drug was administered intragastrically once against the background of a similar water load. After all manipulations, the animals were placed in exchange cages for a day. During the study, urine samples were collected after 4 and 24 hours. The volume of collected urine samples was measured and the concentration of creatinine in them was recorded. The obtained data were processed statistically using the Mann-Whitney test.

Preclinical example (data from experimental studies on diuretic activity) No. 1

With a single enteral (intragastric) administration of oreganol A at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg, there was a significant significant increase in diuretic activity in animals of the experimental group relative to the water control (by 73%) in a 4-hour experiment. Therefore, oreganol A at the above dose has diuretic activity. The diuretic reaction develops quickly (the drug has a short latent period). The results of a study of the effect of intragastric administration of oreganol A on the excretory function of the kidneys of intact rats are presented in Table 2 - Fig. 2 and table 2 – Fig. 3.

The drug can be administered in the form of any liquid dosage form or any solid dosage form with any physiologically and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

Preclinical example (data from experimental studies on diuretic activity) No. 2

With a single enteral (intragastric) administration of oreganol A at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg, there was a significant increase in diuretic activity (by 42%) and creatiniruretic activity (by 47%) in animals of the experimental group relative to the water control in the daily experiment.

With intragastric administration of the drug at the above dose for 7 and 14 days, a persistent diuretic effect was observed.

The drug was administered enterally in the form of an aqueous solution, while the drug could initially be presented in the form of any liquid dosage form or any solid dosage form with any physiologically and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

Preclinical example (data from experimental studies on diuretic activity) No. 3

With a single intramuscular injection of oreganol A at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg, there was a significant increase in diuretic activity in animals of the experimental group relative to the water control (1.8 times) in a 4-hour experiment.

The solvent can be water for injection, 0.9% sodium chloride or any other physiologically and pharmaceutically acceptable solvent.

The use of the proposed medicinal product makes it possible to increase the effectiveness of treatment of nephropathies of various origins.

A drug with diuretic activity can and should be used in experimental medicine, namely pharmacology, when carrying out complex therapy of experimental models of nephropathies.

After completion of all stages of preclinical and clinical studies, the drug can be used to treat nephropathies of various origins.

The claimed drug affects water-salt metabolism (increasing the excretion of water by the kidneys and normalizing the excretory function of the kidneys).
