MILRINONE

Milrinone is used for the short-term (less than 48 hours) intravenous treatment of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (Prod Info milrinone lactate in 5% dextrose intravenous injection solution, 2014).

FORMS

Milrinone is available as 1 mg/mL intravenous solution of milrinone (Prod Info milrinone lactate in 5% dextrose intravenous injection solution, 2014).

-CLINICAL EFFECTS

GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS

USES: Milrinone is used for the short-term (less than 48 hours) treatment of patients with acute decompensated heart failure.

PHARMACOLOGY: Milrinone lactate along with amrinone belongs to the bipyridine inotropic/vasodilator class of medications. It exerts its vasodilatory action by selectively inhibiting cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-specific phosphodiesterase III isoenzyme in cardiac and smooth vascular muscle. The increase in vascular muscle AMP facilitates calcium uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, thereby reducing calcium stores available for myofibril contraction, with subsequent reduction of vascular tone.

EPIDEMIOLOGY: Overdose is rare.

WITH POISONING/EXPOSURE

Overdose effects are anticipated to be an extension of adverse effects following therapeutic doses. Clinical effects in overdose include hypotension because of its vasodilator effect.

WITH THERAPEUTIC USE

Adverse effects reported with therapy include ventricular and supraventricular dysrhythmias, hypotension, angina/chest pain, headache, bronchospasm, anaphylactic shock, elevated liver enzymes, rash, hypokalemia, tremor, and thrombocytopenia. Torsades de pointes is a rare occurrence with milrinone therapy.

-FIRST AID

FIRST AID AND PREHOSPITAL TREATMENT

Gastrointestinal decontamination is not recommended; administered via the parenteral route.

-RANGE OF TOXICITY

MAXIMUM TOLERATED EXPOSURE

A specific toxic dose has not been established. The vasodilator effect of milrinone may result in hypotension in the event of an overdose (Prod Info milrinone lactate in 5% dextrose intravenous injection solution, 2014).
