DESCRIPTION
AMICAR (aminocaproic acid) is 6-aminohexanoic acid, which acts as an inhibitor of fibrinolysis.
AMICAR is soluble in water, acid, and alkaline solutions; it is sparingly soluble in methanol and practically insoluble in chloroform.
AMICAR (aminocaproic acid) Oral Solution for oral administration, contains 0.25 g/mL of aminocaproic acid with methylparaben 0.20%, propylparaben 0.05%, edetate disodium 0.30% as preservatives and the following inactive ingredients: sodium saccharin, sorbitol solution, citric acid anhydrous, natural and artificial raspberry flavor and an artificial bitterness modifier.
Each AMICAR (aminocaproic acid) Tablet, for oral administration contains 500 mg or 1000 mg of aminocaproic acid and the following inactive ingredients: povidone, crospovidone, stearic acid, and magnesium stearate.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
The fibrinolysis-inhibitory effects of AMICAR appear to be exerted principally via inhibition of plasminogen activators and to lesser degree through antiplasmin activity.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
AMICAR is useful in enhancing hemostasis when fibrinolysis contributes to bleeding. In life-threatening situations, transfusion of appropriate blood products and other emergency measures may be required.
Fibrinolytic bleeding may frequently be associated with surgical complications following heart surgery (with or without cardiac bypass procedures) and portacaval shunt; hematological disorders such as amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (accompanying aplastic anemia); acute and life-threatening abruptio placentae; hepatic cirrhosis; and neoplastic disease such as carcinoma of the prostate, lung, stomach, and cervix.
Urinary fibrinolysis, usualIy normal physiological phenomenon, may contribute to excessive urinary tract fibrinolytic bleeding associated with surgical hematuria (following prostatectomy and nephrectomy) or nonsurgical hematuria (accompanying polycystic or neoplastic diseases of the genitourinary system
CONTRAINDICATIONS
AMICAR should not be used when there is evidence of an active intravascular clotting process.
When there is uncertainty as to whether the cause of bleeding is primary fibrinolysis or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), this distinction must be made before administering AMICAR.
The following tests can be applied to differentiate the two conditions:
Platelet count is usually decreased in DIC but normal in primary fibrinolysis.
Protamine paracoagulation test is positive in DIC; precipitate forms when protamine sulfate is dropped into citrated plasma. The test is negative in the presence of primary fibrinolysis.
The euglobulin clot Iysis test is abnormal in primary fibrinolysis but normal in DIC.
AMICAR must not be used in the presence of DIC without concomitant heparin.
An identical dosage regimen may be followed by administering AMICAR Tablets or AMICAR Oral Solution as follows:
For the treatment of acute bleeding syndromes due to elevated fibrinolytic activity, it is suggested that AMICAR 1000 mg Tablets or 10 AMICAR 500 mg Tablets ) or 20 milliliter of AMICAR Oral Solution ) be administered during the first hour of treatment, followed by continuing rate of AMICAR 1000 mg Tablet or AMICAR 500 mg Tablets ) or milliliter of AMICAR Oral Solution (1.25 g) per hour. This method of treatment would ordinarily be continued for about hours or until the bleeding situation has been controlled.
