Potassium Perchlorate is the potassium salt of perchloric acid and a member of the Hofmeister ions series with thyroid blocking properties. Potassium perchlorate is a competitive inhibitor of iodine uptake through inhibiting the sodium-iodide symporter (NIS) on the thyroid follicular cell membrane. This results in a potential decrease in thyroid hormone synthesis including thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3). In addition, this agent decreases the accumulation of the radioactive imaging substance and Hofmeister series ion, pertechnetate Tc 99m, in the choroid plexus and in the salivary and thyroid glands through competitive displacing.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Potassium perchlorate inhibits thyroid iodide transport. The clinical use of potassium perchlorate in hyperthyroidism, such as Graves' disease and amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism, have been investigated in various studies. Thyroid dysfunction occurs in about 15-20% of the patients receiving long-term amiodarone therapy. In patients with amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism, short-term administration of potassium perchlorate resulted in restoration of euthyroidism in most patients. Euthyroidism promoted by potassium perchlorate does not persist unless amiodarone treatment is withdrawn.


5.2 ATC Code

H - Systemic hormonal preparations, excl. sex hormones and insulins

H03 - Thyroid therapy

H03B - Antithyroid preparations

H03BC - Perchlorates

H03BC01 - Potassium perchlorate


5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Perchlorate is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after ingestion. The time to reach peak plasma levels of perchlorate is approximately 3 hours following oral administration. As potassium perchlorate is an organic compound with complete ionization in water, dermal absorption through intact skin is unlikely.


Route of Elimination

Perchlorate is mainly excreted unchanged in the urine with the recovery rate of approximately 95% within 72 hours. It is reported that half of the total perchlorate ions administered orally are excreted during the first 5 hours post-dosing while the rest of the dose is excreted within 48 to 72 hours.


Volume of Distribution

No pharmacokinetic data on the volume of distribution. Perchlorate is likely to sequester into the thyroid gland, gastrointestinal tract, and possibly the skin.


Clearance

No pharmacokinetic data on clearance rate. Systemic clearance is biphasic with a slow terminal phase.

5.6 Mechanism of Action

Thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3) are major thyroid hormones, or iodothyronines, that are synthesized and released from the thyroid. Iodine plays an essential role in the synthesis of these hormones. Via the sodium-iodide symporter (NIS), which is a protein located on the basolateral membrane of the thyroid follicular cell, iodine is transported from the blood into the thyroid gland where it is oxidized to. Perchlorate (ClO4) is the dissociated anion of potassium perchlorate that exerts an inhibitory effect on iodide uptake by the thyroid gland in the cellular level. Due to its similarity in ionic size and charge to iodide, perchlorate inhibits the sodium-iodide symporter (NIS) without being translocated into the thyroid follicular cell. The inhibition constant, Ki, is estimated as 0.4 mol to 24 mol. At therapeutic dosage levels this competitive inhibition decreases the entrance of iodide into the thyroid, resulting in less available iodide for hormone synthesis and, therefore, a decrease in T3 and T4 synthesis. When ambient iodine intake is low or iodide uptake is sufficiently inhibited, perchlorate is capable in inducing goiter and hypothyroidism from inhibited iodide uptake. At high doses of potassium perchlorate, reduced T3 and T4 levels may be accompanied by increased TSH levels via a negative feedback loop, affecting the thyroid, pituitary and hypothalamus.


POTASSIUM PERCHLORATE ADMIN ONCE A WK FOR 8 WK TO FRESHWATER CATFISH, HETEROPNEUSTES FOSSILIS, SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED THYROIDAL ACTIVITY & ELEVATED TSH LEVEL OF PITUITARY GLAND. GONADOTROPIC POTENCY OF PITUITARY GLAND, & OVARIAN ACTIVITY, WERE EFFECTIVELY LOWERED AFTER TREATMENT.
