The type of reaction to neostigmine in patients with neuromuscular disease is unpredictable. Long-lasting muscle weakness was produced in a 57-yr-old female with dystrophia myotonica. A 50-yr-old male with a 30-yr history of progressive muscle dystrophy exhibited a tonic response to neostigmine during recovery from partial neuromuscular block.

4.3 Drug Indication

Neostigmine is used for the symptomatic treatment of myasthenia gravis by improving muscle tone.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Neostigmine is a cholinesterase inhibitor used in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and to reverse the effects of muscle relaxants such as gallamine and tubocurarine. Neostigmine, unlike physostigmine, does not cross the blood-brain barrier. By inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, more acetylcholine is available in the synapse, therefore, more of it can bind to the fewer receptors present in myasthenia gravis and can better trigger muscular contraction.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Cholinesterase Inhibitors

Drugs that inhibit cholinesterases. The neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE is rapidly hydrolyzed, and thereby inactivated, by cholinesterases. When cholinesterases are inhibited, the action of endogenously released acetylcholine at cholinergic synapses is potentiated. Cholinesterase inhibitors are widely used clinically for their potentiation of cholinergic inputs to the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, the eye, and skeletal muscles; they are also used for their effects on the heart and the central nervous system. (See all compounds classified as Cholinesterase Inhibitors.)


Parasympathomimetics

Drugs that mimic the effects of parasympathetic nervous system activity. Included here are drugs that directly stimulate muscarinic receptors and drugs that potentiate cholinergic activity, usually by slowing the breakdown of acetylcholine (CHOLINESTERASE INHIBITORS). Drugs that stimulate both sympathetic and parasympathetic postganglionic neurons (GANGLIONIC STIMULANTS) are not included here. (See all compounds classified as Parasympathomimetics.)

5.5 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Neostigmine bromide is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract following oral administration


NEOSTIGMINE...IS ABSORBED POORLY AFTER ORAL ADMINISTRATION, SUCH THAT MUCH LARGER DOSES ARE NEEDED THAN BY THE PARENTERAL ROUTE. ...THE EFFECTIVE PARENTERAL DOSE OF NEOSTIGMINE IN MAN IS 0.5 TO 2.0 MG, THE EQUIVALENT ORAL DOSE MAY BE 30 MG OR MORE. LARGE ORAL DOSES MAY PROVE TOXIC IF INTESTINAL ABSORPTION IS ENHANCED FOR ANY REASON.

The pharmacokinetics of neostigmine in patients with normal renal function were determined and compared with those of patients undergoing renal transplantation or bilateral nephrectomy. Ten to 15 min prior to the end of operation and anesthesia, d-tubocurarine infusion was terminated and neostigmine, 0.07 mg/kg and atropine 0.03 mg/kg were given by infusion over a 2-min period. In anephric patients the elimination half-life was prolonged. Total serum clearance was decr from 16.7 ml/kg/min in patients with normal renal function to 7.8 ml/kg/min in anephric patients. Neostigmine pharmacokinetics following renal transplantation were not different from those in patients with normal renal function. Renal excretion accounts for 50% of neostigmine clearance.

Cronnelly R et al; Renal function and the pharmacokinetics of neostigmine in anesthetized man; Anesthesiology 51 (3): 222-6 (1979)


5.6 Metabolism/Metabolites

Neostigmine undergoes hydrolysis by cholinesterase and is also metabolized by microsomal enzymes in the liver.

5.7 Biological Half-Life

The half-life ranged from 42 to 60 minutes with a mean half-life of 52 minutes.


The pharmacokinetics of neostigmine was evaluated in man after iv and oral admin. The mean plasma T/2 for neostigmine after iv admin was 0.89 hr. Following oral admin peak concn occurred 1-2 hr after intake, but biol availability was only 1-2% of the admin dose. In patients with myasthenia gravis, the decrement of the evoked electric muscle response of repetitive nerve stimulation correlated well with plasma concn of neostigmine.

Eckernas SA et al; Pharmacokinetics of neostigmine and pyridostigmine in man and its correlation to clinical effects in myasthenia gravis; Adv Behav Biol 25 (Cholinergic Mech): 879-90 (1981)


5.8 Mechanism of Action

Neostigmine is a parasympathomimetic, specifically, a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor. The drug inhibits acetylcholinesterase which is responsible for the degredation of acetylcholine. So, with acetylcholinesterase inhibited, more acetylcholine is present By interfering with the breakdown of acetylcholine, neostigmine indirectly stimulates both nicotinic and muscarinic receptors which are involved in muscle contraction.. It does not cross the blood-brain barrier.


...PHARMACOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF ANTICHOLINESTERASE AGENTS ARE DUE PRIMARILY TO PREVENTION OF HYDROLYSIS OF ACH /ACETYLCHOLINE/ BY ACHE /ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE/ AT SITES OF CHOLINERGIC TRANSMISSION. TRANSMITTER THUS ACCUMULATES, AND THE ACTION OF ACH /ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE/ THAT IS LIBERATED BY CHOLINERGIC IMPULSES OR THAT LEAKS FROM THE NERVE ENDING IS ENHANCED.

Gilman, A. G., L. S. Goodman, and A. Gilman. (eds.). Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 6th ed. New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., Inc. 1980., p. 103


Neostigmine increased both miniature end-plate potential and end-plate potential amplitudes but did not affect quantal content in isolated frog sciatic nerve-Sartorius muscle prepn. This suggests that cholinesterase inhibition was the only effect.

Alderdice MT; Physostigmine, but not neostigmine, inhibits acetylcholine release; Brain Res 178 (2-3): 596-9 (1979)


Long term (24-96 hr) treatment of a mouse-derived myogenic cell line (G8) with neostigmine markedly reduced binding of alpha-bungarotoxin (alpha-BuTx) to these cells. Protein synthesis in these cultures was markedly reduced and cell morphology degenerated. Myotubes maintained slightly hyperpolarized resting membrane potentials, and were able to respond to iontophoretic acetylcholine (Ach) application with overshooting action potentials. Degenerative changes at the neuromuscular junction associated with chronic neostigmine treatment in vivo are probably due to a direct action of the anticholinesterase on the muscle, rather than to altered intracleft ACh levels or to presynaptic effects of the anticholinesterase.

Noble MD et al; Direct effects of neostigmine on aneural myotube cultures; Neurosci Lett 11 (2): 149-54 (1979)


The intraluminal probe mounted with 2 electrode-strain gauge pairs, 4 cm apart, was used to study the effect of a neutral interview, a stressful interview, a meal (478.7 cal) and neostigmine (0.5 mg, im) on the contractile electrical complex, continuous electrical response activity and their associated contractions in 17 normal subjects. Neostigmine resulted in an incr in contractile electric complex & continuous electric response activity indexes 5-10 and 25-30 min after the injection, respectively. Both the meal and neostigmine incr the percentage of propagated contractile electric complexes during all of the recording periods.
