Thioctic acid (Tablets, Concentrate) Instructions for Use

ATC Code

A16AX01 (Thioctic acid)

Active Substance

Thioctic acid (BAN)

Clinical-Pharmacological Group

Drug with antioxidant action, regulating carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Hepatoprotector

Pharmacotherapeutic Group

Other agents for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases and metabolic disorders

Pharmacological Action

It is an endogenous antioxidant that binds free radicals. Thioctic (alpha-lipoic) acid is involved in the mitochondrial metabolism of the cell, where it functions as a coenzyme in the complex transformation of substances with a pronounced antitoxic effect.

They protect the cell from reactive radicals arising during intermediate metabolism or during the breakdown of exogenous foreign substances, and from heavy metals. Thioctic acid exhibits synergism with insulin, which is associated with increased glucose utilization.

In patients with diabetes mellitus, Thioctic acid leads to a change in the concentration of pyruvic acid in the blood.

Pharmacokinetics

When taken orally, it is rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Cmax is reached 30 minutes after administration and is 4 µg/ml.

After intravenous administration of thioctic acid at a dose of 600 mg, Cmax in blood plasma after 30 minutes is about 20 µg/ml.

Thioctic acid has a first-pass effect through the liver. Metabolite formation occurs as a result of side chain oxidation and conjugation. Vd is about 450 ml/kg.

Thioctic acid and its metabolites are excreted by the kidneys, predominantly as metabolites (80-90%), with a small amount excreted unchanged. T1/2 is 25 minutes. Total plasma clearance is 10-15 ml/min/kg.

Indications

Diabetic polyneuropathy. Alcoholic polyneuropathy.

ICD codes

ICD-10 code Indication
G62.1 Alcoholic polyneuropathy
G63.2 Diabetic polyneuropathy
ICD-11 code Indication
8C03.0 Diabetic polyneuropathy
8D44.0 Alcoholic polyneuropathy

Dosage Regimen

The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen.

Administer a recommended dose of 600 mg once daily.

For diabetic polyneuropathy, initiate therapy with intravenous administration for 2-4 weeks in severe cases.

Follow intravenous administration with a transition to oral tablets for long-term management.

Administer intravenous doses by slow bolus injection or as an intravenous infusion.

Avoid rapid intravenous injection to minimize the risk of local reactions and systemic adverse effects.

Adjust the treatment duration and regimen individually based on disease severity and patient response.

Take tablets on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before a meal, for optimal absorption.

Do not take tablets concurrently with dairy products or mineral supplements containing calcium, magnesium, or iron.

Monitor blood glucose levels closely in diabetic patients, especially during the initial phase of therapy.

Reduce the dose of concomitant insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents if necessary to prevent hypoglycemia.

Discontinue use immediately if symptoms of hypoglycemia occur.

Exercise caution with intravenous administration in geriatric patients over 75 years of age.

Abstain from alcohol consumption during the entire treatment course due to reduced therapeutic efficacy.

Adverse Reactions

Immune system disorders: very rarely – allergic reactions (skin rash, eczema, urticaria, skin itching); frequency unknown – anaphylactic shock, autoimmune insulin syndrome in patients with diabetes mellitus, which is characterized by frequent hypoglycemia in the presence of autoantibodies to insulin.

Metabolism and nutrition disorders: very rarely – hypoglycemia (due to improved glucose uptake), the symptoms of which include dizziness, increased sweating, headache, and visual impairment.

Nervous system disorders: often – dizziness; very rarely – change or impairment of taste sensations, “flushes”, convulsions.

Gastrointestinal disorders: often – nausea, vomiting; very rarely – abdominal pain, diarrhea.

Blood and lymphatic system disorders: after intravenous administration very rarely – petechial hemorrhages in the mucous membranes, skin; hemorrhagic rash (purpura), thrombocytopathy, hypocoagulation.

Hepatobiliary disorders: after intravenous administration very rarely – increased activity of liver enzymes.

Cardiac disorders: with rapid intravenous administration very rarely – thrombophlebitis, pain in the heart area, tachycardia.

Eye disorders: after intravenous administration very rarely – diplopia, blurred vision.

Local reactions: after intravenous administration very rarely – burning sensation at the injection site, frequency unknown – allergic reactions at the injection site (irritation, hyperemia, or swelling).

General disorders and administration site conditions: with rapid intravenous administration very rarely – self-limiting increased intracranial pressure (feeling of heaviness in the head) and difficulty breathing, weakness.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to thioctic acid; pregnancy, lactation (breastfeeding); children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Use in Pregnancy and Lactation

Contraindicated for use during pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding). If use during lactation is necessary, the issue of discontinuing breastfeeding should be decided.

Pediatric Use

Contraindicated for use in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Geriatric Use

Intravenous administration of thioctic acid should be carried out with caution in elderly patients (over 75 years of age).

Special Precautions

In severe diabetic polyneuropathy, it is recommended to start treatment with parenteral administration of thioctic acid for 2-4 weeks, followed by the use of oral forms of thioctic acid.

During the use of thioctic acid in patients with diabetes mellitus, constant monitoring of plasma glucose concentration is necessary, especially at the initial stage of therapy. In some cases, it may be necessary to reduce the dose of insulin or oral hypoglycemic drugs to avoid the development of hypoglycemia. If symptoms of hypoglycemia occur (dizziness, increased sweating, headache, visual impairment, nausea), the use of thioctic acid should be stopped immediately.

Alcohol intake reduces the effectiveness of treatment with thioctic acid. During therapy, patients should refrain from consuming alcohol throughout the entire course of treatment, and, if possible, during breaks between courses. Alcohol consumption during treatment with thioctic acid is also a risk factor for the development and progression of neuropathy.

Several cases of autoimmune insulin syndrome have been described in patients with diabetes mellitus during treatment with thioctic acid, which was characterized by frequent hypoglycemia in the presence of autoantibodies to insulin. The possibility of developing autoimmune insulin syndrome is determined by the presence of HLA-DRB1*0406 and HLA-DRB1*0403 haplotypes in patients.

Effect on ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery

During the use of thioctic acid, patients should exercise caution when driving vehicles and operating machinery, as well as when engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Drug Interactions

With simultaneous use of thioctic acid and cisplatin, a decrease in the effectiveness of cisplatin is noted.

Thioctic acid is capable of forming chelate complexes with metals; simultaneous administration with preparations of iron, magnesium, and calcium should be avoided. It should be borne in mind that dairy products contain calcium. Therefore, it is also necessary to avoid the use of thioctic acid simultaneously with dairy products (due to their calcium content).

With simultaneous use of thioctic acid and insulin or oral hypoglycemic drugs, their action may be enhanced, so regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is recommended, especially at the beginning of therapy with thioctic acid. In some cases, a reduction in the dose of hypoglycemic drugs may be acceptable to avoid the development of hypoglycemia symptoms.

Thioctic acid enhances the anti-inflammatory effect of corticosteroids.

Ethanol and its metabolites weaken the action of thioctic acid.

Thioctic acid forms poorly soluble complex compounds with sugar molecules. Thioctic acid is incompatible with dextrose (glucose), fructose, Ringer’s solutions, as well as with solutions that react with disulfide or SH-groups.

Storage Conditions
