Asparcam

Drug name: Asparcam

Other names used:

• K-Mg Asparaginate®

Active Ingredients: Aspartic acid magnesium and potassium salt

Active Ingredients: Magnesium Asparahynate, Potassium Asparahynate.

Therapeutic actions: Asparcam is the mix of Potassium and Magnesium Asparahynates in ratio 1 : 1. Asparcam eliminates the electrolitic disbalance in the organism promoting the penetration of the potassium and magnesium iones into the intracellular space.

Asparcam is a source of K+ and Mg+, it regulates methabolic processes, promotes restoration of electrolytic balance, possesses antiarithmic action. K+ takes part in conducting electric impulses through nerve fibers, also participates in synaptic transmission, muscle contraction, maintenance of normal heart activity. Failure in K+ metabolism causes alteration in nerve and muscle excitability. Active ionic transport supports a high gradient of K+ through cell membranes. In low doses K+ dilates coronary arteries, in high doses makes the vessels narrower. Mg2+ is a cofactor for 300 enzyme reactions. It is indispensable during the process of production and consumption of energy. Mg2+ appears in structure of DNA, and takes part in synthesis of RNA, cell growth, meiosis. Constrains and prevents catecholamine discharge during stress, possible lipolisis and extrication of free fatty acids. Mg2+ promotes K+ penetration in cells. Asparcam stimulates intercellular synthesis of phosphates.

Indications: Asparcam is taken under a physician's supervision for the cardiac insufficiency ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypopotassiemy, hypokaliemia, hypomagnesemia.

Contraindications and cautions: Medicine is contraindicated with the acute and chronic insufficiency of kidney, hyperpotassiemia and with disorder of the atrioventricular conductivity (cataplexy).

Adverse effects: The following are some of the side effects that are known to be associated with this medicine. Because a side effect is stated here, it does not mean that all people using this medicine will experience that or any side effect.

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach ache, ulcer, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, wind, dry mouth, bragicardia, decrease in blood pressure, phlebit, vein thrombosis, skin irritation, hyporeflexia, vertigo, paresthesia, myasthenia, asthenia, sweating. If injected rapidly can cause hyperkaliemia, hypermagnesemia.

Patients suffering from the anacydic gastritis or cholecystitis may feel the unpleasent sensations or epigastric ador.

The side effects listed above may not include all of the side effects reported by the drug's manufacturer.

Interactions: Tell your doctor or pharmacist what medicines you are already taking, including those bought without a prescription and herbal medicines, before you start treatment with this medicine.

Amplifies negative effect of antiarrhythmic means. Beta-blocker, cyclosporine, potassium-sparing diuretic, heparin, inhibitors of APF, NSAID can increase risk of hyperkaliemia. General anesthetic drugs can intensify inhibitory action on CNS. During simultaneous use with athracuronim, dekametonim, succinylchloride and succsametoniem there is a possibility of increase in neuromuscular blockade. Binding and covering agents lower absorption in gastrointestinal tract. Pharmaceuticaly Asparcam can be combined with solutions of heart glycosides.
