In the radiation-induced pica model, ondansetron hydrochloride dehydrate (2 mg/kg; ip; single) prevents radiation sickness when combined with dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) and CP-99,994 (15 mg/kg)[1].
|
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male mice of ICR strain (8weeks old; 30-36 g; radiation-induced pica model (kaolin ingestion behavior “pica” may be analogous to nausea and vomiting in mice))[1].
Doses: 2 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; single. Experimental Results: Slightly decreased the radiation-induced kaolin consumption by dexamethasone to 48% of the control. demonstrated good activity of blocking radiation sickness by combining with Dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) and CP-99,994 (15 mg /kg). |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Overview of Use During Lactation Ondansetron is commonly used to relieve nausea during and after cesarean section, usually at an intravenous dose of 4 to 8 mg. Use of ondansetron during and after cesarean section does not appear to affect the initiation of breastfeeding. No adverse reactions have been reported in infants of women who received ondansetron postpartum, nor in pharmacokinetic studies. Studies on the use of ondansetron in postpartum lactating women are insufficient, but the drug is approved for use in infants up to 1 month old. Computer models show that drug concentrations in breast milk are far below this dose. No special precautions are required. ◉ Effects on Breastfed Infants A pharmacokinetic study of 78 women who received intravenous ondansetron postpartum showed no adverse reactions in their breastfed infants. ◉ Effects on Lactation and Breast Milk A randomized, double-blind study compared the effects of placebo versus intravenous 4 mg ondansetron after cesarean section in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting. There was no difference in the time to first breastfeeding between the two groups. A retrospective study compared three medication regimens in women who underwent cesarean section: dexmedetomidine before anesthesia and during delivery (n = 115), saline before anesthesia and during delivery, and dexmedetomidine postpartum (n = 109), and saline before anesthesia and during delivery (n = 168). All women received 4 mg ondansetron as needed, prior to suture removal. The mean total ondansetron intake ranged from 6 mg to 9 mg across all groups. The time to first lactation was similar across all groups (25 to 28 minutes). |

| Additional Infomation |
Ondansetron hydrochloride belongs to the carbazole class of drugs. Ondansetron hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt of the racemic mixture of ondansetron. Ondansetron is a carbazole derivative and a selective competitive 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with antiemetic activity. Although its mechanism of action is not fully elucidated, ondansetron appears to competitively block the action of 5-HT3 receptors in the peripheral gastrointestinal tract and in the postmedula medulla oblongata (the region containing the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) of the central nervous system), thereby inhibiting nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. A competitive 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. It is effective in treating nausea and vomiting induced by cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs (including cisplatin) and has been reported to have anti-anxiety and antipsychotic effects.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.83 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.83 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
