UTS2 FARMAKOKIMIA Nama : Ardhanareswari NIM : 118114049 Milrinone

1. Brand Name Milrinone IV [5].

2. Indication(s) : Indicated for the treatment of congestive heart failure [2]. Mechanism : Milrinone lowered Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) by decreasing Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAM) and increasing Cardiac Output (CO) significantly. In addition, Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure (PCWP) was significantly lowered [1]. 3. Side Effect(s) : hypotension [4]. Mechanism : adverse effects are inextricably linked to their inotropic mechanism of action [6]. The inotropic response to milrinone was modified by changes in the rate of stimulation and the concentration of extracellular Ca++ and by depolarization with high K+ or pretreatment with a calcium-channel blocker. Reduction of the extracellular Na+ concentration of 75% of normal potentiated the inotropic response of papillary muscles to low concentrations of milrinone, suggesting possible activation of the Na+-Ca++ exchange mechanism. These results suggest that milrinone may stimulate hypotension [7]. 4. Metabolism : Milrinone is metabolized into N-acetyl derivative [3].
