Abstract
BackgroundEsomeprazole, a potent proton pump inhibitor (PPI), is widely used for the prevention of stress ulcers in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.ObjectiveThis study investigates the pharmacokinetics (PK) of esomeprazole in critically ill patients.MethodsThe study included eligible adult ICU patients who received endotracheal intubation assisted mechanical ventilation for more than 48 h and had at least an extra risk factor for stress ulcers. All enrolled patients received once-daily intravenous (IV) esomeprazole 40 mg. After the first dose of esomeprazole was administrated, serial blood samples were collected at 3, 5, 15, 30 min and 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 h. The total sample concentrations of esomeprazole were measured by UPLC-MS/MS. Esomeprazole PK parameters were analyzed using noncompartmental analysis.ResultsA total of 30 patients were evaluable. Mean age and body mass index (BMI) were 61.97 years and 23.14. PK sampling on the first dose resulted in the following median (IQR) parameters: AUC0−∞ 8.06 (6.65–9.47) mg·h/L; MRT0−∞ 4.70 (3.89–5.51) h; t1/2 3.29 (2.7–3.87) h; V 24.89 (22.09–27.69) L; CL 6.13 (5.01–7.26) L/h; and Cmax 2.56 (2.30–2.82) mg/L.ConclusionsAccording to the label of esomeprazole, our study showed different esomeprazole PK parameters in ICU patients compared with healthy volunteers. Esomeprazole has unique pharmacokinetic parameters in critically ill patients.
