A third approach to protection against excessive AChE inhibition lies in pretreatment with reversible inhibitors of the enzyme to prevent binding of the irreversible organophosphate inhibitor. This prophylaxis can be achieved with pyridostigmine or physostigmine but is reserved for situations in which possibly lethal poisoning is anticipated, eg, chemical warfare. Simultaneous use of atropine is required to control muscarinic excess. [Pg.162]

The concept of using carbamates as pretreatment which protects against OP intoxication was first mooted in 1956 by Koster who demonstrated that cats pretreated with a small dose of eserine (physostigmine) survived poisoning by supralethal doses of diisopropylphosphorofluori-date (DFP) (Koster, 1956). Subsequently, Berry and Davies (1970) demonstrated the effectiveness of a combination of atropine and carbamate pretreatment against soman poisoning. At that time, it was not considered that pretreatments with substances such as atropine, with marked actions on the central nervous system, would be acceptable for human use. For this reason, effort was concentrated upon pretreatment with pyridostigmine, a quaternary carbamate, which would not be expected to cross the blood-brain barrier and affect the central nervous system. [Pg.344]

FUTURE PROSPECTS PRETREATMENT WITH PHYSOSTIGMINE AND HYOSCINE... [Pg.347]

More recently, as mentioned above, effort has been focused on the development of an alternative pretreatment based upon the centrally acting carbamate physostigmine, which has continued to be of interest despite having previously been considered and discounted because of concerns about its potential side-effects and relatively narrow therapeutic window. These concerns have largely been addressed by the concept of coadministration of the potent muscarinic antagonist, hyoscine, which has been shown to reduce... [Pg.347]
