PURPOSE: Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors such as Nitro-L-arginine (L-NA) are being considered for the management of hypotension observed in septic shock. However, little information is available regarding the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of these agents. Our objective was to examine the relationships between L-NA plasma concentration and various hemodynamic effects such as cardiac index (CI), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR) elicited by L-NA administration in rats.
METHODS: L-NA was infused at doses between 2.5-20 mg/kg/hr in anesthetized rats over one hour. Hemodynamic effects and plasma L-NA levels were determined.
RESULTS: Infusion of L-NA resulted in dose-dependent increases in MAP and systemic vascular resistance (SVR), decreases in CI, and minimal change in HR. The relationships between the hemodynamic effects and plasma L-NA levels were not monotonic, and hysteresis was observed. Using nonparametric analysis, the equilibration half-time (t1/2,keo) between plasma L-NA and the hypothetical effect site was determined to be 51.5 +/- 6.6 min, 42.4 +/- 10.1 min, 43.4 +/- 9.0 min for MAP, CI, and SVR, respectively (n = 14). The Emax and EC50 values obtained were + 32.5 +/- 8.4 and 2.6 +/- 1.3 microg/ml for MAP and -52.9 +/- 15.6 and 3.7 +/- 1.8 microg/ml for CI, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: Although L-NA can bring about beneficial elevation of MAP, such effect is always accompanied by a stronger effect on CI depression. Dose escalation of L-NA may bring about detrimental negative inotropic effect and loss of therapeutic efficacy.
