BACKGROUND: Corticosteroid enemas represent effective treatment for ulcerative proctitis, but absorption into the systemic circulation may have undesirable metabolic consequences. Prednisolone metasulphobenzoate, a lipophobic corticosteroid derivative, is designed to be absorbed poorly through the recto-sigmoid mucosa, but the effects of foam enema preparations upon the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis have not been examined.
METHODS: Nine patients suffering from active ulcerative proctitis underwent four weeks of therapy with prednisolone metasulphobenzoate foam enemas. The hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis, defined using the modified single-dose metyrapone test, glucose homeostasis and lipid profiles were studied before and after treatment.
RESULTS: The hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis was significantly depressed after the treatment period; mean stimulated plasma cortisol concentration fell from 384 +/- 244 (s.d.) to 288 +/- 252 nmol/L, P < 0.02; stimulated mean plasma 11-deoxycortisol concentration fell from 677 +/- 333 to 407 +/- 326 nmol/L, P < 0.01. Mean fasting plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, fructosamine and triglyceride concentration were unchanged, whilst the mean serum cholesterol concentrations rose from 5.6 +/- 1.1 to 6.0 +/- 1.2 mmol/L (not significant).
CONCLUSION: Prednisolone metasulphobenzoate foam enemas have significant systemic and endocrine metabolic effects, which could assume importance with long-term therapy.
