一、 Genipin 之 pKa≒6.3。其原形分子於血清中極不安定。
二、 大鼠靜脈注射 genipin 後,立即代謝成 sulfate 結合態代謝物,其原 形分子只短暫存在於血漿中。
三、 大鼠口服 genipin 後,主要以 genipin sulfate 存在於血循環中,顯示 此代謝物於體內發揮藥理作用之重要性值得探究。口服 200 mg/kg genipin 的大鼠死亡率高達 77.8%。
四、 大鼠口服梔子水煎劑後,主要以 genipin sulfate 循環於體內,滯留體 內時間達六天之久,且有明顯的腸肝循環現象,而 genipin 與 genipin glucuronide 於血中無法偵測。
五、 併服梔子水煎劑對 MTX 之 AUC、 MRT 顯著增加,CL/F 顯著下 降,顯示梔子水煎劑抑制 MTX 之排除,並造成部份大鼠死亡。
六、 併服梔子水煎劑顯著減少 PHT 給藥後之早期暴露及 CBZ 之全期暴 露。
七、 建議使用 MTX、PHT 及 CBZ 之患者盡量避免併服梔子水煎劑及其 相關方劑,以免造成中西藥交互作用,以確保療效及用藥安全。
