Acotiamide Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of acotiamide, a prokinetic agent with gastrointestinal (GI) motility-enhancing activity. Although the exact mechanism by which acotiamide exerts its effect has yet to be fully elucidated, this agent appears to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AchE), an enzyme responsible for the breakdown of acetylcholine (Ach). Increased Ach concentrations lead to an improvement of gastric emptying and GI motility and eventually to a reduction of dyspepsia symptoms.
Conversion of different model animals based on BSA(Value based on data from FDA Draft Guidelines)
Animal A (mg/kg)=Animal B(mg/kg)multiplied by AnimalBm系数/AnimalAm系数 For example, to modify the dose of resveratrol uesd for a mouse(22.4mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 22.4mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and zhen divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for resveratrol of 11.2mg/kg
