VIGABATRINA: MECANISMO DE AÇÃO, EFEITOS FARMACOLÓGICOS, ESTUDOS CLÍNICOS E REAÇÕES ADVERSAS

Abstract

A vigabatrina e um analogo estrutural do acido ?-aminobutirico usado no tratamento da sindrome de West, uma forma de epilepsia grave especifica da infância, que se caracterizam pela triade espasmos, atraso neuropsicomotor e hipsarritmia ao eletroencefalograma. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi conduzir uma revisao de literatura sobre os aspectos farmacologicos da VGB, incluindo o mecanismo de acao que possa explicar os efeitos neurotoxicos e a toxicidade aguda e em longo prazo. Metodos: Para tanto foi realizada uma revisao da literatura usando as palavras-chaves vigabatrina, antiepilepticos, toxicidade ocular e intoxicacao, por intermedio do MEDLINE e LILACS. A busca inclui todos os artigos publicados no periodo entre 1937a 2008. Resultados: Ainda existem muitas questoes sem respostas sobre a farmacologia da VGB e a fisiologia dos efeitos toxicos dessa substância. A simples descricao do mecanismo de acao e insuficiente para explicar todos os efeitos induzidos pela VGB. Conclusao: Existem poucas informacoes na literatura sobre a farmacologia e o mecanismo de acao da VGB que possam explicar os efeitos neurotoxicos e outros efeitos. Sao necessarios mais estudos para que o profissional de saude possa obter informacoes e conhecimento, a fim de combater os efeitos toxicos da VGB. 10.5216/ref.v6i3.7593
