Enhanced oral delivery of antimony from meglumine antimoniate/β-cyclodextrin nanoassemblies
International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 2008The composition comprising the highly water-soluble drug meglumine antimoniate (MA) and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) was shown previously to enhance the absorption of Sb by oral route and render MA orally active in a murine model of cutaneous leishmaniasis.

Oxidative stress in mice treated with antileishmanial meglumine antimoniate
Research in Veterinary Science, 2013In order to improve the understanding of the toxicity of pentavalent antimony (Sb(V)), we investigated the acute effects of meglumine antimoniate (MA) on the oxidative stress in heart, liver, kidney, spleen and brain tissue of mice. Levels of lipoperoxidation and protein carbonylation were measured to evaluate the oxidative status, whereas superoxide ...

Physico-chemical characterization of meglumine antimoniate
Biometals, 1999The leishmanicidal drug, meglumine antimoniate (MA), has been synthesized by the reaction of antimony oxyhydrated and N-methyl glucamine. Infrared and solid state NMR 13C analysis of MA and the ligand strongly suggests that antimony binds to N-methyl glucamine through the oxygen of C-3 carbon. Potentiometric titration indicated that, between pH 4.5 and

Embryotoxicity of meglumine antimoniate in the rat
Reproductive Toxicology, 2001Meglumine antimoniate (MA) is a pentavalent antimonial (Sb(V)) drug used to treat leishmaniasis. Despite the fact that Sb(V) organic compounds have been used in clinical practice for more than 50 years, information on their safety during pregnancy is still scanty. This study was undertaken to evaluate the embryo/fetotoxicity of MA in the rat.

Drug Hypersensitivity Syndrome Induced by Meglumine Antimoniate
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2009We report a case of drug hypersensitivity syndrome (drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms [DRESS]) induced by parenteral meglumine antimoniate (Glucantime) in a 40-year-old man who traveled to Bolivia and was treated for mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.

Visceral leishmaniasis during pregnancy treated with meglumine antimoniate
Infection, 1995Data on the efficacy and safety of pentavalent antimony in the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis during pregnancy are scanty. A case of visceral leishmaniasis in a 39-year-old woman in the second trimester of pregnancy is reported here. The patient was hospitalized in poor condition with high fever and pancytopenia which had lasted for 6 weeks.
