Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
An intranasal dose of naloxone is 42-47% bioavailable. An 8 mg dose of nasal naloxone reaches a Cmax of 12.3-12.8 ng/mL, with a Tmax of 0.25 hours, and an AUC of 16.7-19.0 h\*ng/mL. A 0.4 mg intramuscular dose reaches a Cmax of 0.876-0.910 ng/mL, with a Tmax of 0.25 hours, and an AUC of 1.94-1.95 h\*ng/mL. A 2 mg intravenous dose reaches a Cmax of 26.2 ng/mL with an AUC of 12.8 h\*ng/mL.
After oral or intravenous administration, naloxone is 25-40% eliminated in the urine within 6 hours, 50% in 24 hours, and 60-70% in 72 hours. The metabolites naloxone-3-glucuronide, noroxymorphone, and naloxol are all detected in the urine.
The volume of distribution of naloxone is 200 L. Naloxone distributes into tissues rapidly. It can also cross the placenta and blood-brain barrier.
The clearance of naloxone is 2500 L/day.
Naloxone is distributed rapidly throughout the body with high levels found in the brain, kidneys, spleen, skeletal muscle, lung, and heart. The drug also readily crosses the placenta.
Naloxone is only minimally absorbed when given orally as it is rapidly destroyed in the GI tract. Much higher doses are required if using this route of administration for any pharmacologic effect. When given IV, naloxone has a very rapid onset of action (usually 1-2 minutes). If given IM, the drug generally has an onset of action with 5 minutes of administration. The duration of action usually persists from 45-90 minutes, but may act for up to 3 hours.
Naloxone is rapidly inactivated following oral administration. Although the drug is effective orally, doses much larger than those required for parenteral administration are required for complete antagonism. In one study, a single 3-g oral dose of naloxone hydrochloride was required to effectively antagonize the effects of 50 mg of heroin for 24 hours. Naloxone has an onset of action within 1-2 minutes following iv administration and within 2-5 minutes following subcutaneous or im administration. The duration of action depends on the dose and route of administration and is more prolonged following im administration than after iv administration.
Following administration of 35 or 70 ug of naloxone hydrochloride into the umbilical vein in neonates in one study, peak plasma naloxone concentrations occurred within 40 minutes and were 4-5.4 ng/mL and 9.2-20.2 ng/mL, respectively. After im administration of 0.2 mg to neonates in the same study, peak plasma naloxone concentrations of 11.3-34.7 ng/mL occurred within 0.5-2 hours.

Metabolism / Metabolites
Naloxone primarily undergoes glucuronidation to form naloxone-3-glucuronide. Naloxone is also N-dealkylated to noroxymorphone or undergoes 6-keto reduction to naloxol.
Naloxone is rapidly metabolized in the liver, principally by conjugation with glucuronic acid. The major metabolite is naloxone-3-glucuronide. Naloxone also undergoes N-dealkylation and reduction of the 6-keto group followed by conjugation.
Yields N-allyl-7,8-dihydro-14-hydroxynormorphine, 7,8-dihydro-14-hydroxynormorphinone in man; Weinstein, SH, Pfeffer, M, Schor, JM, Indindoli, L, & Mintz, M, J Pharm Sci, 60, 1567 (1971). Yields naloxone-3-beta-d-glucuronide in man; Fujimoto, JM, J Pharmac Exp Ther, 168, 180(1969). /From table/
... Oxidative N-deallylation, redn of 6-keto-group, and glucuronidation occur in man.
... Naloxone-3-glucuronide (major), 3-sulfate (minor), naloxol and conjugated naloxol (minor), 7,8-dihydro-14-hydroxynormorphine, 7,8-dihydro-14-hydroxynormorphine and their conjugates were shown to be the metabolites of naloxone. In addition, tentative evidence was obtained for two polar hydroxylated metabolites (with hydroxylation presumably in the 17-side chain or in position 2 of the aromatic nucleus). 7,8-Dihydro-14-hydroxynormorphinone and 2-polar metabolites were also observed in brain. ...

Biological Half-Life
The mean half life of naloxone hydrochloride is 1.8-2.7 hours intranasally, 1.4 hours intramuscularly, and 1.2 hours intravenously. In neonates, the mean half life is 3.1 ± 0.5 hours.
The mean plasma half-life of naloxone was 1.28 hours following IM or subcutaneous injection of naloxone hydrochloride using an auto-injector, compared with 1.36 hours following IM or subcutaneous injection using a standard syringe.
The half-life of naloxone has been reported to be 30-81 minutes in adults and about 3 hours in neonates.
Plasma naloxone levels were determined by RIA over a period of 6--36 hr in three groups of neonates, (1) those given 35 microgram iv (n = 6), (2) those given 70 microgram iv (n = 6) and (3) those given 200 microgram im (n = 17) naloxone HCl within 1 min of birth. After intravenous administration of 35 and 70 microgram of naloxone peak levels of 4--15 ng/mL and 9--20 ng/mL respectively were reached in 5--40 min and the mean plasma half-life after both doses was 3.1 +/- 0.5 hr.

Toxicity Summary
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Naloxone is composed of crystals. Naloxone hydrochloride is used for the complete or partial reversal of opioid depression, including respiratory depression, induced by natural and synthetic opioids (both human and veterinary cases). It may also be useful as an adjunctive agent to increase blood pressure in the management of septic shock. A formulation for wildlife use (Trexonil) is more concentrated and used to reverse tranquilization in wild animals. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND SYMPTOMS: Adverse effects associated with naloxone use have included seizures, severe hypertension, and hypotension and/or bradycardia. A total of 1.2 mg administered intravenously as 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 mg at 11, 22, and 33 minutes respectively to nonaddicts caused miosis, decreased core temperature, and systolic blood pressure. Naloxone-induced acute pulmonary edema is an extremely rare but lethal complication. Endogenous opioids appear to regulate blood pressure in some hypertensive patients and opiate antagonists such as naloxone must be administered with caution to these individuals. Moderate increases in respiratory rate, heart rate, and blood pressure occur after naloxone administration to children, but development of more serious complications is rare. Naloxone was weakly positive in the in vitro human lymphocyte chromosome aberration test. Naloxone may affect some functions of the immune system in humans, but its action is transient. ANIMAL STUDIES: The injection of naloxone into the medial septal nucleus of rats produced a marked increase in hippocampal ACh release in a dose-dependent manner. It was also found that rats given an injection of naloxone showed an increase in motor activity and occasionally exhibited behavioral seizures. Subcutaneous injection of 100 mg/kg/day in rats for 3 weeks produced only transient salivation and partial ptosis following injection. Administration of naloxone to rats from day 17 of pregnancy significantly increased neonatal death. Body weight increase was slightly retarded by administration of naloxone. Naloxone was weakly positive in the Ames mutagenicity test and was negative in the in vitro Chinese hamster V79 cell HGPRT mutagenicity assay and the in vivo rat bone marrow chromosome aberration study.

Interactions
Large doses of naloxone are required to antagonize buprenorphine since the latter has a long duration of action due to its slow rate of binding and subsequent slow dissociation from the opioid receptor. Buprenorphine antagonism is characterized by a gradual onset of the reversal effects and a decreased duration of action of the normally prolonged respiratory depression. The barbiturate methohexital appears to block the acute onset of withdrawal symptoms induced by naloxone in opiate addicts.
The combined admin of flunitrazepam and naloxone to volunteers incr resp frequency and resp min vol but did not alter endexpired pCO2 pressure, resp inhalation vol, or alveolar ventilation when compared with naloxone treatment alone.

Drug Warnings
Nausea and vomiting have been reported rarely in postoperative patients who were receiving a parenteral dose of naloxone hydrochloride greater than that usually recommended; however, a causal relationship has not been established. Tremor and hyperventilation associated with an abrupt return to consciousness has occurred in some patients receiving naloxone for opiate overdosage.
Although a causal relationship to the drug has not been established, severe cardiopulmonary effects (eg, hypotension, hypertension, ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation, dyspnea, pulmonary edema, cardiac arrest) resulting in death, coma, and encephalopathy have been reported in patients following postoperative administration of naloxone hydrochloride. Adverse cardiopulmonary effects have occurred most frequently in postoperative patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease or in those receiving other drugs that produce similar adverse cardiovascular effects.
Seizures have occurred rarely following administration of naloxone hydrochloride; however, a causal relationship to the drug has not been established.
When high oral doses of naloxone have been used in the treatment of opiate addiction, some patients have experienced mental depression, apathy, inability to concentrate, sleepiness, irritability, anorexia, nausea, and vomiting. These adverse effects usually occurred in the first few days of treatment and abated rapidly with continued therapy or dosage reduction. One case of erythema multiforme cleared promptly after naloxone was discontinued.

Pharmacodynamics
Naloxone is an opioid receptor antagonist indicated in the reversal of opioid overdoses. Naloxone has a shorter duration of action than opioids and multiple doses may be required. The therapeutic window of naloxone is wide, as it has no effect if a patient has not taken opioids. Patients treated with naloxone may experience opioid withdrawal and a person administering naloxone should be aware that reversal of opioid overdoses may not resolve all the symptoms a patient is experiencing if other drugs are involved.
