Peringatan Keamanan

Acute oral LD50 is 2660 mg/kg in rat MSDS. Individuals are likely to be exposed to boric acid from industrial manufacturing or processing. Local tissue injury from boric acid exposure is likely due to caustic effects. Systemic effects from boric acid poisoning usually occur from multiple exposures over a period of days and involve gastrointestinal, dermal, CNS, and renal manifestations. Gastrointestinal toxicity include persistent nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, epigastric pain, hematemesis, and blue-green discoloration of the feces and vomit L2140. Following the onset of GI symptoms, a characteristic intense generalized erythroderma follows L2140. Management of mild to moderate toxicity should be supportive. In case of severe toxicity, dialysis may be required in addition to supportive treatment.

Boric acid

DB11326

small molecule approved

Deskripsi

Boric acid, also known as hydrogen borate, is a weak monobasic Lewis acid of boron with the chemical formula H3BO3. Boric acid is typically utilized in industrial processing and manufacturing, but is also used as an additive in pharmaceutical products, cosmetics, lotions, soaps, mouthwash, toothpaste, astringents, and eyewashes L2140. It is known to exhibit some antibacterial activity against infections such as bacterial vaginosis and candidiasis A32449.

Profil Farmakokinetik

Waktu Paruh (Half-Life) According to human cases of poisoning, the elimination half-life of boric acid ranges from 13 to 24 hours [A32450, L2140].
Volume Distribusi Volume of distribution ranges from 0.17 to 0.5 L/kg in humans, where large amounts of boric acid are localized in brain, liver, and kidney [L2140].
Klirens (Clearance) A case report of acute boric acid poisoning following oral ingestion of 21 g of boric acid presents the total body clearance of 0.99 L/h before hemodialysis [A32450].

Absorpsi

Boric acid is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, open wounds, and serous cavities but displays limited absorption in intact skin L2140. Following intraperitoneal injection in mice, the peak concentration was reached in about 1.0-1.5 hr in the brain whereas the value was 0.5 hr in other tissues L2140.

Metabolisme

No metabolic pathways reported.

Rute Eliminasi

Regardless the route of administration, boric acid predominantly undergoes rapid renal excretion of >90% of total administered dose as unchanged form. Small amounts are also excreted into sweat, saliva, and feces. Following administration as ointment, urinary excretion of boric acid accounted for only 1% of the administered dose L2140.
