LortabThis page contains recent news articles, when available, and an overview of Lortab but does not offer medical advice. You should contact your physician with regard to any health issues or concerns.Overview: Lortab (when available) When 800 mg Valstar was administered intravesically to patients with carcinoma in situ, Valstar penetrated into the bladder wall. The mean total anthracycline concentration measured in bladder tissue exceeded the levels causing 90% cytoxicity to human bladder cells cultured in vitro. During the two-hour dose-retention period, the metabolism of Valstar to its major metabolites N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin and N-trifluoroacetyladriamycinol was neglible. After retention, the drug was almost completely excreted by voiding the instillate. Mean percent recovery of Valstar, N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin, and total anthracyclines in 14 urine samples from six patients was 98.6%, 0.4%, and 99.0% of the total administered drug, respectively. During the two-hour dose-retention period, only nanogram quantities of Valstar were absorbed into the plasma. Bladder cancer Mechanism Of Action: Valrubicin is an anthracycline that affects a variety of inter-related biological functions, most of which involve nucleic acid metabolism. It readily penetrates into cells, where it inhibits the incorporation of nucleosides into nucleic acids, causes extensive chromosomal damage, and arrests cell cycle in G2. Although valrubicin does not bind strongly to DNA, a principal mechanism of its action, mediated by valrubicin metabolites, is interference with the normal DNA breaking-resealing action of DNA topoisomerase II.
