Indicated for the temporary relief of aches and pains in muscles, tendons, and joints.
Following topical administration, methyl nicotinate acts as a peripheral vasodilator to enhance local blood flow at the site of application. It induced vasodilation of the peripheral blood capillaries which are located in the dermal papillae of upper dermis layers adjacent to the epidermisdermis junction. During tissue penetration at the dermis, methyl nicotinate is hydrolyzed to nicotinic acid. In human volunteers, topical administration of methyl nicotinate caused vasodilation-induced generalized cutaneous erythema.
Absorption
The presence of methyl group facilitates the penetration of methyl nicotinate through the skin with good lipophilicity, allowing rapid absorption following topical administration. _In vitro_, about 80-90% of the polar compounds methyl nicotinate rapidly penetrated the skin. It was demonstrated in excised skin of hairless mice that methyl nicotinate can effectively bypass the stratum corneum layer of the skin. In humans, nicotinic acid and nicotinamide were shown to be rapidly absorbed from the stomach and intestine via a sodium carrier-mediated mechanism at low concentrations.
Route of Elimination
Following epicutaneous administration of small radiolabelled dose of methyl nicotinate in human volunteers, approximately 15% of the dose was recovered in the urine within 108 hours after treatment. The excretion of nicotinic acid mainly takes place in the kidneys.
Volume of Distribution
According to the animal studies, nicotinic acid is mainly concentrated in the liver, kidneys, and adipose tissue.
Clearance
No pharmacokinetic data available.
Methyl nicotinate undergoes ester hydrolysis to form nicotinic acid and methanol. The hydrolysis is thought to be mediated by nonspecific -naphthylacetate-esterase at the dermis layer of the skin.
_In vitro_, the half-life of methyl nicotinate in the dermis was 3 to 10 minutes.
While the mechanism of action of methyl nicotinate and other topically-administered nicotinic acid esters is not clear, it is thought that methyl nicotinate promotes the release of prostaglandin D2 that is strictly locally-acting due to its short half-life. It was demonstrated in human subjects that the local cutaneous vascular response to methyl nicotinic was suppressed by inhibitors of prostaglandin biosynthesis, indicating that the effect of methyl nicotinate on vascular smooth muscles may be mediated by the release of local prostaglandins. Prostaglandins released from the skin and blood vessels induce cutaneous vasodilation.
