EOHILIA vs TRIACET
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
EOHILIA (budesonide) is a corticosteroid with potent glucocorticoid activity and weak mineralocorticoid activity. It binds to the glucocorticoid receptor, leading to inhibition of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines and arachidonic acid metabolites, thereby reducing inflammation in the esophagus.
Triacetin is a triester of glycerol and acetic acid. Its exact mechanism of action is not fully understood, but it exhibits antifungal activity by disrupting fungal cell membrane integrity and inhibiting fungal growth.
For adults: 0.5 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks, infused over 60 minutes. Maximum single dose: 40 mg.
0.5-1 mg orally three times daily; maximum dose 4 mg/day.

Terminal elimination half-life is 52 hours (steady state reached after 10-12 days of daily dosing)
Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 3.5–4 hours in adults with normal renal function; may be prolonged (up to 6–8 hours) in patients with hepatic impairment.
Renal (70% unchanged drug), fecal (12%) and biliary (5%)
Renal, unchanged drug: <1% of dose; metabolites: approximately 20% in urine, remainder in feces via biliary elimination.
