Description
Sodium fluoride is an inorganic chemical compound. A colorless solid, it is a source of the fluoride ion in diverse applications. Sodium fluoride is less expensive and less hygroscopic than the related salt potassium fluoride.
Indication
To prevent cavities.
Mechanism of Action
Fluorides interfere with electron transport and calcium metabolism. Calcium is essential for maintaining cardiac membrane potentials and in regulating coagulation.
Pharmacokinetics
- Absorption
- Absorbed readily and almost completely from the GI tract. A large amount of an oral dose may be absorbed in the stomach; rate of absorption may depend on the gastric pH.
- Distribution
- Stored in bones and developing teeth after absorption. Fluoride is distributed into sweat, tears, hair, and saliva. Fluoride crosses the placental barrier and is distributed into breast milk.
- Metabolism
- Not metabolized.
- Elimination
Toxicity
Symptom onset usually occurs within minutes of exposure, but may be delayed. Manifestations of fluoride toxicity are predominantly gastrointestinal (GI), but neurologic and cardiovascular effects also occur.
