This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The motor manifestations of Parkinson’s disease (PD) are secondary to a dopamine deficiency in the striatum. However, the degenerative process in PD is not limited to the dopaminergic system and also affects serotonergic and noradrenergic neurons. Because they can increase monoamine levels throughout the brain, monoamine reuptake inhibitors (MAUIs) represent potential therapeutic agents in PD. However, they are seldom used in clinical practice other than as antidepressants and wake-promoting agents. This review article summarises all of the available literature on use of 50 MAUIs in PD. The compounds are divided according to their relative potency for each of the monoamine transporters. -

Agúndez 2 1 Section of Neurology, Hospital Universitario del Sureste, Arganda del Rey, C/Marroquina 14, 3 B, E28030 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] 2 UNEx, ARADyAL, Instituto de Salud Carlos III, University Institute of Molecular Pathology, E10071 Cáceres, Spain; [email protected] (E.G.-M.); [email protected] (J.A.G.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected]; Tel.: +34-636968395; Fax: +34-913280704 Abstract: Dopaminergic deficiency, shown by many studies using functional neuroimaging with Sin- gle Photon Emission Computerized Tomography (SPECT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), is the most consistent neurochemical feature of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) and, together with transcranial ultrasonography, and determination of alpha-synuclein in certain tissues, should be considered as a reliable marker for the phenoconversion of idiopathic RBD (iRBD) to a synucleopathy (Parkinson’s disease –PD- or Lewy body dementia -LBD). The possible role in the pathogenesis of RBD of other neurotransmitters such as noradrenaline, acetylcholine, and excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters; hormones such as melatonin, and proinflammatory factors have also been suggested by recent reports. In general, brain perfusion and brain glucose metabolism studies have shown patterns resembling partially those of PD and LBD. Finally, the results of structural and functional MRI suggest the presence of structural changes in deep gray matter nuclei, cortical gray matter atrophy, and alterations in the functional connectivity within the basal ganglia, the cortico-striatal, and the cortico-cortical networks, but they should be considered as preliminary. -
Datscan™ (Ioflupane I 123 Injection) Patient Prep: Potential Drug Interference
GE Healthcare DaTscan™ (Ioflupane I 123 Injection) Patient Prep: Potential Drug Interference Drugs that bind to the dopamine transporter with high affinity may interfere with the DaTscan image. Whether discontinuation of these drugs prior to DaTscan administration may minimize the interference with a DaTscan image is unknown. The impact of dopamine agonists and antagonists on DaTscan imaging results has not been established. The benefits and risks of stopping a medication that may interfere with the reliability of the information in a DaTscan image is a medical consideration that should be made on an individual basis. The decision to withhold or stop any potentially interacting medication should be determined by the patient’s physician(s), in consultation with a pharmacist, after obtaining a thorough medication history. The information below is provided for your consideration when evaluating how to handle concomitant medications prior to administration of DaTscan for single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging.1 The following drugs mat not interfere with ioflupane binding: • Cholinesterase inhibitors and neuroleptics • Anti-parkinsonian drugs (eg, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine, dopamine agonists, monoamine oxidase-B inhibitors, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor blockers, amantadine, and catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors in standard dosages) • Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors may increase binding to the DaT somewhat but should not interfere with visual interpretation Medication or drug that may interfere with ioflupane binding. 5 half-lives is approximately equal to: Consider stopping such medication for at least 5 half-lives1 Ephedrine, ketamine, isoflurane 1 day Cocaine, methylphenidate 2 days Methamphetamine, mazindol, modafinil 3 days Benztropine, fentanyl 5 days Amphetamine, Dexamphetamine 7 days Bupropion 8 days Phentermine, phencyclidine 14 days Reference: 1.
