  • Aripiprazole As an Adjunct to Anti-Depressants for Major Depressive Disorder: Clinical Effectiveness, Cost-Effectiveness, and Guidelines
    TITLE: Aripiprazole as an Adjunct to Anti-Depressants for Major Depressive Disorder: Clinical Effectiveness, Cost-Effectiveness, and Guidelines DATE: 04 May 2016 RESEARCH QUESTIONS 1. What is the clinical efficacy of aripiprazole as an adjunct to antidepressants for the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder who have had an inadequate response to prior antidepressant treatments? 2. What is the cost-effectiveness of aripiprazole as an adjunct to antidepressants for the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder who have had an inadequate response to prior antidepressant treatments? 3. What are the evidence-based guidelines for the use of aripiprazole for the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder who have had an inadequate response to prior antidepressant treatments? KEY FINDINGS Three systematic reviews with meta-analyses, two randomized controlled trials, and two evidence-based guidelines were identified regarding the use of aripiprazole as an adjunct to antidepressants for the treatment of patients with major depressive disorder who have had an inadequate response to prior antidepressant treatments. METHODS A limited literature search was conducted on key resources including PubMed, Ovid PsychINFO, Ovid Embase, The Cochrane Library, University of York Centre for Reviews and Dissemination (CRD) databases, Canadian and major international health technology agencies, as well as a focused Internet search. No methodological filters were used to limit retrieval by study type. Where possible, retrieval was limited to the human population. The search was also limited to English language documents published between January 1, 2014 and April 29, 2016.

JAMES RACHAL, MAJ, USAF, MC, Ehrling Berquist Air Force Hospital, Offutt Air Force Base, Omaha, Nebraska Antidepressant discontinuation syndrome occurs in approximately 20 percent of patients after abrupt discontinuation of an antidepressant medication that was taken for at least six weeks. Typical symptoms of antidepressant discontinuation syndrome include flu-like symptoms, insomnia, nausea, imbalance, sensory disturbances, and hyperarousal. These symptoms usu- ally are mild, last one to two weeks, and are rapidly extinguished with reinstitution of antide- pressant medication. Antidepressant discontinuation syndrome is more likely with a longer duration of treatment and a shorter half-life of the treatment drug. A high index of suspicion should be maintained for the emergence of discontinuation symptoms, which should prompt close questioning regarding accidental or purposeful self-discontinuation of medication. Before antidepressants are prescribed, patient education should include warnings about the potential problems associated with abrupt discontinuation. Education about this common and likely underrecognized clinical phenomenon will help prevent future episodes

  • A Novel Atypical Antidepressant That May Provide New Insights Into the Biomolecular Basis of Depression
    Recent Patents on CNS Drug Discovery, 2006, 1, 29-41 29 Tianeptine: A Novel Atypical Antidepressant that May Provide New Insights into the Biomolecular Basis of Depression Christiaan B. Brink*, Brian H. Harvey and Linda Brand Division of Pharmacology, North-West University (PUK), Potchefstroom, 2520, South Africa Received: July 29, 2005; Accepted: September 05, 2005; Revised: September 12, 2005 Abstract: Tianeptine, an atypical antidepressant patented and developed by Servier, enhances the synaptic reuptake of serotonin, without affecting norepinephrine and dopamine uptake, while it lacks affinity for neurotransmitter receptors. This mechanism for an antidepressant is apparently paradoxical, since the currently employed antidepressants enhance serotonin by inhibiting its breakdown or by inhibiting monoaminergic reuptake. Although tianeptine has been shown to reduce central 5HT availability and to indirecty modulate central adrenergic and dopaminergic systems and to indirectly inhibit cholinergic hyperactivity, its antidepressant action is believed to be more directly related to central neuronal remodeling and restoration of neuronal plasticity. In reliable animal models of depression tianeptine has been shown to prevent neurodegeneration and decreases in hippocampal volume in response to chronic stress. These effects on neuroplasticity are suspected to involve the normalization of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and modulatory effects on excitatory amino acids and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. Together with a body of related studies, these data provide further support for the hypothesis that depression may involve dysregulation of pathways controlling cellular resilience and that treatment should be directed towards the reversal thereof. Importantly, tianeptine is not anxiogenic and has also been shown to be effective in treatment-resistant depression, which may lead the way to a major breakthrough in the treatment of depression.

Methods: 48 elders from two different nursing homes were selected. The collection of demographic and pharmacological data was made utilizing medical records. The medication was classified according to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Code (ATC) criteria. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS 30) and the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) tests were utilized to determine the prevalence of DP and CD. Results: It was observed in the sample a high incidence of DP and CD among the researched elders. More schooling individuals tend to present less CD. Individuals with less CD indicatives present less symptomatology for DP.

  • Efficacy and Tolerability of Aripiprazole Versus D2 Antagonists in the Early
    www.nature.com/npjschz REVIEW ARTICLE OPEN Efficacy and tolerability of aripiprazole versus D2 antagonists in the early course of schizophrenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis David D. Kim1,2, Alasdair M. Barr1,2, Lulu Lian1, Jessica W. Y. Yuen1, Diane Fredrikson3, William G. Honer2,3, Allen E. Thornton2,4 and ✉ Ric M. Procyshyn 2,3 Early intervention is essential for favorable long-term outcomes in schizophrenia. However, there is limited guidance in the scientific literature on how best to choose between dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) partial agonists and D2R antagonists in early stages of schizophrenia. The aim of this meta-analysis was to directly compare D2R partial agonists with D2R antagonists for efficacy and tolerability, using randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that involved participants diagnosed with first-episode psychosis, schizophrenia, or related psychotic disorders with a duration of illness ≤5 years. Fourteen RCTs, involving 2494 patients, were included in the meta-analysis. Aripiprazole was the only identified D2R partial agonist, and was not significantly different from pooled D2R antagonists for overall symptom reduction or all-cause discontinuation. However, aripiprazole was more favorable than pooled D2R antagonists for depressive symptoms, prolactin levels, and triglyceride levels. Specifically, aripiprazole was more favorable than paliperidone for triglyceride levels and more favorable than risperidone and olanzapine, but less favorable than ziprasidone, for weight gain. In addition, aripiprazole was less favorable for akathisia compared with second-generation D2R 1234567890():,; antagonists, in particular olanzapine and quetiapine, and less favorable for discontinuation due to inefficacy than risperidone. Lastly, aripiprazole was more favorable than haloperidol for various efficacy and tolerability outcomes.

  • Aristada Initio (Aripiprazole Lauroxil), in Combination with Oral Aripiprazole for the Initiation of Aristada When Used for the Treatment of Schizophrenia in Adults
    Aristada Initio™ (aripiprazole lauroxil) – New drug approval • On July 2, 2018, Alkermes announced the FDA approval of Aristada Initio (aripiprazole lauroxil), in combination with oral aripiprazole for the initiation of Aristada when used for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults. — The approval of Aristada Initio provides physicians with an alternative regimen to initiate patients onto any dose of Aristada injection on day 1. — Previously, the first Aristada injection was recommended in conjunction with oral aripiprazole for 21 consecutive days. • Oral aripiprazole is generically available as tablets, disintegrating tablets, and solution. Aripiprazole is also available as Abilify Maintena®, a brand extended-release injectable suspension. — The oral formulations are approved for the treatment of schizophrenia and other indications as outlined in the individual drug labels. — Abilify Maintena is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults and as maintenance monotherapy treatment of bipolar I disorder in adults. • Aristada Initio leverages Alkermes’ proprietary NanoCrystal® technology, which provides an extended-release formulation using a smaller particle size compared to Aristada, thereby enabling faster dissolution and more rapid achievement of relevant drug levels. • The effectiveness of Aristada Initio, in combination with oral aripiprazole and for the initiation of Aristada injection, was established by adequate and well-controlled studies of oral aripiprazole and Aristada injection in adult patients with schizophrenia.
