  • Prevalence and Type of Potential Pharmacokinetic Drug-Drug Interactions in Old Aged Psychiatric Patients
    Contemporary Behavioral Health Care Research Article ISSN: 2058-8690 Prevalence and type of potential pharmacokinetic drug- drug interactions in old aged psychiatric patients Gudrun Hefner1,2*, Stefan Unterecker3, Nagia Ben-Omar4, Margarete Wolf4, Tanja Falter2, Christoph Hiemke1 and Ekkehard Haen4 1Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University Medical Center Mainz, Germany 2Institute of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, University Medical Center Mainz, Germany 3Department of Psychiatry, Psychosomatics, and Psychotherapy, University Hospital of Würzburg, Germany 4Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Regensburg, Germany Abstract Purpose: The number of prescribed drugs increases with age, and resulting polypharmacy bears the risk of drug-drug interactions (DDI). We assessed the prevalence and type of cytochrome P450 (CYP) associated pharmacokinetic DDI that were considered as clinically relevant in elderly psychiatric patients under conditions of every day pharmacotherapy. Methods: For retrospective analysis a large therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) data base was used. Patients included were elderly in- and outpatients, aged ≥ 65 years with a psychiatric disorder for whom serum level measurements of a psychotropic drug had been requested. Medication data were examined for co-prescription of clinically relevant CYP inhibitors or inducers and drugs that are substrates of these enzymes (victim drugs). Results: Data from 1243 patients (65.3% female) with a mean (± standard deviation) age of 73 ± 6 years were available for analysis. Mean number of prescribed drugs was 5.3 ± 3.4 per patient. Moderate (n=189, 73.8%) or strong (n=67, 26.2%) CYP inhibitors or inducers were prescribed in 18.9% of all patients. Most frequently prescribed CYP inhibitors were duloxetine (CYP2D6 inhibitor, n=73, 31.7%), melperone (CYP2D6 inhibitor, n=63, 27.4%) and omeprazole (CYP2C19 inhibitor, n=20, 8.7%).

    Second-generation versus first-generation antipsychotic drugs for schizophrenia: a meta- analysis Leucht S, Corves C, D Arbter, Engel R R, Li C, Davis J M CRD summary The authors concluded that amisulpride, clozapine, olanzapine and risperidone can be effective in treating schizophrenia patients. Second-generation antipsychotic drugs can also result in fewer extrapyramidal side effects, but can induce weight gain. The authors' conclusions reflected the evidence presented, but some potential methodological flaws in the review process meant that the extent to which those conclusions were reliable was unclear. Authors' objectives To compare the effects of first and second-generation antipsychotic drugs in schizophrenia patients. Searching The search for eligible studies was started in 2005, including MEDLINE to October 2006, Cochrane Schizophrenia Group's Specialised Register and the US Food and Drugs Administration website. Search terms were reported and there were no language restrictions. Previous reviews were searched for additional relevant studies. Study selection Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of oral second-generation antipsychotic drugs (amisulpride, aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, sertindole, ziprasidone and zotepine) compared with first-generation drugs in patients with schizophrenia or related disorders (schizoaffective, schizophreniform or delusional disorders) irrespective of diagnostic criteria were eligible for inclusion in the review. The optimum doses of second-generation drugs were selected

A stock solution may be made by dissolving the chlorprothixene (hydrochloride) in the solvent of choice. Chlorprothixene (hydrochloride) is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide, which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of chlorprothixene (hydrochloride) in these solvents is approximately 30 mg/ml. Further dilutions of the stock solution into aqueous buffers or isotonic saline should be made prior to performing biological experiments. Ensure that the residual amount of organic solvent is insignificant, since organic solvents may have physiological effects at low concentrations. Organic solvent-free aqueous solutions of chlorprothixene (hydrochloride) can be prepared by directly dissolving the crystalline solid in aqueous buffers. The solubility of chlorprothixene (hydrochloride) in PBS, pH 7.2, is approximately 10 mg/ml. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day.

Purpose for Class Update: Several new antipsychotic drug products have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration since these drug classes were last reviewed by the Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee. Research Questions: 1. Is there new comparative evidence of meaningful difference in efficacy or effectiveness outcomes for schizophrenia, bipolar mania or major depressive disorders (MDD) between oral antipsychotic agents (first‐ or second‐generation) or between parenteral antipsychotic agents (first‐ or second‐generation)? 2. Is there new comparative evidence of meaningful difference in harms between oral antipsychotic agents (first‐ or second‐generation) or between parenteral antipsychotic agents (first‐ or second‐generation)? 3. Is there new comparative evidence of meaningful difference in effectiveness or harms in certain subpopulations based on demographic characteristics? Conclusions: There is insufficient evidence of clinically meaningful differences between antipsychotic agents in efficacy or effectiveness or harms between antipsychotic agents for schizophrenia, bipolar mania or MDD. There is insufficient evidence to determine if brexpiprazole and cariprazine offer superior efficacy or safety to other antipsychotic agents for schizophrenia. There is insufficient evidence to determine if brexpiprazole offers superior efficacy or safety to other antipsychotic agents for MDD.

  • Acepromazine and Chlorpromazine As Pharmaceutical-Grade Alternatives to Chlorprothixene for Pupillary Light Reflex Imaging in Mice
    Journal of the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Vol 59, No 2 Copyright 2020 March 2020 by the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science Pages 197–203 Acepromazine and Chlorpromazine as Pharmaceutical-grade Alternatives to Chlorprothixene for Pupillary Light Reflex Imaging in Mice Samantha S Eckley,1 Jason S Villano,1 Nora S Kuo,1 and Kwoon Y Wong2,* Studies of visual responses in isoflurane-anesthetized mice often use the sedative chlorprothixene to decrease the amount of isoflurane used because excessive isoflurane could adversely affect light-evoked responses. However, data are not available to justify the use of this nonpharmaceutical-grade chemical. The current study tested whether pharmaceutical-grade sedatives would be appropriate alternatives for imaging pupillary light reflexes. Male 15-wk-old mice were injected intraperitoneally with 1 mg/kg chlorprothixene, 5 mg/kg acepromazine, 10 mg/kg chlorpromazine, or saline. After anesthetic induction, anes- thesia maintenance used 0.5% and 1% isoflurane for sedative- and saline-injected mice, respectively. A photostimulus (16.0 log photons cm−2 s−1; 470 nm) was presented to the right eye for 20 min, during which the left eye was imaged for consensual pupillary constriction and involuntary pupil drift. Time to immobilization, loss of righting reflex, physiologic parameters, gain of righting reflex, and degree of recovery were assessed also. The sedative groups were statistically indistinguishable for all measures. By contrast, pupillary drift occurred far more often in saline-treated mice than in the sedative groups. Fur- thermore, saline-treated mice took longer to reach maximal pupil constriction than all sedative groups and had lower heart rates compared with chlorpromazine- and chlorprothixene-sedated mice.

    European Medicines Agency London, 29 October 2009 EMEA/666243/2009 ISSUE NUMBER: 0910 MONTHLY REPORT PHARMACOVIGILANCE WORKING PARTY (PHVWP) OCTOBER 2009 PLENARY MEETING The CHMP Pharmacovigilance Working Party (PhVWP) held its October 2009 plenary meeting on 19-21 October 2009. PhVWP DISCUSSIONS ON SAFETY CONCERNS Below is a summary of the discussions regarding non-centrally authorised medicinal products in accordance with the PhVWP publication policy (see under http://www.emea.europa.eu/htms/human/phv/reports.htm). Positions agreed by the PhVWP for non- centrally authorised products are recommendations to Member States. For safety updates concerning centrally authorised products and products subject to ongoing CHMP procedures, readers are referred to the CHMP Monthly Report (see under http://www.emea.europa.eu/pressoffice/presshome.htm). The PhVWP provides advice on these products to the Committee of Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) upon its request. Antipsychotics - risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) Identify risk factors for VTE for preventive action before and during treatment with antipsychotics The PhVWP completed their review on the risk of VTE of antipsychotics1. The review was triggered by and based on data from the UK spontaneous adverse drug reactions reporting system and the published literature. The PhVWP carefully considered the data, including the limitations of both information sources, such as the lack of randomised controlled trial data, the heterogeneity of published studies and the potential confounding factors such as sedation and weight gain, commonly present in antipsychotic users. The PhVWP concluded that an association between VTE and antipsychotics cannot be excluded. Distinguishing different risk levels between the various active substances was not possible.
