Tablets should be protected from moisture (Prod Info FOCALIN(TM) XR, 2005; Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001d). 1.3 Adult Dosage Normal Dosage Dosage in Renal Failure Dosage in Hepatic Insufficiency 1.3.1 Normal Dosage 1.3.1.A Dexmethylphenidate Hydrochloride 1.3.1.A.1 Oral route 1.3.1.A.1.a Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder 1) Extended-Release a) The recommended starting dose for patients not currently taking dexmethylphenidate or racemic methylphenidate, or for patients who are on stimulants other than methylphenidate, is 10 milligrams (mg)/day in the morning. The dose may be adjusted weekly in 10 mg increments to a maximum of 20 mg/day for adult patients. The patient should be observed for a sufficient duration at a given dose to ensure that a maximal benefit has been achieved before a dose increase is considered (Prod Info FOCALIN(TM) XR, 2005). b) For patients currently using methylphenidate, the recommended starting dose is half the total daily dose of racemic methylphenidate. Patients using immediate-release dexmethylphenidate may be switched to the same daily dose of extended-release dexmethylphenidate. Maximum recommended dose is 20 milligrams/day (Prod Info FOCALIN (TM) XR, 2005). c) The treatment duration is unclear, however, it is generally agreed that pharmacological treatment of ADHD may be needed for extended periods. The patient should be periodically reevaluated with periods off medication to assess patient's functioning without pharmacotherapy (Prod Info FOCALIN(TM) XR, 2005). d) If paradoxical aggravation of symptoms or other adverse events occur, the dosage should be reduced or, if necessary, the drug should be discontinued (Prod Info FOCALIN(TM) XR, 2005). e) If improvement is not observed after appropriate dosage adjustment over a 1-month period, the drug should be discontinued (Prod Info FOCALIN(TM) XR, 2005). 1.3.2 Dosage in Renal Failure A) Dexmethylphenidate Hydrochloride 1) Pharmacokinetic data for dexmethylphenidate in renal impairment are unavailable. However, data for racemic methylphenidate indicate that only small amounts are excreted unchanged in the urine (about 1%) Exhibit E.11, page 2 http://www.thomsonhc.com/hcs/librarian/PFDefaultActionId/pf.PrintReady 7/7/2009 MICROMEDEX® Healthcare Series : Document Page 3 of 31 Case 3:09-cv-00080-TMB Document 78-23 Filed 03/24/2010 Page 3 of 105 (USPDI, 2001; Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001); thus, dose adjustments of dexmethylphenidate do not appear to be necessary in this population. 1.3.3 Dosage in Hepatic Insufficiency A) Dexmethylphenidate Hydrochloride 1) Similar to methylphenidate, dexmethylphenidate undergoes hepatic metabolism (USPDI, 2001); (Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001). Dose adjustment should be considered in patients with moderate or greater hepatic dysfunction. Specific guidelines for dexmethylphenidate or the racemic compound are unavailable. 1.4 Pediatric Dosage Normal Dosage Dosage in Renal Failure Dosage in Hepatic Insufficiency 1.4.1 Normal Dosage 1.4.1.A Dexmethylphenidate Hydrochloride 1.4.1.A.1 Oral route 1.4.1.A.1.a Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder 1) Immediate-Release a) The efficacy of dexmethylphenidate has been demonstrated only in patients 6 to 17 years of age. The drug should be given twice daily, at least 4 hours apart; it can be given with or without food (Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001). b) In patients not currently receiving racemic methylphenidate, or for those who are on stimulants other than methylphenidate, the manufacturer recommends an initial dose of 2.5 milligrams (mg) twice daily, with dose adjustments in 2.5- to 5-mg increments to a maximum of 10 mg twice daily; dose adjustments may be undertaken at approximately weekly intervals (Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001). An extended-release methylphenidate formulation (duration, 8 hours) may be preferable, as administration of doses during school can be eliminated; generic formulations are available. c) For patients who are currently receiving racemic methylphenidate, the initial dose recommended by manufacturer is half the dose of methylphenidate, with a maximum daily dose of 20 mg (10 mg twice daily) (Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001). However, available data suggest no clinical advantage in switching to the d-enantiomer. d) The longest duration of effective treatment in clinical studies with dexmethylphenidate has been 6 weeks (Prod Info Focalin(TM), 2001). However, prolonged use may be indicated. Racemic methylphenidate has maintained improvement for up to 2 years. 2) Extended-Release a) The recommended starting dose for patients not currently taking dexmethylphenidate or racemic methylphenidate, or for patients who are on stimulants other than methylphenidate, is 5 milligrams (mg)/day in the morning. The dose may be adjusted weekly in 5 mg increments to a maximum of 20 mg/day for pediatric patients. The patient should be observed for a sufficient duration at a given dose to ensure that a maximal benefit has been achieved before a dose increase is considered (Prod Info FOCALIN XR(R) extended-release oral capsules, 2008). b) For patients currently using methylphenidate, the recommended starting dose is half the total daily dose of racemic methylphenidate. Patients using immediate-release dexmethylphenidate may be switched to the same daily dose of extended-release dexmethylphenidate. Maximum recommended dose is 20 milligrams/day (Prod Info FOCALIN XR(R) extended-release oral capsules, 2008). c) The treatment duration is unclear, however, it is generally agreed that pharmacological treatment of ADHD may be needed for extended periods. The patient should be periodically reevaluated with periods off medication to assess patient's functioning without pharmacotherapy (Prod Info FOCALIN XR(R)

  • The Stimulants and Hallucinogens Under Consideration: a Brief Overview of Their Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 17 (1986) 107-118 107 Elsevier Scientific Publishers Ireland Ltd. THE STIMULANTS AND HALLUCINOGENS UNDER CONSIDERATION: A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THEIR CHEMISTRY AND PHARMACOLOGY LOUIS S. HARRIS Dcparlmcnl of Pharmacology, Medical College of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth Unwersity, Richmond, VA 23298 (U.S.A.) SUMMARY The substances under review are a heterogenous set of compounds from a pharmacological point of view, though many have a common phenylethyl- amine structure. Variations in structure lead to marked changes in potency and characteristic action. The introductory material presented here is meant to provide a set of chemical and pharmacological highlights of the 28 substances under con- sideration. The most commonly used names or INN names, Chemical Abstract (CA) names and numbers, and elemental formulae are provided in the accompanying figures. This provides both some basic information on the substances and a starting point for the more detailed information that follows in the individual papers by contributors to the symposium. Key words: Stimulants, their chemistry and pharmacology - Hallucinogens, their chemistry and pharmacology INTRODUCTION Cathine (Fig. 1) is one of the active principles of khat (Catha edulis). The structure has two asymmetric centers and exists as two geometric isomers, each of which has been resolved into its optical isomers. In the plant it exists as d-nor-pseudoephedrine. It is a typical sympathomimetic amine with a strong component of amphetamine-like activity. The racemic mixture is known generically in this country and others as phenylpropanolamine (dl- norephedrine). It is widely available as an over-the-counter (OTC) anti- appetite agent and nasal decongestant.

ARADyAL Instituto de Salud Carlos III, E-10071 Cáceres, Spain; [email protected] (E.G.-M.); [email protected] (J.A.G.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-636968395 Received: 2 October 2020; Accepted: 6 November 2020; Published: 9 November 2020 Abstract: We have reviewed current data on the anti-inflammatory effects of amantadine and memantine in clinical and in vivo models of inflammation, and we propose that these effects have potential interest for the treatment of the SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19 disease). To that end, we performed a literature search using the PubMed Database from 1966 up to October 31 2020, crossing the terms “amantadine” and “memantine” with “inflammation” and “anti-inflammatory”. Amantadine and/or memantine have shown anti-inflammatory effects in chronic hepatitis C, in neuroinflammation induced by sepsis and by lipopolysaccharides, experimental models of multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and respiratory diseases. Since the inflammatory response is one of the main pathogenetic mechanisms in the progression of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, anti-inflammatory effects of amantadine and memantine could be hypothetically useful in the treatment of this condition. This potential utility deserves further research. Keywords: amantadine; memantine; anti-inflammatory effects; SARS-Cov-2; COVID-19; therapy 1.

In addition, we explored the hypotheses that GABAergic pathways as well as molecular targets beyond the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex (ie dopamine transporter proteins, DAT) contribute to PCP’s effects. In 11 the first series of experiments, C-raclopride was administered at baseline and 30 min following intravenous PCP administration. In the second series of studies, g-vinyl GABA (GVG) was used to assess whether enhanced GABAergic tone altered NMDA antagonist- induced changes in DA. Animals received an initial PET scan followed by pretreatment with GVG (300 mg/kg), then PCP 30 min prior to 11 a second scan. Finally, we explored the possible contributions of DAT blockade to PCP-induced increases in DA. By examining C- cocaine binding a paradigm in which PCP was coadministered with the radiotracer, we assessed the direct competition between these 11 two compounds for the DAT. At 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/kg, PCP decreased C-raclopride binding by 2.1, 14.9 7 2.2 and 8.18 7 1.1%, 11 respectively.
