Methylphenidate Hydrochloride
Application for Inclusion to the 22nd Expert Committee on the Selection and Use of Essential Medicines: METHYLPHENIDATE HYDROCHLORIDE December 7, 2018 Submitted by: Patricia Moscibrodzki, M.P.H., and Craig L. Katz, M.D. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Graduate Program in Public Health New York NY, United States Contact: [email protected] TABLE OF CONTENTS Page 3 Summary Statement Page 4 Focal Point Person in WHO Page 5 Name of Organizations Consulted Page 6 International Nonproprietary Name Page 7 Formulations Proposed for Inclusion Page 8 International Availability Page 10 Listing Requested Page 11 Public Health Relevance Page 13 Treatment Details Page 19 Comparative Effectiveness Page 29 Comparative Safety Page 41 Comparative Cost and Cost-Effectiveness Page 45 Regulatory Status Page 48 Pharmacoepial Standards Page 49 Text for the WHO Model Formulary Page 52 References Page 61 Appendix – Letters of Support 2 1. Summary Statement of the Proposal for Inclusion of Methylphenidate Methylphenidate (MPH), a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant, of the phenethylamine class, is proposed for inclusion in the WHO Model List of Essential Medications (EML) & the Model List of Essential Medications for Children (EMLc) for treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) under ICD-11, 6C9Z mental, behavioral or neurodevelopmental disorder, disruptive behavior or dissocial disorders. To date, the list of essential medications does not include stimulants, which play a critical role in the treatment of psychotic disorders. Methylphenidate is proposed for inclusion on the complimentary list for both children and adults. This application provides a systematic review of the use, efficacy, safety, availability, and cost-effectiveness of methylphenidate compared with other stimulant (first-line) and non-stimulant (second-line) medications. -

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. -
Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Amantadine and Memantine

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. -

Positron Emission Tomography Studies of Potential Mechanisms Underlying Phencyclidine-Induced Alterations in Striatal Dopamine

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. -

Woelfel, Ph.D., FASCP, R.Ph., Assistant Editor Health care professionals are frequently asked questions about false-positive drug testing results. Testing is a common practice in work settings, rehabilitation programs, the military, and legal and judicial venues. Home testing is popular with the availability of test kits to alleviate parental or job-seeker concerns. Federally regulated workplace drug testing and most private sector workplace programs specify urine testing as their initial standard test. Other expanded tests may be required in some settings.
