- ) Paget disease- 40 mg PO QD for 6 months
Alendronate MOA
Alendronate binds to bone hydroxyapatite and, at the cellular level, inhibits osteoclast activity, thereby inhibiting bone resorption and modulating bone metabolism.
Alendronate contraindications
Esophageal abnormalities
Hypersensitivity
Hypocalcemia
Inability to sit or stand upright for at least 30 min
Increased risk for adverse esophageal effects
DDI alendronate
Aluminum, calcium, magnesium, or iron containing products- decreases biphosphonate abs
Alendronate common AE
Fever, gastric ulcer, decreased serum calcium
Alendronate rare but serious AE
Osteonecrosis of the jaw, esophageal cancer, immune hypersensitivity, arrhythmia, fractures
Amitriptyline class
TCA
Amitriptyline indication
Depression- 75 mg divided into 1-3 daily doses
Amitriptyline MOA
Amitriptyline is a TCA that blocks presynaptic reuptake of serotonin and NE with subsequent downregulation of adrenergic receptors
Amitriptyline BBW
Suicidality, not approved for children <12 years of age
Amitriptyline contraindications
Hypersensitivity
Concurrent MAOI or MAOI use in last 14 days
Use during acute recovery period after MI
Coadministration of cisapride
Amitriptyline DDI
Anticholinergics- additive AE
Antiarrhythmics, and drugs that increase QTc prolongation- increased risk of cardiotoxicity
CYP2D6 inhibitors- decreased amitriptyline metabolism increases risk of toxicity
Linezolid, MAOIs, methylene blue, SSRIs- increased risk of serotonin syndrome
Amitriptyline common AE
Sedation
Amitriptyline rare but serious AE
Cardiac dysrhythmia, hepatotoxicity, seizures, suicidal thoughts
Anastrozole class
Aromatase inhibitor
Anastrozole indication
- ) Breast cancer, adjuvant, postmenopausal, hormone receptor positive- 1 mg QD for 5-10 years
- ) Breast cancer, advanced or metastatic, postmenopausal, following tamoxifen therapy- 1 mg QD until tumor progression
Anastrozole MOA
Adrenally generated androstenedione is the primary source of estrogen in postmenopausal women and is converted to estrone by aromatase. Anastrozole is a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor.
Anastrozole contraindications
Hypersensitivity and pregnancy
Anastrozole DDI
Tamoxifen- reduced anastrozole levels
Anastrozole common AE
Edema, HTN, vasodilation, nausea, vomiting, arthralgia, arthritis, osteoporosis, hot flashes, depression, GI tract disorder
Anastrozole rare but serious AE
MI, endometrial cancer, cerebrovascular accident
Bupropion class
Monocyclic antidepressant
Bupropion FDA indication
- ) Depression- 100 mg BID x 3 days, increase to 100 mg TID
- ) SAD- 150 mg QD
- ) Smoking cessation assistance- 150mg BID
Bupropion MOA
Bupropion is a monocyclic antidepressant, unique as a mild dopamine and norepinephrine uptake inhibitor with no direct effects on serotonin receptors or MAO
Bupropion BBW
Suicidality
Neuropsychiatric reactions
Bupropion Contraindications
Seizure disorder, history of anorexia/bulimia
Use of MAOI within 14 days
Patients undergoing abrupt d/c of ethanol, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, or antiepileptics
Bupropion DDI
Alcohol- increased risk of seizures
CYP3A4/5, 2B6 inducers- increased bupropion metabolism, reduces bupropion effectiveness
CYP3A4/5,2B6 inhibitors- decreased bupropion metabolism increases risk of toxicity
CYP2D6 substrates- decreased metabolism of substrates or activation of prodrugs requiring CYP2D6
Bupropion common AE
Agitation, constipation, dizziness, HA, insomnia, nausea, tachyarrhythmia, tremor, xerostomia
Bupropion rare but serious AE
Cardiac dysrhythmia, mania, seizure, suicidal thoughts, wide QRS complex
Citalopram class
SSRI
Citalopram indication
Depression- 20 mg QD
Citalopram MOA
Citalopram is a bicyclic antidepressant that is a selective and potent inhibitor of presynaptic reuptake of serotonin. It does not affect the reuptake of NE or dopamine and has a relative lack of affinity for muscarinic, histamine, alpha1 and alpha2 adrenergic, and serotonin receptors.
Citalopram BBW
Suicidal ideation, not approved for use in children
Citalopram contraindication
Hypersensitivity, concomitant use of pimozide, MAOIs
Citalopram DDI
Anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, NSAIDs- increased risk of bleeding
Dextroamphetamine, triptans, linezolid, lithium, MAOIs- serotonin syndrome
CYP2C19 and CYP3A4/5 inducers- increased citalopram metabolism reduces citalopram effectiveness
CYP2C19 and CYP3A4/5 inhibitors- decreased citalopram metabolism increases risk of citalopram toxicity
Citalopram common AE
Constipation, dizziness, HA, insomnia, N, sedation, xerostomia
Citalopram rare but serious AE
Prolonged QTc interval, serotonin syndrome, suicidal thoughts, torsades de pointes, agranulocytosis
Escitalopram class
SSRI antidepressant
Escitalopram indication
- ) Depression-10-20mg QD
2. ) Anxiety- 10-20mg QD
Escitalopram MOA
Escitalopram is the s-enantiomer of racemic citalopram and is an antidepressant that is a selective and potent inhibitor of presynaptic reuptake of serotonin (SSRI). It does not affect reuptake of NE or dopamine and has a relative lack of affinity for muscarinic, histamine, alpha1 and 2, and serotonin receptors.
