Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor renal function (at baseline and at least annually thereafter), EEG. Assess for risk of seizure (prior to treatment initiation), walking ability.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Diaphoresis, dizziness, altered mental state, confusion, tremulousness, involuntary and choreoathetoid movements, seizures (including status epilepticus), amnesia, cardiac arrhythmias (e.g. supraventricular tachycardia or bradycardia), ventricular tachycardia, hypertension. Management: Supportive treatment. May administer benzodiazepines, phenytoin, or other appropriate anti-seizure therapy for repeated seizure activity.
Tương tác
May increase serum concentration and increase risk of seizure with organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) inhibitors (e.g. cimetidine, quinidine) and substrates (e.g. carvedilol, metformin, propranolol).
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Fampridine, an aminopyridine, is a broad-spectrum K channel blocker. Its exact mechanism of action has not been fully established, however, studies show that it increases conduction of action potential in focally demyelinated axons by delaying repolarization and prolonging duration of action potential, thereby strengthening muscle fibre twitch activity and improving peripheral motor neurologic function. Synonym(s): Dalfampridine. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly and extensively absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Bioavailability: 96% (relative to aqueous solution). Time to peak plasma concentration: 3-4 hours. Distribution: Volume of distribution: 2.6 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: Minimal (1-3%). Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver by CYP2E1 isoenzyme into inactive metabolites, 3-hydroxy-4-aminopyridine; further conjugated to 3-hydroxy-4-aminopyridine sulfate. Excretion: Mainly via urine (96%; 90% as unchanged drug); faeces (0.5%). Elimination half-life: 5.2- 6.5 hours.
