|
|
Treat MDD, GAD (minus panic), social anxiety
|
Citalopram, Escitalopram, Fluvoxamine
|
|
Not optically active
|
Paroxetine, Fluvoxamine
|
|
Common SE of all
|
*GI upset that titrates out, sexual dysfxn, HA, insomnia.
**5-HT2agonism → Agitation, Akathisia, Anxiety (low doses actually treats), Panicattacks, Insomnia, Sexual dysfxn. **5-HT3agonism → GI effects (n/d), HA. Nausea>take with food. ...weight gain, increased suicidal thoughts |
|
Risk of DC syndrome worst
|
Sertraline, Paroxetine due to short T1/2
|
|
Strong 2D6 inhibitors
|
Fluoxetine, Paroxetine, Sertraline (less..dose dependent)
|
|
3A4 Inhibitors
|
Fluvoxamine (potent), Fluoxetine, Sertraline (weak)
|
|
Paroxetine
|
highest wt gain, anti-cholinergic SE.
most serotonin specific and activating. |
|
Fluvoxamine
|
rarely used due to 3A4 inhibition
|
|
Sertraline
|
requires higher dose for anxiety than depression
|
|
Fluoxetine- T1/2 & significance
|
longest T1/2 so low withdrawal & 5HT syndrome risk, has active metabolite with longer t1/2.
no affinity for ACh, a1, H1. DC 4 weeks from MAOI (as opposed to 2). VERY strong SERT inhibitor. |
|
Brand> Generic * Citalopram * Escitalopram * Fluoxetine * Paroxetine * Sertraline * Fluvoxamine |
* Celexa * Lexapro * Prozac * Paxil * Zoloft * Luvox |
|
SSRIs MOA |
Primarily just blocks serotonin reuptake |
|
1st line use, onset, why prefer use over others, consult |
* Similar to TCAs, but more favorable SE profile * Onsetof 3-8 wks * Less risk of suicide, b/c overdose causes vomiting → less lethal in overdose * Take with full glass of water to prevent heartburn from pill staying in esophagus * Ask about suicidal (or ‘dark’) thoughts |
|
Serotonin Syndrome |
*Usually due to excess serotonin due to DDI. * MentalStatus Changes, Myoclonus/Hyperreflexia/Tremor - greater in lower extremities, Diaphoresis,Diarrhea, Incoordination |
|
Serotonin Discontinuation Syndrome |
* Must taper SSRIs with short t1/2 or no active metabolites (paroxetine esp). * Sxs:vivid dreams/nightmares, tremors, nausea, dizziness, disorientation. Note: can occur with any class of antidepressants |
|
Only one with no active metabolite, and very short t1/2 |
Paxil |
|
Paxil admin & use |
d/t short 1/2 & no metabolite.... must taper. Avoid in hypersomnia d/t lots sedation. |
|
Most GI upset of the SSRIs also inhibitor of 2D6/3A4 |
Zoloft ... luvox also have significant GI se |
|
Least protein binding > good for warfarin pt |
Celexa ...note... Lexapro not highly protein bound & Zoloft high protein binding |
|
Lexapro vs Celexa |
100x more potent. Less SEs. Negligible cyp interactions, Celexa is weak 2D6 inhibitor. |
|
Similar AE profile |
Fluoxetine, Paroxetine, Sertraline. Light sedation (common to all SSRI) & wt gain. Paxil- most wt gain & some anticholinergic SE. Others have minimal wt gain issue or cholinergic. |
|
OCD - only labeled indication |
luvox |
