基本介绍

A fatty acid with anticonvulsant properties used in the treatment of epilepsy. The mechanisms of its therapeutic actions are not well understood. It may act by increasing gamma-aminobutyric acid levels in the brain or by altering the properties of voltage dependent sodium channels. Typically supplied in the sodium salt form (76584-70-8). Valproic Acid is also a histone deacetylase inhibitor and is under investigation for treatment of HIV and various cancers.

药理
Indication For treatment and management of seizure disorders, mania, and prophylactic treatment of migraine headache.
Pharmacodynamics Valproic Acid is an anticonvulsant and mood-stabilizing drug used primarily in the treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. It is also used to treat migraine headaches and schizophrenia. In epileptics, valproic acid is used to control absence seizures, tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal), complex partial seizures, and the seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Valproic Acid is believed to affect the function of the neurotransmitter GABA (as a GABA transaminase inhibitor) in the human brain. Valproic Acid dissociates to the valproate ion in the gastrointestinal tract. Valproic acid has also been shown to be an inhibitor of an enzyme called histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). HDAC1 is needed for HIV to remain in infected cells. A study published in August 2005 revealed that patients treated with valproic acid in addition to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) showed a 75% reduction in latent HIV infection.
Mechanism of action Valproic Acid binds to and inhibits GABA transaminase. The drug's anticonvulsant activity may be related to increased brain concentrations of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS, by inhibiting enzymes that catabolize GABA or block the reuptake of GABA into glia and nerve endings. Valproic Acid may also work by suppressing repetitive neuronal firing through inhibition of voltage-sensitive sodium channels. It is also a histone deacetylase inhibitor.
Absorption Rapid absorption from gastrointestinal tract.

Protein binding Concentration-dependent, from 90% at 40 µg/mL to 81.5% at 130 µg/mL.
Metabolism
Valproic Acid is metabolized almost entirely by the liver. In adult patients on monotherapy, 30-50% of an administered dose appears in urine as a glucuronide conjugate. Mitochondrial ß-oxidation is the other major metabolic pathway, typically accounting for over 40% of the dose. Usually, less than 15-20% of the dose is eliminated by other oxidative mechanisms. Less than 3% of an administered dose is excreted unchanged in urine.

                  Asenapine Valproate completely inhibits the glucuronidation of asenapine but does not effect its exposure. Dose adjustment is not necessary with concomitant therapy.
                  Carbamazepine Decreases the effect of valproic acid
                  Clarithromycin The macrolide antibiotic, Erythromycin, may increase the serum concentratin of Valproic acid. Consider alternate therapy or monitor for changes in Valproic acid therapeutic and adverse effects if Clarithromycin is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Eltrombopag Affects hepatic CYP2C9/10 metabolism, will increase effect/level of eltrombopag.
                  Erythromycin The macrolide antibiotic, Erythromycin, may increase the serum concentratin of Valproic acid. Consider alternate therapy or monitor for changes in Valproic acid therapeutic and adverse effects if Erythromycin is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Felbamate Felbamate, a CYP2C19 inhibitor, may decrease the metabolism of Valproic acid, a CYP2C19 substrate. Consider alternate therapy or monitor for changes in Valproic acid therapeutic and adverse effects if Felbamate is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Glycerol Phenylbutyrate Valproic acid may induce hyperammonemia. Monitor ammonia levels closely when use of valproic acid is necessary in UCD patients.
                  Lacosamide Valproic acid toxicity may occur at any time during the treatment course and should be considered in patients with acute changes in mentation, especially if there has been a recent change in antiepileptic therapy.
                  Lamotrigine Valproic acid may increase the adverse effects of Lamotrigine by increasing Lamotrigine serum concentration. The Lamotrigine dose should be reduced by 50% during concomitant therapy. Monitor for changes in Lamotrigine therapeutic and adverse effects if Valproic acid is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Lorazepam Valproic acid may increase the serum concentration of Lorazepam by reducing Lorazepam metabolism. The Lorazepam dose should be reduced by 50% during concomitant therapy. Monitor for increased Lorazepam effects and toxicity.
                  Nimodipine Valproic acid increases the effect of nimodipine
                  Rifampin Rifampin may reduce the serum concentration of Valproic acid by increasing Valproic acid metabolism. Valproic acid dose adjustments may be required during concomitant therapy. Monitor Valproic acid serum concentrations, efficacy and toxicity if Rifampin is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Rufinamide Valproic acid may increase the therapeutic/toxic effects of Rufinamide. Consider alternate therapy or monitor for changes in Rufinamide serum concentrations, therapeutic and adverse effects if Valproic acid is initiated, discontinued or dose changed. Decreases clearance of rufinamide and is a selective inhibitor of human carboxylesterase thus increasing serum concentrations.
                  Silodosin Strong UGT2B7 inhibitors may increase levels of silodosin. Monitor concomitant therapy closely.
                  Telithromycin The macrolide antibiotic, Erythromycin, may increase the serum concentratin of Valproic acid. Consider alternate therapy or monitor for changes in Valproic acid therapeutic and adverse effects if Telithromycin is initiated, discontinued or dose changed.
                  Tipranavir Tipranavir decreases the concentration of Valproic acid. Monitor Valproid acid efficacy.
