OBJECTIVES • Trade and generic names • Mechanism of action • Clinical use • Side effects • Drug interactions • Life style
INEGY • Therapeutic class : • Lipid-Lowering Agents • Pharmacological class : • HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors
Trade name : • Inegy • generic name: • Simvastatin & Ezetimibe
Uses of Inegy: • The main effects that produce from this drug are: • lower levels of total cholesterol, (LDL cholesterol) and triglycerides in the blood. • Raises levels of (HDL cholesterol). • Hypercholesterolaemia
So. It can use if patient has: • Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (HoFH) • patients not appropriately controlled with a statin alone • patients treated with a statin and ezetimibe
Side effect Headache. Fatigue Constipation Abdominal pain Indigestion Diarrhea Nausea ,vomiting. Hot flushes. Myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis. Myoglobinuria and acute renal failure . Photosensitivity, purpura, and alopecia.
Drug - drug interaction Mainly for Simvastatin Warfarin Aspirin Niacin Fibrate Erythromycin Verapamil
Simvastatin ↔ Warfarin • It acts by affecting hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism that lead to: • Reversible Rhabdomyolysis . • Acute renal failure
Simvastatin&ezetimibe • ↔cholestyramine • cholestyramine decreases levels of ezetimibe and simvastatin by inhibition of GI absorption.
Simvastatin ↔ Niacin • Either increases toxcity of the other by pharmacodynamicsynergism that increase risk of : • (Rhabdomyolysis ) for Both
simvastatin ↔ fibrate • E.g. Gemfibrozil. • Either increases effects of the other by pharmacodynamic synergism lead to : • Liver damaged . • Severe myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis • renal failure secondary to Myoglobinuria and may result in death. • increased risk of musculoskeletal toxicity.
simvastatin ↔ verapamilSimvastatin ↔ erythromycin • Verapamil • erythromycin • hypertension • angina pectoris • cardiac arrhythmia • Anti-biotic • infections
simvastatin ↔ verapamilSimvastatin ↔ erythromycin • They will increase the level or effect of simvastatin by affecting hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism that lead to : • myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis • renal failure secondary to Myoglobinuria and may result in death. • increased risk of musculoskeletal toxicity.
simvastatin level • Bosentan • (pulmonary artery hypertension) • Carbamazepine • (seizure disorders and neuropathic pain.) • Efavirenz • (human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. ) • Rifampicin • (tuberculosis )
