  • ||||||||||  Eight-teen years of triptan use in Korea: A nationwide population-based study () -  Jun 18, 2024 - Abstract #AHS2024AHS_253;    
    Despite the exponential growth in the volume of triptan prescriptions, the proportion of migraine patients receiving triptans remains low, and there is significant variability in prescribing practices across medical specialties. Efforts to reduce the gap in treatment approaches among doctors through more education are needed.

    Cyproheptadine, clonazepam, zolmitriptan, and valproate did not yield significant effects...Trazodone, mianserin, and propranolol appeared as effective alternatives with slightly less favorable efficacy and tolerance profiles. These findings should assist prescribers in selecting an appropriate medication for treating AIA.

    Future studies are warranted to further validate these findings and explore long-term outcomes. In this proof-of-concept study, addition of buspirone/zolmitriptan to the patients' PD medication regimen significantly reduced dyskinesia severity without worsening motor function.

    PD was induced in rats by reserpine at 5?mg/kg ip for 3 days and thereafter the rats were provided with the following treatments for 4 days, zolmitriptan (ZLM) group (30?mg/kg ip); STD group (levodopa?+?carbidopa, 200?+?5?mg/kg ip); ZLM?+?GA group (zolmitriptan, 30?mg/kg ip and glutamic acid, 1.5?mg/kg); ZLM?+?DX group (zolmitriptan, 30?mg/kg ip and dextromethorphan, 20?mg/kg ip). This study concludes by stating that

    Journal:  Evaluation of Dose-Response Relationship of Permeation Enhancer Isopropyl Myristate Release on Drug Release: Release Enhancement Efficiency and Molecular Mechanism. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 24, 2023   
    Isopropyl myristate (IPM) was used as model enhancer and zolmitriptan (ZOL) was used as model drug to investigate dose-effect relationship in pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA)...According to the mechanism research results, the fluidity of PSA increased linearly with the increase of IPM concentrations, but the interaction between IPM and ZOL reached its strongest point at 6%. In summary, the increase of K value (from 0 to 6% IPM content) was caused by the synergy of increased mobility of PSA and interaction (dipole-dipole and hydrogen-bond) among three components, and when the above two actions were in antagonistic, K no longer increased (6-9% IPM content).

    However, the stereoselectivity of the OCT2 was only moderate with the highest selectivity observed for pramipexole...(R)-Tolterodine and (S)-zolmitriptan inhibited OCT3 11-fold and 25-fold more than their respective counterparts...For the tricyclic antidepressant doxepine, only the (E)-isomer showed an increased risk of drug-drug interactions according to guidelines from regulatory authorities for renal transporters. However, most chiral drugs show only minor stereoselectivity in the inhibition of OCTs in vitro, which is unlikely to translate into clinical consequences.

  • ||||||||||  Review, Journal:  The Efficacy of Different Triptans for the Treatment of Acute Headache in Pediatric Migraine: A Systematic Review. (Pubmed Central) -  May 20, 2023   
    We found that rizatriptan (good tolerability profile with a dose of 5 mg) and sumatriptan (oral administration) had higher efficiency as compared to other triptans. Regardless of type or dose, all triptans are generally well tolerated by patients, but a few adverse effects such as light-headedness (sumatriptan), nasopharyngitis, and, muscular spasms (sumatriptan/ naproxen), somnolence, and dry mouth (rizatriptan), and dizziness (zolmitriptan group) were reported with the triptans.

    Journal:  Metabolism of sumatriptan revisited. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 20, 2023   
    The CYP1A2, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6 isoforms converted this drug into N-desmethyl sumatriptan, which was further demethylated to N,N-didesmethyl sumatriptan by CYP1A2 and CYP2D6. Otherwise, sumatriptan and its two desmethyl metabolites were metabolized by recombinant MAO A but not by MAO B to the corresponding acetaldehyde, with sumatriptan being only a poor substrate for MAO A compared to the N-demethylated and the N,N-didemethylated derivatives.

    Zolmitriptan-loaded SLNs via intranasal administration offers a novel approach to effectively circumvent first-pass hepatic metabolism than conventional oral route with 4-fold alleviation in permeation and 2-fold improvement in bioavailability. DATA AVAILABILITY: The data used to support the findings of this study are included within the article.

    Journal:  Effect of 5-HT 1b/1d agonist on ethanol withdrawal syndrome and ethanol withdrawal induced anxiety. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 8, 2022   
    Sumatriptan injectable is more likely to be effective when compared to zolmitriptan nasal spray, octreotide, and nVNS. In conclusion, data of investigation reveal that 5-HT 1b/1d receptor involved in the EWS and treatment with its agonist prevents the behavioural changes in EWS by regulating the level of different neurochemicals.

    The results of this study demonstrate the potential of CS-SA-EC vehicle in buccal mucosa drug delivery. Only three non-oral administration forms with a triptan (subcutaneous sumatriptan and nasal zolmitriptan) resulted in an "onset of action" at ≥30 min; in the future, early onset of action should be a priority in the development of new drugs or new administration-forms for the treatment of acute migraine attacks.

    Clinical, Journal:  Twenty-five years of triptans - a nationwide population study. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 16, 2021   
    In a cohort with access to free clinical consultations and low medication costs, we observed low rates of triptan adherence, likely due to disappointing efficacy and/or unpleasant side effects rather than economic considerations. Triptan success continues to be hindered by poor implementation of clinical guidelines and high rates of treatment discontinuance.
