Description
(extracted from source data)
ABSORPTION Vilazodone's bioavailability is 72% when taken with food[Label,A38477].
ROE 1% of the dose is recovered unchanged in the urine and 2% of the dose is recovered unchanged in the feces[Label,A38477,A177628].
PHARMACODYNAMICS Vilazodone increases serotonin levels in the brain by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin while acting as a partial agonist on serotonin-1A receptors[Label,A38477,A6947]. Due to this activity vilazodone has sometimes been referred to as a selective partial agonist and reuptake inhibitor (SPARI)[Label,A6947].
MOA Vilazodone selectively inhibits serotonin reuptake in the central nervous system as well as acting as a partial agonist of 5HT-1A receptors[Label,A38477]. The exact mechanism for how these effects translate to its antidepressant effects are not known[Label], though there is an association between these effects and antidepressive activity[A6947].
METABOLISM Vilazodone is mainly metabolized by cytochrome P450(CYP)3A4 and also to a minor extent by CYP2C19 and CYP 2D6[Label,A38477]. Although the metabolic pathway for vilazodone has not been fully studied, a proposed mechanism for metabolism in rats was published in 2017[A177622].;
INDICATION Vilazodone is approved for treatment of major depressive disorder[Label,A38477,A177622].
HALF-LIFE 25 hours[Label,A38477]. Other studies show a half life of 24±5.2h with a single 40mg dose and 28.9±3.2h with repeated doses[A177628].
DESCRIPTION Note that the USAN (United States Adopted Name) refers to the hydrochloride salt which has PubChem CID 6918313. (GtoPdb)
TOXICITY There is a lack of clinical studies of vilazodone in pregnancy[Label]. Animal studies have shown the effects on offspring to be reduced fetal weight, increased mortality, delayed maturation, and decreased fertility in adulthood at doses well above the maximum recommended human dose[Label]. Clinical cases of fetal and neonatal exposure to SSRIs and SNRIs have lead to a number of complications including respiratory distress, seizures, and temperature instability[Label]. It is not know whether vilazodone is excreted in the breast milk of nursing mothers but animal studies show this is the case for rats[Label]. The risk and benefit of breast feeding while taking vilazodone for mother and child must be considered before a decision is made[Label]. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients has not been established in clinical trials though antidepressants are associated with an increased risk of suicidal thought and behaviour in patients under 24 years[Label]. Clinical studies in geriatric patients showed to significant difference in response to vilazodone compared to younger patients[Label]. Geriatric patients should be started at a lower dose and titrated to an effective dose as they are more likely to have other comorbidities[Label]. Dosage adjustments are not necessary for patients of different genders or with reduced hepatic and renal function[Label].
