Selegiline Transdermal

Pronouncation: (se-LEJ-i-leen transdermal)
Class: Antidepressant

Trade Names:
Emsam
- Transdermal system 6 mg per 24 hr (20 mg per 20 cm 2 )
- Transdermal system 9 mg per 24 hr (30 mg per 30 cm 2 )
- Transdermal system 12 mg per 24 hr (40 mg per 40 cm 2 )

Mechanism of Action

Pharmacology

Potentiation of monoamine neurotransmitter activity in the CNS resulting from inhibition of MAO activity is suspected.

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption

Following dermal application, 25% to 30% of the selegiline content is delivered systemically over 24 hr. The degree of absorption may be one-third higher than amounts of 6 to 12 mg per 24 hr. Because extensive first-pass metabolism occurs with oral administration, substantially higher exposure to selegiline and lower exposure to metabolites occur with transdermal dosing.

Distribution

Plasma protein binding is approximately 90%.

Metabolism

The major enzymes involved with selegiline metabolism appear to be CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4/5, with CYP2A6 having a minor role.

Elimination

Urine and fecal elimination account for about 10% and 2%, respectively, of a dermal dose. At least 63% of the dose is not absorbed.

Special Populations

Renal Function Impairment

No adjustment of dermal dose is required with renal function impairment.

Hepatic Function Impairment

No adjustment of dermal dose is required with moderate liver function impairment.

Indications and Usage

Treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD).

Contraindications

Coadministration with any of the following: analgesic agents (eg, tramadol, methadone, propoxyphene), bupropion, carbamazepine, cocaine or local anesthetics, cyclobenzaprine, dextromethorphan, dual serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (eg, venlafaxine), meperidine, mirtazapine, oral selegiline or other MAO inhibitors (eg, phenelzine), oxcarbazepine, SSRIs (eg, fluoxetine), St. John"s wort, sympathomimetic amines (eg, amphetamine), tricyclic antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline), vasoconstrictors (eg, pseudoephedrine). Patients with pheochromocytoma; hypersensitivity to any component of the product. Patients should not undergo elective surgery requiring general anesthetics. Discontinue selegiline transdermal at least 10 days prior to elective surgery.

Dosage and Administration

Adults

Transdermal Recommended starting and target dose is 6 mg per 24 hr. Based on clinical judgement, the dose may be increased in increments of 3 mg per 24 hr at intervals of no less than 2 wk (max, 12 mg per 24 hr).

General Advice

  • Apply to dry, intact skin on upper torso (below the neck and above the waist), upper thigh, or outer surface of upper arm.
  • Apply to an area that is not hairy, oily, irritated, broken, scared, or calloused.
  • Do not apply to area where clothing is tight, which might cause patch to rub off.
  • Gently wash area with warm water and soap, then dry thoroughly before applying patch.
  • Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after applying patch.
  • Remove patch after 24 hr.

Storage/Stability

Store at 68° to 77°F. Do not store outside sealed pouch.

Drug Interactions

Analgesics (eg, methadone, propoxyphene, tramadol), bupropion, carbamazepine, cocaine or local anesthetics, cyclobenzaprine, dextromethorphan, dual serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (eg, venlafaxine), mirtazapine, oral selegiline or other MAO inhibitors (eg, phenelzine), oxcarbazepine, St. John"s wort, SSRIs (eg, fluoxetine), sympathomimetic amines (eg, amphetamine), tricyclic antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline), vasoconstrictors (eg, pseudoephedrine)

Coadministration with selegiline is contraindicated.

Buspirone

Increased BP may occur.

Drugs affecting monoamine activity (eg, amphetamines, meperidine, pentazocine, SSRIs, tricyclic antidepressants)

Severe, life-threatening toxicity, including serotonin syndrome (eg, rigidity, muscle twitching, mental status change, autonomic instability), may occur.

General anesthetics

Patients should not undergo elective surgery requiring general anesthetics; discontinue selegiline transdermal at least 10 days prior to elective surgery.

Oral contraceptives

Selegiline plasma levels may be elevated, increasing the pharmacologic and adverse effects.

Tyramine-containing nutritional supplements

Should be avoided.

Mania/Hypomania

Activation may occur; use with caution in patients with history of mania.

Screening for bipolar disorder

Prior to initiating treatment, adequately screen patients with depressive symptoms to determine risk of bipolar disorder.
