Side effects of Odipan DSR in details
Clinical Trial Data: The safety of Odipan DSR was evaluated in 1221 patients with gastroparesis, dyspepsia, gastro-oesophageal reflux disorder (GERD) or other related conditions in 45 clinical trials included in the safety database. All patients were ≥15 years and received at least 1 dose of oral Odipan DSR (Odipan DSR base). Slightly fewer than one-half (553/1221) of patients were diabetic. The median total daily dose was 80 mg (range 10-160 mg), with 230 patients receiving a dose >80 mg. Median duration of exposure was 56 days (range 1-2248 days).
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported by ≥1% of patients treated with oral Odipan DSR in these 45 clinical trials (n=1221) are the following: Psychiatric Disorders: Depression (2.5%), anxiety (1.6%), decreased libido/loss of libido (1.5%).
Nervous System Disorders: Headache (5.6%), somnolence (2.5%), akathisia (1%).
Gastrointestinal Disorders: Diarrhoea (5.2%).
Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders: Rash (2.8%), pruritus (1.7%).
Reproductive System and Breast Disorders: Breast enlargement/gynaecomastia (5.3%), breast tenderness (4.4%), galactorrhoea (3.3%), amenorrhoea (2.9%), breast pain (2.3%), irregular menstruation (2%), lactation disorder (1.6%).
General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions: Asthenia (1.9%).
ADRs that occurred in <1% of Odipan DSR-treated patients in the 45 clinical trials (n=1221) are the following: Immune System Disorders: Hypersensitivity (0.2%).
Skin and Subcutaneous Disorders: Urticaria (0.7%).
Reproductive System and Breast Disorders: Breast discharge (0.8%), breast swelling (0.5%).
Dry mouth has been reported with over-the-counter use of Odipan DSR.
Post-Marketing: In addition to the adverse effects reported during clinical studies and previously mentioned, the following adverse drug reactions provided the frequencies according to the following convention: Very common (≥1/10), common (≥1/100 and <1/10); uncommon (≥1/1000 and <1/100); rare (≥1/10,000 and <1/1000); very rare (<1/10,000, including isolated reports).
The following ADRs are presented by frequency category based on spontaneous reporting rates: Immune System Disorders: Very Rare: Anaphylactic reactions (including anaphylactic shock).
Psychiatric Disorders: Very Rare: Agitation, nervousness.
Nervous System Disorders: Very Rare: Extrapyramidal disorder, convulsion.
Cardiac Disorders: Very Rare: Sudden cardiac death*, serious ventricular arrhythmias*.
Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue Disorders: Very Rare: Angioedema.
Renal and Urinary Disorders: Very Rare: Urinary retention.
Investigations: Very Rare: Abnormal liver function test; increased blood prolactin.
Note: *Based on epidemiology data (as follows).
As the hypophysis is outside the blood-brain barrier, Odipan DSR may cause an increase in prolactin levels. In rare cases, this hyperprolactinaemia may lead to neuro-endocrinological side effects eg, galactorrhoea, gynaecomastia and amenorrhoea.
Extrapyramidal disorder occurs primarily in neonates and infants.
Other central nervous system-related effects of convulsion and agitation are also reported primarily in infants and children.
An increase in the risk of serious ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death has been reported in some epidemiology studies. Due to the limitations of these data, risk factors and the exact frequency of these adverse reactions could not be defined.
Odipan DSR contraindications
Hypersensitivity to Odipan DSR or any ingredient of Odipan DSR.
If patients are taking oral ketoconazole, fluconazole, voriconazole, erythromycin, clarithromycin, telithromycin, amiodarone, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, HIV protease inhibitors, calcium antagonists which can increase plasma concentrations of Odipan DSR, leading to a prolonged QTc interval. These medicines can increase plasma concentrations of Odipan DSR leading to a prolonged QTc interval. Patients with long QT syndrome develop a very fast heart rhythm disturbance leading to a sudden loss of consciousness.
Gastrointestinal hemorrhage (bleeding), obstruction, perforation or conditions where gastrointestinal stimulation or movements may be dangerous.
Prolactin-releasing pituitary tumor (prolactinoma).
