Maprotiline 화학적 특성, 용도, 생산

• 용도

  Maprotiline disrupts neuronal reuptake of monoamines in the CNS and possesses moderate tranquilizing and cholinergic activity. It improves mood significantly and relieves feelings of fear. Maprotiline is used in various forms of depression accompanied by a feeling of fear and irritability.

• Mechanism of action

  Maprotiline is slowly but completely absorbed from the GI tract, and like the other TCAs, it is metabolized by the polymorphic CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 isoforms in the liver, primarily to pharmacologically active N-desmethylmaprotiline and to maprotiline-N-oxide.Maprotiline is distributed into breast milk at concentrations similar to those found at steady state in maternal blood. The elimination half-life of maprotiline averages 43 hours (60–90 hours for its N-desmethyl metabolite).Maprotiline shares the toxic potentials of the TCAs, and the usual precautions of TCA administration should be observed.

• Clinical Use

  Maprotiline is a secondary amine dibenzobicyclooctadiene (a tetracyclic antidepressant) that differs structurally from the TCAs by having an ethylene bridge in its central ring, resulting in a rigid bicyclomolecular skeleton .
  Maprotiline exhibits the highest affinity and selectivity for the NE transporter. Its antidepressant mechanism of action is similar to that of desipramine, with an onset of action of up to 2 to 3 weeks.

• 부작용

  Although most of the TCAs have been reported to induce seizures, it is generally recognized that maprotiline may be associated with a higher incidence of dose-dependent seizures compared with the other secondary TCAs. Maprotiline has been reported to produce sedation in depressed patients and to reduce aggressive behavior in animals. Maprotiline also shares the anticholinergic and cardiovascular effects of the secondary TCAs and may cause electrocardiographic changes, tachycardia, and postural hypotension.
