| Antidepressant | Fluoxetine is an antidepressant of the selective serum reabsorption inhibitor (SSRI) type.The drug takes the form of Fluoxetine hydrochloride. Its trade name is "Prozac". The drug was developed by the Eli Lilly and Company. It has been launched into market for sale since the 1990s. This drug is used for the treatment of adult depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia nervosa and the panic disorder that has or does not have the phobia of the square. It has good antidepressant effect and is widely used in clinical practice as a first-line antidepressant.The main pharmacological effect is to selectively inhibit the reuptake of 5 hydroxytryptamine (HT), which is released before the synapse of the central nervous system.It is also known as a selective 5- serotonin reuptake inhibitor. For other receptors, such as alpha adrenergic, beta adrenergic, 5- serotonin, and dopamine, fluoxetine had almost no binding force. Fluoxetine is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration.The plasma concentration is about 6~8 hours, and eating does not affect its bioavailability. About 95% are combined with plasma proteins and are widely distributed.After taking the medicine for several weeks, the steady plasma concentration will be reached.By metabolism of the liver, the active metabolite, norfluoxetine is generated by demethylation. The half-life of fluoxetine is 4-6 days, and norfluoxetine is 4-16 days.It was mainly excreted by kidney. Because it can be secreted to breast milk, it is suggested to be cautious to pregnant women and breast-feeding women. |
| Uses | Fluoxetine in its hydrochloride salt form is marketed as numerous drugs, the most popular ofwhich is Prozac. Prozac is prescribed for depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia,agoraphobia, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (premenstrual syndrome). Prozac andother fluoxetine medications belong to a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptakeinhibitors (SSRIs). When a nerve signal is sent, a neurotransmitter, such as serotonin, travelsfrom a presynaptic neuron across the synaptic gap to a postsynaptic neuron. Receptors on thepostsynaptic neuron capture the neurotransmitter, resulting in the transmission of the signal.After performing its function, the neurotransmitter is released back to the presynaptic cellin a process called reuptake. SSRIs slow down the return of serotonin to presynaptic neurons,allowing for a higher serotonin concentration on postsynaptic neurons. Because depressionand other psychological disorders are associated with low serotonin levels, Prozac and otherSSRIs help maintain serotonin levels.
Prozac was thefirst SSRI antidepressant to be marketed. Because Prozac produced lesssevere side effects than other antidepressants, it became the drug of choice for treating depressionand was made available to a wider public. Its use exploded in the 1990s, with sales peakingin 2000 when revenues from Prozac reached $2.5 billion. Eli Lilly's patent on fluoxetinehydrochloride expired in August 2001; its use continued into the 21st century but on a muchsmaller scale as generic fluoxetine hydrochloride products came on the market. Since its introductionin 1986, Prozac was the most prescribed drug for antidepressant until recent yearswhen it was replaced by Zoloft, Paxil, and Lexapro as the top three antidepressants prescribedin the United States, respectively.
Fluoxetine hydrochloride is most recognized as an antidepressant, but it is also used torelieve symptoms of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) (premenstrual syndrome).Th ese symptoms include mood swings, tension, bloating, irritability, and breast tenderness. EliLilly began marketing fl uoxetine hydrochloride as Sarafem in 2000 for treating PMDD. |
