Definitions
- compositions of pharmaceutical compounds having hepatotoxicity in which compositions the hepatotoxicity is mitigated. More particularly, this invention relates to compositions of hepatotoxic compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, statin drugs, niacin, divalproex sodium, valproic acid or fluconazole, each of which is known to have hepatotoxic properties, in which compositions the hepatotoxicity of the compound is mitigated.
- hepatotoxic compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, statin drugs, niacin, divalproex sodium, valproic acid or fluconazole, each of which is known to have hepatotoxic properties, in which compositions the hepatotoxicity of the compound is mitigated.
- Acetaminophen is the active metabolite of phenacetin, a drug whose use extends back to the 1880's. Although acetaminophen was first used as an analgesic and antipyretic in 1893, it did not achieve widespread use until after 1949. For many years, acetaminophen was used as a second-line choice to aspirin as an analgesic/antipyretic, but the elucidation of the relationship between aspirin use and Reye's Syndrome and the recognition of aspirin's propensity to produce gastrointestinal bleeding vaulted acetaminophen into its current day position as the analgesic/antipyretic of first choice in both children and adults.
- acetaminophen While acetaminophen is usually well tolerated, its use can be accompanied by a very serious adverse effect—potentially fatal hepatic necrosis. Hepatic necrosis with acetaminophen is largely confined to two groups of patients: 1. Patients who ingest acute overdoses or who chronically utilize high dosage regimens of acetaminophen. 2. Ingestion of acetaminophen by alcoholics or in combination with alcohol ingestion. It has been reported that more than 26,000 patients per year are hospitalized in the U.S. for acetaminophen induced hepatic necroses, and of these, more than 400 die each year.
- Methotrexate an inhibitor of cell metabolism, has been utilized for several decades as a therapeutic agent widely used in several different diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. While methotrexate administration is associated with various other side effects, severe and sometimes fatal liver toxicity is a significant limiting factor in its therapeutic usefulness. Atorvastatin, simvastatin and other cholesterol reducing agents of the “statin” family are the most widely used pharmaceuticals in the world. In spite of their widespread use, liver toxicity is a significant problem, and patients with a history of old or active hepatitis must avoid these drugs even if they could benefit from their cholesterol lowering actions.
- Niacin also known as nicotinic acid or vitamin B 3
- Fluconazole a potent antifungal agent
- divalproex sodium and valproic acid widely used antiepileptics are three other agents whose clinical use is limited by their hepatotoxicity.
- nicotinamide also known as niacinamide
- methionine an essential amino acid which is a DL racemic mixture of D & L methionine
- nicotinamide and methionine can be administered in combination with hepatotoxic pharmaceutical compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, a “statin” cholesterol lowering agent, fluconazole, divalproex sodium or valproic acid, in substantially lower doses than disclosed in the prior art, and when administered as such, can provide a substantive protective effect against the hepatotoxicity of these agents without negatively affecting their beneficial therapeutic activity.
- hepatotoxic pharmaceutical compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, a “statin” cholesterol lowering agent, fluconazole, divalproex sodium or valproic acid
- hepatotoxic pharmaceutical compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, atorvastatin, simvastatin, niacin, fluconazole, divalproex sodium, valproic acid, and related drugs
- compositions of hepatotoxic therapeutic drugs such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, the “statins,” niacin, fluconazole, divalproex sodium, valproic acid, and related drugs, which compositions provide the therapeutic benefits of the active drug with markedly reduced potential for serious hepatotoxicity.
- compositions in which the hepatotoxic properties are mitigated.
- the compositions can include a standard dose of the hepatotoxic compound, together with relatively low dosages of nicotinamide and methionine. Low dosages of folic acid also can be added to the compositions to further mitigate the hepatotoxic properties.
- Specific embodiments of the invention can be in the form of formulations of acetaminophen together with mixtures of low dosages of nicotinamide and methionine, or together with low dosages of nicotinamide, methionine and folic acid; or formulations of methotrexate together with mixtures of low dosages of nicotinamide and methionine, or together with low dosages of nicotinamide, methionine and folic acid.
- These formulations are incorporated into pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles for use in humans and animals.
- formulations of atorvastatin, simvastatin, niacin, fluconazole, divalproex sodium or valproic acid each can be formulated into pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles for use in humans and animals together with mixtures of low dosages of nicotinamide and methionine, or together with low dosages of nicotinamide, methionine and folic acid.
- Such formulations include those suitable for oral administration such as capsules, tablets, caplets, or liquid solutions or suspensions, as well as sterile solutions or suspensions suitable for intradermal, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous or intrathecal injection.
- acetaminophen 80 mg-1000 mg per single dose form, e.g. single capsule, single tablet, etc.
- methotrexate 2.5 mg-250 mg per single dose form
- atorvastatin or simvastatin 5 mg-100 mg per single dose form
- niacin 250 mg-1000 mg per single dose form
- fluconazole 10 mg-250 mg per single dose form
- divalproex sodium 100 mg-750 mg per single dose form
- valproic acid 25 mg-500 mg per single dose form
- methionine may be present in the amount of about 5 mg to about 500 mg per single dose form, and preferably about 10 mg to 100 mg per single dose form
- nicotinamide may be present in the amount of about 10 mg to 500 mg per single dose form, and preferably about 25 mg to about 200 mg per single dose form.
- Suitable pharmaceutical vehicles for the combinations of hepatotoxic compounds such as acetaminophen, methotrexate, atorvastatin, simvastatin, niacin, fluconazole, divalproex sodium or valproic acid, with hepatotoxicity mitigators methionine, nicotinamide and folic acid, and methods of preparing such formulations as are within the scope of the invention, will be readily apparent to and understood by those skilled in the art.
- compositions of the instant invention will be more readily comprehended from the following examples:
- Two tablets comprised of 500 mg acetaminophen, 50 mg methionine, and 25 mg nicotinamide, are administered to patients with painful osteoarthritis four times daily for 12 weeks producing substantial relief of joint pain without evidence of any hepatotoxicity.
- Capsules are prepared each containing by weight 325 mg acetaminophen, 50 mg methionine, 50 mg nicotinamide, and 500 mcg folic acid.
- One to two of such capsules are administered to patients with osteoarthritis or fibromyalgia pain four to six times daily for 6 months for relief of joint or soft tissue pain without evidence of damage to the patients' livers.
- Two caplets each containing 500 mg acetaminophen, 200 mg methionine, and 100 mg nicotinamide are administered four times daily for twelve (12) weeks to patients with osteoarthritis for relief of osteoarthritis pain without evidence of liver damage.
- Tablets are prepared each containing 2.5 mg methotrexate, 100 mg methionine, 100 mg nicotinamide and 100 mcg folic acid. Two of such tablets are administered to patients with psoriasis of the skin twice daily for 6 months. Such patients demonstrate improvement in their psoriatic lesions without evidence of serious methotrexate-induced liver damage.
- Tablets containing 250 mg divalproex sodium, 250 mg methionine and 100 mg nicotinamide by weight are administered twice daily to patients with migraine headaches to prevent or diminish the severity of migraine headaches without evidence of serious liver damage.
- Capsules are prepared each containing by weight 10 mg atorvastatin, 500 mg methionine, 100 mg nicotinamide, and 1.0 mg folic acid and administered to patients once daily. Such patients have lower serum cholesterol and triglycerides without vidence of significant alteration in their liver functions.
- An oral suspension containing 10 mg/ml fluconazole, 25 mg/ml methionine and 20 mg/ml nicotinamide is administered to children for treatment of oropharyngeal candidiasis at a dosage of 2-12 mg/kg per day for 3 weeks with a substantially lessened risk of liver toxicity than with standard fluconazole suspensions.
