Definitions
- the invention relates to an agent for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of depression.
- depression is usually caused by a depletion of biochemical or messenger substances or neurotransmitters such as dopamine, noradrenaline and serotonin.
- Depression is experienced subjectively by the individuals concerned as a feeling of general powerlessness, this feeling being caused consciously or unconsciously by a restriction of the subjective brain performance. If a person does not consciously perceive a restriction of their own brain performance, a general lack of drive is perceived subjectively compared to other people or also compared to their own earlier phases of life. This results in a feeling of inability to shape one's own life, whereby a life shaped by others is perceived as not meaningful and worth living.
- the triggering element of the subjective emotional basic mood of a depressed person is therefore the feeling or the recognition of a lack of controllability of the environment or one's own powerlessness and the resulting unimportance or superfluousness of one's own person.
- the reason for this, namely the restriction of one's own brain performance, is only perceived personally by some of those affected.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide an agent with which depression and the symptoms of depression can be effectively treated.
- this object is achieved by a local anesthetic from the anilide group.
- the substance mepivacaine is selected as the local anesthetic of the anilide group, preferably in a daily dose of 30 mg to 60 mg.
- the substances lidocaine, bupivacaine, butanilicaine, tholycaine or etidocaine can be used.
- an activation of the intercellular communication of the cerebral nerve cells of a depressed person is achieved quintessentially by the combination of active ingredients of a substance increasing the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain and a local anesthetic of the anilide group or its derivatives.
- Serotonin plays an important role in depression. Serotonin is the so-called happiness hormone, whereby a person feels happy with a given concentration of serotonin in the brain or at least does not feel depressed. There is an empirical relationship between the serotonin concentration and the dopamine concentration in the brain.
- Depression is particularly attributable to a malfunction of the so-called parasympatic system and / or the sympathetic system of the human brain.
- the parasympathetic system controls the body's energy-building processes such as sleep, digestion and relaxation. It leads to lower blood pressure, heart rate reduction and converts glucose into glycogen. Serotonin is predominantly the neurotransmitter in the parasympathetic system.
- the sympathetic system is used to control energy-consuming processes such as heart activation, increased blood pressure and blood sugar mobilization.
- the neurotransmitter in the sympathetic system is predominantly norepinephrine.
- Adequate provision of a concentration of dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin in the brain required for normal brain function can be treated according to the invention by targeted administration of a local anesthetic from the anilide group.
- a local anesthetic from the anilide group.
- the permeability of the blood / brain barrier is increased in such a way that L-dopa can increasingly pass through this barrier and get into the brain.
- L-dopa is a substance that is converted to dopamine in the substantia nigra, another area of the brain.
- dopamine is a precursor to the formation of serotonin and norepinephrine.
- the agent according to the invention causes an increase in the transmission potential of the connections of nerve cells, in particular those of the brain.
- the combination of a substance that increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain with a local anesthetic from the anilide group causes the permeability of the blood-brain barrier for the substance LevoDopa to be increased, so that dopamine is accumulative in higher concentrations than with current standard therapy in the brain of patients suffering from depression people, which consequently a higher concentration of dopamine in the brain • these persons is reached.
- the substance "local anesthetic of the anilide group" for Parkinson's therapy which is essential to the invention, generally belongs to the local anesthetics of different structure, the local anesthetics of the anilide group and their derivatives being preferred for therapy as a subgroup of these local anesthetics.
- examples of this subgroup are Ropivacaine.
- the smallest molecule in this group has mepivacaine, and this substance has also been shown to be most effective in the treatment of Parkinson's disease patients.
- Mepivacaine is also lipophilic, meaning fat-loving and likes to attach to fat molecules.
- nerve cells are mostly embedded in fat and that the addition or accumulation of mepivacaine in fat is likely to have an impact on the nerve pathways through the fatty tissue.
- LevoDopa like Mepivacaine, also has a strong lipophilicity, so that a possible mechanism of action is also given in this connection.
- In. LevoDopa is preferably applied to the agent according to the invention for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of depression in a daily dose of 200 mg to 600 mg.
- the substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain additionally contains bromocriptine, which is preferably applied in a daily dose of 1.25 mg to 10 mg.
- the substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain additionally contains selegiline, which is preferably administered in a daily dose of 4 mg to 20 mg.
- the substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain additionally contains amantadine, which is preferably applied in a daily dose of 100 mg to 400 mg.
- the substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the nerve cells of the brain additionally contains pergolide mesilate, which is preferably applied in a daily dose of 2 mg to 8 mg.
- the agent according to the invention can also contain tolcapone as a substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic cleft of the nerve cells of the brain and is applied in a daily dose of 100 mg to 400 mg.
- the substance which increases the dopamine concentration in the synaptic cleft of the nerve cells of the brain could additionally contain piracetam, which is administered in a daily dose of 1,000 mg to 4,000 mg.
- the effect of the agent according to the invention is less based on a special combination of increasing the dopamine concentration in the synaptic gap of the brain nerve cells
- the indicated doses of local anesthetics are related to injection applications. In the case of oral administration, the dosage must be adjusted accordingly.
