HYPER LIPIDEMIA
INEGY
OBJECTIVES• Trade and generic names• Mechanism of action• Clinical use• Side effects• Drug interactions• Life style
Therapeutic class :Lipid-Lowering Agents
Pharmacological class :HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors
INEGY
• Trade name :
Inegy
• generic name:
Simvastatin & Ezetimibe
Uses of Inegy:
The main effects that produce from this drug are:• lower levels of total cholesterol,
(LDL cholesterol) and triglycerides in the blood.
• Raises levels of (HDL cholesterol).
• Hypercholesterolaemia
So. It can use if patient has:• Homozygous Familial
Hypercholesterolaemia (HoFH)
• patients not appropriately controlled with a statin alone
• patients treated with a statin and ezetimibe
M.O.A
• Side effectHeadache.FatigueConstipationAbdominal painIndigestionDiarrheaNausea ,vomiting.Hot flushes.Myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis. Myoglobinuria and acute renal failure .Photosensitivity, purpura, and alopecia.
• Drug - drug interaction
Mainly for Simvastatin Warfarin AspirinNiacin Fibrate ErythromycinVerapamil
Drug interaction classification
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate
Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Simvastatin ↔ Warfarin
It acts by affecting hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism that lead to:• Reversible Rhabdomyolysis .• Acute renal failure
Simvastatin&ezetimibe
↔ cholestyramine• cholestyramine decreases levels of ezetimibe and simvastatin by inhibition of GI absorption.
Simvastatin ↔ NiacinEither increases toxcity of
the other by pharmacodynamic synergism that increase risk of : • (Rhabdomyolysis ) for
Both
simvastatin ↔ fibrateE.g. Gemfibrozil.
Either increases effects of the other by pharmacodynamic synergism lead to :• Liver damaged .• Severe myopathy and
Rhabdomyolysis – renal failure secondary to
Myoglobinuria and may result in death.
• increased risk of musculoskeletal toxicity.
simvastatin ↔ verapamilSimvastatin ↔ erythromycin
• Verapamil
• hypertension
• angina pectoris
• cardiac arrhythmia
• erythromycin
• Anti-biotic– infecti
ons
simvastatin ↔ verapamil
Simvastatin ↔ erythromycinThey will increase the level or effect of
simvastatin by affecting hepatic/intestinal enzyme CYP3A4 metabolism that lead to :• myopathy and Rhabdomyolysis – renal failure secondary to
Myoglobinuria and may result in death.
• increased risk of musculoskeletal toxicity.
simvastatin level
• Bosentan
– (pulmonary artery hypertension)• Carbamazepine
– (seizure disorders and neuropathic pain.)
• Efavirenz
– (human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. )
• Rifampicin
– (tuberculosis )
