{Abstract}: UNASSIGNED: Olanzapine has already been used to treat schizophrenia patients; however, the initial dosage recommendation when multiple drugs are used in combination, remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the drug-drug interaction (DDI) of multiple drugs combined with olanzapine and to recommend the optimal administration of olanzapine in schizophrenia patients.
UNASSIGNED: In this study, we obtained olanzapine concentrations from therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) database. In addition, related medical information, such as physiological, biochemical indexes, and concomitant drugs was acquired using medical log. Sixty-five schizophrenia patients were enrollmented for analysis using population pharmacokinetic model by means of nonlinear mixed effect (NONMEM).
UNASSIGNED: Weight and combined use of aripiprazole significantly affected olanzapine clearance. Without aripiprazole, for once-daily olanzapine administration dosages, 0.6, 0.5 mg/kg/day were recommended for 40-70, and 70-100 kg schizophrenia patients, respectively; for twice-daily olanzapine administration dosages, 0.6, 0.5 mg/kg/day were recommended for 40-60, and 60-100 kg schizophrenia patients, respectively. With aripiprazole, for once-daily olanzapine administration dosages, 0.4, 0.3 mg/kg/day were recommended for 40-53, and 53-100 kg schizophrenia patients, respectively; for twice-daily olanzapine administration dosages, 0.4 mg/kg/day was recommended for 40-100 kg schizophrenia patients, respectively.
UNASSIGNED: Aripiprazole significantly affected olanzapine clearance, and when schizophrenia patients use aripiprazole, the olanzapine dosages need adjust. Meanwhile, we firstly recommended the optimal initial dosages of olanzapine in schizophrenia patients.
