Clinical pharmacology of valpromide
Valpromide has been used as an antiepileptic and antipsychotic drug for the past 25 years in several European countries. Unlike its corresponding acid, valproic acid, whose pharmacokinetics have been quite extensively reviewed, and despite years of clinical use, it appears that no reviews have been written on the pharmacokinetics of valpromide. This article summarises and analyses its pharmacokinetics from various aspects, with a special emphasis on the differences between valpromide and valproic acid. In humans, valpromide is a prodrug of valproic acid. Despite their chemical similarity, the pharmacokinetics of the 2 drugs in humans are quite distinct. Compared with valproic acid. valpromide has a very short half-life (mean +/- SD: 0.84 +/- 0.33h; n = 6), a high clearance value (70 +/- 31 L/h) and a large volume of distribution (75 +/- 13L). Despite its rapid biotransformation to valproic acid, valpromide has some special characteristics, such as its inhibition of the enzyme epoxide hydrolase which is responsible for the metabolism of carbamazepine-10, 11-epoxide. This review discusses the pharmacokinetics of valpromide, the interactions between it and other drugs such as carbamazepine and amitriptyline, and its antiepileptic and antipsychotic activities.
Valproate, divalproex, valpromide: Are the differences in indications justified?
In many countries, valproate is indicated for epilepsy only, whereas its derivative divalproex (DVP) and valpromide (VPM) are indicated for bipolar disorders only. DVP is composed of sodium valproate and valproic acid (VA) in a 1:1 molar ratio and VPM is a prodrug completely hydrolyzed in the gastric tract to VA. Whatever the drug, the absorbed and active substance is the valproate ion. In this article, we reviewed the potential reasons that might justify these different indications. We performed a literature review of comparative studies of efficacy, pharmacokinetic parameters, side effects and costs for VPA, DVP, and VPM. We found only studies comparing VA with DVP. None of the eight efficacy studies found differences in epilepsy or mood disorders. The ten studies of side effects reported a difference in terms of gastrointestinal effects, but inconsistently. The United States (US) summary of product characteristics and kinetic comparison studies reported bioequivalence between DVP and VA, but a longer Tmax for DVP, likely due to its gastro-resistant galenic form. VPM summary of product characteristics and pharmacokinetic studies revealed a lower bioavailability (80% vs. 100% for VA) and a delayed Tmax. There is an additional cost for using DVP or VPM as compared to VA (respectively +177% and +77% in France). The differences in indications between valproate derivatives do not seem justified. Interchangeability between VA and DVP in bipolar disorders seems possible, at identical dosage. VPM would require a closer dosing schedule and a 20% reduction in dosage when switching to valproate.
[Lower limb edema during valpromide treatment: case report and literature review]
Introduction: Valpromide and sodium divalproate are indicated in the treatment of maniac episodes of bipolar disorder. These drugs are metabolized into valproic acid. The occurrence of peripheral edema has been described as a very rare adverse reaction of those drugs.
Case report: We report the case of a patient treated with valpromide who presented edema of the lower limbs. The increase in furosemide dose allowed regression of edema, and valpromide discontinuation resulted in rapid normalization. Recurrence of mood disorders led to the reintroduction of valpromide, which was associated with recurrence of edema. The definitive withdrawal of valpromide resulted in resolution of edema.
Conclusion: Edema of the lower limbs can be induced by valproate. The mechanism of this reaction is unknown. These edema appear to be reversible upon discontinuation of the drug. Clinicians should be aware of a possible relationship between valproate-derived drugs and peripheral edema.
Valpromide inhibits human epoxide hydrolase
The effect of antipileptic drug valpromide (VPM) on the activity of epoxide hydrolase was studied in human adult and foetal liver, kidneys, lungs, intestine and in placenta. The activity of the epoxide hydrolase was measured with both styrene oxide and benzo(a)pyrene-4,5-oxide as substrates. VPM inhibited the epoxide hydrolase obtained from all organs studied. The degree of inhibition was independent of the substrate used. A lowering of the epoxide hydrolase activity by 50% was observed when the concentration of VPM was similar to that of the substrates. VPM competitively inhibited the activity of adult liver epoxide hydrolase with styrene oxide as substrate.
