| Körperbelastung | Amitriptyline and its active metabolite, nortriptyline, are distributed into milk. Amitriptyline and nortriptyline concentrations in milk appear to be similar to or slightly greater than those present in maternal serum. It is estimated that a nursing infant would ingest less than 1% of the daily maternal dose of amitriptyline ... .Amitriptyline is extensively excreted in sweat (0.78-0.2 mg/L) after cases of severe poisoning(1).2% Amitriptyline is excreted unchanged(1). |
| Treatment | Consider gastric lavage only if within one hour of a potentially fatal overdose. Give 50 grams of charcoal if within one hour of ingestion. Prolonged resuscitation may be successful in case of cardiac arrest. Give sodium bicarbonate in case of arrhythmias. (A311) |
| Wechselwirkungen | The teratogenic potential of a combination of chlordiazepoxide (Cdz) and amitriptyline (Amt) was examined with regard to both internal and external anomalies. Timed pregnant golden hamsters were given a single intraperitoneal injection on day 8 of gestation of one of the following: chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride (28.5 mg/kg), amitriptyline hydrochloride (70.3 mg/kg), Cdz-Amt combination (28.5 mg/kg Cdz + 70.3 mg/kg Amt, in order to retain the 1:2.5 dose ratio utilized in a clinically-used preparation of these agents), or saline vehicle (control). Fetuses were recovered on gestation day 15 following maternal sacrifice. Cranial malformations were analyzed in Bouin's-fixed fetuses by making 1-mm coronal sections through each head, whereas visceral anomalies were examined following general dissection of each body. Amt alone produced a significant (P less than 0.05) incidence of bent tail and encephalocele, whereas Cdz significantly (P less than 0.05) altered the male:female ratio of surviving fetuses when compared with saline-injected controls. The Cdz-Amt combination caused significant increases in cranial malformations, open eye, bent tail, abnormal lung, and urogenital anomalies. The teratogenic effects of potentiation between the components of this combination are discussed in terms of external and internal malformations.Caution is advised if patients receive large doses of ethchlorvynol concurrently. Transient delirium has been reported in patients who were treated with one gram of ethchlorvynol and 75 to 150 mg of amitriptyline hydrochloride.The biochemical activity of the drug metabolizing isozyme cytochrome P450 2D6 (debrisoquin hydroxylase) is reduced in a subset of the caucasian population (about 7 to 10% of Caucasians are so called "poor metabolizers")reliable estimates of the prevalence of reduced P450 2D6 isozyme activity among Asian, African and other populations are not yet available. Poor metabolizers have higher than expected plasma concentrations of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) when given usual doses. Depending on the fraction of drug metabolized by P450 2D6, the increase in plasma concentration may be small, or quite large (8 fold increase in plasma AUC of the TCA). In addition, certain drugs inhibit the activity of this isozyme and make normal metabolizers resemble poor metabolizers. An individual who is stable on a given dose of TCA may become abruptly toxic when given one of these inhibiting drugs as concomitant therapy. The drugs that inhibit cytochrome P450 2D6 include some that are not metabolized by the enzyme (quinidinecimetidine) and many that are substrates for P450 2D6 (many other antidepressants, phenothiazines, and the Type 1C antiarrhythmics propafenone and flecainide). While all the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), e.g., fluoxetine, sertraline, and paroxetine, inhibit P450 2D6, they may vary in the extent of inhibition. The extent to which SSRI-TCA interactions may pose clinical problems will depend on the degree of inhibition and the pharmacokinetics of the SSRI involved. Nevertheless, caution is indicated in the coadministration of TCAs with any of the SSRIs and also in switching from one class to the other. Of particular importance, sufficient time must elapse before initiating TCA treatment in a patient being withdrawn from fluoxetine, given the long half-life of the parent and active metabolite (at least 5 weeks may be necessary). Concomitant use of tricyclic antidepressants with drugs that can inhibit cytochrome P450 2D6 may require lower doses than usually prescribed for either the tricyclic antidepressant or the other drug. Furthermore, whenever one of these other drugs is withdrawn from co-therapy, an increased dose of tricyclic antidepressant may be required. It is desirable to monitor TCA plasma levels whenever a TCA is going to be coadministered with another drug known to be an inhibitor of P450 2D6. /Tricyclic antidepressants/The combination (ethanol and amitriptyline) produced greater impairment of 3 psychomotor functions in animals than did either drug alone. Ethanol pretreatment also produced A 2.23% increase in the total tricyclic antidepressant brain concentration.For more Interactions (Complete) data for AMITRIPTYLINE (33 total), please visit the HSDB record page. |
| Gesundheitliche Auswirkungen | Some rare side effects include tinnitus, hypotension, mania, psychosis, heart block, arrhythmias, lip and mouth ulcers, extrapyramidal symptoms, depression, and hepatic toxicity.Amitriptyline exhibits strong anticholinergic activity, cardiovascular effects including orthostatic hypotension, changes in heart rhythm and conduction, and a lowering of the seizure threshold (A308, L1032). |
| Hepatotoxicity | Liver test abnormalities have been reported to occur in 10% to 12% of patients on amitriptyline, but elevations are uncommonly above 3 times the upper limit of normal. The aminotransferase abnormalities are usually mild, asymptomatic and transient, reversing even with continuation of medication. Rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury have been reported in patients on amitriptyline. The latency to onset is quite variable, ranging from 1 to 14 months of starting the medication. The reported pattern of serum enzyme elevations has varied from hepatocellular to cholestatic. An acute hepatitis-like syndrome with acute liver failure has been reported, as well as acute cholestatic hepatitis and prolonged jaundice compatible with vanishing bile duct syndrome. Signs or symptoms of hypersensitivity (rash, fever and eosinophilia) are frequent, but are usually mild and transient. Autoantibody formation is rare. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a measured Koc value of 3530(2) indicates that amitriptyline is expected to have slight mobility in soil(SRC). The estimated pKa of amitriptyline is 9.76(3), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). Volatilization from moist soil is not expected because the compound exists as an cation and cations do not volatilize. Amitriptyline is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 3.6X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(5). Utilizing the various loam soils, half-lives of 34-85 days were observed with the formation of degradation products over 80 days(6) indicating that biodegradation is an environmental fate process in soil, with rate dependent on conditions(SRC).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a meaured Koc value of 3530(2) indicates that amitriptyline is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). An estimated pKa of 9.76(3) indicates amitriptyline will exist almost entirely in the cation form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). According to a classification scheme(4), an estimated BCF of 820(SRC), from its log Kow of 4.92(5) and a regression-derived equation(6), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). Utilizing the various loam soils, half-lives of 34-85 days were observed with the formation of degradation products over 80 days(6) indicating that biodegradation is an environmental fate process in water, with rate dependent on conditions(SRC).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), amitriptyline, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 3.6X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase amitriptyline is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 0.72 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.8X10-10 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). Particulate-phase amitriptyline may be removed from the air by wet and dry deposition(SRC). Amitriptyline contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). |
| Unerwünschte Wirkungen | The most commonly encountered side effects of amitriptyline include weight gain and gastrointestinal symptoms like constipation, xerostomia, dizziness, headache, and somnolence. |
| Expositionspfade | Oral (A308) Rapidly and well absorbed following oral administration (bioavailability is 30-60% due to first pass metabolism). Peak plasma concentrations occur 2-12 hours following oral or intramuscular administration. |
| Milk Concentrations | Amitriptyline and its active metabolite, nortriptyline, are distributed into milk. Amitriptyline and nortriptyline concentrations in milk appear to be similar to or slightly greater than those present in maternal serum. It is estimated that a nursing infant would ingest less than 1% of the daily maternal dose of amitriptyline ... . |
| Toxizitätsübersicht | IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Amitriptyline is in the form of crystals. It is a tricyclic antidepressant. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Symptoms of overdose/poisoning may include the following: hypothermia, respiratory depression, seizures, abnormal tendon reflexes, disorientation, agitation, myoclonic jerks, coma, pyramidal signs, arrhythmias, bundle branch block, cardiac arrest, hypotension, circulatory collapse, mydriasis, blurred vision, tachycardia, vasodilation, urinary retention, decreased gastrointestinal motility, decreased bronchial secretions, and dry mucous membranes and skin. A study on children showed that initial symptoms and signs of acute amitriptyline intoxication appeared severe, but they disappeared with only supportive care required in most children except for cases that ingested high doses of drug within a few days. However, antidepressants have been shown to increase the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior (suicidality) in children, adolescents, and young adults in short-term studies of major depressive disorder (MDD) and other psychiatric disorders. An experiment with amitriptyline demonstrated that antidepressants reduce the release of non-neuronal acetylcholine in the human placenta, but only at concentrations roughly 30-fold above the therapeutic range. Antidepressant therapy of pregnant women should still be done with caution. Amitriptyline HCl was evaluated for its genotoxicity. The evaluation was performed in somatic (bone marrow) and germ (spermatocytes) cells, as well as the sperm morphology (i.e., head and tail) and count of the resulting sperm. The results showed that the treatment induced structural and numerical chromosome abnormalities in somatic cells (bone marrow) and germ cells (spermatocytes). Moreover, the drug significantly reduced both the mitotic index and meiotic activity after the different treatments used. Amitriptyline was found to increase significantly the incidence of sperm-cell head and tail abnormalities. The sperm-cell count was also significantly decreased. These results showed that the effect of the drug was dose dependent. In another study, amitriptyline was found to be nongenotoxic at plasma levels. However, frequencies of chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges were significantly increased at concentrations 4 and 40 times the plasma level. ANIMAL STUDIES: Symptoms of exposure in dogs include lethargy, tachycardia, vomiting, and hyperthermia. Symptoms in cats have included mydriasis and/or tachycardia, ataxia, lethargy, disorientation, and vomiting. In mice, amitriptyline produces rapid but reversible clouding of the lens, if the eyes are allowed to remain open and unprotected from evaporation. In a study on dogs, oral doses of 20 and 40 mg/kg/day were tolerated for 6 months without hematologic, biochemical or anatomical evidence of drug toxicity. Oral doses of 80 mg/kg/day were not well tolerated: 2 of 4 dogs died within 3 weeks after exhibiting severe ataxia and sedation. Doses of 100 mg/kg/day or greater were not tolerated for more than a few days. Offspring of amitriptyline-treated rats showed reduced locomotor activity. In rats, an oral dose of 25 mg/kg/day (8 times the maximum recommended human dose) produced delays in ossification of fetal vertebral bodies. In rabbits, an oral dose of 60 mg/kg/day (20 times the maximum recommended human dose) was reported to cause incomplete ossification of cranial bones. Amitriptyline was tested for genotoxicity using the somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) in wing cells of Drosophila melanogaster. The drug was not genotoxic at concentrations up to 100 mM.Amitriptyline toxicity is measurable by a dose of over 5 mg/kg. The clinical symptoms of amitriptyline toxicity include neurological, cardiac, and anticholinergic adverse reactions. Neurological symptoms include sedation, seizure, and coma. Cardiac symptoms include tachycardia, hypotension, conduction abnormalities, and QTc prolongation. Anticholinergic symptoms include dilated pupils, dry mouth, decreased (or absent) bowel sounds, and urinary retention.Amitriptyline is metabolized to nortriptyline which inhibits the reuptake of norepinephrine and serotonin almost equally. Amitriptyline inhibits the membrane pump mechanism responsible for uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin in adrenergic and serotonergic neurons. Pharmacologically this action may potentiate or prolong neuronal activity since reuptake of these biogenic amines is important physiologically in terminating transmitting activity. This interference with the reuptake of norepinephrine and/or serotonin is believed by some to underlie the antidepressant activity of amitriptyline. |
| Signs and Symptoms | Symptoms of overdose include abnormally low blood pressure, confusion, convulsions, dilated pupils and other eye problems, disturbed concentration, drowsiness, hallucinations, impaired heart function, rapid or irregular heartbeat, reduced body temperature, stupor, and unresponsiveness or coma. Side effects include: sedation, hypotension, blurred vision, dry mouth, constipation, urinary retention, postural hypotension, tachycardia, hypertension, ECG changes, heart failure, impaired memory and delirium, and precipitation of hypomanic or manic episodes in bipolar depression. Withdrawal symptoms include gastrointestinal disturbances, anxiety, and insomnia. |
