Fenfluramine is metabolized primarily in the liver by CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4/5 to yield the major active metabolite norfenfluramine and several other minor inactive metabolites.
Fenfluramine hydrochloride is metabolized to norfenfluramine by de-ethylation; this metabolite is further deaminated and oxidized to m-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid. The drug is excreted principally in the urine as m-trifluoromethylhippuric acid, a glycine conjugate of m-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid, and smaller quantities of norfenfluramine and unchanged drug. There are wide interindividual variations in rates of biotransformation and elimination of fenfluramine and its metabolites... /Fenfluramine hydrochloride/
/Fenfluramine/ is metabolized in the liver by N-dealkylation to the active metabolite norfenfluramine. Less than 15% of a therapeutic dose is excreted as parent compound or active metabolite; the remainder is nonactive benzoic acid and alcohol derivatives. ...
99% of cerebral fenfluramine was dealkylated to norfenfluramine. N-acetylnorfenfluramine & m-trifluoromethyl hippuric acid were identified as cerebral metabolites.
IDENTIFICATION: Fenfluramine hydrochloride is a centrally acting amphetamine antiobesity assent. HUMAN EXPOSURE: Main risks and target organs: Acute central nervous system stimulation, cardiotoxicity causing tachycardia, arrhythmias, hypertension and cardiovascular collapse. High risk of dependency and abuse. Summary of clinical effects: Cardiovascular: Palpitation, chest pain, tachycardia, arrhythmias and hypertension are common; cardiovascular collapse can occur in severe poisoning. Myocardial ischaemia, infarction and ventricular dysfunction are described. Central Nervous System (CNS): Stimulation of CNS, tremor, restlessness, agitation, insomnia, increased motor activity, headache, convulsions, coma and hyperreflexia are described. Stroke and cerebral vasculitis have been observed. Gastrointestinal: Vomiting, diarrhea and cramps may occur. Acute transient ischemic colitis has occurred with chronic methamphetamine abuse. Genitourinary: Increased bladder sphincter tone may cause dysuria, hesitancy and acute urinary retention. Renal failure can occur secondary to dehydration or rhabdomyolysis. Renal ischemia may be noted. Dermatologic: Skin is usually pale and diaphoretic, but mucous membranes appear dry. Endocrine: Transient hyperthyroxinemia may be noted. Metabolism: Increased metabolic and muscular activity may result in hyperventilation and hyperthermia. Weight loss is common with chronic use. Fluid/Electrolyte: Hypo- and hyperkalemia have been reported. Dehydration is common. Musculoskeletal: Fasciculations and rigidity may be noted. Rhabdomyolysis is an important consequence of severe amphetamine poisoning. Psychiatric: Agitation, confusion, mood elevation, increased wakefulness, talkativeness, irritability and panic attacks are typical. Chronic abuse can cause delusions and paranoia. A withdrawal syndrome occurs after abrupt cessation following chronic use. Contraindications: Anorexia, insomnia, psychopathic personality disorders, suicidal tendencies, Gilles de la Tourette syndrome and other disorders, hyperthyroidism, narrow angle glaucoma, diabetes mellitis and cardiovascular diseases such as angina, hypertension and arrythmias. Routes of exposure: Oral: Readily absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract and buccal mucosa. It is resistant to metabolism by monoamine oxidase. Inhalation: Amphetamine is rapidly absorbed by inhalation and is abused by this route. Parenteral: Frequent route of entry in abuse situations. Absorption by route of exposure: Amphetamine is rapidly absorbed after oral ingestion. Peak plasma levels occur within 1 to 3 hours, varying with the degree of physical activity and the amount of food in the stomach. Absorption is usually complete by 4 to 6 hours. Sustained release preparations are available as resin-bound, rather than soluble, salts. These compounds display reduced peak blood levels compared with standard amphetamine preparations, but total amount absorbed and time to peak levels remain similar. Distribution by route of exposure: Amphetamines are concentrated in the kidney, lungs, cerebrospinal fluid and brain. They are highly lipid soluble and readily cross the blood-brain barrier. Protein binding and volume of distribution varies widely, but the average volume of distribution is 5 L/kg body weight. Biological half-life by route of exposure: Under normal conditions, about 30% of amphetamine is excreted unchanged in the urine but this excretion is highly variable and is dependent on urinary pH. When the urinary pH is acidic (pH 5.5 to 6.0), elimination is predominantly by urinary excretion with approximately 60% of a dose of amphetamine being excreted unchanged by the kidney within 48 hours. When the urinary pH is alkaline (pH 7.5 to 8.0), elimination is predominantly by deamination (less than 7% excreted unchanged in the urine); the half-life ranging from 16 to 31 hours. Metabolism: The major metabolic pathway for amphetamine involves deamination by cytochrome P450 to para-hydroxyamphetamine and phenylacetone; this latter compound is subsequently oxidized to benzoic acid and excreted as glucuronide or glycine (hippuric acid) conjugate. Smaller amounts of amphetamine are converted to norephedrine by oxidation. Hydroxylation produces an active metabolite, O-hyroxynorephedrine, which acts as a false neurotransmitter and may account for some drug effect, especially in chronic users. Elimination and excretion: Normally 5 to 30% of a therapeutic dose of amphetamine is excreted unchanged in the urine by 24 hours, but the actual amount of urinary excretion and metabolism is highly pH dependent. Mode of action: Toxicodynamics: Amphetamine appears to exert most or all of its effect in the CNS by causing release of biogenic amines, especially norepinephrine and dopamine, from storage sites in nerve terminals. It may also slow down catecholamine metabolism by inhibiting monoamine oxidase. Adults: The toxic dose varies considerably due to individual variations and the development of tolerance. Children: Children appear to be more susceptible than adults and are less likely to have developed tolerance. Teratogenicity: The use of amphetamine for medical indications does not pose a significant risk to the fetus for congenital anomalies. Amphetamines generally do not appear to be human teratogens. Mild withdrawal symptoms may be observed in the newborn, but the few studies of infant follow-up have not shown long-term sequelae. Illicit maternal use or abuse of amphetamine presents a significant risk to the fetus and newborn, including intrauterine growth retardation, premature delivery and the potential for increased maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity. Cerebral injuries occurring in newborns exposed in utero appear to be directly related to the vasoconstrictive properties of amphetamines. Sixty-five children were followed whose mothers were addicted to amphetamine during pregnancy, at least during the first trimester. Intelligence, psychological function, growth, and physical health were all within the normal range at eight years, but those children exposed throughout pregnancy tended to be more aggressive. Interactions: Acetazolamide: administration may increase serum concentration of amphetamine. Alcohol: may increase serum concentration of amphetamine. Ascorbic acid: lowering urinary pH, may enhance amphetamine excretion Furazolidone: amphetamines may induce a hypertensive response in patients taking furazolidone. Guanethidine: amphetamine inhibits the antihypertensive response to guanethidine. Haloperidol: limited evidence indicates that haloperidol may inhibit the effects of amphetamine but the clinical importance of this interaction is not established. Lithium carbonate: isolated case reports indicate that lithium may inhibit the effects of amphetamine. Monoamine oxidase inhibitor: severe hypertensive reactions have followed the administration of amphetamines to patients taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Noradrenaline: amphetamine abuse may enhance the pressor response to noradrenaline. Phenothiazines: amphetamine may inhibit the antipsychotic effect of phenothiazines, and phenothiazines may inhibit the anorectic effect of amphetamines. Sodium bicarbonate: large doses of sodium bicarbonate inhibit the elimination of amphetamine, thus increasing the amphetamine effect. Tricyclic antidepressants - theoretically increases the effect of amphetamine, but clinical evidence is lacking. Clinical effects: Acute poisoning: Ingestion: Effects are most marked on the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, and muscles. The triad of hyperactivity, hyperpyrexia, and hypertension is characteristic of acute amphetamine overdosage. Agitation, confusion, headache, delirium, and hallucination, can be followed by coma, intracranial hemorrhage, stroke, and death. Chest pain, palpitation, hypertension, tachycardia, atrial and ventricular arrhythmia, and myocardial infarction can occur. Muscle contraction, bruxism (jaw-grinding), trismus (jaw clenching), fasciculation, rhabdomyolysis, are seen leading to renal failure; and flushing, sweating, and hyperpyrexia can all occur. Hyperpyrexia can cause disseminated intravascular coagulation. Inhalation: The clinical effects are similar to those after ingestion, but occur more rapidly. Parenteral exposure: Intravenous injection is a common mode of administration of amphetamine by abusers. Other clinical effects are similar to those observed after ingestion, but occur more rapidly. Ingestion: Tolerance to the euphoric effects and CNS stimulation induced by amphetamine develops rapidly, leading abusers to use larger and larger amounts to attain and sustain the desired affect. Habitual use or chronic abuse usually results in toxic psychosis classically characterised by paranoia, delusions and hallucinations, which are usually visual, tactile or olfactory in nature, in contrast to the typical auditory hallucinations of schizophrenia. The individual may act on the delusions, resulting in bizarre violent behavior, hostility and aggression, sometimes leading to suicidal or homicidal actions. Dyskinesia, compulsive behaviour and impaired performance are common in chronic abusers. The chronic abuser presents as a restless, garrulous, tremulous individual who is suspicious and anxious. Course, prognosis, cause of death: Symptoms and signs give a clinical guide to the severity of intoxication as follows: Mild toxicity: restlessness, irritability, insomnia, tremor, hyperreflexia, sweating, dilated pupils, flushing. Moderate toxicity: hyperactivity, confusion, hypertension, tachypnea, tachycardia, mild fever, sweating. Severe toxicity: delirium, mania, self-injury, marked hypertension, tachycardia, arrhythmia, hyperpyrexia, convulsion, coma, circulatory collapse. Death can be due to intracranial hemorrhage, acute heart failure or arrhythmia, hyperpyrexia, rhabdomyolysis and consequent hyperkalaemia or renal failure, and to violence related to the psychiatric effects. Systematic description of clinical effects: Cardiovascular: Cardiovascular symptoms of acute poisoning include palpitation and chest pain. Tachycardia and hypertension are common. Severe poisoning can cause acute myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction and left ventricular failure. Chronic oral amphetamine abuse can cause a chronic cardiomyopathy; an acute cardiomyopathy has also been described. Hypertensive stroke is a well-recognized complication of amphetamine poisoning. Intra-arterial injection of amphetamine can cause severe burning pain, vasospasm, and gangrene. Respiratory: Pulmonary fibrosis, right ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary hypertension are frequently found at post-mortem examination. Pulmonary function tests usually are normal except for the carbon monoxide diffusing capacity. Respiratory complications are sometimes caused by fillers or adulterants used in injections by chronic users. These can cause multiple microemboli to the lung, which can lead to restrictive lung disease. Pneumomediastinum has been reported after amphetamine inhalation. Neurological: Central nervous system (CNS): Main symptoms include agitation, confusion, delirium, hallucinations, dizziness, dyskinesia, hyperactivity, muscle fasciculation and rigidity, rigors, tics, tremors, seizures and coma. Both occlusive and hemorrhagic strokes have been reported after abuse of amphetamines. Patients with underlying arteriovenous malformations may be at particular risk. Stroke can occur after oral, intravenous, or nasal administration. Severe headache beginning within minutes of ingestion of amphetamine is usually the first symptom. In more than half the cases, hypertension which is sometimes extreme, accompanies other symptoms. A Cerebral vasculitis has also been observed. Dystonia and dyskinesia can occur, even with therapeutic dosages. Psychiatric effects, particularly euphoria and excitement, are the motives for abuse. Paranoia and a psychiatric syndrome indistinguishable from schizophrenia are sequelae of chronic use. Autonomic nervous system: Stimulation of alpha-adrenergic receptors produces mydriasis, increased metabolic rate, diaphoresis, increased sphincter tone, peripheral vasoconstriction and decreased gastrointestinal motility. Stimulation of ß-adrenergic receptors produces increased heart rate and contractility, increased automaticity and dilatation of bronchioles. Skeletal and smooth muscle: Myalgia, muscle tenderness, muscle contractions, and rhabdomyolysis, leading to fever, circulatory collapse, and myoglobinuric renal failure, can occur with amphetamines. Gastrointestinal: Most common symptoms are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps. Anorexia may be severe. Epigastric pain and hematemesis have been described after intravenous amphetamine use. A case of ischemic colitis with normal mesenteric arteriography in a patient taking dexamphetamine has been described. Hepatic: Hepatitis and fatal acute hepatic necrosis have been described. Urinary: Renal: Renal failure, secondary to dehydration or rhabdomyolysis may be observed. Other: Spontaneous rupture of the bladder has been described in a young woman who took alcohol and an amphetamine-containing diet tablet. Endocrine and reproductive systems: Transient hyperthyroxinemia may result from heavy amphetamine use. Dermatological: Skin is usually pale and diaphoretic, but mucous membranes appear dry. Chronic users may display skin lesion, abscesses, ulcers, cellulitis or necrotising angiitis due to physical insult to skin, or dermatologic signs of dietary deficiencies, cheilosis and purpura. Eye, ear, nose, throat: local effects: Mydriasis may be noted. Diffuse hair loss may be noted. Chronic users may display signs of dietary deficiencies. Hematological: Disseminated intravascular coagulation is an important consequence of severe poisoning. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura may occur. Metabolic: Fluid and electrolyte disturbance: Increase metabolic and muscular activity may result in dehydration. /Fenfluramine hydrochloride/
Headache, neck stiffness, nausea, and collapse occurred following a single 20 mgdose of fenfluramine hydrochloride in a patient taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. In addition, neurologic and circulatory reactions, including hypertensive crises, have been reported in patients who have received sympathomimetic agents concomitantly with monoamine oxidase inhibitors and fatalities have occurred. Fenfluramine is, therefore, contraindicated during or within 14 days following the administration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors. /Fenfluramine hydrochloride/

Fenfluramine should be used with caution in patients taking CNS depressant drugs since the effects may be additive.
'Fen-phen' refers to the off-label combination of the appetite suppressants fenfluramine and phentermine. The rationale for the fen-phen combination was that the two drugs exerted independent actions on brain satiety mechanisms so that it was possible to use lower doses of each drug and yet retain a common action on suppressing appetite while minimizing adverse drug effects. The focus of the present review is to consider whether fenfluramine and phentermine exert actions that are additive in nature or whether these two drugs exhibit drug-drug synergism. The fen-phen combination results in synergism for the suppression of appetite and body weight, the reduction of brain serotonin levels, pulmonary vasoconstriction and valve disease. Fen-phen synergism may reflect changes in the pharmacokinetics of drug distribution, common actions on membrane ion currents, or interactions between neuronal release and reuptake mechanisms with MAO-mediated transmitter degradation. The synergism between fenfluramine and phentermine highlights the need to more completely understand the pharmacology and neurochemistry of appetite suppressants prior to use in combination pharmacotherapy for the treatment of obesity.
... Prior treatment with diethylcarbamazine was found to potentiate the lethality of fenfluramine, while cyproheptadine pretreatment attenuated fenfluramine's toxic effects. Necropsies, conducted 24 hr after fenfluramine administration, revealed widespread alveolar and pulmonary interstitial hemorrhage in the cyproheptadine pretreated animals. The data suggest that high doses of fenfluramine directly result in pulmonary hypertension, which secondarily induces ischemic cardiac injury.
Fenfluramine has a steady-state Tmax of between four and five hours and an absolute bioavailability of approximately 68-74%. Fenfluramine administered to pediatric patients at 0.7 mg/kg/day up to 26 mg resulted in a mean Cmax of 68.0 ng/mL with a coefficient of variation of 41%; similarly the AUC0-24 was 1390 (44%) ng\*h/mL.
Over 90% of fenfluramine is excreted in urine and less than 5% in feces; unchanged fenfluramine and the major active metabolite norfenfluramine account for less than 25% of the recovered amount.
Fenfluramine has an apparent volume of distribution of 11.9 L/kg with a coefficient of variation of 16.5% following oral administration in healthy subjects.
