4.1 Therapeutic Uses

Central Nervous System Stimulants

National Library of Medicine's Medical Subject Headings online file (MeSH, 1999)


The Agency has concluded that the overall risk of liver toxicity from Cylert and generic pemoline products outweighs the benefits of this drug. In May 2005, Abbott chose to stop sales and marketing of Cylert in the U.S. All generic companies have also agreed to stop sales and marketing of this product (Pemoline tablets and chewable tablets). Cylert is a central nervous system stimulant indicated for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This product is considered second line therapy for ADHD because of its association with life threatening hepatic failure.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Alert for Healthcare Professionals, Pemoline Tablets and Chewable Tablets (marketed as Cylert) (October 2005). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/drug/InfoSheets/HCP/pemolineHCP.htm


Adjunct to psychological, educational, social, and other remedial measures in the treatment of attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity (hyperkinetic syndrome of childhood, minimal brain dysfunction) in carefully selected children older than 6 years of age. /Use is included in the labeling approved by the US Food and Drug Administration/.

In May 2005, Abbott chose to stop sales and marketing of Cylert in the U.S. All generic companies have also agreed to stop sales and marketing of this product (Pemoline tablets and chewable tablets).

Because of its association with life threatening hepatic failure, Cylert should not ordinarily be considered as first line drug therapy for ADHD. Because Cylert provides an observable symptomatic benefit, patients who fail to show substantial clinical benefit within 3 weeks of completing dose titration, should be withdrawn from Cylert therapy.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Label Information for Cylert (Pemoline) (Last updated December 2002). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2003/016832s022_017703s018lbl.pdf


Treatment with Cylert should be initiated only in individuals without liver disease and with normal baseline liver function tests. It is not clear if baseline and periodic liver function testing are predictive of these instances of acute liver failure; however, it is generally believed that early detection of drug induced hepatic injury along with immediate withdrawal of the suspect drug enhances the likelihood for recovery. Accordingly, the following liver monitoring program is recommended: Serum ALT (SGPT) levels should be determined at baseline, and every two weeks thereafter. If Cylert therapy is discontinued and then restarted, liver function test monitoring should be done at baseline and reinitiated at the frequency above. Cylert should be discontinued if serum ALT (SGPT) is increased to a clinically significant level, or any increase > or = 2 times the upper limit of normal, or if clinical signs and symptoms suggest liver failure

Clinical experience suggests that in psychotic children, administration of Cylert may exacerbate symptoms of behavior disturbance and thought disorder.

4.3 Drug Indication

For treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)


FDA Label


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Pemoline belongs to the group of medicines called central nervous system (CNS) stimulants. It is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Pemoline stimulates the brain, probably by affecting neurotransmitters, the chemicals in the brain that nerves use to communicate with each other.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Central Nervous System Stimulants

A loosely defined group of drugs that tend to increase behavioral alertness, agitation, or excitation. They work by a variety of mechanisms, but usually not by direct excitation of neurons. The many drugs that have such actions as side effects to their main therapeutic use are not included here. (See all compounds classified as Central Nervous System Stimulants.)


5.3 ATC Code

N - Nervous system

N06 - Psychoanaleptics

N06B - Psychostimulants, agents used for adhd and nootropics

N06BA - Centrally acting sympathomimetics

N06BA05 - Pemoline


5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Pemoline is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract


Route of Elimination

Pemoline is excreted primarily by the kidneys with approximately 50% excreted unchanged and only minor fractions present as metabolites.


Pemoline is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Approximately 50% is bound to plasma proteins. The serum half-life of pemoline is approximately 12 hours. Peak serum levels of the drug occur within 2 to 4 hours after ingestion of a single dose. Multiple dose studies in adults at several dose levels indicate that steady state is reached in approximately 2 to 3 days. In animals given radiolabeled pemoline, the drug was widely and uniformly distributed throughout the tissues, including the brain.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Label Information for Cylert (Pemoline) (Last updated December 2002). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2003/016832s022_017703s018lbl.pdf


... Pemoline and its metabolites are excreted primarily in urine; only negligible amounts are excreted in feces. About 75% of an oral dose is excreted in urine within 24 hr; about 43% is excreted unchanged and about 22% is excreted as pemoline conjugates.

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 92. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1992 (Plus Supplements 1992)., p. 1309


Pemoline is absorbed from the GI tract, and peak serum concentrations are achieved within 2-4 hours. Multiple-dose studies in adults indicate that serum concentrations plateau in about 3 days. In a study involving adults, the CNS stimulant effect of a single oral dose of pemoline was relatively long, reaching its peak within 4 hr and lasting at least 8 hr. However, when pemoline is administered to children in the treatment of attention deficit disorder, the drug has a gradual onset of action and therapeutic effects may not be apparent until 2 or 3 weeks of therapy.

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 92. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1992 (Plus Supplements 1992)., p. 1308


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Hepatic


Pemoline is metabolized by the liver. Metabolites of pemoline include pemoline conjugate, pemoline dione, mandelic acid, and unidentified polar compounds. Cylert is excreted primarily by the kidneys with approximately 50% excreted unchanged and only minor fractions present as metabolites.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Label Information for Cylert (Pemoline) (Last updated December 2002). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2003/016832s022_017703s018lbl.pdf


5.6 Biological Half-Life

The serum half-life of pemoline is approximately 12 hours.


The serum half-life of pemoline is approximately 12 hours.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Label Information for Cylert (Pemoline) (Last updated December 2002). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2003/016832s022_017703s018lbl.pdf


Following a single oral dose in healthy adults, the plasma or serum half-life of pemoline has ranged from about 9-14 hr. Following a single oral dose in children, the plasma elimination half-life exhibits considerable interindividual variation, ranging from about 2-12 hr (mean: 8.6 hr). Preliminary evidence suggests that the drug may exhibit nonlinar kinetics in children following multiple dosing, with the elimination half-life increasing substantially. ...

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 92. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1992 (Plus Supplements 1992)., p. 1309


5.7 Mechanism of Action

The pharmacologic actions of pemoline are qualitatively similar to those of the amphetamines and methylphenidate, and include CNS and respiratory stimulation and weak sympathomimetic activity. ... Limited animal experiments suggest that the CNS stimulatory action of pemoline may be mediated by brain dopamine. Pemoline may produce an increase in motor activity, mental alertness, diminished sense of fatigue, and mild euphoria. ... In usual therapeutic dosage, pemoline exhibits no substantial effects on the peripheral circulatory system.

McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 92. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Hospital Pharmacists, Inc., 1992 (Plus Supplements 1992)., p. 1309


Cylert (pemoline) has a pharmacological activity similar to that of other known central nervous system stimulants; however, it has minimal sympathomimetic effects. Although studies indicate that pemoline may act in animals through dopaminergic mechanisms, the exact mechanism and site of action of the drug in man is not known.

FDA; Center for Drug Evaluation and Research; Label Information for Cylert (Pemoline) (Last updated December 2002). Available from, as of January 15, 2008: https://www.fda.gov/cder/foi/label/2003/016832s022_017703s018lbl.pdf
