奥氮平治疗恶心、谵妄、焦虑、失眠和恶病质的证据汇总
奥氮平属于第二代非典型抗精神病药物,临床上常被超说明书用于治疗成人恶心、谵妄、焦虑、失眠和恶病质。因此,姑息治疗的临床医生可以利用它来缓解他们患者的多种症状。本文将审查奥氮平超说明书使用的药理学和可用证据。
药理学:奥氮平具有独特的作用受体,拮抗中枢神经系统多巴胺受体(治疗恶心、谵妄),抑制5-HT2受体(失眠、焦虑、恶病质有关)及抗胆碱能作用[1-3]。达峰时间约为6小时,终末消除半衰期21-54小时[4]。
不良反应和注意事项:与其他抗精神病药相比,奥氮平较少引起锥体外系症状[5],对QTc间期的影响小于氟哌啶醇[6],但嗜睡[7]和体重增加[8-10]的不良反应较明显。此外,奥氮平与口干、高血糖症、水肿以及老年痴呆患者的死亡率有关。肾或肝损害的患者无需调整剂量,肝病终末期谨慎使用。
恶心:两个病例报告和一项回顾性试验研究了奥氮平对慢性恶心、呕吐的疗效,平均剂量5mg/d[12,13]。在一项开放性标签研究中,晚期癌症患者接受奥氮平2.5mg-10mg,生活质量显著改善,恶心症状缓解[14]。对于化疗引起的恶心和呕吐(CINV),许多有力的证据支持奥氮平的疗效[15]。一项双盲随机对照试验表明,奥氮平对于CINV的治疗要优于胃复安(无呕吐比例70%vs31%,a number-needed-to-treat of 2.5)[16]。
谵妄:奥氮平对谵妄的疗效已被证明与氟哌啶醇相当。剂量范围为2.5mg-10mg/d,最大剂量可达20mg/d[17]。一项针对晚期癌症患者的开放标签初步研究发现,37%的患者对奥氮平(5mg-10mg/d)治疗有响应[18]。在另一项前瞻性开放试验中,79例癌症住院患者服用奥氮平治疗谵妄,结果76%的患者症状完全缓解[19]。
焦虑:奥氮平已被研究用于难治性焦虑症(GAD)。在一项随机安慰剂对照试验中,氟西汀单药治疗效果不佳的GAD患者添加奥氮平或安慰剂,结果发现,奥氮平(平均剂量8.7mg/d)疗效优于安慰剂[20]。
失眠:奥氮平(初始最小剂量2.5mg)辅助SSRI可以提高抑郁症患者的睡眠效率、改善睡眠质量[21]。此外,还有研究发现,单剂量10mg奥氮平能够增加慢波睡眠及总睡眠时间[3]。
恶病质:奥氮平已被研究用于慢性疾病如癌症相关的恶病质治疗。奥氮平5mg/d辅助醋酸甲地孕酮治疗,能显著刺激患者食欲,增加体重[22]。在一项开放标签研究中,奥氮平2.5-20mg单药治疗能够减弱晚期癌症患者的体重减轻现象[23]。
证据表明,奥氮平对于化疗所致的恶心和呕吐具有一定的疗效,还对谵妄、焦虑、失眠、恶病质同样有效。然而,由于其治疗成本和长期护理中的潜在障碍,姑息治疗的临床医生要充分权衡,谨慎对待这些超说明书使用。
