HIDE SMILES / InChI
Naldemedine (Symproic) is an opioid antagonist indicated for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adult patients with chronic non-cancer pain. Naldemedine is an opioid antagonist with binding affinities for mu-, delta-, and kappa-opioid receptors. Naldemedine functions as a peripherally-acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist in tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract, thereby decreasing the constipating effects of opioids. Naldemedine is a derivative of naltrexone to which a side chain has been added that increases the molecular weight and the polar surface area, thereby reducing its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Naldemedine is also a substrate of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. Based on these properties, the CNS penetration of naldemedine is expected to be negligible at the recommended dose levels, limiting the potential for interference with centrally-mediated opioid analgesia. Naldemedine was approved in 2017 in both the US and Japan for the treatment of Opioid-induced Constipation.

Administration (2.1): • Alteration of analgesic dosing regimen prior to initiating SYMPROIC is not required • Patients receiving opioids for less than 4 weeks may be less responsive to SYMPROIC • Discontinue SYMPROIC if treatment with the opioid pain medication is also discontinued Dosage (2.2): • The recommended dosage of SYMPROIC is 0.2 mg orally once daily with or without food.
Route of Administration: Oral
