Pitolisant (INN) or tiprolisant (USAN) is a histamine receptor inverse agonist/antagonist selective for the H3 subtype. It has stimulant and nootropic effects in animal studies and may have several medical applications, having been researched for the treatment of narcolepsy, for which it has been granted orphan drug status in the EU and US. It is currently in clinical trials for schizophrenia and Parkinson’s disease. Pitolisant hydrochloride was approved by European Medicine Agency (EMA) on Mar 31, 2016. It was developed and marketed as Wakix® by Bioprojet in EU. Wakix® is available as the tablet for oral use, containing 4.5 mg and 18 mg of Pitolisant hydrochloride. The initial dose of 9 mg (two 4.5 mg, tablets) per day, and it should be used at the lowest effective dose, depending on individual patient response and tolerance, according to an up-titration scheme, without exceeding the dose of 36 mg/day. Pitolisant was the first clinically used H3 receptor inverse agonist.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Wakix (Pitolisant) should be used at the lowest effective dose, depending on individual patient response and tolerance, according to an up-titration scheme, without exceeding the dose of 36 mg/day: - Week 1: initial dose of 9 mg (two 4.5 mg tablets) per day. - Week 2: the dose may be increased to 18 mg (one 18 mg tablet) per day or decreased to 4.5 mg (one 4.5 mg tablet) per day. - Week 3: the dose may be increased to 36 mg (two 18 mg tablets) per day. At any time the dose can be decreased (down to 4.5 mg per day) or increased (up to 36 mg per day) according to the physician assessment and the patient’s response.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

Longitudinal muscle strips from small intestine from guinea pig were dissected out and incubated in a gassed O2/CO2 (95%/5%) modified Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate medium at 37°C in presence of 1 mkM mepyramine to block H1 receptors. After equilibration, contractile activity under stimulation (rectangular pulses of 15 V, 0.5 ms, and 0.1 Hz) was recorded. Concentration-response curves of the effect of (R)-alpha-MeHA alone or together with BF2.649 (Pitolisant) were performed.
