DALFAMPRIDINE EXTENDED-RELEASE TABLETS, FOR ORAL USE
INITIAL U.S. APPROVAL: 2010
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Dalfampridine is a potassium channel blocker indicated to improve
walking in adult patients with multiple
sclerosis (MS). This was demonstrated by an increase in walking speed
(1, 14).
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
The maximum recommended dosage is 10 mg twice daily (approximately 12
hours apart). There is no
evidence of additional benefit with doses greater than 10 mg twice
daily. Adverse reactions, including
seizures, were more frequent at higher doses. (2.1)
Take with or without food. Administer tablets whole; do not divide,
crush, chew, or dissolve (2.2)
Patients should not take double or extra doses if they miss a dose.
(2.2)
Estimated creatinine clearance (CrCl) should be known before
initiating treatment with dalfampridine
extended-release tablets. In patients with mild renal impairment (CrCl
51 to 80 mL/min), dalfampridine
extended-release tablets may reach plasma levels associated with a
greater risk of seizures, and the
potential benefits of dalfampridine extended-release tablets should be
carefully considered against
the risk of seizures in these patients (2.3, 5.2, 8.6)
