CEVIMELINE HYDROCHLORIDE CAPSULES
DESCRIPTION
Cevimeline is cis -2’-methylspiro{1-azabicyclo [2.2.2] octane-3,
5’-[1,3]
oxathiolane} hydrochloride, hydrate (2:1). Its empirical formula is C
H
NOS.HCl.½
H O, and its structural formula is:
Cevimeline has a molecular weight of 244.79. It is a white to off
white crystalline powder
with a melting point range of 201 to 203 C. It is freely soluble in
alcohol and chloroform,
very soluble in water, and virtually insoluble in ether. The pH of a
1% solution ranges
from 4.6 to 5.6. Inactive ingredients include lactose monohydrate,
hydroxypropyl
cellulose, and magnesium stearate.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
_Pharmacodynamics_
Cevimeline is a cholinergic agonist which binds to muscarinic
receptors. Muscarinic
agonists in sufficient dosage can increase secretion of exocrine
glands, such as salivary
and sweat glands and increase tone of the smooth muscle in the
gastrointestinal and
urinary tracts.
_Pharmacokinetics_
Absorption: After administration of a single 30 mg capsule, cevimeline
was rapidly
absorbed with a mean time to peak concentration of 1.5 to 2 hours. No
accumulation of
active drug or its metabolites was observed following multiple dose
administration. When
administered with food, there is a decrease in the rate of absorption,
with a fasting t
of 1.53 hours and a t
of 2.86 hours after a meal; the peak concentration is reduced
by 17.3%. Single oral doses across the clinical dose range are dose
proportional.
Distribution: Cevimeline has a volume of distribution of approximately
6L/kg and is
<20% bound to human plasma proteins. This suggests that cevimeline is
extensively
bound to tissues; however, the specific binding sites are unknown.

Metabolism: Isozymes CYP2D6 and CYP3A3/4 are responsible for the
metabolism of
cevimeline. After 24 hours, 86.7% of the dose was recovered (16.0%
unchanged,
44.5% as cis and trans-sulfoxide, 22.3% of the dose as glucuronic acid
