What to Do About Missed Doses? A Retrospective Study of Olanzapine in the Elderly

Abstract: Background Schizophrenia is characterized by a high disease burden. Olanzapine is a common drug used in antipsychotic medication. Little is known about the population pharmacokinetics of olanzapine in elderly patients. Missed doses are a common and unavoidable issue during the treatment of psychiatric diseases, especially in elderly patients. This study aimed to identify what an elderly person should do if doses are inadvertently missed. Methods Data were collected from… Show more

“…A PopPK model has been created to increase the possibility of meeting suitable pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets due to the limited therapeutic index of voriconazole and the relatively large systematic interindividual variability ( Chen et al, 2019 ). On the other hand, due to the tendency of order patients to miss doses of medication, they developed a strategy to correct for missed doses through establishing a PopPK model and simulating ( Xiao et al, 2021 ).…”

“…The serum concentration of OLZ was determined by using a previously reported analytical method developed by our laboratory, where the calibration curve was linear over a wide range of concentrations of 2–200 ng/ml ( Xiao et al, 2021 ). In particular, we replicated the static values across time, excluded OLZ concentrations below the lower limit of quantification, and assumed that TDM measurements of other medications were zero if they had not been co-administrated.…”

“…The large inter-individual pharmacokinetic variations in OLZ, which are influenced by genetic and environmental factors ( Arnaiz et al, 2021 ), make TDM an essential part of personalizing OLZ treatment in any age group, especially the pediatric population (high-level recommendation to use TDM according to guidelines of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Neuropsychopharmakologie und Pharmakopsychiatrie consensus) ( Hiemke et al, 2018 ). Several studies, using popPK and multiple regression analyses, have been conducted to reveal the sources of the pharmacokinetic variability of OLZ by integrating various covariates (e.g., age, gender, body weight, and concomitant medications) ( Deng et al, 2020 ; Xiao et al, 2021 ; Zang et al, 2021 ). All of these studies involved low-dimensional data, with a small sample size and few patient-related variables.…”

“…The trough concentration was collected during the elimination phase. Even if there were errors in the serum sampling time, the trough concentrations’ changes were not significant ( Xiao et al, 2021 ). The absorption rate constant (Ka) was set to previously published values of 0.908/h due to the absence of serum samples throughout the absorption phase ( Venkatakrishnan and Obach, 2005 ; Nishimura et al, 2016 ).…”
