Recently, monitoring and research data indicate that there are severe cardiotoxic side effects of pharmaceutical preparations containing dextropropoxyphene, and overdose can be life-threatening. The State Food and Drug Administration organized relevant experts to evaluate and demonstrate the monitoring and research materials at home and abroad, and believed that the risk of using the drug in China was greater than the benefit. In order to ensure the safety of public drug use, the State Food and Drug Administration decided to withdraw pharmaceutical preparations containing dextropropoxide from the Chinese market in accordance with the "Drug Administration Law" and the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Drug Administration Law."

2. What is right propoxyphene? How is the listing situation in China?

Right propoxyphene is an opioid analgesic that was marketed abroad in the 1950s and 1960s for the treatment of mild to moderate pain. The drug has a single preparation, there are compound preparations, the main clinical use of right-oxygen-oxygen compound preparations. Dosage forms include tablets, capsules, injections, and the like.

Both drugs are administered as prescription drugs in our country.

3. What are the main safety risks of right propoxyphene?

Right propoxyphene has a certain side effect on the heart, and this effect is dose-dependent. The latest research results show that even if used at the dosages recommended in the instructions, right-right propofol can cause clear ECG changes, including prolonged QT interval, widened QRS complexes and prolonged QT interval, and can increase serious or even death. The risk of arrhythmia. Most of the drugs used to treat cancer pain are elderly people, which may have cardiovascular risk factors in themselves and have a higher risk of right oxypropylene use.

Right propoxyphene has a low safety and excess risk. The drug has a narrow therapeutic window, and excessive use may cause serious toxic reactions such as respiratory depression, blood pressure drop, coma, etc., and the occurrence of toxic reactions occurs rapidly, and patients may die due to untimely treatment. Statistical analysis of deaths in the United Kingdom and other European Union member states shows that the number of deaths due to overdose of the drug due to intentional or negligent results has increased significantly.

4. Why did China take measures to withdraw the market?

The safety of dextropropoxyphene, especially the safety of overuse, has been the concern of the drug regulatory authorities in various countries. In 2007, the State Food and Drug Administration organized the Drug Evaluation Center and the Drug Abuse Monitoring Center to evaluate the risk of right-drug propofol use in China. At that time, China’s monitoring data showed that the adverse reactions and drug abuse cases associated with dextropropoxyphene and its compound preparations were only cases. No drug overdose, fatalities, and drug abuse incidents were found. To ensure the safety of medication, the State Food and Drug Administration The Authority strengthened the safety monitoring and risk control of the product. At the same time, the State Food and Drug Administration and drug manufacturers have conducted risk exchanges, require drug manufacturers to revise their product specifications, add warnings to the instructions, require strict adherence to recommended doses, and use caution or disable them at certain high risks. crowd.

Recently, the National Bureau once again organized the evaluation of right propoxyphene.

9. What are the assessment conclusions and measures taken by the United Kingdom and the European Union?

Britain first noted the safety of right propoxyphene, especially the risk of overdose. In 2004, the British drug administration evaluated the risks and benefits of right propoxyphene. The evaluation found that right propoxyphene has no obvious advantage in the treatment of pain, while the risk of overdose is unacceptable. The benefit/risk ratio of oxyphene is negative. In January 2005, the United Kingdom announced the gradual withdrawal of the drug from the market.

In June 2009, the European Medicines Agency evaluated the drug in the European Union. The Committee of Experts believes that the existing evidence cannot prove that dextropropoxyphene is more effective than other alternative analgesics, but evidence suggests that the number of deaths caused by excessive use of the drug is significantly increased. The committee concluded that the risk of right dex propoxyphene, especially the risk of death caused by excessive use (intentionally or negligently), is greater than its therapeutic benefit. It is recommended that dextropropoxyphene and its compound preparations be gradually withdrawn from the EU market.

10. What are the conclusions of the United States assessment and the measures taken?

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also organized experts to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dextropropoxyphene. In July 2009, the FDA issued information that allowed right-oxyprofen to remain in the market, but required a black box warning in the description to emphasize the risk of overuse. At the same time, the FDA requires pharmaceutical companies to conduct a new study to clarify the toxic side effects of dextropropoxyphene. New research data shows that the use of right dex propoxyphene raises the risk of severe or even fatal arrhythmias in patients. Accordingly, in November 2010, the FDA also made a decision to withdraw right oxyprofen.
