Drizalma Sprinkle (duloxetine delayed-release capsule) has launched for the treatment of various neuropsychiatric and pain disorders in patients with difficulty swallowing, according to a release from Sun Pharma. It can be swallowed whole, sprinkled on applesauce, or administered via nasogastric tube.
Difficulty swallowing affects approximately 30%-35% of long-term care residents, but the main alternative – crushing tablets – introduces risks of its own to the administration process.
This sprinkle is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder in adults, generalized anxiety disorder in patients aged 7 years and older, diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain in adults, and chronic musculoskeletal pain in adults. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration for these indications July 19, 2019.
It carries a boxed warning for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The most common adverse reactions (5% or more of treated participants and twice the incidence with placebo) were nausea, dry mouth, somnolence, constipation, decreased appetite, and hyperhidrosis. The full prescribing information can be found on the FDA website.
