Uses

1.1 Major Depressive Disorder

Escitalopram is indicated for the acute and maintenance treatment of major depressive disorder in adults and in adolescents 12 to 17 years of age [see Clinical Studies (14.1)].

A major depressive episode (DSM-IV) implies a prominent and relatively persistent (nearly every day for at least 2 weeks) depressed or dysphoric mood that usually interferes with daily functioning, and includes at least five of the following nine symptoms: depressed mood, loss of interest in usual activities, significant change in weight and/or appetite, insomnia or hypersomnia, psychomotor agitation or retardation, increased fatigue, feelings of guilt or worthlessness, slowed thinking or impaired concentration, a suicide attempt or suicidal ideation.

1.2 Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Escitalopram is indicated for the acute treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in adults [see Clinical Studies (14.2)].

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (DSM-IV) is characterized by excessive anxiety and worry (apprehensive expectation) that is persistent for at least six months and which the person finds difficult to control. It must be associated with at least three of the following symptoms: restlessness or feeling keyed up or on edge, being easily fatigued, difficulty concentrating or mind going blank, irritability, muscle tension, and sleep disturbance.

INDICATIONS AND USAGE: EnLyte® is indicated for the distinct nutritional requirements of individuals who have suboptimal folates levels in the cerebrospinal fluid, plasma and/or red blood cells, and require a maintenance level. Folate is effective in the treatment of hyperhomocysteinemia and/or megaloblastic anemias 12 (as may be seen in tropical or nontropical sprue) and in anemias of nutritional origin13, pregnancy, infancy, childhood or other related folate-malabsorption complications of an inborn or environmental origin.14,43

EnLyte® is not a drug, but may be used as monotherapy ("rescue" therapy) or adjunctive therapy as determined by your licensed medical practitioner. The adjunctive use of EnLyte® enables medical practitioners to combine therapeutic modalities (dietary management and drug therapy).18,19 In patients with suboptimal folate levels – and as determined by your licensed medical practitioner, EnLyte® may be administered as rescue or adjunctive folate-therapy to provide a protective effect in reducing the risk of secondary/endpoints and/or disease-states of a hyperhomocysteinemia and/or vascular nature such as may be found with depression; or EnLyte® may be administered as rescue or adjunctive folate-therapy to provide a protective effect in reducing the risk of secondary/endpoints and/or disease-states of a hyperhomocysteinemia and/or methylation metabolic imbalance as may be found with depressed patients.

Other Information

Escitalopram tablets, USP are orally administered selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). Escitalopram is the pure S-enantiomer (single isomer) of the racemic bicyclic phthalane derivative citalopram. Escitalopram is designated S- (+)-1-[3-(dimethyl-amino)propyl]-1-(p-fluorophenyl)-5-phthalancarbonitrile oxalate with the following structural formula:

Chemical Structure

The molecular formula is C20H21FN2O ∙ C2H2O4 and the molecular weight is 414.40.

Escitalopram oxalate, USP occurs as a fine, white to slightly-yellow powder and is freely soluble in methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), soluble in isotonic saline solution, sparingly soluble in water and ethanol, slightly soluble in ethyl acetate, and insoluble in heptane.

Escitalopram tablets are film-coated, round tablets containing escitalopram oxalate in strengths equivalent to 10 mg escitalopram base. The 10 mg tablets are scored. The tablets also contain the following inactive ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose, colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, talc, magnesium stearate, opadry white (Titanium dioxide, Hypromellose 3cP, Hypromellose 6cP, Macrogol and Polysorbate 80).

DESCRIPTION: EnLyte® is an orally-administered prescription folate-containing product for the clinical dietary management of depression related to suboptimal folate levels associated with metabolic imbalances in transformylation and/or methylation biochemistry.1-8,20

Folate appears to enhance synthesis and/or regeneration of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), which is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis of monoamine neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine.15,16,17Additionally, folate may normalize elevated homocysteine levels and reduce the risk of neural tube defects. Elevated homocysteine has been observed among women with neural tube defect (NTD)-affected pregnancies.36 The protective effect of DeltaFolateTM in EnLyte® comes in supplying an array of folate-derivatives in combination with folate coenzymes, cofactors and co-metabolites that decrease the risk of bioavailability-interference such as might occur with inborn or environmental folate-malabsorption. This allows the folate substrate, THF, to be utilized in transformylation and/or methylation biochemistry.1-8,14

EnLyte® can be taken by women of childbearing age, pregnant women, and lactating and nonlactating mothers.
