DUBLIN, Jan. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "QSYMIA (Phentermine-Topiramate), Drug Insight and Market Forecast - 2032" report has been added to
ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The report provides insight about mechanism of action, dosage and administration, as well as research and development activity including regulatory milestones, along with other developmental activities.
Further, it also consists of future market assessments inclusive of the QSYMIA (Phentermine- topiramate) market forecast, analysis for Obesity in the 7MM, descriptive analysis such as SWOT, analyst views, comprehensive overview of market competitors, and brief about other emerging therapies in Obesity.
Drug Summary
QSYMIA, previously known as Qnexa, is a combination of phentermine, a sympathomimetic amine anorectic, and topiramate extended-release, an antiepileptic drug.
It is indicated as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for chronic weight management in adults with an initial Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m2 or greater (obese) or 27 kg/m2 or greater (overweight) in the presence of at least one weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or dyslipidemia.
The recommended dosage regimen of QSYMIA is 3.75 mg/23 mg (phentermine 3.75 mg/topiramate 23 mg extended-release) daily for 14 days; then increase to 7.5 mg/46 mg daily. Discontinue or escalate dosage if 3% weight loss is not achieved after 12 weeks on a 7.5 mg/46 mg dose or if 5% weight loss is not achieved after 12 weeks on a maximum daily dose of 15 mg/92 mg.
Phentermine is a sympathomimetic amine with pharmacologic activity similar to amphetamine (d- and d/l-amphetamine), the prototype drug of this class used in obesity. Drugs of this class used in obesity are commonly known as "anorectics" or "anorexigenics."
The effect of phentermine on chronic weight management is likely mediated by the release of catecholamines in the hypothalamus, resulting in reduced appetite and decreased food consumption, but other metabolic effects may also be involved. The exact mechanism of action is not known.
The precise mechanism of action of topiramate on chronic weight management is not known. Topiramate's effect on chronic weight management may be due to its effects on both appetite suppression and satiety enhancement, induced by a combination of pharmacologic effects, including augmenting the activity of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyrate, modulation of voltage-gated ion channels, inhibition of AMPA/kainite excitatory glutamate receptors, or inhibition of carbonic anhydrase.
