== Adverse effects == |
|||
In clinical trials the most common adverse events leading to discontinuation were [[nausea]], [[diarrhea]], and vomiting.<ref name="Aricept FDA label" /><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Noetzli M, Eap CB | title = Pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic aspects of drugs used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease | journal = Clinical Pharmacokinetics | volume = 52 | issue = 4 | pages = 225–241 | date = April 2013 | pmid = 23408070 | doi = 10.1007/s40262-013-0038-9 | s2cid = 1686999 }}</ref> Other side effects included difficulty sleeping, muscle cramps and loss of appetite. Most side effects were observed in patients taking the 23 mg dose compared to 10 mg or lower doses. Side effects are mild and transient in most patients, lasting up to three weeks and usually improved even with continued use.<ref name="Aricept FDA label"/><ref name=Kum2020/> |
|||
Donepezil, like other cholinesterase inhibitors, can cause nightmares due to enhanced activation of the [[visual association cortex]] during [[REM sleep]].<ref name=Kum2020/> Dosing donepezil in the morning can reduce the frequency of nightmares.<ref name=Kum2020/> |
|||
===Precautions=== |
|||
Donepezil should be used with caution in people with [[heart disease]], cardiac conduction disturbances, [[chronic obstructive pulmonary disease]], [[asthma]], severe cardiac [[arrhythmia]] and [[sick sinus syndrome]].<ref name="Aricept FDA label"/> |
|||
People with [[peptic ulcer disease]] or taking [[NSAID]]s should use with caution because increased risk of gastrointestinal bleeding was noted.<ref name="Aricept FDA label"/> Slow heart beat and fainting in people with heart problems were also seen. These symptoms may appear more frequent when initiating treatment or increasing the donepezil dose. Although occurrence of seizures is rare, people who have a predisposition to seizures should be treated with caution.<ref name="Aricept FDA label" /> |
|||
If daily donepezil has suspended for 7 days or less, restarting at the same dose is recommended, while if the suspension lasts longer than 7 days, retitrate from 5 mg daily is suggested.<ref name="Aricept 2019">{{cite web | title=Donepezil: MedlinePlus Drug Information | website=MedlinePlus | date=22 December 2019 | url=https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/meds/a697032.html | access-date=31 December 2019 | quote=If you forget to take a dose of donepezil, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule.

|||
== Mechanism of action == |
|||
Donepezil binds and reversibly inhibits enzymes called [[cholinesterase]]s, especially [[acetylcholinesterase]], thus inhibiting hydrolysis of acetylcholine. This increases acetylcholine concentrations at cholinergic synapses.<ref name=Kum2020/> |
|||
The precise mechanism of action of donepezil in patients with Alzheimer's disease is not fully understood. Certainly, Alzheimer's disease involves a substantial loss of the elements of the [[cholinergic system]] and it is generally accepted that the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease are related to this cholinergic deficit, particularly in the [[cerebral cortex]] and other areas of the brain.<ref name="pmid63862">{{cite journal | vauthors = Davies P, Maloney AJ | title = Selective loss of central cholinergic neurons in Alzheimer's disease | journal = Lancet | volume = 2 | issue = 8000 | pages = 1403 | date = December 1976 | pmid = 63862 | doi = 10.1016/s0140-6736(76)91936-x | s2cid = 43250282 }}</ref><ref name="pmid9316159">{{cite journal | vauthors = Kása P, Rakonczay Z, Gulya K | title = The cholinergic system in Alzheimer's disease | journal = Progress in Neurobiology | volume = 52 | issue = 6 | pages = 511–535 | date = August 1997 | pmid = 9316159 | doi = 10.1016/s0301-0082(97)00028-2 | s2cid = 8460305 }}</ref> |
|||
In addition to its actions as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, donepezil has been found to act as a potent [[agonist]] of the [[sigma-1 receptor|σ<sub>1</sub> receptor]] (K<sub>i</sub> = 14.6 nM), and has been shown to produce specific [[nootropic|antiamnestic]] effects in animals mainly via this action.<ref name="MauriceSu2009">{{cite journal | vauthors = Maurice T, Su TP | title = The pharmacology of sigma-1 receptors | journal = Pharmacology & Therapeutics | volume = 124 | issue = 2 | pages = 195–206 | date = November 2009 | pmid = 19619582 | pmc = 2785038 | doi = 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2009.07.001 }}</ref> |
|||
Some noncholinergic mechanisms have also been proposed.<ref name=Kum2020/> Donepezil upregulates the [[nicotinic receptor]]s in the [[cortical neurons]], adding to [[neuroprotective]] activity.<ref name=Kum2020/> It inhibits [[Sodium channel#Voltage-gated sodium channels|voltage-activated sodium currents]] reversibly and delays rectifier [[Voltage-gated potassium channel|potassium currents]] and fast transient potassium currents, although this action is unlikely to contribute to clinical effects.<ref name=Kum2020/> |

===ADHD=== |

The addition of donepezil with existing ADHD medications has shown mixed results.<ref name="Elbe 2019 p.

===Pervasive developmental disorder=== |

Donepezil, along with other [[cholinesterase inhibitor]]s, is suggested as having potential for trouble behaviors: [[irritability]], [[hyperactivity]], and difficulty in [[social communication]] which are typically seen in those with [[pervasive developmental disorder]], [[pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified]], and [[autism spectrum disorder|autism-spectrum disorder]].<ref name="Elbe 2019 p. "/> |

===Anorexia nervosa=== |

Donepezil is furthermore suggested as a feasible therapeutic option for [[anorexia nervosa]]. Emerging literature reports that a subset of patients suffering from restrictive anorexia nervosa have enhanced habit formation compared with healthy controls. Habit formation is modulated by striatal cholinergic interneurons.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Favier M, Janickova H, Justo D, Kljakic O, Runtz L, Natsheh JY, Pascoal TA, Germann J, Gallino D, Kang JI, Meng XQ, Antinora C, Raulic S, Jacobsen JP, Moquin L, Vigneault E, Gratton A, Caron MG, Duriez P, Brandon MP, Neto PR, Chakravarty MM, Herzallah MM, Gorwood P, Prado MA, Prado VF, El Mestikawy S | title = Cholinergic dysfunction in the dorsal striatum promotes habit formation and maladaptive eating | journal = The Journal of Clinical Investigation | volume = 130 | issue = 12 | pages = 6616–6630 | date = December 2020 | pmid = 33164988 | doi = 10.1172/JCI138532 | pmc = 7685731 }}</ref> Based on the physiopathology of anorexia nervosa, namely in terms of cholinergic deficiencies, the effects of donepezil and other drugs that act as cholinesterase inhibitors could thus be effective in the treatment of the disorder.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Halabe Bucay A | title = Donepezil (aricept) as a treatment for anorexia nervosa: a very feasible therapeutic possibility | journal = Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs | volume = 18 | issue = 5 | pages = 569–571 | date = May 2009 | pmid = 19388874 | doi = 10.1517/13543780902810360 | s2cid = 72686919 }}</ref> However, no trial to date supports this hypothesis. |
