12.1 Mechanism of Action Prucalopride, a selective serotonin type 4 (5-HT 4 ) receptor agonist, is a gastrointestinal (GI) prokinetic agent that stimulates colonic peristalsis (high-amplitude propagating contractions [HAPCs]), which increases bowel motility. Prucalopride was devoid of effects mediated via 5-HT 2A , 5-HT 2B , 5-HT 3 , motilin or CCK-A receptors in vitro at concentrations exceeding 5-HT 4 receptor affinity by 150-fold or greater. In isolated GI tissues from various animal species, prucalopride facilitated acetylcholine release to enhance the amplitude of contractions and stimulate peristalsis. In rats and dogs, prucalopride stimulated gastrointestinal motility with contractions starting from the proximal colon to the anal sphincter.

Prucalopride tablets are indicated for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) in adults. Prucalopride tablets are a serotonin-4 (5-HT 4 ) receptor agonist indicated for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) in adults. ( 1 )

Prucalopride tablets can be taken with or without food. The recommended dosage by patient population is shown in Table 1.

Most common (≥2%) are headache, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal distension, dizziness, vomiting, flatulence, and fatigue.

The data described below represent 2,530 patients (1,251 received prucalopride tablets 2 mg once daily and 1,279 received placebo) with CIC from 6 double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 12 weeks to 24 weeks in duration. In these trials overall, patients were primarily female (76%) and white (76%). The mean age was 47 years (range 17 to 95 years) [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )]. Common Table 2 below summarizes the incidence (%) of common occurring in at least 2% of patients with CIC receiving either 2 mg of prucalopride tablets once daily or placebo and at an incidence greater than in the placebo group from the six double-blind placebo-controlled trials described above.

Less Common Less common occurring in <2% of patients receiving prucalopride tablets 2 mg once daily include: Gastrointestinal disorders: Abnormal gastrointestinal sounds Metabolism and nutrition disorders: Decreased appetite Nervous system disorders: Migraine Renal and urinary disorders: Pollakiuria Diarrhea Of the patients who reported diarrhea, 70% (110 out of 157) reported it in the first week of treatment. Diarrhea typically resolved within a few days in 73% (80 out of 110) of those patients. Severe diarrhea was reported in 1....

Prucalopride tablets are contraindicated in patients with: A history of hypersensitivity to prucalopride tablets. Reactions including dyspnea, rash, pruritus, urticaria, and facial edema have been observed [see ( 6.2 )]. Intestinal perforation or obstruction due to structural or functional disorder of the gut wall, obstructive ileus, severe inflammatory conditions of the intestinal tract such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and toxic megacolon/megarectum.
