Data with various mitotane formulations suggest that administration with fat-rich food enhances absorption of mitotane.
Lactation Due to the lipophilic nature of mitotane, it is likely to be excreted in breast milk.
In addition, mitotane induces a state of adrenal insufficiency which leads to the disappearance of Cushing syndrome in patients with secreting adrenal carcinoma
The threshold of 20 mg/ l was reached for cumulative amounts of mitotane of approximately 500 g.
Distribution Autopsy data from patients show that mitotane is found in most tissues of the body,
Therefore, monitoring of mitotane plasma levels(e. g. every two months) is also necessary after interruption of treatment, as prolonged release of mitotane can occur.
the plasma levels of mitotane.
Since mitotane is mainly metabolised through the liver, mitotane plasma levels are expected to increase if liver function is impaired.
However, this result should be cautiously taken since the examination of the mitotane effects was not the primary endpoint of the study.
Fat-rich food: Data with various mitotane formulations suggest that administration with fat-rich food enhances absorption of mitotane.
Warfarin and coumarin-like anticoagulants: Mitotane has been reported to accelerate the metabolism of warfarin through hepatic microsomal enzyme induction, leading to an increase in dose requirements for warfarin.
The threshold of 20 mg/l was reached for cumulative amounts of mitotane of approximately 500 g.
Substances metabolised through cytochrome P450: Mitotane has been shown to have an inductive effect on cytochrome P450 enzymes.
Women of childbearing potential: Women of childbearing potential must use effective contraception during treatment with mitotane(see section 4.6).
If serious adverse reactions occur, such as neurotoxicity, treatment with mitotane may need to be temporarily interrupted.
Mitotane plasma levels should be assessed after each dose adjustment
Monitoring of plasma levels: Mitotane plasma levels should be monitored in order to adjust the mitotane dose, particularly if high starting doses are considered necessary.
Mitotane plasma levels higher than 20 mg/ l may be associated with severe undesirable effects
Mitotane plasma levels should therefore be monitored in order to adjust the Lysodren dose
Treatment can be resumed when mitotane plasma levels will be ranged between 14- 20 mg/ l.
