Brand Names

Generic Name
Zonisamide
DrugBank Accession Number
DB00909
Background

Zonisamide is a sulfonamide anticonvulsant used as an adjunctive therapy in adults with partial-onset seizures.7,8 Zonisamide may act by blocking repetitive firing of voltage-gated sodium channels, leading to a reduction of T-type calcium channel currents or by binding allosterically to GABA receptors. This latter action may inhibit the uptake of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA while enhancing the uptake of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate.7,8 Zonisamide represents an alternative for patients that remain refractory to established antiepileptic drugs. In 1989, it was approved for commercial use in Japan. The US and Europe approved it in 2000 and 2005, respectively.1,4

Pharmacodynamics

By stopping the spread of seizure discharges, zonisamide prevents the extensor component of tonic convulsion, restricts the spread of focal seizures and prevents the propagation of seizures from the cortex to subcortical structures.4,5 In animal models, zonisamide was effective against tonic extension seizures but ineffective against clonic seizures. It also increased the threshold for generalized seizures and reduced the duration of cortical focal seizures.7 Aside from its antiepileptic effects, zonisamide is capable of activating neuroprotective mechanisms. It inhibits nitric oxide synthase and ​​reduces ischemia-induced memory impairment and lipid peroxidation.4

The use of zonisamide may lead to potentially fatal reactions. Severe reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, fulminant hepatic necrosis, agranulocytosis, and aplastic anemia have been reported in patients treated with sulfonamides such as zonisamide. Zonisamide may also lead to the development of serious hematological events, drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and multi-organ hypersensitivity, acute myopia and secondary angle closure glaucoma, as well as suicidal behaviour and ideation.7,8 Zonisamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, which may lead to metabolic acidosis in patients treated with this drug. Its therapeutic effects due to this pharmacological action are unknown.7

Mechanism of action

The mechanism of action by which zonisamide controls seizures has not been fully established. However, its antiepileptic properties may be due to its effects on sodium and calcium channels.7,8 Zonisamide blocks sodium channels and reduces voltage-dependent, transient inward currents, stabilizing neuronal membranes and suppressing neuronal hypersynchronization.7,8 It affects T-type calcium currents, but has no effect on L-type calcium currents.3,4,6

Zonisamide suppresses synaptically-driven electrical activity by altering the synthesis, release, and degradation of neurotransmitters, such as glutamate, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), dopamine, serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine 5-HT), and acetylcholine.4,2 Furthermore, it binds to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor ionophore complex without producing changes in chloride flux.7,8 In vitro studies have suggested that zonisamide does not affect postsynaptic GABA or glutamate responses, nor the neuronal or glial uptake of [3H]-GABA.

Absorption

Between 200 and 400 mg, zonisamide follows a dose-proportional pharmacokinetic profile.7,8 At concentrations higher than 800 mg, the Cmax and AUC increase in a disproportional manner, possibly due to zonisamide binding red blood cells. In healthy volunteers given 200 to 400 mg of zonisamide orally, peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) range between 2 and 5 µg/mL and are reached within 2–6 hours (Tmax).7 In healthy volunteers given 100 mg of zonisamide oral suspension, the Tmax ranged from 0.5 to 5 hours.8 Zonisamide has a high oral bioavailability (95%).4 The Tmax of zonisamide was delayed by food intake (4-6 hours); however, food has no effect on its bioavailability. Steady state is achieved 14 days after a stable dose is reached.7,8

Volume of distribution

Following a 400 mg oral dose, zonisamide has an apparent volume of distribution (V/F) of 1.45 L/kg.7,8

Protein binding

At concentrations between 1.0 and 7.0 μg/mL, zonisamide is approximately 40% bound to human plasma proteins.7,8 The concentration of zonisamide is 8-fold higher in red blood cells than in plasma due to its ability to bind extensively to erythrocytes. The presence of therapeutic concentrations of phenytoin, phenobarbital, or carbamazepine does not affect zonisamide protein binding.7,8

Metabolism

Zonisamide metabolites are generated mainly by principally reductive and conjugative mechanisms. Oxidation reactions play a minor role in the metabolism of zonisamide.4 Zonisamide is metabolized by N-acetyl-transferases to form N-acetyl zonisamide and reduced to form the open ring metabolite, 2–sulfamoylacetylphenol (SMAP). The reduction of zonisamide to SMAP is mediated by CYP3A4.1,4,7,8 Zonisamide does not induce liver enzymes or its own metabolism.1

Route of elimination

Zonisamide is mainly excreted as the parent drug and the glucuronide of a metabolite. Urine is the main route of zonisamide excretion, and only a small portion of this drug is excreted in feces.1 Following multiple doses of radiolabeled zonisamide, 62% of the dose was recovered in the urine, and 3% in feces by day 10. Of the excreted dose of zonisamide, 35% was recovered unchanged, 15% as N-acetyl zonisamide, and 50% as the glucuronide of 2–sulfamoylacetylphenol (SMAP).7,8

Half-life

In plasma, the elimination half-life of zonisamide is approximately 63 hours. In red blood cells, it is approximately 105 hours.7,8

Clearance

In patients not taking enzyme-inducing antiepilepsy drugs (AEDs), the plasma clearance of oral zonisamide is approximately 0.30-0.35 mL/min/kg. In patients treated with AEDs, this value increases to 0.5 mL/min/kg.7,8 Renal clearance is approximately 3.5 mL/min after a single-dose of zonisamide.7,8 In red blood cells, the clearance of an oral dose of zonisamide is 2 mL/min.7

Toxicity

Information on daily doses over 800 mg/day of zonisamide is limited. During clinical development, three patients ingested unknown amounts of zonisamide as suicide attempts, and all of them were hospitalized with central nervous system symptoms. One patient became comatose and developed bradycardia, hypotension, and respiratory depression; 31 hours after zonisamide ingestion, plasma level was 100.1 µg/mL. Zonisamide plasma levels fell with a half-life of 57 hours, and the patient became alert five days later.7,8 There are no specific antidotes for zonisamide overdosage. In case of a suspected recent overdose, emesis should be induced or gastric lavage performed with the usual precautions to protect the airway. General supportive care is indicated, including frequent monitoring of vital signs and close observation.7,8 Due to its long half-life and low protein binding, renal dialysis may be effective in treating zonisamide overdose; however, the effectiveness of this procedure has not been formally studied.8

In vivo studies found no evidence of carcinogenicity at zonisamide doses equivalent to or higher than the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD). In an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay in CHL cells, zonisamide displayed mutagenicity. Signs of reproductive toxicity were also detected in rats treated with a dose 0.5 times the MRHD.7,8
