Pharmacist Assessment Report

Tiagabine: Known uses and market status in Australia

Summary

The TxGNN model produced candidates for Tiagabine, but every candidate that can be traced to a source is already a known use. There is therefore currently no new predicted indication for this drug. The sections below show how the model’s candidates relate to known uses.

Safety Considerations

  • Knowledge-graph contraindication signals (from the TxGNN knowledge graph, not product label text): anxiety disorder, neurotic disorder, dysthymic disorder, liver disease, gallbladder disease.
  • Drug interactions: 97 interactions were identified. Moderate-level interactions include aprepitant, morphine (including liposomal), opium, dronabinol, nabilone and metoclopramide. Other interactions (e.g. pantoprazole, omeprazole, metformin, simvastatin) are of unknown severity.
  • Seizure-related safety signal: the literature reports tiagabine-associated non-convulsive status epilepticus, particularly at higher or rapidly increased doses. This is relevant to any use in reflex epilepsy syndromes.
  • Visual effects: antiepileptic drugs can cause visual disturbances, and visual field effects are discussed for GABAergic agents. This warrants attention when considering a visual-trigger indication.

Warnings and contraindications from the TGA-approved Product Information (PI) were not available. Please refer to the PI for full safety information.
