Indicated for diarrhea-predominant, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D), in adult men and women
Documented hypersensitivity to drug or components of the formulation
Patients who do not have a gallbladder
Known or suspected gallbladder obstruction, biliary duct obstruction or sphincter of Oddi disease or dysfunction; increased risk for sphincter of Oddi spasm
Alcoholism, alcohol abuse, alcohol addiction, or in patients who drink >3 alcoholic beverages/day; increased risk of pancreatitis
History of pancreatitis, pancreatic duct obstruction, or structural diseases of the pancreas; increased risk of acute pancreatitis
Severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C); risk of significantly increased eluxadoline plasma concentrations
Carboxylic acids and derivatives, Prokinetic drugs
Eluxadoline is a mu-opioid receptor agonist, kappa opioid receptor agonist & delta opioid receptor antagonist. Eluxadoline works directly in intestine to reduce peristalsis, also makes the nerves in intestine less sensitive to stimulation.
Administration:
May be taken with food.
Adult Dose:
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Indicated for diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) in adult men and women
100 mg PO BID with food
Discontinue in patients who develop severe constipation lasting >4 days
Hepatic impairment
Mild-to-moderate (Child-Pugh A or B): Decrease dose to 75 mg PO BID; monitor for impaired mental or physical abilities needed to perform potentially hazardous activities
Severe (Child-Pugh C): Contraindicated
Oral Contraceptive, Cyclosporine, Probenecid, Rosuvastatin.

Precaution:
Eluxadoline is a mu opioid receptor agonist; because of this mechanism of action, the potential for increased risk of sphincter of Oddi spasm exists, resulting in pancreatitis or hepatic enzyme elevation associated with acute abdominal pain
In patients with a gallbladder, evaluate a patient’s alcohol intake prior to starting therapy; instruct patients to avoid chronic or acute excessive alcohol use while in therapy; monitor for new or worsening abdominal pain that may radiate to back or shoulder, with or without nausea and vomiting; instruct patients to immediately stop therapy and seek medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of pancreatitis such as acute abdominal or epigastric pain radiating to back or shoulder associated with elevations of pancreatic enzymes with or without nausea and vomiting
Lactation
Unknown if distributed in human breast milk
Secreted in rat milk
Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for the drug and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition
Store in a cool & dry place, protect from light. Keep out of the reach of children.
Carboxylic acids and derivatives, Prokinetic drugs
Mu opioid receptor agonist; it also is a delta opioid receptor antagonist and a kappa opioid receptor agonist
The multiple opioid activity is designed to treat the symptoms of IBS-D while reducing the incidence of constipation that can occur with unopposed mu opioid receptor agonists
Pregnancy
No studies in pregnant women
Animal reproduction studies
Oral and SC administration of eluxadoline to rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses approximately 51 and 115 times the human exposure after a single oral dose of 100 mg, respectively, demonstrated no teratogenic effects. In a prenatal and postnatal development study in rats
No adverse effects were observed in offspring with oral administration of eluxadoline at doses approximately 10 times the human exposure
Lactation
Unknown if distributed in human breast milk
Secreted in rat milk
Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for the drug and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition
