ILOPERIDONE vs TOVALT ODT
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Iloperidone is an atypical antipsychotic with high affinity for serotonin 5-HT2A and dopamine D2 receptors; also moderate affinity for D3, D4, 5-HT6, 5-HT7, and α1-adrenergic receptors; low affinity for H1, 5-HT1A, and α2-adrenergic receptors; no affinity for M1 muscarinic receptors.
Tovalt ODT (selegiline) is a selective, irreversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B). At therapeutic doses, it inhibits MAO-B more selectively than MAO-A, leading to increased levels of dopamine in the brain.
1-2 mg orally twice daily; target dose 6-12 mg/day; maximum 12 mg/day
20 mg sublingually as needed for BTP, with a minimum interval of 2 hours between doses; maximum 4 doses per day.

Clinical Note
moderateIloperidone + Haloperidol
"The metabolism of Haloperidol can be decreased when combined with Iloperidone."
Terminal elimination half-life 18 hours in extensive CYP2D6 metabolizers, 33 hours in poor metabolizers; clinical context: steady-state reached in ~5-7 days.
Terminal elimination half-life approximately 40–60 hours after multiple dosing; clinical context: reaches steady-state after 2–3 weeks.
Primarily hepatic metabolism via CYP3A4 and CYP2D6; approximately 7% excreted unchanged in urine and 18% in feces; total renal elimination of metabolites ~25%, fecal ~60%.
Primarily hepatic metabolism; 70–80% as inactive metabolites in urine, <5% unchanged in urine, 20–30% fecal.
