Although opioid use is lower among pregnant women, trends mirror the general population. While pediatric exposures largely occur through prescriptions. This review presents a novel landscape analysis of pharmacology knowledge gaps in opioids in the maternal and pediatric populations. We queried PubMed for studies on 27 opioids, focusing on pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacoepidemiology (PE) or clinical trials (CT) in maternal and pediatric populations. English-language publications were included, and data were synthesized to identify gaps. Additionally, MarketScan claims data and United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug labels were analyzed to compare scientific evidence, opioid prescriptions/orders, and FDA recommendations. Morphine, fentanyl, methadone, and buprenorphine are the most researched opioids in PK and PE/CT literature in both populations, but hydrocodone, oxycodone, and codeine are the most prescribed. Nine opioids lack FDA labels, and four of the 18 labeled drugs lack any human data. Hydrocodone, oxycodone, and codeine labels include lactation-focused PK information, with some pediatric clinical data for the latter two. Seven opioids lack PK and PE/CT studies in the maternal population, and PK research is absent for seven opioids, and PE/CT data is lacking for eight opioids in the pediatric population. PK studies often focus on labor, delivery, and lactation accompanied by neonatal data, whereas pregnancy research mainly occurs in PE studies. In pediatric populations, study types are evenly distributed among children, but PE studies focus more on adolescents. Drug concentration is the most reported parameter in PK studies, and neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) is a key outcome in both PK and PE studies. NOWS is also researched more using real-world data, whereas neurodevelopmental outcomes are often captured in prospective observational studies. There is substantial disparity between the most commonly researched and prescribed opioids. In particular, the opioid pharmacology knowledge gaps are larger in pregnant women and for the highly prescribed opioids hydrocodone and oxycodone. The limited human data in FDA labels underscores the need for additional studies. Studies using real-world data can potentially help address these gaps.</p>","PeriodicalId":20013,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacotherapy","volume":" ","pages":"367-385"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12149789/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144079548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients were included if they were eligible for oral switch and infected with an isolate susceptible to one or more oral antibiotics; non-bacteremic urinary tract infections were excluded. The primary outcome was 30-day clinical success at end of therapy, defined as lack of infection-related hospitalization, infection-related recurrence, or change/escalation of therapy.

Thirty-three percent of patients had CRE, 67% had CRPA, and 38% of cultures were polymicrobial. The most common infection types were pneumonia (33%), intra-abdominal (26%), and bone/joint (22%). The median (interquartile range [IQR]) duration of outpatient therapy was 12 (6-25) days versus 20 (4-34) days for the oral switch and intravenous antibiotic groups, respectively (p = 0.341). 30-day clinical success was 61% in the oral switch and 48% in the intravenous antibiotic groups (p = 0.349); the median (IQR) hospital LOS for the oral switch and intravenous antibiotic groups was 14 (9-25) days and 16 (9-49) days, respectively (p = 0.165); 30-day mortality was 4% in the oral switch group and 15% in the intravenous antibiotic group (p = 0.193).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>A limited sample of patients who received oral switch antibiotics had similar outcomes to intravenous outpatient treatment of carbapenem-resistant organisms, with a shorter hospital LOS.</p>","PeriodicalId":20013,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacotherapy","volume":" ","pages":"244-250"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143987754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recent European observational studies have shown conflicting results.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>To evaluate the risk of AKI in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who were treated with dapagliflozin compared with sitagliptin.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>We conducted a retrospective cohort study on patients with T2DM who were newly prescribed dapagliflozin or sitagliptin between September 1, 2014, and June 30, 2021, using the nationwide National Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) Service database in Korea. Propensity scores were estimated using a multivariable logistic regression model, and matching was performed at a 1:1 ratio to balance the dapagliflozin and sitagliptin groups. The outcome of interest was the occurrence of AKI hospitalization 90 days post-exposure, captured by a validated algorithm based on the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision (ICD-10) code: N17. Hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a Cox proportional hazards model.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among 94,977 dapagliflozin users matched to sitagliptin users, AKI events occurred in 132 dapagliflozin users versus 198 sitagliptin users, with incidence rates of 2.92 and 8.93 per 1000 person-years, respectively. The risk of AKI events was 34% lower in dapagliflozin users (HR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.53-0.83) compared with sitagliptin users. This protective effect remained consistent in sensitivity analyses.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Contrary to the United States Food and Drug Administration's safety warning, our findings suggest that dapagliflozin may have a protective effect against AKI in patients with T2DM.
