ObjectiveSapropterin dihydrochloride is the first drug for the therapy of phenylketonuria, which is a rare disease that occurs one of 10,000–15,000 newborns. As a result, detailed and comprehensive reports on the safety of sapropterin in large, real-world populations are required. The purpose of this study is to undertake a complete analysis of sapropterin’s adverse events (AEs) using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.MethodsWe retrieved reports of adverse events with sapropterin as the principal suspect from FAERS between the first quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2024. The Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), and Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN) were utilized to detect AE signals.ResultsThe study collected 4,953 suspected AE cases from the FAERS database, with sapropterin as the major suspect. A total of 130 positive signals were obtained utilizing the ROR, PRP, and BCPNN. The FAERS database revealed that common clinical AEs of sapropterin included vomiting, upper respiratory infection, rhinorrhea, and a reduction in amino acid concentrations. Furthermore, we detected probable unexpected adverse events (AEs) using disproportionality analysis, including gastroesophageal reflux disease, flatulence, influenza, ear infection, viral infection, pharyngitis streptococcal, spontaneous abortion, and nephrolithiasis.ConclusionBy analyzing huge amounts of real-world data from the FAERS database, we found potential novel AEs of sapropterin using disproportionate analysis. It is advantageous for healthcare professionals and pharmacists to focus on efficiently managing sapropterin’s high-risk adverse events, improving drug levels in clinical settings, and ensuring patient medication safety. |
