Identification
- Summary
Roflumilast is a selective phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor indicated to decrease the risk of exacerbations in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to treat skin conditions such as plaque psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.
- Brand Names
- Daliresp, Zoryve
- Generic Name
- Roflumilast
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB01656
- Background
Roflumilast is a highly selective phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor.7 PDE4 is a major cyclic-3',5′-adenosinemonophosphate (cyclic AMP, cAMP)-metabolizing enzyme 9 expressed on nearly all immune and pro-inflammatory cells, in addition to structural cells like those of the smooth muscle or epithelium.7 The resultant increase in intracellular cAMP induced by roflumilast's inhibition of PDE4 is thought to mediate its disease-modifying effects, although its precise mechanism of action has yet to be elucidated.9,7
The oral formulation of roflumilast is indicated to manage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.13 It was first approved by the EMA in July 2010, and by the FDA in January 2018.9 Roflumilast topical cream is indicated to treat plaque psoriasis. The cream formulation was first approved by the FDA in July 2022 10 and by Health Canada in April 2023.12 On December 15, 2023, the FDA approved a new topical foam formulation of roflumilast for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in patients aged 9 years and older.15

- Pharmacodynamics
Roflumilast and its active metabolite, roflumilast N-oxide, increase cyclic adenosine-3′, 5′-monophosphate (cAMP) in affected cells by inhibiting PDE4. They are highly selective for PDE4 and are effectively inactive against PDEs 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7.7
- Mechanism of action
Roflumilast and its active metabolite (roflumilast N-oxide) are inhibitors of PDE4. Roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide inhibition of PDE4 (a major cyclic 3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) metabolizing enzyme) activity leads to accumulation of intracellular cyclic AMP. The specific mechanism(s) by which roflumilast exerts its therapeutic action is not well defined.14
Target Actions Organism AcAMP-specific 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitorHumans - Absorption
After a 500mcg dose, the bioavailability of roflumilast is about 80%.9 In the fasted state, maximum plasma concentrations are reached in 0.5 to 2 hours, while in the fed state, Cmax is reduced by 40%, Tmax is increased by one hour, and total absorption is unchanged.9
Applied topically, the mean systemic exposure for roflumilast and its N-oxide metabolite in adults was 72.7 ± 53.1 and 628 ± 648 h∙ng/mL, respectively.10 The mean systemic exposure for roflumilast and its N-oxide metabolite in adolescents was 25.1 ± 24.0 and 140 ± 179 h∙ng/mL, respectively.10
- Volume of distribution
Following a single oral dose of 500 mcg, the volume of distribution of roflumilast is approximately 2.9 L/kg.9
- Protein binding
Plasma protein binding of roflumilast and its N-oxide metabolite is approximately 99% and 97%, respectively.9
- Metabolism
Roflumilast is metabolized to roflumilast N-oxide, the active metabolite of roflumilast in humans, by CYP3A4 and CYP1A2.9 The N-oxide metabolite is less potent than its parent drug in regards to PDE4 inhibition, but its plasma AUC is approximately 10-fold greater.9

- Route of elimination
Roflumilast is excreted 70% in the urine as roflumilast N-oxide.8
- Half-life
Following oral administration, the plasma half-lives of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide are 17 hours and 30 hours, respectively.9
- Clearance
Plasma clearance of roflumilast following short-term intravenous infusion is approximately 9.6 L/h.9

- Toxicity
There are no data regarding overdosage with orally administered roflumilast. Phase I studies in which roflumilast was administered at single doses up to 5000 mcg showed an increase in the incidence of headache, gastrointestinal disorders, dizziness, palpitations, lightheadedness, clamminess, and arterial hypotension.9 In the event of an overdose, administer support medical care as soon as possible. Hemodialysis is unlikely to be of benefit given the extensive protein binding of roflumilast.9

Drug Interaction Integrate drug-drug
interactions in your softwareAbacavir Abacavir may decrease the excretion rate of Roflumilast which could result in a higher serum level. Abametapir The serum concentration of Roflumilast can be increased when it is combined with Abametapir. Abatacept Roflumilast may increase the immunosuppressive activities of Abatacept. Abemaciclib The metabolism of Abemaciclib can be decreased when combined with Roflumilast. Abiraterone The serum concentration of Roflumilast can be increased when it is combined with Abiraterone. - Food Interactions
- Take with or without food. Administering roflumilast with a high-fat meal reduced and delayed the Cmax and Tmax, respectively, but did not impact the AUC of roflumilast or its active metabolite (roflumilast N‐oxide).

- A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of sterols, steroid hormones, retinoids and fatty acids (PubMed:10681376, PubMed:11093772, PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:14559847, PubMed:15373842, PubMed:15764715, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:20702771, PubMed:21490593, PubMed:21576599). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (PubMed:12865317, PubMed:14559847, PubMed:15373842, PubMed:15764715, PubMed:21490593, PubMed:21576599, PubMed:2732228). Exhibits high catalytic activity for the formation of hydroxyestrogens from estrone (E1) and 17beta-estradiol (E2), namely 2-hydroxy E1 and E2, as well as D-ring hydroxylated E1 and E2 at the C-16 position (PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:14559847). Plays a role in the metabolism of androgens, particularly in oxidative deactivation of testosterone (PubMed:15373842, PubMed:15764715, PubMed:22773874, PubMed:2732228). Metabolizes testosterone to less biologically active 2beta- and 6beta-hydroxytestosterones (PubMed:15373842, PubMed:15764715, PubMed:2732228). Contributes to the formation of hydroxycholesterols (oxysterols), particularly A-ring hydroxylated cholesterol at the C-4beta position, and side chain hydroxylated cholesterol at the C-25 position, likely contributing to cholesterol degradation and bile acid biosynthesis (PubMed:21576599). Catalyzes bisallylic hydroxylation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (PubMed:9435160). Catalyzes the epoxidation of double bonds of PUFA with a preference for the last double bond (PubMed:19965576). Metabolizes endocannabinoid arachidonoylethanolamide (anandamide) to 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid ethanolamides (EpETrE-EAs), potentially modulating endocannabinoid system signaling (PubMed:20702771). Plays a role in the metabolism of retinoids. Displays high catalytic activity for oxidation of all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal, a rate-limiting step for the biosynthesis of all-trans-retinoic acid (atRA) (PubMed:10681376). Further metabolizes atRA toward 4-hydroxyretinoate and may play a role in hepatic atRA clearance (PubMed:11093772). Responsible for oxidative metabolism of xenobiotics. Acts as a 2-exo-monooxygenase for plant lipid 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol) (PubMed:11159812). Metabolizes the majority of the administered drugs. Catalyzes sulfoxidation of the anthelmintics albendazole and fenbendazole (PubMed:10759686). Hydroxylates antimalarial drug quinine (PubMed:8968357). Acts as a 1,4-cineole 2-exo-monooxygenase (PubMed:11695850). Also involved in vitamin D catabolism and calcium homeostasis. Catalyzes the inactivation of the active hormone calcitriol (1-alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3)) (PubMed:29461981)

- General Function
- A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of various endogenous substrates, including fatty acids, steroid hormones and vitamins (PubMed:10681376, PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:9435160). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:10681376, PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:9435160). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317). Exhibits high catalytic activity for the formation of hydroxyestrogens from estrone (E1) and 17beta-estradiol (E2), namely 2-hydroxy E1 and E2 (PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317). Metabolizes cholesterol toward 25-hydroxycholesterol, a physiological regulator of cellular cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:21576599). May act as a major enzyme for all-trans retinoic acid biosynthesis in the liver. Catalyzes two successive oxidative transformation of all-trans retinol to all-trans retinal and then to the active form all-trans retinoic acid (PubMed:10681376). Primarily catalyzes stereoselective epoxidation of the last double bond of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), displaying a strong preference for the (R,S) stereoisomer (PubMed:19965576). Catalyzes bisallylic hydroxylation and omega-1 hydroxylation of PUFA (PubMed:9435160). May also participate in eicosanoids metabolism by converting hydroperoxide species into oxo metabolites (lipoxygenase-like reaction, NADPH-independent) (PubMed:21068195). Plays a role in the oxidative metabolism of xenobiotics. Catalyzes the N-hydroxylation of heterocyclic amines and the O-deethylation of phenacetin (PubMed:14725854). Metabolizes caffeine via N3-demethylation (Probable)
