remedyrepack inc. - olanzapine (unii: n7u69t4szr) (olanzapine - unii:n7u69t4szr) - oral olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with schizophrenia: two 6-week trials and one maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with schizophrenia (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 6-week trial  [ see clinical studies ( 14.1)].    when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks  when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see   warnings and precautions ( 5.5) ].  oral olanzapine is indicated for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder and maintenance treatment of bipolar i disorder. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with manic or mixed episodes of bipolar i disorder: two 3- to 4-week trials and one monotherapy maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 3-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.2) ].  when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia.

and precautions ( 5.5) ]. oral olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder as an adjunct to lithium or valproate. efficacy was established in two 6-week clinical trials in adults. the effectiveness of adjunctive therapy for longer-term use has not been systematically evaluated in controlled trials [see clinical studies (14.2) ]. pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are serious mental disorders; however, diagnosis can be challenging. for pediatric schizophrenia, symptom profiles can be variable, and for bipolar i disorder, pediatric patients may have variable patterns of periodicity of manic or mixed symptoms. it is recommended that medication therapy for pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder be

exposure registry there is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to atypical antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by contacting the national pregnancy registry for atypical antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/. risk summary neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery ( see clinical considerations ). overall available data from published epidemiologic studies of pregnant women exposed to olanzapine have not established a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes ( see data ). there are risks to the mother associated with untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder and with exposure to antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy ( see clinical considerations ). olanzapine was not teratogenic when administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits at doses that are 9- and 30-times the daily oral maximum recommended human dose (mrhd), based on mg/m 2 body surface area; some fetal toxicities were observed at these doses ( see data ). the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and embryo/fetal risk there is a risk to the mother from untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder, including increased risk of relapse, hospitalization, and suicide. schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm birth. it is not known if this is a direct result of the illness or other comorbid factors. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress, and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester of pregnancy. these symptoms have varied in severity. monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. data human data placental passage has been reported in published study reports; however, the placental passage ratio was highly variable ranging between 7% to 167% at birth following exposure during pregnancy. the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown. published data from observational studies, birth registries, and case reports that have evaluated the use of atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy do not establish an increased risk of major birth defects. a retrospective cohort study from a medicaid database of 9258 women exposed to antipsychotics during pregnancy did not indicate an overall increased risk for major birth defects. animal data in oral reproduction studies in rats at doses up to 18 mg/kg/day and in rabbits at doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (9 and 30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area, respectively), no evidence of teratogenicity was observed. in an oral rat teratology study, early resorptions and increased numbers of nonviable fetuses were observed at a dose of 18 mg/kg/day (9 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area), and gestation was prolonged at 10 mg/kg/day (5 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). in an oral rabbit teratology study, fetal toxicity manifested as increased resorptions and decreased fetal weight, occurred at a maternally toxic dose of 30 mg/kg/day (30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). risk summary olanzapine is present in human milk. there are reports of excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements) in infants exposed to olanzapine through breast milk ( see clinical considerations ). there is no information on the effects of olanzapine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for olanzapine and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from olanzapine or from the mother’s underlying condition. clinical considerations infants exposed to olanzapine should be monitored for excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding, and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements). infertility females based on the pharmacologic action of olanzapine (d 2 receptor antagonism), treatment with olanzapine may result in an increase in serum prolactin levels, which may lead to a reversible reduction in fertility in females of reproductive potential [see warnings and precautions (5.15 )]. the safety and effectiveness of oral olanzapine in the treatment of schizophrenia and manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder were established in short-term studies in adolescents (ages 13 to 17 years). use of olanzapine in adolescents is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies of olanzapine in which 268 adolescents received olanzapine in a range of 2.5 to 20 mg/day [see clinical studies ( 14.1, 14.2 ) ]. recommended starting dose for adolescents is lower than that for adults [see dosage and administration ( 2.1, 2.2) ]. compared to patients from adult clinical trials, adolescents were likely to gain more weight, experience increased sedation, and have greater increases in total cholesterol, triglycerides, ldl cholesterol, prolactin and hepatic aminotransferase levels [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5, 5.15, 5.17 ) and adverse reactions (6.1) ]. when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see indications and usage ( 1.1, 1.2) ].  safety and effectiveness of olanzapine in children <13 years of age have not been established [see patient counseling information ( 17) ]. safety and efficacy of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children and adolescents (10 to 17 years of age) have been established for the acute treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder. safety and effectiveness of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children <10 years of age have not been established.   of the 2500 patients in premarketing clinical studies with oral olanzapine, 11% (263) were 65 years of age or over. in patients with schizophrenia, there was no indication of any different tolerability of olanzapine in the elderly compared to younger patients. studies in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis have suggested that there may be a different tolerability profile in this population compared to younger patients with schizophrenia. elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. in placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis, there was a higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse events (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack) in patients treated with olanzapine compared to patients treated with placebo. in 5 placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (n=1184), the following adverse reactions were reported in olanzapine-treated patients at an incidence of at least 2% and significantly greater than placebo-treated patients: falls, somnolence, peripheral edema, abnormal gait, urinary incontinence, lethargy, increased weight, asthenia, pyrexia, pneumonia, dry mouth and visual hallucinations. the rate of discontinuation due to adverse reactions was greater with olanzapine than placebo (13% vs 7%). elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [ see boxed warning, warnings and precautions (5.1), and patient counseling information (17)] . olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis. also, the presence of factors that might decrease pharmacokinetic clearance or increase the pharmacodynamic response to olanzapine should lead to consideration of a lower starting dose for any geriatric patient [ see boxed warning, dosage and administration (2.1), and warnings and precautions (5.1)] .   clinical studies of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination did not include sufficient numbers of patients ≥65 years of age to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. in studies prospectively designed to assess abuse and dependence potential, olanzapine was shown to have acute depressive cns effects but little or no potential of abuse or physical dependence in rats administered oral doses up to 15 times the daily oral mrhd (20 mg) and rhesus monkeys administered oral doses up to 8 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area.  olanzapine has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse, tolerance, or physical dependence. while the clinical trials did not reveal any tendency for any drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic, and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which a cns-active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed closely for signs of misuse or abuse of olanzapine (e.g., development of tolerance, increases in dose, drug-seeking behavior).

fetuses were observed at a dose of 18 mg/kg/day (9 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area), and gestation was prolonged at 10 mg/kg/day (5 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). in an oral rabbit teratology study, fetal toxicity manifested as increased resorptions and decreased fetal weight, occurred at a maternally toxic dose of 30 mg/kg/day (30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). risk summary olanzapine is present in human milk. there are reports of excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements) in infants exposed to olanzapine through breast milk ( see clinical considerations ). there is no information on the effects of olanzapine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for olanzapine and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from olanzapine or from the mother’s underlying condition. clinical considerations infants exposed to olanzapine should be monitored for excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding, and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements). infertility females based on the pharmacologic action of olanzapine (d 2 receptor antagonism), treatment with olanzapine may result in an increase in serum prolactin levels, which may lead to a reversible reduction in fertility in females of reproductive potential [see warnings and precautions (5.15 )]. the safety and effectiveness of oral olanzapine in the treatment of schizophrenia and manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder were established in short-term studies in adolescents (ages 13 to 17 years). use of olanzapine in adolescents is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies of olanzapine in which 268 adolescents received olanzapine in a range of 2.5 to 20 mg/day [see clinical studies ( 14.1, 14.2 ) ]. recommended starting dose for adolescents is lower than that for adults [see dosage and administration ( 2.1, 2.2) ]. compared to patients from adult clinical trials, adolescents were likely to gain more weight, experience increased sedation, and have greater increases in total cholesterol, triglycerides, ldl cholesterol, prolactin and hepatic aminotransferase levels [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5, 5.15, 5.17 ) and adverse reactions (6.1) ]. when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see indications and usage ( 1.1, 1.2) ].  safety and effectiveness of olanzapine in children <13 years of age have not been established [see patient counseling information ( 17) ]. safety and efficacy of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children and adolescents (10 to 17 years of age) have been established for the acute treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder. safety and effectiveness of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children <10 years of age have not been established.   of the 2500 patients in premarketing clinical studies with oral olanzapine, 11% (263) were 65 years of age or over. in patients with schizophrenia, there was no indication of any different tolerability of olanzapine in the elderly compared to younger patients. studies in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis have suggested that there may be a different tolerability profile in this population compared to younger patients with schizophrenia. elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. in placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis, there was a higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse events (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack) in patients treated with olanzapine compared to patients treated with placebo. in 5 placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (n=1184), the following adverse reactions were reported in olanzapine-treated patients at an incidence of at least 2% and significantly greater than placebo-treated patients: falls, somnolence, peripheral edema, abnormal gait, urinary incontinence, lethargy, increased weight, asthenia, pyrexia, pneumonia, dry mouth and visual hallucinations. the rate of discontinuation due to adverse reactions was greater with olanzapine than placebo (13% vs 7%). elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [ see boxed warning, warnings and precautions (5.1), and patient counseling information (17)] . olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis. also, the presence of factors that might decrease pharmacokinetic clearance or increase the pharmacodynamic response to olanzapine should lead to consideration of a lower starting dose for any geriatric patient [ see boxed warning, dosage and administration (2.1), and warnings and precautions (5.1)] .   clinical studies of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination did not include sufficient numbers of patients ≥65 years of age to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. in studies prospectively designed to assess abuse and dependence potential, olanzapine was shown to have acute depressive cns effects but little or no potential of abuse or physical dependence in rats administered oral doses up to 15 times the daily oral mrhd (20 mg) and rhesus monkeys administered oral doses up to 8 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area.  olanzapine has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse, tolerance, or physical dependence. while the clinical trials did not reveal any tendency for any drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic, and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which a cns-active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed closely for signs of misuse or abuse of olanzapine (e.g., development of tolerance, increases in dose, drug-seeking behavior).

olanzapine tablet, film coated

remedyrepack inc. - olanzapine (unii: n7u69t4szr) (olanzapine - unii:n7u69t4szr) - oral olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with schizophrenia: two 6-week trials and one maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with schizophrenia (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 6-week trial  [ see clinical studies ( 14.1)].    when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks  when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see   warnings and precautions ( 5.5) ].  oral olanzapine is indicated for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder and maintenance treatment of bipolar i disorder. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with manic or mixed episodes of bipolar i disorder: two 3- to 4-week trials and one monotherapy maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 3-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.2) ].  when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them  to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5) ]. oral olanzapine is indicated for the treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder as an adjunct to lithium or valproate. efficacy was established in two 6-week clinical trials in adults. the effectiveness of adjunctive therapy for longer-term use has not been systematically evaluated in controlled trials [see clinical studies (14.2) ]. pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are serious mental disorders; however, diagnosis can be challenging. for pediatric schizophrenia, symptom profiles can be variable, and for bipolar i disorder, pediatric patients may have variable patterns of periodicity of manic or mixed symptoms. it is recommended that medication therapy for pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder be initiated only after a thorough diagnostic evaluation has been performed and careful consideration given to the risks associated with medication treatment. medication treatment for both pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder should be part of a total treatment program that often includes psychological, educational and social interventions. oral olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination is indicated for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder, based on clinical studies. when using olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination, refer to the clinical studies section of the package insert for symbyax. olanzapine monotheraphy is not indicated for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder. oral olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination is indicated for the treatment of treatment resistant depression (major depressive disorder in patients who do not respond to 2 separate trials of different antidepressants of adequate dose and duration in the current episode), based on clinical studies in adult patients. when using olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination, refer to the clinical studies section of the package insert

exposure registry there is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to atypical antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by contacting the national pregnancy registry for atypical antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/. risk summary neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery ( see clinical considerations ). overall available data from published epidemiologic studies of pregnant women exposed to olanzapine have not established a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes ( see data ). there are risks to the mother associated with untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder and with exposure to antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy ( see clinical considerations ). olanzapine was not teratogenic when administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits at doses that are 9- and 30-times the daily oral maximum recommended human dose (mrhd), based on mg/m 2 body surface area; some fetal toxicities were observed at these doses ( see data ). the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and embryo/fetal risk there is a risk to the mother from untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder, including increased risk of relapse, hospitalization, and suicide. schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm birth. it is not known if this is a direct result of the illness or other comorbid factors. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress, and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester of pregnancy. these symptoms have varied in severity. monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. data human data placental passage has been reported in published study reports; however, the placental passage ratio was highly variable ranging between 7% to 167% at birth following exposure during pregnancy. the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown. published data from observational studies, birth registries, and case reports that have evaluated the use of atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy do not establish an increased risk of major birth defects. a retrospective cohort study from a medicaid database of 9258 women exposed to antipsychotics during pregnancy did not indicate an overall increased risk for major birth defects. animal data in oral reproduction studies in rats at doses up to 18 mg/kg/day and in rabbits at doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (9 and 30 times the

OMEPRAZOLE capsule, delayed release মার্কিন যুক্তরাষ্ট্র - ইংরেজি - NLM (National Library of Medicine)

omeprazole capsule, delayed release

remedyrepack inc. - omeprazole (unii: kg60484qx9) (omeprazole - unii:kg60484qx9) - omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for short-term treatment of active duodenal ulcer in adults. most patients heal within four weeks. some patients may require an additional four weeks of therapy. eradication of h. pylori has been shown to reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer recurrence. triple therapy omeprazole delayed-release capsules in combination with clarithromycin and amoxicillin, is indicated for treatment of patients with h. pylori infection and duodenal ulcer disease (active or up to 1-year history) to eradicate h. pylori in adults. dual therapy omeprazole delayed-release capsules in combination with clarithromycin are indicated for treatment of patients with h. pylori infection and duodenal ulcer disease to eradicate h. pylori in adults. among patients who fail therapy, omeprazole delayed-release capsules with clarithromycin is more likely to be associated with the development of clarithromycin resistance as compared with triple therapy. in patients who fail therapy, susceptibility testing should be done. if resistance to clarithromycin is demonstrated or susceptibility testing is not possible, alternative antimicrobial therapy should be instituted [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.4) and the clarithromycin prescribing information, microbiology sectio n]. omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for short-term treatment (4 to 8 weeks) of active benign gastric ulcer in adults. omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for the treatment of heartburn and other symptoms associated with gerd for up to 4 weeks in patients 2 years of age and older. pediatric patients 2 years of age to adults omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for the short-term treatment (4 to 8 weeks) of ee due to acid-mediated gerd that has been diagnosed by endoscopy in patients 2 years of age and older. the efficacy of omeprazole delayed-release capsules used for longer than 8 weeks in patients with ee has not been established. if a patient does not respond to 8 weeks of treatment, an additional 4 weeks of treatment may be given. if there is recurrence of ee or gerd symptoms (e.g., heartburn), additional 4 to 8 week courses of omeprazole delayed-release capsules may be considered. omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for the maintenance healing of ee due to acid-mediated gerd in patients 2 years of age and older. controlled studies do not extend beyond 12 months. omeprazole delayed-release capsules are indicated for the long-term treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions (e.g., zollinger-ellison syndrome, multiple endocrine adenomas and systemic mastocytosis) in adults. - omeprazole delay-release capsules are contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis to the formulation or any substituted benzimidazol. hypersensitivity reactions may include anaphylaxis, anaphylactic shock, angioedema, bronchospasm, acute tubulointerstitial nephritis, and urticaria [see warnings and precautions ( 5.2), adverse reactions ( 6)] . - proton pump inhibitors (ppis), including omeprazole, are contraindicated in patients receiving rilpivirine-containing products [see drug interactions ( 7)]. - for information about contraindications of antibacterial agents (clarithromycin and amoxicillin) indicated in combination with omeprazole, refer to the contraindications section of their package inserts. risk summary there are no adequate and well-controlled studies with omeprazole in pregnant women. available epidemiologic data fail to demonstrate an increased risk of major congenital malformations or other adverse pregnancy outcomes with first trimester omeprazole use. reproduction studies in rats and rabbits resulted in dose-dependent embryo-lethality at omeprazole doses that were approximately 3.4 to 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg (based on a body surface area for a 60 kg person). teratogenicity was not observed in animal reproduction studies with administration of oral esomeprazole (an enantiomer of omeprazole) magnesium in rats and rabbits during organogenesis with doses about 68 times and 42 times, respectively, an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole (based on body surface area for a 60 kg person). changes in bone morphology were observed in offspring of rats dosed through most of pregnancy and lactation at doses equal to or greater than approximately 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole. when maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age [see data]. the estimated background risks of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. data human data four published epidemiological studies compared the frequency of congenital abnormalities among infants born to women who used omeprazole during pregnancy with the frequency of abnormalities among infants of women exposed to h 2 -receptor antagonists or other controls. a population-based retrospective cohort epidemiological study from the swedish medical birth registry, covering approximately 99% of pregnancies, from 1995 to 99, reported on 955 infants (824 exposed during the first trimester with 39 of these exposed beyond first trimester, and 131 exposed after the first trimester) whose mothers used omeprazole during pregnancy. the number of infants exposed in utero to omeprazole that had any malformation, low birth weight, low apgar score, or hospitalization was similar to the number observed in this population. the number of infants born with ventricular septal defects and the number of stillborn infants was slightly higher in the omeprazole-exposed infants than the expected number in this population. a population-based retrospective cohort study covering all live births in denmark from 1996 to 2009, reported on 1,800 live births whose mothers used omeprazole during the first trimester of pregnancy and 837,317 live births whose mothers did not use any proton pump inhibitor. the overall rate of birth defects in infants born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole was 2.9% and 2.6% in infants born to mothers not exposed to any proton pump inhibitor during the first trimester. a retrospective cohort study reported on 689 pregnant women exposed to either h 2 -blockers or omeprazole in the first trimester (134 exposed to omeprazole) and 1,572 pregnant women unexposed to either during the first trimester. the overall malformation rate in offspring born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole, an h 2 -blocker, or were unexposed was 3.6%, 5.5%, and 4.1% respectively. a small prospective observational cohort study followed 113 women exposed to omeprazole during pregnancy (89% with first trimester exposures). the reported rate of major congenital malformations was 4% in the omeprazole group, 2% in controls exposed to non-teratogens, and 2.8% in disease-paired controls. rates of spontaneous and elective abortions, preterm deliveries, gestational age at delivery, and mean birth weight were similar among the groups. several studies have reported no apparent adverse short-term effects on the infant when single dose oral or intravenous omeprazole was administered to over 200 pregnant women as premedication for cesarean section under general anesthesia. animal data omeprazole reproductive studies conducted with omeprazole in rats at oral doses up to 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) and in rabbits at doses up to 69.1 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) during organogenesis did not disclose any evidence for a teratogenic potential of omeprazole. in rabbits, omeprazole in a dose range of 6.9 to 69.1 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) administered during organogenesis produced dose-related increases in embryo-lethality, fetal resorptions, and pregnancy disruptions. in rats, dose-related embryo/fetal toxicity and postnatal developmental toxicity were observed in offspring resulting from parents treated with omeprazole at 13.8 to 138 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 34 times an oral human doses of 40 mg on a body surface area basis), administered prior to mating through the lactation period. esomeprazole the data described below was generated from studies using esomeprazole, an enantiomer of omeprazole. the animal to human dose multiples are based on the assumption of equal systemic exposure to esomeprazole in humans following oral administration of either 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole. no effects on embryo-fetal development were observed in reproduction studies with esomeprazole magnesium in rats at oral doses up to 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) or in rabbits at oral doses up to 86 mg/kg/day (about 42 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis) administered during organogenesis. a pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity study in rats with additional endpoints to evaluate bone development was performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). neonatal/early postnatal (birth to weaning) survival was decreased at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). body weight and body weight gain were reduced and neurobehavioral or general developmental delays in the immediate post-weaning timeframe were evident at doses equal to or greater than 69 mg/kg/day (about 17 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). in addition, decreased femur length, width and thickness of cortical bone, decreased thickness of the tibial growth plate and minimal to mild bone marrow hypocellularity were noted at doses equal to or greater than 14 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). physeal dysplasia in the femur was observed in offspring of rats treated with oral doses of esomeprazole magnesium at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). effects on maternal bone were observed in pregnant and lactating rats in the pre- and postnatal toxicity study when esomeprazole magnesium was administered at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). when rats were dosed from gestational day 7 through weaning on postnatal day 21, a statistically significant decrease in maternal femur weight of up to 14% (as compared to placebo treatment) was observed at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). a pre- and postnatal development study in rats with esomeprazole strontium (using equimolar doses compared to esomeprazole magnesium study) produced similar results in dams and pups as described above. a follow up developmental toxicity study in rats with further time points to evaluate pup bone development from postnatal day 2 to adulthood was performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) where esomeprazole administration was from either gestational day 7 or gestational day 16 until parturition. when maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age. risk summary limited data suggest omeprazole may be present in human milk. there are no clinical data on the effects of omeprazole on the breastfed infant or on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for omeprazole and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from omeprazole or from the underlying maternal condition. the safety and effectiveness of omeprazole have been established in pediatric patients 2 to 16 years for the treatment of symptomatic gerd, treatment of ee due to acid-mediated gerd, and maintenance of healing of ee due to acid-mediated gerd. use of omeprazole in this age group is supported by adequate and well-controlled studies in adults and uncontrolled safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic studies performed in pediatric and adolescent patients [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3), clinical studies ( 14.8)]. in the pediatric population, adverse reactions of the respiratory system were frequently reported in the entire (2 to 16 year) age group. accidental injuries were frequently reported in the 2 to 16 year age group [see adverse reactions ( 6.1)]. the safety and effectiveness of omeprazole delayed-release capsules have not been established in:  - patients less than 1 year of age for: treatment of symptomatic gerd maintenance of healing of ee due to acid-mediated gerd - treatment of symptomatic gerd - maintenance of healing of ee due to acid-mediated gerd - pediatric patients for: treatment of active duodenal ulcer h. pylori eradication to reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer recurrence treatment of active benign gastric ulcer pathological hypersecretory conditions - treatment of active duodenal ulcer - h. pylori eradication to reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer recurrence - treatment of active benign gastric ulcer - pathological hypersecretory conditions - patients less than 1 month of age for any indication. juvenile animal data esomeprazole, an enantiomer of omeprazole, was shown to decrease body weight, body weight gain, femur weight, femur length, and overall growth at oral doses about 34 to 68 times a daily human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole based on body surface area in a juvenile rat toxicity study. the animal to human dose multiples are based on the assumption of equal systemic exposure to esomeprazole in humans following oral administration of either 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole. a 28-day toxicity study with a 14-day recovery phase was conducted in juvenile rats with esomeprazole magnesium at doses of 70 to 280 mg/kg/day (about 17 to 68 times a daily oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis). an increase in the number of deaths at the high dose of 280 mg/kg/day was observed when juvenile rats were administered esomeprazole magnesium from postnatal day 7 through postnatal day 35. in addition, doses equal to or greater than 140 mg/kg/day (about 34 times a daily oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis), produced treatment-related decreases in body weight (approximately 14%) and body weight gain, decreases in femur weight and femur length, and affected overall growth. comparable findings described above have also been observed in this study with another esomeprazole salt, esomeprazole strontium, at equimolar doses of esomeprazole. omeprazole was administered to over 2000 elderly individuals (≥ 65 years of age) in clinical trials in the u.s. and europe. there were no differences in safety and effectiveness between the elderly and younger subjects. other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in response between the elderly and younger subjects, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. pharmacokinetic studies have shown the elimination rate was somewhat decreased in the elderly and bioavailability was increased. the plasma clearance of omeprazole was 250 ml/min (about half that of young volunteers) and its plasma half-life averaged one hour, about twice that of young healthy volunteers. however, no dosage adjustment is necessary in the elderly [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)] . in patients with hepatic impairment (child-pugh class a, b, or c) exposure to omeprazole substantially increased compared to healthy subjects. dosage reduction of omeprazole to 10 mg once daily is recommended for patients with hepatic impairment for maintenance of healing of ee [see dosage and administration ( 2.1), clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)] . in studies of healthy subjects, asians had approximately a four-fold higher exposure than caucasians. dosage reduction of omeprazole to 10 mg once daily is recommended for asian patients for maintenance of healing of ee [see dosage and administration ( 2.1) , clinical pharmacology ( 12.5)] . omeprazole delayed-release capsules, usp (oh mep’ ra zole) omeprazole delayed-release capsules taking omeprazole delayed-release capsules with applesauce: - place 1 tablespoon of applesauce into a clean container. - carefully open the capsule and sprinkle the pellets onto the applesauce. mix the pellets with the applesauce. - swallow the applesauce and pellet mixture right away. do not chew or crush the pellets. do not store the applesauce and pellet mixture for later use.

remedyrepack inc. - olanzapine (unii: n7u69t4szr) (olanzapine - unii:n7u69t4szr) - oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with schizophrenia: two 6-week trials and one maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with schizophrenia (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 6-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.1)] . when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5)]. monotherapy — oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder and maintenance treatment of bipolar i disorder. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with manic or mixed episodes of bipolar i disorder: two 3- to 4-week trials and one monotherapy maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 3-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.2)]. when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5)]. adjunctive therapy to lithium or valproate — oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder as an adjunct to lithium or valproate. efficacy was established in two 6-week clinical trials in adults. the effectiveness of adjunctive therapy for longer-term use has not been systematically evaluated in controlled trials [see clinical studies ( 14.2)]. pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are serious mental disorders; however, diagnosis can be challenging. for pediatric schizophrenia, symptom profiles can be variable, and for bipolar i disorder, pediatric patients may have variable patterns of periodicity of manic or mixed symptoms. it is recommended that medication therapy for pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder be initiated only after a thorough diagnostic evaluation has been performed and careful consideration given to the risks associated with medication treatment. medication treatment for both pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder should be part of a total treatment program that often includes psychological,

pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to atypical antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by contacting the national pregnancy registry for atypical antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/.   risk summary neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery (see clinical considerations). overall available data from published epidemiologic studies of pregnant women exposed to olanzapine have not established a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes (see data). there are risks to the mother associated with untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder and with exposure to antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy (see clinical considerations) . olanzapine was not teratogenic when administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits at doses that are 9- and 30-times the daily oral maximum recommended human dose (mrhd), based on mg/m 2 body surface area; some fetal toxicities were observed at these doses (see data). the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and embryo/fetal risk there is a risk to the mother from untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder, including increased risk of relapse, hospitalization, and suicide. schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm birth. it is not known if this is a direct result of the illness or other comorbid factors. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress, and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester of pregnancy. these symptoms have varied in severity. monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. data human data placental passage has been reported in published study reports; however, the placental passage ratio was highly variable ranging between 7% to 167% at birth following exposure during pregnancy. the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown. published data from observational studies, birth registries, and case reports that have evaluated the use of atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy do not establish an increased risk of major birth defects. a retrospective cohort study from a medicaid database of 9258 women exposed to antipsychotics during pregnancy did not indicate an overall increased risk for major birth defects. animal data in oral reproduction studies in rats at doses up to 18 mg/kg/day and in rabbits at doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (9 and 30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area, respectively), no evidence of teratogenicity was observed. in an oral rat teratology study, early resorptions and increased numbers of nonviable fetuses were observed at a dose of 18 mg/kg/day (9 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area), and gestation was prolonged at 10 mg/kg/day (5 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). in an oral rabbit teratology study, fetal toxicity manifested as increased resorptions and decreased fetal weight, occurred at a maternally toxic dose of 30 mg/kg/day (30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). risk summary olanzapine is present in human milk. there are reports of excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements) in infants exposed to olanzapine through breast milk (see clinical considerations). there is no information on the effects of olanzapine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for olanzapine and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from olanzapine or from the mother’s underlying condition.   clinical considerations infants exposed to olanzapine should be monitored for excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding, and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements). infertility females based on the pharmacologic action of olanzapine (d 2  receptor antagonism), treatment with olanzapine tablets may result in an increase in serum prolactin levels, which may lead to a reversible reduction in fertility in females of reproductive potential [see warnings and precautions ( 5.15)]. the safety and effectiveness of oral olanzapine in the treatment of schizophrenia and manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder were established in short-term studies in adolescents (ages 13 to 17 years). use of olanzapine in adolescents is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies of olanzapine in which 268 adolescents received olanzapine in a range of 2.5 to 20 mg/day [see clinical studies ( 14.1, 14.2)] . recommended starting dose for adolescents is lower than that for adults [see dosage and administration ( 2.1, 2.2)] . compared to patients from adult clinical trials, adolescents were likely to gain more weight, experience increased sedation, and have greater increases in total cholesterol, triglycerides, ldl cholesterol, prolactin and hepatic aminotransferase levels [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5, 5.15, 5.17) and adverse reactions ( 6.1)] . when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see indications and usage ( 1.1, 1.2)] . safety and effectiveness of olanzapine in children <13 years of age have not been established [see patient counseling information ( 17)]. safety and efficacy of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children and adolescents (10 to 17 years of age) have been established for the acute treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder. safety and effectiveness of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children <10 years of age have not been established. of the 2500 patients in premarketing clinical studies with oral olanzapine, 11% (263) were 65 years of age or over. in patients with schizophrenia, there was no indication of any different tolerability of olanzapine in the elderly compared to younger patients. studies in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis have suggested that there may be a different tolerability profile in this population compared to younger patients with schizophrenia. elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. in placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis, there was a higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse events (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack) in patients treated with olanzapine compared to patients treated with placebo. in 5 placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (n=1184), the following adverse reactions were reported in olanzapine-treated patients at an incidence of at least 2% and significantly greater than placebo-treated patients: falls, somnolence, peripheral edema, abnormal gait, urinary incontinence, lethargy, increased weight, asthenia, pyrexia, pneumonia, dry mouth and visual hallucinations. the rate of discontinuation due to adverse reactions was greater with olanzapine than placebo (13% vs 7%). elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see boxed warning, warnings and precautions ( 5.1), and patient counseling information ( 17)] . olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis. also, the presence of factors that might decrease pharmacokinetic clearance or increase the pharmacodynamic response to olanzapine should lead to consideration of a lower starting dose for any geriatric patient [see boxed warning, dosage and administration ( 2.1), and warnings and precautions ( 5.1)] . clinical studies of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination did not include sufficient numbers of patients ≥65 years of age to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. in studies prospectively designed to assess abuse and dependence potential, olanzapine was shown to have acute depressive cns effects but little or no potential of abuse or physical dependence in rats administered oral doses up to 15 times the daily oral mrhd (20 mg) and rhesus monkeys administered oral doses up to 8 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area. olanzapine has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse, tolerance, or physical dependence. while the clinical trials did not reveal any tendency for any drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic, and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which a cns-active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed closely for signs of misuse or abuse of olanzapine (e.g., development of tolerance, increases in dose, drug-seeking behavior).

encouraged to register patients by contacting the national pregnancy registry for atypical antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/. risk summary neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery ( see clinical considerations ). overall available data from published epidemiologic studies of pregnant women exposed to olanzapine have not established a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes ( see data ). there are risks to the mother associated with untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder and with exposure to antipsychotics, including olanzapine, during pregnancy ( see clinical considerations ). olanzapine was not teratogenic when administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits at doses that are 9- and 30-times the daily oral maximum recommended human dose (mrhd), based on mg/m 2 body surface area; some fetal toxicities were observed at these doses ( see data ). the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and embryo/fetal risk there is a risk to the mother from untreated schizophrenia or bipolar i disorder, including increased risk of relapse, hospitalization, and suicide. schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm birth. it is not known if this is a direct result of the illness or other comorbid factors. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress, and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs, including olanzapine, during the third trimester of pregnancy. these symptoms have varied in severity. monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. data human data placental passage has been reported in published study reports; however, the placental passage ratio was highly variable ranging between 7% to 167% at birth following exposure during pregnancy. the clinical relevance of this finding is unknown. published data from observational studies, birth registries, and case reports that have evaluated the use of atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy do not establish an increased risk of major birth defects. a retrospective cohort study from a medicaid database of 9258 women exposed to antipsychotics during pregnancy did not indicate an overall increased risk for major birth defects. animal data in oral reproduction studies in rats at doses up to 18 mg/kg/day and in rabbits at doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (9 and 30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area, respectively), no evidence of teratogenicity was observed. in an oral rat teratology study, early resorptions and increased numbers of nonviable fetuses were observed at a dose of 18 mg/kg/day (9 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area), and gestation was prolonged at 10 mg/kg/day (5 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). in an oral rabbit teratology study, fetal toxicity manifested as increased resorptions and decreased fetal weight, occurred at a maternally toxic dose of 30 mg/kg/day (30 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area). risk summary olanzapine is present in human milk. there are reports of excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements) in infants exposed to olanzapine through breast milk ( see clinical considerations ). there is no information on the effects of olanzapine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for olanzapine and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from olanzapine or from the mother’s underlying condition. clinical considerations infants exposed to olanzapine should be monitored for excess sedation, irritability, poor feeding, and extrapyramidal symptoms (tremors and abnormal muscle movements). infertility females based on the pharmacologic action of olanzapine (d 2 receptor antagonism), treatment with olanzapine may result in an increase in serum prolactin levels, which may lead to a reversible reduction in fertility in females of reproductive potential [see warnings and precautions (5.15 )]. the safety and effectiveness of oral olanzapine in the treatment of schizophrenia and manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder were established in short-term studies in adolescents (ages 13 to 17 years). use of olanzapine in adolescents is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies of olanzapine in which 268 adolescents received olanzapine in a range of 2.5 to 20 mg/day [see clinical studies ( 14.1, 14.2 ) ]. recommended starting dose for adolescents is lower than that for adults [see dosage and administration ( 2.1, 2.2) ]. compared to patients from adult clinical trials, adolescents were likely to gain more weight, experience increased sedation, and have greater increases in total cholesterol, triglycerides, ldl cholesterol, prolactin and hepatic aminotransferase levels [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5, 5.15, 5.17 ) and adverse reactions (6.1) ]. when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see indications and usage ( 1.1, 1.2) ].  safety and effectiveness of olanzapine in children <13 years of age have not been established [see patient counseling information ( 17) ]. safety and efficacy of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children and adolescents (10 to 17 years of age) have been established for the acute treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder. safety and effectiveness of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination in children <10 years of age have not been established.   of the 2500 patients in premarketing clinical studies with oral olanzapine, 11% (263) were 65 years of age or over. in patients with schizophrenia, there was no indication of any different tolerability of olanzapine in the elderly compared to younger patients. studies in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis have suggested that there may be a different tolerability profile in this population compared to younger patients with schizophrenia. elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. in placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis, there was a higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse events (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack) in patients treated with olanzapine compared to patients treated with placebo. in 5 placebo-controlled studies of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis (n=1184), the following adverse reactions were reported in olanzapine-treated patients at an incidence of at least 2% and significantly greater than placebo-treated patients: falls, somnolence, peripheral edema, abnormal gait, urinary incontinence, lethargy, increased weight, asthenia, pyrexia, pneumonia, dry mouth and visual hallucinations. the rate of discontinuation due to adverse reactions was greater with olanzapine than placebo (13% vs 7%). elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with olanzapine are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see boxed warning, warnings and precautions ( 5.1), and patient counseling information ( 17)]. olanzapine is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis. also, the presence of factors that might decrease pharmacokinetic clearance or increase the pharmacodynamic response to olanzapine should lead to consideration of a lower starting dose for any geriatric patient [see boxed warning, warnings and precautions (5.1), and dosage and administration (2.1) ].  clinical studies of olanzapine and fluoxetine in combination did not include sufficient numbers of patients ≥65 years of age to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. in studies prospectively designed to assess abuse and dependence potential, olanzapine was shown to have acute depressive cns effects but little or no potential of abuse or physical dependence in rats administered oral doses up to 15 times the daily oral mrhd (20 mg) and rhesus monkeys administered oral doses up to 8 times the daily oral mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area.  olanzapine has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse, tolerance, or physical dependence. while the clinical trials did not reveal any tendency for any drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic, and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which a cns-active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed closely for signs of misuse or abuse of olanzapine (e.g., development of tolerance, increases in dose, drug-seeking behavior).

olanzapine tablet, film coated

remedyrepack inc. - olanzapine (unii: n7u69t4szr) (olanzapine - unii:n7u69t4szr) - oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with schizophrenia: two 6-week trials and one maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with schizophrenia (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 6-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.1)] . when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5)]. monotherapy — oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the acute treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder and maintenance treatment of bipolar i disorder. efficacy was established in three clinical trials in adult patients with manic or mixed episodes of bipolar i disorder: two 3- to 4-week trials and one monotherapy maintenance trial. in adolescent patients with manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder (ages 13 to 17), efficacy was established in one 3-week trial [see clinical studies ( 14.2)]. when deciding among the alternative treatments available for adolescents, clinicians should consider the increased potential (in adolescents as compared with adults) for weight gain and dyslipidemia. clinicians should consider the potential long-term risks when prescribing to adolescents, and in many cases this may lead them to consider prescribing other drugs first in adolescents [see warnings and precautions ( 5.5)]. adjunctive therapy to lithium or valproate — oral olanzapine tablets are indicated for the treatment of manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar i disorder as an adjunct to lithium or valproate. efficacy was established in two 6-week clinical trials in adults. the effectiveness of adjunctive therapy for longer-term use has not been systematically evaluated in controlled trials [see clinical studies ( 14.2)]. pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder are serious mental disorders; however, diagnosis can be challenging. for pediatric schizophrenia, symptom profiles can be variable, and for bipolar i disorder, pediatric patients may have variable patterns of periodicity of manic or mixed symptoms. it is recommended that medication therapy for pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder be initiated only after a thorough diagnostic evaluation has been performed and careful consideration given to the risks associated with medication treatment. medication treatment for both pediatric schizophrenia and bipolar i disorder should be part of a total treatment program that often includes psychological, educational and social interventions. oral olanzapine tablets and fluoxetine in combination is indicated for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar i disorder, based on clinical studies. when using olanzapine tablets and fluoxetine in combination, refer to the clinical studies section of the package insert for symbyax. olanzapine tablets monotherapy is not indicated for the
