golden state medical supply, inc. - febuxostat (unii: 101v0r1n2e) (febuxostat - unii:101v0r1n2e) - febuxostat tablets are a xanthine oxidase (xo) inhibitor indicated for the chronic management of hyperuricemia in adult patients with gout who have an inadequate response to a maximally titrated dose of allopurinol, who are intolerant to allopurinol, or for whom treatment with allopurinol is not advisable. limitations of use: febuxostat tablets are not recommended for the treatment of asymptomatic hyperuricemia. febuxostat tablets are contraindicated in patients being treated with azathioprine or mercaptopurine [see drug interactions ( 7)] . risk summary: limited available data with febuxostat use in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes. no adverse developmental effects were observed in embryo-fetal development studies with oral administration of febuxostat to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses that produced maternal exposures up to 40 and 51 times, respectively, the exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd). no adverse developmental effects were observed in a pre- and postnatal development study with administration of febuxostat to pregnant rats from organogenesis through lactation at an exposure approximately 11 times the mrhd (see data). the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. in the us 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: animal data : in an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats dosed during the period of organogenesis from gestation days 7 to 17, febuxostat was not teratogenic and did not affect fetal development or survival at exposures up to approximately 40 times the mrhd (on an auc basis at maternal oral doses up to 48 mg/kg/day). in an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rabbits dosed during the period of organogenesis from gestation days 6 to 18, febuxostat was not teratogenic and did not affect fetal development at exposures up to approximately 51 times the mrhd (on an auc basis at maternal oral doses up to 48 mg/kg/day). in a pre- and postnatal development study in pregnant female rats dosed orally from gestation day 7 through lactation day 20, febuxostat had no effects on delivery or growth and development of offspring at a dose approximately 11 times the mrhd (on an auc basis at a maternal oral dose of 12 mg/kg/day). however, increased neonatal mortality and a reduction in neonatal body weight gain were observed in the presence of maternal toxicity at a dose approximately 40 times the mrhd (on an auc basis at a maternal oral dose of 48 mg/kg/day). febuxostat crossed the placental barrier following oral administration to pregnant rats and was detected in fetal tissues. risk summary: there are no data on the presence of febuxostat in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. febuxostat is present in rat milk. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for febuxostat and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from febuxostat or from the underlying maternal condition. data: animal data : orally administered febuxostat was detected in the milk of lactating rats at up to approximately 7 times the plasma concentration. safety and effectiveness of febuxostat in pediatric patients have not been established. no dose adjustment is necessary in elderly patients. of the total number of patients in studies 1, 2, and 3 (clinical studies of febuxostat in the treatment of gout) [see clinical studies ( 14.1)] , 16% were 65 and over, while 4% were 75 and over. comparing patients in different age groups, no clinically significant differences in safety or effectiveness were observed but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. the c max and auc 24 of febuxostat following multiple oral doses of febuxostat in geriatric patients (≥65 years) were similar to those in younger patients (18 to 40 years) [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)] . no dose adjustment is necessary in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (cl cr 30 to 89 ml/min). for patients with severe renal impairment (clcr 15 to 29 ml/min), the recommended dosage of febuxostat is limited to 40 mg once daily [see dosage and administration ( 2.2) and clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)] . no dose adjustment is necessary in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment (child-pugh class a or b). no studies have been conducted in patients with severe hepatic impairment (child-pugh class c); therefore, caution should be exercised in these patients [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)] . no studies have been conducted in patients with secondary hyperuricemia (including organ transplant recipients); febuxostat is not recommended for use in patients whom the rate of urate formation is greatly increased (e.g., malignant disease and its treatment, lesch-nyhan syndrome). the concentration of xanthine in urine could, in rare cases, rise sufficiently to allow deposition in the urinary tract.

pai holdings, llc dba pharmaceutical associates, inc. and dba pai pharma - buprenorphine hydrochloride (unii: 56w8mw3en1) (buprenorphine - unii:40d3scr4gz) - buprenorphine sublingual tablets is indicated for the treatment of opioid dependence and is preferred for induction. buprenorphine sublingual tablets should be used as part of a complete treatment plan to include counseling and psychosocial support. buprenorphine sublingual tablets is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to buprenorphine, as serious adverse reactions, including anaphylactic shock, have been reported [see warnings and precautions (5.9)] . risk summary the data on use of buprenorphine, the active ingredient in buprenorphine sublingual tablets, in pregnancy, are limited; however, these data do not indicate an increased risk of major malformations specifically due to buprenorphine exposure. there are limited data from randomized clinical trials in women maintained on buprenorphine that were not designed appropriately to assess the risk of major malformations [see data] . observational studies have reported on congenital malformations among buprenorphine-exposed pregnancies but were also not designed appropriately to assess the risk of congenital malformations specifically due to buprenorphine exposure [see data] . reproductive and developmental studies in rats and rabbits identified adverse events at clinically relevant and higher doses. embryofetal death was observed in both rats and rabbits administered buprenorphine during the period of organogenesis at doses approximately 6 and 0.3 times, respectively, the human sublingual dose of 16 mg/day of buprenorphine. pre- and post-natal development studies in rats demonstrated increased neonatal deaths at 0.3 times and above and dystocia at approximately 3 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg/day of buprenorphine. no clear teratogenic effects were seen when buprenorphine was administered during organogenesis with a range of doses equivalent to or greater than the human sublingual dose of 16 mg/day of buprenorphine. however, increases in skeletal abnormalities were noted in rats and rabbits administered buprenorphine daily during organogenesis at doses approximately 0.6 times and approximately equal to the human sublingual dose of 16 mg/day of buprenorphine, respectively. in a few studies, some events such as acephalus and omphalocele were also observed but these findings were not clearly treatment-related [see data]. based on animal data, advice pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. 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 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and embryo-fetal risk untreated opioid addiction in pregnancy is associated with adverse obstetrical outcomes such as low birth weight, preterm birth, and fetal death. in addition, untreated opioid addiction often results in continued or relapsing illicit opioid use. dose adjustment during pregnancy and the postpartum period dosage adjustments of buprenorphine may be required during pregnancy, even if the patient was maintained on a stable dose prior to pregnancy. withdrawal signs and symptoms should be monitored closely, and the dose adjusted as necessary. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome may occur in newborn infants of mothers who are receiving treatment with buprenorphine sublingual tablets. neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome presents as irritability, hyperactivity and abnormal sleep pattern, high pitched cry, tremor, vomiting, diarrhea, and/or failure to gain weight. signs of neonatal withdrawal usually occur in the first days after birth. the duration and severity of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome may vary. observe newborns for signs of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome and manage accordingly. [see warnings and precautions (5.5)] . labor or delivery opioid-dependent women on buprenorphine maintenance therapy may require additional analgesia during labor. data human data studies have been conducted to evaluate neonatal outcomes in women exposed to buprenorphine during pregnancy. limited data from trials, observational studies, case series, and case reports on buprenorphine use in pregnancy do not indicate an increased risk of major malformations specifically due to buprenorphine. several factors may complicate the interpretation of investigations of the children of women who take buprenorphine during pregnancy, including maternal use of illicit drugs, late presentation for prenatal care, infection, poor compliance, poor nutrition, and psychosocial circumstances. interpretation of data is complicated further by the lack of information on untreated opioid-dependent pregnant women, who would be the most appropriate group for comparison. rather, women on another form of opioid medication-assisted treatment, or women in the general population are generally used as the comparison group. however, women in these comparison groups may be different from women prescribed buprenorphine-containing products with respect to maternal factors that may lead to poor pregnancy outcomes. in a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial [maternal opioid treatment: human experimental research (mother)] designed primarily to assess neonatal opioid withdrawal effects, opioid-dependent pregnant women were randomized to buprenorphine (n=86) or methadone (n=89) treatment, with enrollment at an average gestational age of 18.7 weeks in both groups. a total of 28 of the 86 women in the buprenorphine group (33%) and 16 of the 89 women in the methadone group (18%) discontinued treatment before the end of pregnancy. among women who remained in treatment until delivery, there was no difference between buprenorphine-treated and methadone-treated groups in the number of neonates requiring nows treatment or in the peak severity of nows. buprenorphine-exposed neonates required less morphine (mean total dose, 1.1 mg vs. 10.4 mg), had shorter hospital stays (10.0 days vs. 17.5 days), and shorter duration of treatment for nows (4.1 days vs. 9.9 days) compared to the methadone-exposed group. there were no differences between groups in other primary outcomes (neonatal head circumference,) or secondary outcomes (weight and length at birth, preterm birth, gestational age at delivery, and 1- minute and 5-minute apgar scores), or in the rates of maternal or neonatal adverse events. the outcomes among mothers who discontinued treatment before delivery and may have relapsed to illicit opioid use are not known. because of the imbalance in discontinuation rates between the buprenorphine and methadone groups, the study findings are difficult to interpret. animal data the exposure margins listed below are based on body surface area comparisons (mg/m2) to the human sublingual dose of 16 mg buprenorphine via buprenorphine sublingual tablets. no definitive drug-related teratogenic effects were observed in rats and rabbits at im doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure approximately 20 times and 35 times, respectively, the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). maternal toxicity resulting in mortality was noted in these studies in both rats and rabbits. acephalus was observed in one rabbit fetus from the low-dose group and omphalocele was observed in two rabbit fetuses from the same litter in the mid-dose group; no findings were observed in fetuses from the high-dose group. maternal toxicity was seen in the high-dose group but not at the lower doses where the findings were observed. following oral administration of buprenorphine to rats, dose-related post-implantation losses, evidenced by increases in the numbers of early resorptions with consequent reductions in the numbers of fetuses, were observed at doses of 10 mg/kg/day or greater (estimated exposure approximately 6 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). in the rabbit, increased post-implantation losses occurred at an oral dose of 40 mg/kg/day. following im administration in the rat and the rabbit, post-implantation losses, as evidenced by decreases in live fetuses and increases in resorptions, occurred at 30 mg/kg/day. buprenorphine was not teratogenic in rats or rabbits after im or subcutaneous (sc) doses up to 5 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure was approximately 3 and 6 times, respectively, the human sublingual dose of 16 mg), after iv doses up to 0.8 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure was approximately 0.5 times and equal to, respectively, the human sublingual dose of 16 mg), or after oral doses up to 160 mg/kg/day in rats (estimated exposure was approximately 95 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg) and 25 mg/kg/day in rabbits (estimated exposure was approximately 30 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). significant increases in skeletal abnormalities (e.g., extra thoracic vertebra or thoraco-lumbar ribs) were noted in rats after sc administration of 1 mg/kg/day and up (estimated exposure was approximately 0.6 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg), but were not observed at oral doses up to 160 mg/kg/day. increases in skeletal abnormalities in rabbits after im administration of 5 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure was approximately 6 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg) in the absence of maternal toxicity or oral administration of 1 mg/kg/day or greater (estimated exposure was approximately equal to the human sublingual dose of 16 mg) were not statistically significant. in rabbits, buprenorphine produced statistically significant pre-implantation losses at oral doses of 1 mg/kg/day or greater and post- implantation losses that were statistically significant at iv doses of 0.2 mg/kg/day or greater (estimated exposure approximately 0.3 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). no maternal toxicity was noted at doses causing post-implantation loss in this study. dystocia was noted in pregnant rats treated intramuscularly with buprenorphine from gestation day 14 through lactation day 21 at 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 3 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). fertility, and pre- and post-natal development studies with buprenorphine in rats indicated increases in neonatal mortality after oral doses of 0.8 mg/kg/day and up (approximately 0.5 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg), after im doses of 0.5 mg/kg/day and up (approximately 0.3 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg), and after sc doses of 0.1 mg/kg/day and up (approximately 0.06 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). an apparent lack of milk production during these studies likely contributed to the decreased pup viability and lactation indices. delays in the occurrence of righting reflex and startle response were noted in rat pups at an oral dose of 80 mg/kg/day (approximately 50 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg). risk summary based on two studies in 13 lactating women maintained on buprenorphine treatment, buprenorphine and its metabolite norbuprenorphine were present in low levels in human milk, and available data have not shown adverse reactions in breastfed infants. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for buprenorphine and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition. clinical considerations advise breastfeeding women taking buprenorphine products to monitor the infant for increased drowsiness and breathing difficulties. data data were consistent from two studies (n=13) of breastfeeding infants whose mothers were maintained on sublingual doses of buprenorphine ranging from 2.4 to 24 mg/day, showing that the infants were exposed to less than 1% of the maternal daily dose. in a study of six lactating women who were taking a median sublingual buprenorphine dose of 0.29 mg/kg/day 5 to 8 days after delivery, breast milk provided a median infant dose of 0.42 mcg/kg/day of buprenorphine and 0.33 mcg/kg/day of norbuprenorphine, equal to 0.2% and 0.12%, respectively, of the maternal weight-adjusted dose (relative dose/kg (%) of norbuprenorphine was calculated from the assumption that buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine are equipotent). data from a study of seven lactating women who were taking a median sublingual buprenorphine dose of 7 mg/day an average of 1.12 months after delivery indicated that the mean milk concentrations (cavg ) of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine were 3.65 mcg/l and 1.94 mcg/l respectively. based on the study data, and assuming milk consumption of 150 ml/kg/day, an exclusively breastfed infant would receive an estimated mean absolute infant dose (aid) of 0.55 mcg/kg/day of buprenorphine and 0.29 mcg/kg/day of norbuprenorphine, or a mean relative infant dose (rid) of 0.38% and 0.18%, respectively, of the maternal weight-adjusted dose. infertility chronic use of opioids may cause reduced fertility in females and males of reproductive potential. it is not known whether these effects on fertility are reversible [see adverse reactions (6.2), clinical pharmacology (12.2), nonclinical toxicology (13.1)] . the safety and effectiveness of buprenorphine sublingual tablet has not been established in pediatric patients. clinical studies of buprenorphine sublingual tablets, buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual film, or buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablet did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they responded differently than younger subjects. other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. due to possible decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy in geriatric patients, the decision to prescribe buprenorphine sublingual tablets should be made cautiously in individuals 65 years of age or older and these patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of toxicity or overdose. the effects of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine were evaluated in a pharmacokinetic study.  buprenorphine is extensively metabolized in the liver and buprenorphine plasma levels were found to be higher and the half-life was found to be longer in subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment, but not in subjects with mild hepatic impairment. for patients with severe hepatic impairment, a dose adjustment is recommended, and patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment should be monitored for signs and symptoms of toxicity or overdose caused by increased levels of buprenorphine [see dosage and administration (2.7), warnings and precautions (5.12), clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . no differences in buprenorphine pharmacokinetics were observed between 9 dialysis-dependent and 6 normal patients following iv administration of 0.3 mg buprenorphine. buprenorphine sublingual tablets contains buprenorphine, a schedule iii controlled substance under the controlled substances act. buprenorphine, like morphine and other opioids, has the potential for being abused and is subject to criminal diversion. this should be considered when prescribing or dispensing buprenorphine in situations when the clinician is concerned about an increased risk of misuse, abuse, or diversion. healthcare professionals should contact their state professional licensing board or state controlled substances authority for information on how to prevent and detect abuse or diversion of this product. patients who continue to misuse, abuse, or divert, buprenorphine products or other opioids should be provided or referred for more intensive and structured treatment. abuse of buprenorphine poses a risk of overdose and death. this risk is increased with the abuse of buprenorphine and alcohol and other substances, especially benzodiazepines. the healthcare provider may be able to more easily detect misuse or diversion by maintaining records of medication prescribed including date, dose, quantity, frequency of refills, and renewal requests of medication prescribed. proper assessment of the patient, proper prescribing practices, periodic re-evaluation of therapy, and proper handling and storage of the medication are appropriate measures that help to limit abuse of opioid drugs. buprenorphine is a partial agonist at the mu-opioid receptor and chronic administration produces physical dependence of the opioid type, characterized by moderate withdrawal signs and symptoms upon abrupt discontinuation or rapid taper. the withdrawal syndrome is typically milder than seen with full agonists and may be delayed in onset [see warnings and precautions (5.7)]. neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (nows) is an expected and treatable outcome of prolonged use of opioids during pregnancy [see warnings and precautions (5.5)] instructions for use buprenorphine (bue’’ pre nor’ feen) sublingual tablets ciii this “instructions for use” contains information on how to correctly take buprenorphine sublingual tablets. important information you need to know before taking buprenorphine sublingual tablets: - your healthcare provider should show you how to take buprenorphine sublingual tablets the right way. preparing to take buprenorphine sublingual tablets: - put the tablets under your tongue. let them dissolve completely. - while buprenorphine sublingual tablet is dissolving, do not chew or swallow the tablet because the medicine will not work as well. - talking while the tablet is dissolving can affect how well the medicine in buprenorphine sublingual tablet is absorbed. - after buprenorphine sublingual tablets is completely dissolved, rinse your mouth with water and swallow. wait for at least one hour before brushing teeth. - if you miss a dose of buprenorphine sublingual tablets, take your medicine when you remember. if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the next dose at your regular time. do not take 2 doses at the same time unless your healthcare provider tells you to. if you are not sure about your dosing, call your healthcare provider. - do not stop taking buprenorphine sublingual tablets suddenly. you could become sick and have withdrawal symptoms because your body has become used to the medicine. physical dependence is not the same as drug addiction. your healthcare provider can tell you more about the differences between physical dependence and drug addiction. to have fewer withdrawal symptoms, ask your healthcare provider how to stop using buprenorphine sublingual tablets the right way. if you take too much buprenorphine sublingual tablets or overdose, call poison control or get emergency medical help right away. storing buprenorphine

pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to antidepressants during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by calling the national pregnancy registry for antidepressants at 1-844-405-6185. risk summary there are no published studies on desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets in pregnant women; however published epidemiologic studies of pregnant women exposed to venlafaxine, the parent compound, have not reported a clear association with adverse developmental outcomes (see data) . there are risks associated with untreated depression in pregnancy and with exposure to snris and ssris, including desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, during pregnancy (see clinical considerations). in reproductive developmental studies in rats and rabbits treated with desvenlafaxine succinate, there was no evidence of teratogenicity at a plasma exposure (auc) that is up to 19-times (rats) and 0.5-times (rabbits) the exposure at an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. however, fetotoxicity and pup deaths were observed in rats at 4.5-times the auc exposure observed with an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is 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. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and/or embryo/fetal risk a prospective longitudinal study of 201 women with a history of major depression who were euthymic at the beginning of pregnancy, showed that women who discontinued antidepressant medication during pregnancy were more likely to experience a relapse of major depression than women who continued antidepressant medication. maternal adverse reactions exposure to snris in mid to late pregnancy may increase the risk for preeclampsia, and exposure to snris near delivery may increase the risk for postpartum hemorrhage. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions exposure to snris or ssris in late pregnancy may lead to an increased risk for neonatal complications requiring prolonged hospitalization, respiratory support, and tube feeding. monitor neonates who were exposed to desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets in the third trimester of pregnancy for drug discontinuation syndrome (see data). data human data published epidemiological studies of pregnant women exposed to the parent compound venlafaxine have not reported a clear association with major birth defects or miscarriage. methodological limitations of these observational studies include possible exposure and outcome misclassification, lack of adequate controls, adjustment for confounders, and confirmatory studies; therefore, these studies cannot establish or exclude any drug-associated risk during pregnancy. retrospective cohort studies based on claims data have shown an association between venlafaxine use and preeclampsia, compared to depressed women who did not take an antidepressant during pregnancy. one study that assessed venlafaxine exposure in the second trimester or first half of the third trimester and preeclampsia showed an increased risk compared to unexposed depressed women [adjusted (adj) rr 1.57, 95% ci 1.29 to 1.91]. preeclampsia was observed at venlafaxine doses equal to or greater than 75 mg/day and a duration of treatment >30 days. another study that assessed venlafaxine exposure in gestational weeks 10 to 20 and preeclampsia showed an increased risk at doses equal to or greater than 150 mg/day. available data are limited by possible outcome misclassification and possible confounding due to depression severity and other confounders. retrospective cohort studies based on claims data have suggested an association between venlafaxine use near the time of delivery or through delivery and postpartum hemorrhage. one study showed an increased risk for postpartum hemorrhage when venlafaxine exposure occurred through delivery, compared to unexposed depressed women [adj rr 2.24 (95% ci 1.69 to 2.97)]. there was no increased risk in women who were exposed to venlafaxine earlier in pregnancy. limitations of this study include possible confounding due to depression severity and other confounders. another study showed an increased risk for postpartum hemorrhage when snri exposure occurred for at least 15 days in the last month of pregnancy or through delivery, compared to unexposed women (adj rr 1.64 to 1.76). the results of this study may be confounded by the effects of depression. neonates exposed to snris or ssris, late in the third trimester have developed complications requiring prolonged hospitalization, respiratory support, and tube feeding. such complications can arise immediately upon delivery. reported clinical findings have included respiratory distress, cyanosis, apnea, seizures, temperature instability, feeding difficulty, vomiting, hypoglycemia, hypotonia, hypertonia, hyperreflexia, tremor, jitteriness, irritability, and constant crying. these features are consistent with either a direct toxic effect of ssris and snris or, possibly, a drug discontinuation syndrome. it should be noted that, in some cases, the clinical picture is consistent with serotonin syndrome [see warnings and precautions (5.2)] . animal data when desvenlafaxine succinate was administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses up to 300 mg/kg/day and 75 mg/kg/day, respectively, no teratogenic effects were observed. these doses were associated with a plasma exposure (auc) 19 times (rats) and 0.5 times (rabbits) the auc exposure at an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. however, fetal weights were decreased and skeletal ossification was delayed in rats in association with maternal toxicity at the highest dose, with an auc exposure at the no-effect dose that is 4.5-times the auc exposure at an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. when desvenlafaxine succinate was administered orally to pregnant rats throughout gestation and lactation, there was a decrease in pup weights and an increase in pup deaths during the first four days of lactation at the highest dose of 300 mg/kg/day. the cause of these deaths is not known. the auc exposure at the no-effect dose for rat pup mortality was 4.5-times the auc exposure at an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. post-weaning growth and reproductive performance of the progeny were not affected by maternal treatment with desvenlafaxine succinate at exposures 19 times the auc exposure at an adult human dose of 100 mg per day. risk summary available limited data from published literature show low levels of desvenlafaxine in human milk, and have not shown adverse reactions in breastfed infants (see data) . there are no data on the effects of desvenlafaxine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets or from the underlying maternal condition. data a lactation study was conducted in 10 breastfeeding women (at a mean of 4.3 months postpartum) who were being treated with a 50 to 150 mg daily dose of desvenlafaxine for postpartum depression. sampling was performed at steady state (up to 8 samples) over a 24 hour dosing period, and included foremilk and hindmilk. the mean relative infant dose was calculated to be 6.8% (range of 5.5 to 8.1%). no adverse reactions were seen in the infants. the safety and effectiveness of desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets have not been established in pediatric patients for the treatment of mdd. efficacy was not demonstrated in two adequate and well controlled, 8-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group studies conducted in 587 patients (7 to 17 years of age) for the treatment of mdd. antidepressants, such as desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric patients [see the boxed warning and warnings and precautions (5.1)] . desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets were associated with a decrease in body weight in placebo-controlled trials in pediatric patients with mdd. the incidence of weight loss (≥ 3.5% of baseline weight) was 22%, 14%, and 7% for patients treated with low dose desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, high dose desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, and placebo, respectively. the risks associated with longer term desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets use were assessed in 6-month, open-label extension studies in pediatric patients (7 to 17 years of age) with mdd. pediatric patients (7 to 17 years of age) had mean changes in weight that approximated expected changes, based on data from age- and sex-matched peers. in clinical trials, when compared to adult patients receiving the same dose of desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, exposure to desvenlafaxine was similar in adolescent patients 12 to 17 years of age, and was about 30% higher in pediatric patients 7 to 11 years of age. juvenile animal studies in a juvenile animal study, male and female rats were treated with desvenlafaxine (75, 225 and 675 mg/kg/day) starting on postnatal day (pnd) 22 through 112. behavioral deficits (longer time immobile in a motor activity test, longer time swimming in a straight channel test, and lack of habituation in an acoustic startle test) were observed in males and females but were reversed after a recovery period. a no adverse effect level (noael) was not identified for these deficits. the low adverse effect level (loael) was 75 mg/kg/day which was associated with plasma exposure (auc) twice the levels measured with a pediatric dose of 100 mg/day. in a second juvenile animal study, male and female rats were administered desvenlafaxine (75, 225 or 675 mg/kg/day) for 8 to 9 weeks starting on pnd 22 and were mated with naïve counterparts. delays in sexual maturation and decreased fertility, number of implantation sites and total live embryos were observed in treated females at all doses. the loael for these findings is 75 mg/kg/day which was associated with an auc twice the levels measured with a pediatric dose of 100 mg/day. these findings were reversed at the end of a 4-week recovery period. the relevance of these findings to humans is not known. of the 4,158 patients in pre-marketing clinical studies with desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, 6% were 65 years of age or older. no overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between these patients and younger patients; however, in the short-term placebo-controlled studies, there was a higher incidence of systolic orthostatic hypotension in patients ≥ 65 years of age compared to patients < 65 years of age treated with desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets [see adverse reactions (6.1 )] . for elderly patients, possible reduced renal clearance of desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets should be considered when determining dose [see dosage and administration ( 2.2 )  and clinical pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . ssris and snris, including desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets, have been associated with cases of clinically significant hyponatremia in elderly patients, who may be at greater risk for this adverse event [see warnings and precautions ( 5.9 )] . adjust the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment (clcr 15 to 50 ml/min, c-g), or end-stage renal disease (clcr < 15 ml/min, c-g) [see dosage and administration (2.2) and clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . adjust the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (child-pugh score 7 to 15) [see dosage and administration (2.3) and clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . desvenlafaxine extended-release tablets are not a controlled substance.
