mckesson corporation dba sky packaging - zolpidem tartrate (unii: wy6w63843k) (zolpidem - unii:7k383oqi23) - zolpidem tartrate 10 mg - zolpidem tartrate tablets are indicated for the short-term treatment of insomnia characterized by difficulties with sleep initiation. zolpidem tartrate tablets have been shown to decrease sleep latency for up to 35 days in controlled clinical studies [see clinical studies (14)] . the clinical trials performed in support of efficacy were 4 to 5 weeks in duration with the final formal assessments of sleep latency performed at the end of treatment. zolpidem tartrate tablets are contraindicated in patientszolpidem tartrate tablets are contraindicated in patients - who  have experienced complex sleep behaviors after taking zolpidem tartrate tablets [see warnings and precautions (5.1). have[see warnings and precautions (5.1). -  with known hypersensitivity to zolpidem. observed reactions include anaphylaxis and angioedema [see warnings and precautions (5.4)] . risk summary neonates born to mothers using zolpidem late in the third trimester of pregnancy have been reported to experience symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation [see clinical   considerations and data] . published data on the use of zolpidem during pregnancy have not   reported a clear association with zolpidem and major birth defects [see data]. oral administration of zolpidem to pregnant rats and rabbits did not indicate a risk for adverse effects on fetal development at clinically relevant doses [see data]. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations 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. clinical considerations fetal/neonatal adverse reactions zolpidem crosses the placenta and may produce respiratory depression and sedation in neonates. monitor neonates exposed to zolpidem tartrate during pregnancy and labor for signs of excess sedation, hypotonia, and respiratory depression and manage accordingly. data human data published data from observational studies, birth registries, and case reports on the use of zolpidem during pregnancy do not report a clear association with zolpidem and major birth defects.                  there are limited postmarketing reports of severe to moderate cases of respiratory depression that occurred after birth in neonates whose mothers had taken zolpidem during pregnancy. these cases required artificial ventilation or intratracheal intubation. the majority of neonates recovered within hours to a few weeks after birth once treated. zolpidem has been shown to cross the placenta. animal data oral administration of zolpidem to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at 4, 20, and 100 mg base/kg/day, which are approximately 5, 25, and 120 times the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 10 mg/day (8 mg zolpidem base) based on mg/m 2 body surface area, caused delayed fetal development (incomplete fetal skeletal ossification) at maternally toxic (ataxia) doses 25 and 120 times the mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area. oral administration of zolpidem to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis at 1, 4, and 16 mg base/kg/day, which are approximately 2.5, 10, and 40 times the mrhd of 10 mg/day (8 mg zolpidem base) based on mg/m 2 body surface area caused embryo-fetal death and delayed fetal development (incomplete fetal skeletal ossification) at a maternally toxic (decreased body weight gain) dose 40 times the mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area. oral administration of zolpidem to pregnant rats from day 15 of gestation through lactation at 4, 20, and 100 mg base/kg/day, which are approximately 5, 25, and 120 times the mrhd of 10 mg/day (8 mg zolpidem base) based on mg/m 2 body surface area, delayed offspring growth and decreased survival at doses 25 and 120 times, respectively, the mrhd based on mg/m 2 body surface area. risk summary limited data from published literature report the presence of zolpidem in human milk. there are reports of excess sedation in infants exposed to zolpidem through breastmilk [see clinical   considerations]. there is no information on the effects of zolpidem on milk production. the   developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for zolpidem tartrate and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from zolpidem tartrate or from the underlying maternal condition. clinical considerations infants exposed to zolpidem tartrate through breastmilk should be monitored for excess sedation, hypotonia, and respiratory depression. a lactating woman may consider interrupting breastfeeding and pumping and discarding breast milk during treatment and for 23 hours (approximately 5 elimination half-lives) after zolpidem tartrate administration in order to minimize drug exposure to a breast fed infant. zolpidem tartrate is not recommended for use in children. safety and effectiveness of zolpidem in pediatric patients below the age of 18 years have not been established. in an 8-week study in pediatric patients (aged 6 to 17 years) with insomnia associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (adhd) an oral solution of zolpidem tartrate dosed at 0.25 mg/kg at bedtime did not decrease sleep latency compared to placebo. psychiatric and nervous system disorders comprised the most frequent (>5%) treatment emergent adverse reactions observed with zolpidem versus placebo and included dizziness (23.5% vs 1.5%), headache (12.5% vs 9.2%), and hallucinations were reported in 7% of the pediatric patients who received zolpidem; none of the pediatric patients who received placebo reported hallucinations [see warnings and precautions (5.5)] . ten patients on zolpidem (7.4%) discontinued treatment due to an adverse reaction. a total of 154 patients in u.s. controlled clinical trials and 897 patients in non-u.s. clinical trials who received zolpidem were ≥60 years of age. for a pool of u.s. patients receiving zolpidem at doses of ≤10 mg or placebo, there were three adverse reactions occurring at an incidence of at least 3% for zolpidem and for which the zolpidem incidence was at least twice the placebo incidence (i.e., they could be considered drug related). a total of 30/1,959 (1.5%) non-u.s. patients receiving zolpidem reported falls, including 28/30 (93%) who were ≥70 years of age. of these 28 patients, 23 (82%) were receiving zolpidem doses >10 mg. a total of 24/1,959 (1.2%) non-u.s. patients receiving zolpidem reported confusion, including 18/24 (75%) who were ≥70 years of age. of these 18 patients, 14 (78%) were receiving zolpidem doses >10 mg. the dose of zolpidem tartrate in elderly patients is 5 mg to minimize adverse effects related to impaired motor and/or cognitive performance and unusual sensitivity to sedative/hypnotic drugs [see warnings and precautions (5.2)] . women clear zolpidem tartrate from the body at a lower rate than men. c max and auc parameters of zolpidem were approximately 45% higher at the same dose in female subjects compared with male subjects. given the higher blood levels of zolpidem tartrate in women compared to men at a given dose, the recommended initial dose of zolpidem tartrate for adult women is 5 mg, and the recommended dose for adult men is 5 or 10 mg. in geriatric patients, clearance of zolpidem is similar in men and women. the recommended dose of zolpidem tartrate in geriatric patients is 5 mg regardless of gender. the recommended dose of zolpidem tartrate in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment is 5 mg once daily immediately before bedtime. avoid zolpidem tartrate use in patients with severe hepatic impairment as it may contribute to encephalopathy [see dosage and administration (2.2), warnings and precautions (5.8), clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . zolpidem tartrate is classified as a schedule iv controlled substance by federal regulation. abuse and addiction are separate and distinct from physical dependence and tolerance. abuse is characterized by misuse of the drug for non-medical purposes, often in combination with other psychoactive substances. tolerance is a state of adaptation in which exposure to a drug induces changes that result in a diminution of one or more of the drug effects over time. tolerance may occur to both desired and undesired effects of drugs and may develop at different rates for different effects. addiction is a primary, chronic, neurobiological disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations. it is characterized by behaviors that include one or more of the following: impaired control over drug use, compulsive use, continued use despite harm, and craving. drug addiction is a treatable disease, using a multidisciplinary approach, but relapse is common. studies of abuse potential in former drug abusers found that the effects of single doses of zolpidem tartrate 40 mg were similar, but not identical, to diazepam 20 mg, while zolpidem tartrate 10 mg was difficult to distinguish from placebo. because persons with a history of addiction to, or abuse of, drugs or alcohol are at increased risk for misuse, abuse and addiction of zolpidem, they should be monitored carefully when receiving zolpidem or any other hypnotic. physical dependence is a state of adaptation that is manifested by a specific withdrawal syndrome that can be produced by abrupt cessation, rapid dose reduction, decreasing blood level of the drug, and/or administration of an antagonist. sedative/hypnotics have produced withdrawal signs and symptoms following abrupt discontinuation. these reported symptoms range from mild dysphoria and insomnia to a withdrawal syndrome that may include abdominal and muscle cramps, vomiting, sweating, tremors, and convulsions. the following adverse events, which are considered to meet the dsm-iii-r criteria for uncomplicated sedative/hypnotic withdrawal, were reported during u.s. clinical trials following placebo substitution occurring within 48 hours following last zolpidem treatment: fatigue, nausea, flushing, lightheadedness, uncontrolled crying, emesis, stomach cramps, panic attack, nervousness, and abdominal discomfort. these reported adverse events occurred at an incidence of 1% or less. however, available data cannot provide a reliable estimate of the incidence, if any, of dependence during treatment at recommended doses. postmarketing reports of abuse, dependence and withdrawal have been received.

mckesson corporation dba sky packaging - amiodarone hydrochloride (unii: 976728sy6z) (amiodarone - unii:n3rq532iut) - amiodarone hydrochloride tablets are indicated for the treatment of documented, life-threatening recurrent ventricular fibrillation and life-threatening recurrent hemodynamically unstable tachycardia in adults who have not responded to adequate doses of other available antiarrhythmics or when alternative agents cannot be tolerated. - cardiogenic shock. - sick sinus syndrome, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, bradycardia leading to syncope without a functioning pacemaker. - known hypersensitivity to the drug or to any of its components, including iodine. risk summary available data from postmarketing reports and published case series indicate that amiodarone use in pregnant women may increase the risk for fetal adverse effects including neonatal hypo- and hyperthyroidism, neonatal bradycardia, neurodevelopmental abnormalities, preterm birth and fetal growth restriction. amiodarone and its metabolite, desethylamiodarone (dea), cross the placenta. untreated underlying arrhythmias, including ventricular arrhythmias, during pregnancy pose a risk to the mother and fetus ( see clinical considerations). in animal studies, administration of amiodarone to rabbits, rats, and mice during organogenesis resulted in embryo- fetal toxicity at doses less than the maximum recommended human maintenance dose (see data) . advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. 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%-4% and 15%-20%, respectively. clinical considerations disease-associated maternal and or embryo/fetal risk the incidence of ventricular tachycardia is increased and may be more symptomatic during pregnancy. ventricular arrhythmias most often occur in pregnant women with underlying cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, valvular heart disease, or mitral valve prolapse. most tachycardia episodes are initiated by ectopic beats and the occurrence of arrhythmia episodes may therefore, increase during pregnancy due to the increased propensity to ectopic activity. breakthrough arrhythmias may also occur during pregnancy, as therapeutic treatment levels may be difficult to maintain due to the increased volume of distribution and increased drug metabolism inherent in the pregnant state. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions amiodarone and its metabolite have been shown to cross the placenta. adverse fetal effects associated with maternal amiodarone use during pregnancy may include neonatal bradycardia, qt prolongation, and periodic ventricular extrasystoles, neonatal hypothyroidism (with or without goiter) detected antenatally or in the newborn and reported even after a few days of exposure, neonatal hyperthyroxinemia, neurodevelopmental abnormalities independent of thyroid function, including speech delay and difficulties with written language and arithmetic, delayed motor development, and ataxia, jerk nystagmus with synchronous head titubation, fetal growth restriction, and premature birth. monitor the newborn for signs and symptoms of thyroid disorder and cardiac arrhythmias. labor and delivery risk of arrhythmias may increase during labor and delivery. patients treated with amiodarone hydrochloride tablets should be monitored continuously during labor and delivery [see warnings and precautions ( 5.4)]. data animal data in pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis, amiodarone hcl in doses of 25 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.4 and 0.9 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human maintenance dose*) had no adverse effects on the fetus. in the rabbit, 75 mg/kg/day (approximately 2.7 times the maximum recommended human maintenance dose*) caused abortions in greater than 90% of the animals. in the rat, doses of 50 mg/kg/day or more were associated with slight displacement of the testes and an increased incidence of incomplete ossification of some skull and digital bones; at 100 mg/kg/day or more, fetal body weights were reduced; at 200 mg/kg/day, there was an increased incidence of fetal resorption. (these doses in the rat are approximately 0.8, 1.6 and 3.2 times the maximum recommended human maintenance dose*) adverse effects on fetal growth and survival also were noted in one of two strains of mice at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.04 times the maximum recommended human maintenance dose*). *600 mg in a 60 kg patient (doses compared on a body surface area basis) risk summary amiodarone and one of its major metabolites, dea, are present in breastmilk at between 3.5% and 45% of the maternal weight- adjusted dosage of amiodarone. there are cases of hypothyroidism and bradycardia in breastfed infants, although it is unclear if these effects are due to amiodarone exposure in breastmilk. breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with amiodarone hydrochloride tablets [see warnings and precautions ( 5.6, 5.7)] . infertility based on animal fertility studies, amiodarone hydrochloride tablets may reduce female and male fertility. it is not known if this effect is reversible. [see nonclinical toxicology ( 13.1)] . the safety and effectiveness of amiodarone hydrochloride tablets in pediatric patients have not been established. normal subjects over 65 years of age show lower clearances and increased drug half-life than younger subjects [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3)]. in general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
