pregnancy outcomes with lansoprazole treatment (see data). in animal reproduction studies, oral administration of lansoprazole to rats during organogenesis through lactation at 6.4 times the maximum recommended human dose produced reductions in the offspring in femur weight, femur length, crown-rump length and growth plate thickness (males only) on postnatal day 21 (see data). these effects were associated with reduction in body weight gain. advise pregnant women of the potential risk to the fetus. 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. if lansoprazole delayed-release capsules are administered with clarithromycin, the pregnancy information for clarithromycin also applies to the combination regimen. refer to the prescribing information for clarithromycin for more information on use in pregnancy. data human data available data from published observational studies failed to demonstrate an association of adverse pregnancy-related outcomes and lansoprazole use. methodological limitations of these observational studies cannot definitely establish or exclude any drug-associated risk during pregnancy. in a prospective study by the european network of teratology information services, outcomes from a group of 62 pregnant women administered median daily doses of 30 mg of lansoprazole were compared to a control group of 868 pregnant women who did not take any ppis. there was no difference in the rate of major malformations between women exposed to ppis and the control group, corresponding to a relative risk (rr)=1.04, [95% confidence interval (ci) 0.25 to 4.21]. in a population-based retrospective cohort study covering all live births in denmark from 1996 to 2008, there was no significant increase in major birth defects during analysis of first trimester exposure to lansoprazole in 794 live births. a meta-analysis that compared 1,530 pregnant women exposed to ppis in at least the first trimester with 133,410 unexposed pregnant women showed no significant increases in risk for congenital malformations or spontaneous abortion with exposure to ppis (for major malformations odds ratio (or)=1.12, [95% ci 0.86 to 1.45] and for spontaneous abortions or=1.29, [95% ci 0.84 to 1.97]). animal data no adverse effects on embryo-fetal development occurred in studies performed in pregnant rats at oral lansoprazole doses up to 150 mg/kg/day (40 times the recommended human dose [30 mg/day] based on body surface area) administered during organogenesis and pregnant rabbits at oral lansoprazole doses up to 30 mg/kg/day (16 times the recommended human dose based on body surface area) administered during organogenesis. a pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity study in rats with additional endpoints to evaluate bone development was performed with lansoprazole at oral doses of 10 to 100 mg/kg/day (0.7 to 6.4 times the maximum recommended human lansoprazole dose of 30 mg based on auc [area under the plasma concentration-time curve]) administered during organogenesis through lactation. maternal effects observed at 100 mg/kg/day (6.4 times the maximum recommended human lansoprazole dose of 30 mg based on auc) included increased gestation period, decreased body weight gain during gestation, and decreased food consumption. the number of stillbirths was increased at this dose, which may have been secondary to maternal toxicity. body weight of pups was reduced at 100 mg/kg/day starting on postnatal day 11. femur weight, femur length, and crown-rump length were reduced at 100 mg/kg/day on postnatal day 21. femur weight was still decreased in the 100 mg/kg/day group at age 17 to 18 weeks. growth plate thickness was decreased in the 100 mg/kg/day males on postnatal day 21, and was increased in the 30 and 100 mg/kg/day males at age 17 to 18 weeks. the effects on bone parameters were associated with reduction in body weight gain. risk summary there is no information regarding the presence of lansoprazole in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. however, lansoprazole and its metabolites are present in rat milk. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for lansoprazole delayed-release capsules and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from lansoprazole delayed-release capsules or from the underlying maternal condition. the safety and effectiveness of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules have been established in pediatric patients one year to 17 years of age for short-term treatment of symptomatic gerd and erosive esophagitis. in clinical studies of symptomatic gerd and erosive esophagitis, lansoprazole was not administered beyond 12 weeks in patients one year to 11 years of age. it is not known if lansoprazole delayed-release capsules are safe and effective if used longer than the recommended duration. do not exceed the recommended dose and duration of use in pediatric patients (see juvenile animal toxicity data). lansoprazole was not effective in pediatric patients with symptomatic gerd one month to less than one year of age in a multicenter, double-blind, placebo controlled study. therefore, safety and effectiveness have not been established in patients less than one year. nonclinical studies in juvenile rats have demonstrated an adverse effect of heart valve thickening and bone changes at lansoprazole doses higher than the maximum recommended equivalent human dose. neonate to less than one year of age the pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole were studied in pediatric patients with gerd aged less than 28 days and one to 11 months. compared to healthy adults receiving 30 mg, neonates had higher exposure (mean weight-based normalized auc values 2.04 and 1.88 fold higher at doses of 0.5 mg/kg/day and 1 mg/kg/day, respectively). infants aged ≤10 weeks had clearance and exposure values that were similar to neonates. infants aged greater than 10 weeks who received 1 mg/kg/day had mean auc values that were similar to adults who received a 30 mg dose. lansoprazole was not found to be effective in a u.s. and polish four week multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of 162 patients between one month and less than 12 months of age with symptomatic gerd based on a medical history of crying/fussing/irritability associated with feedings who had not responded to conservative gerd management (i.e., non-pharmacologic intervention) for seven to 14 days. patients received lansoprazole as a suspension daily (0.2 to 0.3 mg/kg/day in infants ≤10 weeks of age or 1 to 1.5 mg/kg/day in infants greater than 10 weeks or placebo) for up to four weeks of double-blind treatment. the primary efficacy endpoint was assessed by greater than 50% reduction from baseline in either the percent of feedings with a crying/fussing/irritability episode or the duration (minutes) of a crying/fussing/irritability episode within one hour after feeding. there was no difference in the percentage of responders between the lansoprazole pediatric suspension group and placebo group (54% in both groups). there were no adverse events reported in pediatric clinical studies (one month to less than 12 months of age) that were not previously observed in adults. based on the results of the phase 3 efficacy study, lansoprazole was not shown to be effective. therefore, these results do not support the use of lansoprazole in treating symptomatic gerd in infants. one year to 11 years of age in an uncontrolled, open-label, u.s. multi-center study, 66 pediatric patients (one year to 11 years of age) with gerd were assigned, based on body weight, to receive an initial dose of either lansoprazole delayed-release capsules 15 mg daily if ≤ 30 kg or lansoprazole delayed-release capsules 30 mg daily if greater than 30 kg administered for eight to 12 weeks. the lansoprazole delayed-release capsules dose was increased (up to 30 mg twice daily) in 24 of 66 pediatric patients after two or more weeks of treatment if they remained symptomatic. at baseline, 85% of patients had mild to moderate overall gerd symptoms (assessed by investigator interview), 58% had non-erosive gerd and 42% had erosive esophagitis (assessed by endoscopy). after eight to 12 weeks of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules treatment, the intent-to-treat analysis demonstrated an approximate 50% reduction in frequency and severity of gerd symptoms. twenty one of 27 erosive esophagitis patients were healed at eight weeks and 100% of patients were healed at 12 weeks by endoscopy (table 4). final visit * % (n/n) * at week 8 or week 12 † symptoms assessed by patients diary kept by caregiver. ‡ no data were available for four pediatric patients. in a study of 66 pediatric patients in the age group one year to 11 years old after treatment with lansoprazole delayed-release capsules given orally in doses of 15 mg daily to 30 mg twice daily, increases in serum gastrin levels were similar to those observed in adult studies. median fasting serum gastrin levels increased 89% from 51 pg/ ml at baseline to 97 pg/ml [interquartile range (25 th to 75 th percentile) of 71 to 130 pg/ ml] at the final visit. the pediatric safety of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules has been assessed in 66 pediatric patients aged one to 11 years of age. of the 66 patients with gerd 85% (56/66) took lansoprazole delayed-release capsules for eight weeks and 15% (10/66) took it for 12 weeks. the most frequently reported (two or more patients) treatment-related adverse reactions in patients one to 11 years of age (n=66) were constipation (5%) and headache (3%). twelve years to 17 years of age in an uncontrolled, open-label, u.s. multi-center study, 87 adolescent patients (12 years to 17 years of age) with symptomatic gerd were treated with lansoprazole delayed-release capsules for eight to 12 weeks. baseline upper endoscopies classified these patients into two groups: 64 (74%) non-erosive gerd and 23 (26%) erosive esophagitis (ee). the non-erosive gerd patients received lansoprazole delayed-release capsules 15 mg daily for eight weeks and the ee patients received lansoprazole delayed-release capsules 30 mg daily for eight to 12 weeks. at baseline, 89% of these patients had mild to moderate overall gerd symptoms (assessed by investigator interviews). during eight weeks of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules treatment, adolescent patients experienced a 63% reduction in frequency and a 69% reduction in severity of gerd symptoms based on diary results. twenty one of 22 (95.5%) adolescent erosive esophagitis patients were healed after eight weeks of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules treatment. one patient remained unhealed after 12 weeks of treatment (table 5). *symptoms assessed by patient diary (parents/caregivers as necessary). † no data available for five patients. ‡ data from one healed patient was excluded from this analysis due to timing of final endoscopy. in these 87 adolescent patients, increases in serum gastrin levels were similar to those observed in adult studies, median fasting serum gastrin levels increased 42% from 45 pg/ml at baseline to 64 pg/ml [interquartile range (25 th to 75 th percentile) of 44 to 88 pg/ml] at the final visit. (normal serum gastrin levels are 25 to 111 pg/ml). the safety of lansoprazole delayed-release capsules has been assessed in these 87 adolescent patients. of the 87 adolescent patients with gerd, 6% (5/87) took lansoprazole delayed-release capsules for less than six weeks, 93% (81/87) for six to 10 weeks, and 1% (1/87) for greater than 10 weeks. the most frequently reported (at least 3%) treatment-related adverse reactions in these patients were headache (7%), abdominal pain (5%), nausea (3%) and dizziness (3%). treatment-related dizziness, reported in this prescribing information as occurring in less than 1% of adult patients, was reported in this study by three adolescent patients with non-erosive gerd, who had dizziness concurrently with other reactions (such as migraine, dyspnea, and vomiting). juvenile animal toxicity data heart valve thickening in two oral toxicity studies, thickening of the mitral heart valve occurred in juvenile rats treated with lansoprazole. heart valve thickening was observed primarily with oral dosing initiated on postnatal day 7 (age equivalent to neonatal humans) and postnatal day 14 (human age equivalent of approximately one year) at doses of 250 mg/kg/day and higher (at postnatal day 7 and postnatal day 14, respectively 6.2 times and 4.2 times the daily pediatric dose of 15 mg in pediatric patients age one to 11 years weighing 30 kg or less, based on auc). the treatment durations associated with heart valve thickening ranged from 5 days to 8 weeks. the findings reversed or trended towards reversibility after a 4-week drug-free recovery period. the incidence of heart valve thickening after initiation of dosing on postnatal day 21 (human age equivalent of approximately two years) was limited to a single rat (1/24) in groups given 500 mg/kg/day for 4 or 8 weeks (approximately 5.2 times the daily pediatric dose of 15 mg in pediatric patients age one to 11 years weighing 30 kg or less, based on auc). based on exposure margins, the risk of heart valve injury does not appear to be relevant to patients one year of age and older. bone changes in an eight-week oral toxicity study in juvenile rats with dosing initiated on postnatal day 7, doses equal to or greater than 100 mg/kg/day (2.5 times the daily pediatric dose of 15 mg in children age one to 11 years weighing 30 kg or less, based on auc) produced delayed growth, with impairment of weight gain observed as early as postnatal day 10 (age equivalent to neonatal humans). at the end of treatment, the signs of impaired growth at 100 mg/kg/day and higher included reductions in body weight (14 to 44% compared to controls), absolute weight of multiple organs, femur weight, femur length, and crown-rump length. femoral growth plate thickness was reduced only in males and only at the 500 mg/kg/day dose. the effects related to delayed growth persisted through the end of the four-week recovery period. longer term data were not collected. of the total number of patients (n=21,486) in clinical studies of lansoprazole delayed-release capusles, 16% of patients were aged 65 years and over, while 4% were 75 years and over. no overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients and other reported clinical experience has not identified significant differences in responses between geriatric and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3) ]. in patients with various degrees of chronic hepatic impairment the exposure to lansoprazole was increased compared to healthy subjects with normal hepatic function [see clinical pharmacology ( 12.3) ]. no dosage adjustment for lansoprazole delayed-release capsules are necessary for patients with mild (child-pugh class a) or moderate (child-pugh class b) hepatic impairment. the recommended dosage is 15 mg orally daily in patients with severe hepatic impairment (child-pugh class c) [ see dosage and administration ( 2.3)] .

reactions (6.2)]. proton pump inhibitors (ppis), including omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules, are contraindicated in patients receiving rilpivirine containing products[see drug interactions (7)].   risk summary there are no adequate and well-controlled studies with omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules in pregnant women. omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules contains omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate. omeprazole 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). sodium bicarbonate available data with sodium bicarbonate use in pregnant women are insufficient to identify a drug associated risk of major birth defects or miscarriage. published animal studies report that sodium bicarbonate administered to rats, mice or rabbits during pregnancy did not cause adverse developmental effects in offspring. 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 there are no adequate and well-controlled studies with omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules in pregnant women. 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 h2 -receptor antagonists or other controls. a population-based retrospective cohort epidemiological study from the swedish medical birth register, covering approximately 99% of pregnancies, from 1995-99, 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 1996-2009 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 ppi. 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 ppi during the first trimester. a retrospective cohort study reported on 689 pregnant women exposed to either h2 -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 h2 -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% 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 dose 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) and in rabbits at oral doses up to 86 mg/kg/day (about 42 times an oral human dose of 40 mg of 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 were 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 of 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 of esomeprazole magnesium 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 a 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 of esomeprazole magnesium equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg 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 available data from the published literature suggest both components of omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules, omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate, are present in human milk. there are no clinical data on the effects of omeprazole or sodium bicarbonate 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 sodium bicarbonate capsules and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules or from the underlying maternal condition. safety and effectiveness of omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules have not been established in pediatric patients. 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 2,000 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 with buffered omeprazole 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 subjects). the plasma half-life averaged one hour, about twice that in nonelderly, healthy subjects taking omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules. 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. avoid use of omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules in patients with hepatic impairment for maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis [see clinical pharmacology (12.3)]. in studies of healthy subjects, asians had approximately a four-fold higher exposure than caucasians. avoid use of omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate capsules in asian patients for maintenance of healing of erosive esophagitis [see clinical pharmacology (12.5)].
