studies conducted in rats and rabbits, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 75 and 200 mg/kg/day, respectively, during the period of organogenesis. malformations (increased incidence of fetal spina bifida) were observed in rabbits at the highest dose, which is approximately 52 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis. the no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rabbits was 60 mg/kg/day (15times the mrhd given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis). there was no evidence of morphological development effects in rats, although increased incidences of fetal skeletal variations were seen at the highest dose level (10 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis), which was also maternally toxic. the no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rats was 25 mg/kg/day (3 times the mrhd on a mg/m 2 basis). when  methylphenidate was administered to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses of up to 45 mg/kg/day, offspring body weight gain was decreased at the highest dose (6 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis), but no other effects on postnatal development were observed. the no effect level for pre- and postnatal development in rats was 15 mg/kg/day (~2 times the mrhd given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis). risk summary limited published literature, based on milk sampling from seven mothers reports that methylphenidate is present in human milk, which resulted in infant doses of 0.16% to 0.7% of the maternal weight-adjusted dosage and a milk/plasma ratio ranging between 1.1 and 2.7. there are no reports of adverse effects on the breastfed infant and no effects on milk production. long-term neurodevelopmental effects on infants from stimulant exposure are unknown. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets and

need to have their treatment interrupted [see warnings and precautions (5.7)] . juvenile animal toxicity data rats treated with methylphenidate early in the postnatal period through sexual maturation demonstrated a decrease in spontaneous locomotor activity in adulthood. a deficit in acquisition of a specific learning task was observed in females only. the doses at which these findings were observed are at least 4 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m 2 basis. in a study conducted in young rats, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 100 mg/kg/day for 9 weeks, starting early in the postnatal period (postnatal day 7) and continuing through sexual maturity (postnatal week 10). when these animals were tested as adults (postnatal weeks 13 to 14), decreased spontaneous locomotor activity was observed in males and females previously treated with 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 4 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m 2 basis) or greater, and a deficit in the acquisition of a specific learning task was seen in females exposed to the highest dose (8 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m 2 basis). the no effect level for juvenile neurobehavioral development in rats was 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.5 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m 2 basis). the clinical significance of the long-term behavioral effects observed in rats is unknown. methylphenidate hydrochloride tablet has not been studied in the geriatric population. methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets contain methylphenidate

control over drug use despite harm, and craving. signs and symptoms of cns stimulant abuse include increased heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and/or sweating, dilated pupils, hyperactivity, restlessness, insomnia, decreased appetite, loss of coordination, tremors, flushed skin, vomiting, and/or abdominal pain. anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed. abusers of cns stimulants may chew, snort, inject, or use other unapproved routes of administration which may result in overdose and death [see overdosage (10)] . to reduce the abuse of cns stimulants including methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets, assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing. after prescribing, keep careful prescription records, educate patients and their families about abuse and on proper storage and disposal of cns stimulants [see how supplied/storage and handling (16)] , monitor for signs of abuse while on therapy, and reevaluate the need for methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets use. tolerance tolerance (a state of adaptation in which exposure to a drug results in a reduction of the drug’s desired and/or undesired effects over time) can occur during chronic therapy with cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets. dependence physical dependence (which is manifested by a withdrawal syndrome produced by abrupt cessation, rapid dose reduction, or administration of an antagonist) may occur in patients treated with cns stimulants including methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets. withdrawal symptoms after abrupt cessation following prolonged high-dosage administration of cns stimulants include dysphoric mood; fatigue; vivid, unpleasant dreams; insomnia or hypersomnia; increased appetite; and psychomotor retardation or agitation.

and 15 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis. however, spina bifida was observed in rabbits at a dose 52 times the mrhd given to adolescents. a decrease in pup body weight was observed in a pre- and postnatal development study with oral administration of methylphenidate to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses 6 times the mrhd given to adolescents (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 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 cns stimulants, such as methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets, can cause vasoconstriction and thereby decrease placental perfusion. no fetal and/or neonatal adverse reactions have been reported with the use of therapeutic doses of methylphenidate during pregnancy; however, premature delivery and low birth weight infants have been reported in amphetamine-dependent mothers. data animal data in embryo-fetal development studies conducted in rats and rabbits, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 75 and 200 mg/kg/day, respectively, during the period of organogenesis. malformations (increased incidence of fetal spina bifida) were observed in rabbits at the highest dose, which is approximately 52 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis. the no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rabbits was 60 mg/kg/day (15 times the mrhd given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis). there was no evidence of morphological development effects in rats, although increased incidences of fetal skeletal variations were seen at the highest dose level (10 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis), which was also maternally toxic. the no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rats was 25 mg/kg/day (3 times the mrhd on a mg/m 2 basis). when methylphenidate was administered to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses of up to 45 mg/kg/day, offspring body weight gain was decreased at the highest dose (6 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis), but no other effects on postnatal development were observed. the no effect level for pre- and postnatal development in rats was 15 mg/kg/day (~2 times the mrhd given to adolescents on a mg/m 2 basis). risk summary limited published literature, based on milk sampling from seven mothers reports that methylphenidate is present in human milk, which resulted in infant doses of 0.16% to 0.7% of the maternal weight-adjusted dosage and a milk/plasma ratio ranging between 1.1 and 2.7. there are no reports of adverse effects on the breastfed infant and no effects on milk production. long-term neurodevelopmental effects on infants from stimulant exposure are unknown. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets or methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets or methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets or from the underlying maternal condition. clinical considerations monitor breastfeeding infants for adverse reactions, such as agitation, insomnia, anorexia, and reduced weight gain. the safety and effectiveness of methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets for the treatment of adhd have been established in pediatric patients 6 to 17 years. the safety and effectiveness of methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets in pediatric patients less than 6 years have not been established. the long-term efficacy of methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets in pediatric patients has not been established. long-term suppression of growth growth should be monitored during treatment with stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets. pediatric patients who are not growing or gaining weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted [see warnings and precautions ( 5.7)] . juvenile animal toxicity data rats treated with methylphenidate early in the postnatal period through sexual maturation demonstrated a decrease in spontaneous locomotor activity in adulthood. a deficit in acquisition of a specific learning task was observed in females only. the doses at which these findings were observed are at least 4 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m 2 basis. in a study conducted in young rats, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 100 mg/kg/day for 9 weeks, starting early in the postnatal period (postnatal day 7) and continuing through sexual maturity (postnatal week 10). when these animals were tested as adults (postnatal weeks 13 to 14), decreased spontaneous locomotor activity was observed in males and females previously treated with 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 4 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m 2 basis) or greater, and a deficit in the acquisition of a specific learning task was seen in females exposed to the highest dose (8 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m 2 basis). the no effect level for juvenile neurobehavioral development in rats was 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.5 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m 2 basis). the clinical significance of the long-term behavioral effects observed in rats is unknown. methylphenidate hydrochloride has not been studied in the geriatric population. methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets contain methylphenidate hydrochloride, a schedule ii controlled substance. cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets, have a high potential for abuse. abuse is characterized by impaired control over drug use despite harm, and craving. signs and symptoms of cns stimulant abuse include increased heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and/or sweating, dilated pupils, hyperactivity, restlessness, insomnia, decreased appetite, loss of coordination, tremors, flushed skin, vomiting, and/or abdominal pain. anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed. abusers of cns stimulants may chew, snort, inject, or use other unapproved routes of administration which may result in overdose and death [see overdosage ( 10)] . to reduce the abuse of cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets, assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing. after prescribing, keep careful prescription records, educate patients and their families about abuse and on proper storage and disposal of cns stimulants [see how supplied/storage and handling ( 16)] , monitor for signs of abuse while on therapy, and reevaluate the need for methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets use. tolerance tolerance (a state of adaptation in which exposure to a drug results in a reduction of the drug’s desired and/or undesired effects over time) can occur during chronic therapy with cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets. dependence physical dependence (which is manifested by a withdrawal syndrome produced by abrupt cessation, rapid dose reduction, or administration of an antagonist) may occur in patients treated with cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release tablets. withdrawal symptoms after abrupt cessation following prolonged high-dosage administration of cns stimulants include dysphoric mood; fatigue; vivid, unpleasant dreams; insomnia or hypersomnia; increased appetite; and psychomotor retardation or agitation.

including addiction [see warnings and precautions (5.1)]. methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets can be diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels or distribution. abuse is the intentional non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, to achieve a desired psychological or physiological effect. misuse is the intentional use, for therapeutic purposes, of a drug by an individual in a way other than prescribed by a health care provider or for whom it was not prescribed. drug addiction is a cluster of behavioral, cognitive, and physiological phenomena that may include a strong desire to take the drug, difficulties in controlling drug use (e.g., continuing drug use despite harmful consequences, giving a higher priority to drug use than other activities and obligations), and possible tolerance or physical dependence. misuse and abuse of methylphenidate hydrochloride may cause increased heart rate, respiratory rate, or blood pressure; sweating; dilated pupils; hyperactivity; restlessness; insomnia; decreased appetite; loss of coordination; tremors; flushed skin; vomiting; and/or abdominal pain. anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed with cns stimulants abuse and/or misuse. misuse and abuse of cns stimulants, including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, can result in overdose and death [see overdosage (10)], and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection. physical dependence methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets may produce physical dependence. physical dependence is a state that develops as a result of physiological adaptation in response to repeated drug use, manifested by withdrawal signs and symptoms after abrupt discontinuation or a significant dose reduction of a drug. withdrawal signs and symptoms after abrupt discontinuation or dose reduction following prolonged use of cns stimulants including methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets include dysphoric mood; depression; fatigue; vivid, unpleasant dreams; insomnia or hypersomnia; increased appetite; and psychomotor retardation or agitation. tolerance methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets may produce tolerance. tolerance is a physiological state characterized by a reduced response to a drug after repeated administration (i.e., a higher dose of a drug is required to produce the same effect that was once obtained at a lower dose).
