akorn operating company llc (dba akorn) - buprenorphine hydrochloride (unii: 56w8mw3en1) (buprenorphine - unii:40d3scr4gz), naloxone hydrochloride (unii: f850569pqr) (naloxone - unii:36b82amq7n) - buprenorphine 2 mg - buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets are indicated for the maintenance treatment of opioid dependence. buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets should be used as part of a complete treatment plan that includes counseling and psychosocial support. buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets are contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to buprenorphine or naloxone as serious adverse reactions, including anaphylactic shock, have been reported [see warnings and precautions (5.9)] . risk summary the data on use of buprenorphine, one of the active ingredients in buprenorphine and naloxone 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]. the extremely limited data on sublingual naloxone exposure in pregnancy are not sufficient to evaluate a drug-associated risk. reproductive and developmental studies in rats and rabbits identified adverse events at clinically relevant and higher doses. embryo-fetal 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 to 4% and 15 to 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 and naloxone 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/m 2 ) to the human sublingual dose of 16 mg buprenorphine via buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets. effects on embryo-fetal development were studied in sprague-dawley rats and russian white rabbits following oral (1:1) and intramuscular (im) (3:2) administration of mixtures of buprenorphine and naloxone during the period of organogenesis. following oral administration to rats, no teratogenic effects were observed at buprenorphine doses up to 250 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure approximately 150 times, the human sublingual dose of 16 mg) in the presence of maternal toxicity (mortality). following oral administration to rabbits, no teratogenic effects were observed at buprenorphine doses up to 40 mg/kg/day (estimated exposure approximately 50 times the human sublingual dose of 16 mg) in the absence of clear maternal toxicity. 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 postnatal 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. there are no data on the combination product buprenorphine/naloxone in breastfeeding, however oral absorption of naloxone is limited. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets 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 and naloxone sublingual tablets have not been established in pediatric patients. this product is not appropriate for the treatment of neonatal abstinence syndrome in neonates, because it contains naloxone, an opioid antagonist. clinical studies of buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets, buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual film, or buprenorphine sublingual tablets 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 and naloxone 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 effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine and naloxone has been evaluated in a pharmacokinetic study. both drugs are extensively metabolized in the liver. while no clinically significant changes have been observed in subjects with mild hepatic impairment; the plasma levels have been shown to be higher and half-life values have been shown to be longer for both buprenorphine and naloxone in subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment. the magnitude of the effects on naloxone are greater than that on buprenorphine in both moderately and severely impaired subjects. the difference in magnitude of the effects on naloxone and buprenorphine are greater in subjects with severe hepatic impairment than in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment, and therefore the clinical impact of these effects is likely to be greater in patients with severe hepatic impairment than in patients with moderate hepatic impairment. buprenorphine/naloxone products should be avoided in patients with severe hepatic impairment and may not be appropriate for patients with moderate hepatic impairment [see 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. the effects of renal failure on naloxone pharmacokinetics are unknown. buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets contain 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 with, or referred to, 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) and naloxone (nal ox’ one) sublingual tablets (ciii) this “instructions for use” contains information on how to correctly take buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets. important information you need to know before taking buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets: - your healthcare provider should show you how to take buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets the right way. preparing to take buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets: - put the tablets under your tongue. let them dissolve completely. - while buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets are 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 medicines in buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets are absorbed. - after buprenorphine and naloxone 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 and naloxone 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 and naloxone 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 and naloxone sublingual tablets the right way. if you take too much buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual tablets or overdose, call poison control or get emergency medical help right away. storing buprenorphine and naloxone

actavis pharma, inc. - pentazocine hydrochloride (unii: a36bxo4ppx) (pentazocine - unii:rp4a60d26l), naloxone hydrochloride (unii: f850569pqr) (naloxone - unii:36b82amq7n) - pentazocine 50 mg - pentazocine and naloxone tablets are indicated for the management of pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic and for which alternative treatments are inadequate. limitations of use because of the risks of addiction, abuse, and misuse, with opioids, which can occur at any dosage or duration, reserve pentazocine and naloxone tablets for use in patients for whom alternative treatment options [e.g., non-opioid analgesics] - have not been tolerated, or are not expected to be tolerated, - have not provided adequate analgesia, or are not expected to provide adequate analgesia. pentazocine and naloxone tablets should not be used for an extended period of time unless the pain remains severe enough to require an opioid analgesic and for which alternative treatment options continue to be inadequate. pentazocine and naloxone tablets are contraindicated in patients with: - significant respiratory depression [see warnings ] - acute or severe bronchial asthma in an unmonitored setting or in the absence of resuscitative equipment [see warnings ] - patients with known or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction, including paralytic ileus [see warnings ] - patients with hypersensitivity to either pentazocine, naloxone, or any of the formulation excipients (e.g., anaphylaxis) [see warnings ]. pentazocine and naloxone tablets contain pentazocine, a schedule iv controlled substance. pentazocine and naloxone tablets contains pentazocine, a substance with high potential for misuse and abuse, which can lead to the development of substance use disorder, including addiction [see warnings] . misuse is the intentional use, for therapeutic purposes, of a drug by an individual in a way other than prescribed by a healthcare provider or for whom it was not prescribed. abuse is the intentional, non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, for its desirable psychological or physiological effects. 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 pentazocine and naloxone tablets increases risk of overdose, which may lead to central nervous system and respiratory depression, hypotension, seizures, and death. the risk is increased with concurrent abuse of pentazocine and naloxone tablets with alcohol and other cns depressants. abuse of and addiction to opioids in some individuals may not be accompanied by concurrent tolerance and symptoms of physical dependence. in addition, abuse of opioids can occur in the absence of addiction. all patients treated with opioids require careful and frequent reevaluation for signs of misuse, abuse, and addiction, because use of opioid analgesic products carries the risk of addiction even under appropriate medical use. patients at high risk of pentazocine and naloxone tablets abuse include those with a history of prolonged use of any opioid, including products containing pentazocine, those with a history of drug or alcohol abuse, or those who use pentazocine and naloxone tablets in combination with other abused drugs. “drug-seeking” behavior is very common in persons with substance use disorders. drug-seeking tactics include emergency calls or visits near the end of office hours, refusal to undergo appropriate examination, testing, or referral, repeated “loss” of prescriptions, tampering with prescriptions, and reluctance to provide prior medical records or contact information for other treating health care provider(s). “doctor shopping” (visiting multiple prescribers to obtain additional prescriptions) is common among people who abuse drugs and people with substance use disorder. preoccupation with achieving adequate pain relief can be appropriate behavior in a patient with inadequate pain control. pentazocine and naloxone tablets, like other opioids, can be diverted for nonmedical use into illicit channels of distribution. careful record-keeping of prescribing information, including quantity, frequency, and renewal requests, as required by state and federal law, is strongly advised. proper assessment of the patient, proper prescribing practices, periodic reevaluation of therapy, and proper dispensing and storage are appropriate measures that help to limit abuse of opioid drugs. risks specific to abuse of pentazocine and naloxone tablets abuse of pentazocine and naloxone tablets poses a risk of overdose and death. the risk is increased with concurrent use of pentazocine and naloxone tablets with alcohol and/or other cns depressants. parenteral drug abuse is commonly associated with transmission of infectious diseases such as hepatitis and hiv. both tolerance and physical dependence can develop during use of opioid therapy. 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). physical dependence is a state that develops as a result of a 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 may be precipitated through the administration of drugs with opioid antagonist activity (e.g., naloxone), mixed agonist/antagonist analgesics (e.g., pentazocine, butorphanol, nalbuphine), or partial agonists (e.g., buprenorphine). physical dependence may not occur to a clinically significant degree until after several days to weeks of continued use. do not abruptly discontinue pentazocine and naloxone tablets in a patient physically dependent on opioids. rapid tapering of pentazocine and naloxone tablets in a patient physically dependent on opioids may lead to serious withdrawal symptoms, uncontrolled pain, and suicide. rapid discontinuation has also been associated with attempts to find other sources of opioid analgesics, which may be confused with drug-seeking for abuse. when discontinuing pentazocine and naloxone tablets, gradually taper the dosage using a patient-specific plan that considers the following: the dose of pentazocine and naloxone tablets the patient has been taking, the duration of treatment, and the physical and psychological attributes of the patient. to improve the likelihood of a successful taper and minimize withdrawal symptoms, it is important that the opioid tapering schedule is agreed upon by the patient. in patients taking opioids for an extended period of time at high doses, ensure that a multimodal approach to pain management, including mental health support (if needed), is in place prior to initiating an opioid analgesic taper [see dosage and administration , warnings ] . infants born to mothers physically dependent on opioids will also be physically dependent and may exhibit respiratory difficulties and withdrawal signs [see pregnancy ] .
