remedyrepack inc. - venlafaxine hydrochloride (unii: 7d7rx5a8mo) (venlafaxine - unii:grz5rcb1qg) - venlafaxine 150 mg - venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules are indicated in adults for the treatment of: - major depressive disorder (mdd) [see clinical studies (14.1)] - generalized anxiety disorder (gad) [see clinical studies (14.2)] - social anxiety disorder (sad) [see clinical studies (14.3)] -  panic disorder (pd) [see clinical studies (14.4)] venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules are contraindicated in patients: - with known hypersensitivity to venlafaxine hydrochloride, desvenlafaxine succinate or to any excipients in the formulation [see adverse reactions (6.2)] . -  taking, or within 14 days of stopping, maois (including the maois linezolid and intravenous methylene blue) because of the risk of serotonin syndrome [see dosage and administration (2.11), warnings and precautions (5.2), and drug interactions (7.1)] . pregnancy exposure registry there is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to antidepressants, including venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules, during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by calling the national pregnancy registry for antidepressants at 1-844-405-6185 or visiting online at https://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research­programs/pregnancyregistry/antidepressants/ . risk summary based on data from published observational studies, exposure to snris, particularly in the month before delivery, has been associated with a less than 2-fold increase in the risk of postpartum hemorrhage [see warnings and precautions (5.4) and clinical considerations] . available data from published epidemiologic studies on venlafaxine use in pregnant women have not identified a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse fetal outcomes (see data) . available data from observational studies with venlafaxine have identified a potential increased risk for preeclampsia when used during mid to late pregnancy; exposure to snris near delivery may increase the risk for postpartum hemorrhage (see clinical considerations) . there are risks associated with untreated depression in pregnancy and poor neonatal adaptation in newborns with exposure to snris, including venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules, during pregnancy (see clinical considerations) . in animal studies, there was no evidence of malformations or fetotoxicity following administration of venlafaxine during organogenesis at doses up to 2.5 times (rat) or 4 times (rabbit) the maximum recommended human daily dose on a mg/m 2 basis. postnatal mortality and decreased pup weights were observed following venlafaxine administration to pregnant rats during gestation and lactation at 2.5 times (mg/m 2 ) the maximum human daily dose. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations 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 women who discontinue antidepressants during pregnancy are more likely to experience a relapse of major depression than women who continue antidepressants. this finding is from a prospective, longitudinal study that followed 201 pregnant women with a history of major depression who were euthymic and taking antidepressants at the beginning of pregnancy. consider the risk of untreated depression when discontinuing or changing treatment with antidepressant medication during pregnancy and postpartum. maternal adverse reactions exposure to venlafaxine in mid to late pregnancy may increase the risk for preeclampsia, and exposure to venlafaxine in the month before delivery may be associated with an increased risk of postpartum hemorrhage [see warnings and precautions (5.4)]. fetal/neonatal adverse reactions neonates exposed to snris 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, tremors, jitteriness, irritability, and constant crying. these findings are consistent with either a direct toxic effect of 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) ] . monitor neonates who were exposed to venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules in the third trimester of pregnancy for drug discontinuation syndrome (see data) . data human data published epidemiological studies of pregnant women exposed to venlafaxine have not established an increased risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse developmental outcomes. methodological limitations may both fail to identify true findings and also identify findings that are not true. 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% confidence interval [ci] 1.29 to 1.91). preeclampsia was observed at venlafaxine doses equal to or greater than 75 mg per 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 per 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. animal data venlafaxine did not cause malformations in offspring of rats or rabbits given doses up to 2.5 times (rat) or 4 times (rabbit) the maximum recommended human daily dose on a mg/m 2 basis. however, in rats, there was a decrease in pup weight, an increase in stillborn pups, and an increase in pup deaths during the first 5 days of lactation, when dosing began during pregnancy and continued until weaning. the cause of these deaths is not known. these effects occurred at 2.5 times (mg/m 2 ) the maximum human daily dose. the no effect dose for rat pup mortality was 0.25 times the human dose on a mg/m 2 basis. when desvenlafaxine succinate, the major metabolite of venlafaxine, 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 fetal malformations 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. risk summary data from published literature report the presence of venlafaxine and its active metabolite in human milk and have not shown adverse reactions in breastfed infants (see data) . there are no data on the effects of venlafaxine on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules or from the underlying maternal condition. data in a lactation study conducted in 11 breastfeeding women (at a mean of 20.1 months post-partum) who were taking a mean daily dose of 194.3 mg of venlafaxine and in a lactation study conducted in 6 breastfeeding women who were taking a daily dose of 225 mg to 300 mg of venlafaxine (at a mean of 7 months post-partum), the estimated mean relative infant dose was 8.1% and 6.4% based on the sum of venlafaxine and its major metabolite, desvenlafaxine. no adverse reactions were seen in the infants. safety and effectiveness of venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules in pediatric patients have not been established. two placebo-controlled trials in 766 pediatric patients with mdd and two placebo-controlled trials in 793 pediatric patients with gad have been conducted with venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules, and the data were not sufficient to support use in pediatric patients. in the studies conducted in pediatric patients ages 6 to 17 years, the occurrence of blood pressure and cholesterol increases was considered to be clinically relevant in pediatric patients and was similar to that observed in adult patients [see warnings and precautions (5.3) , adverse reactions (6.1) ]. the following adverse reactions were also observed in pediatric patients: abdominal pain, agitation, dyspepsia, ecchymosis, epistaxis, and myalgia. although no studies have been designed to primarily assess venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules impact on the growth, development, and maturation of children and adolescents, the studies that have been done suggest that venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules may adversely affect weight and height [see warnings and precautions (5.10 , 5.11) ] . decreased appetite and weight loss were observed in placebo-controlled studies of pediatric patients 6 to 17 years. in pediatric clinical studies, the adverse reaction, suicidal ideation, was observed. antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric patients [see boxed warning , warnings and precautions (5.1) ] . the percentage of patients in clinical studies for venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules for mdd, gad, sad, and pd who were 65 years of age or older are shown in table 16.  no overall differences in effectiveness or safety were observed between geriatric patients and younger patients, and other reported clinical experience generally has not identified differences in response between the elderly and younger patients. however, greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. ssris and snris, including venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsules, 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)] . the pharmacokinetics of venlafaxine and odv are not substantially altered in the elderly [see clinical pharmacology (12.3) ] (see figure 1). no dose adjustment is recommended for the elderly on the basis of age alone, although other clinical circumstances, some of which may be more common in the elderly, such as renal or hepatic impairment, may warrant a dose reduction [see dosage and administration (2.8 , 2.9 )] . dosage adjustment is recommended in patients with mild (child-pugh class a), moderate (child-pugh class b), or severe (child-pugh class c) hepatic impairment or hepatic cirrhosis [see  dosage and administration (2.8)and clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . dosage adjustment is recommended in patients with mild (clcr= 60 to 89 ml/min), moderate (clcr= 30 to ­59 ml/min), or severe (clcr < 30 ml/min) renal impairment, and in patients undergoing hemodialysis [see  dosage and administration (2.9)and clinical pharmacology (12.3)]. venlafaxine hydrochloride extended-release capsule contains venlafaxine which is not a controlled substance. abuse is the intentional, non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, for its desirable psychological or physiological effects. while venlafaxine has not been systematically studied in clinical studies for its potential for abuse, there was no indication of drug-seeking behavior in the clinical studies. however, it is not possible to predict on the basis of premarketing experience the extent to which a cns-active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, providers should carefully evaluate patients for history of drug abuse and follow such patients closely, observing them for signs of misuse or abuse of venlafaxine (e.g., development of tolerance, incrementation of dose, drug-seeking behavior). 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. in vitro studies revealed that venlafaxine has virtually no affinity for opiate, benzodiazepine, phencyclidine (pcp), or n-methyl-d-aspartic acid (nmda) receptors. venlafaxine was not found to have any significant cns stimulant activity in rodents. in primate drug discrimination studies, venlafaxine showed no significant stimulant or depressant abuse liability. discontinuation effects have been reported in patients receiving venlafaxine [see  dosage and administration (2.10)and warnings and precautions (5.7)].
