pregabalin or any of its components. angioedema and hypersensitivity reactions have occurred in patients receiving pregabalin therapy [see warnings and precautions (5.2)]. pregnancy exposure registry there is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to pregabalin capsules during pregnancy. to provide information regarding the effects of in utero exposure to pregabalin capsules, physicians are advised to recommend that pregnant patients taking pregabalin capsules enroll in the north american antiepileptic drug (naaed) pregnancy registry. this can be done by calling the toll free number 1-888-233-2334, and must be done by patients themselves. information on the registry can also be found at the website http://www.aedpregnancyregistry.org/ . risk summary there are no adequate and well-controlled studies with pregabalin capsules in pregnant women. however, in animal reproduction studies, increased incidences of fetal structural abnormalities and other manifestations of developmental toxicity, including skeletal malformations, retarded ossification, and decreased fetal body weight were observed in the offspring of rats and rabbits given pregabalin orally during organogenesis, at doses that produced plasma pregabalin exposures (auc) greater than or equal to 16 times human exposure at the maximum recommended dose (mrd) of 600 mg/day [see data] . in an animal development study, lethality, growth retardation, and nervous and reproductive system functional impairment were observed in the offspring of rats given pregabalin during gestation and lactation. the no-effect dose for developmental toxicity was approximately twice the human exposure at mrd. the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations are unknown. however, the background risk in the u.s. general population of major birth defects is 2-4% and of miscarriage is 15-20% of clinically recognized pregnancies. advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. data animal data when pregnant rats were given pregabalin (500, 1,250, or 2,500 mg/kg) orally throughout the period of organogenesis, incidences of specific skull alterations attributed to abnormally advanced ossification (premature fusion of the jugal and nasal sutures) were increased at greater than or equal to 1,250 mg/kg, and incidences of skeletal variations and retarded ossification were increased at all doses. fetal body weights were decreased at the highest dose. the low dose in this study was associated with a plasma exposure (auc) approximately 17 times human exposure at the mrd of 600 mg/day. a no-effect dose for rat embryo-fetal developmental toxicity was not established. when pregnant rabbits were given pregabalin capsules (250, 500, or 1,250 mg/kg) orally throughout the period of organogenesis, decreased fetal body weight and increased incidences of skeletal malformations, visceral variations, and retarded ossification were observed at the highest dose. the no-effect dose for developmental toxicity in rabbits (500 mg/kg) was associated with a plasma exposure approximately 16 times human exposure at the mrd. in a study in which female rats were dosed with pregabalin capsules (50, 100, 250, 1,250, or 2,500 mg/kg) throughout gestation and lactation, offspring growth was reduced at greater than or equal to 100 mg/kg and offspring survival was decreased at greater than or equal to 250 mg/kg. the effect on offspring survival was pronounced at doses greater than or equal to 1,250 mg/kg, with 100% mortality in high-dose litters. when offspring were tested as adults, neurobehavioral abnormalities (decreased auditory startle responding) were observed at greater than or equal to 250 mg/kg and reproductive impairment (decreased fertility and litter size) was seen at 1,250 mg/kg. the no-effect dose for pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity in rats (50 mg/kg) produced a plasma exposure approximately 2 times human exposure at the mrd. in the prenatal-postnatal study in rats, pregabalin prolonged gestation and induced dystocia at exposures greater than or equal to 50 times the mean human exposure (auc (0–24) of 123 μg∙hr/ml) at themrd. risk summary small amounts of pregabalin have been detected in the milk of lactating women. a pharmacokinetic study in lactating women detected pregabalin in breast milk at average steady state concentrations approximately 76% of those in maternal plasma. the estimated average daily infant dose of pregabalin from breast milk (assuming mean milk consumption of 150 ml/kg/day) was 0.31 mg/kg/day, which on a mg/kg basis would be approximately 7% of the maternal dose [see data] . the study did not evaluate the effects of pregabalin capsules on milk production or the effects of pregabalin capsules on the breastfed infant. based on animal studies, there is a potential risk of tumorigenicity with pregabalin exposure via breast milk to the breastfed infant [see nonclinical toxicology (13.1)] . available clinical study data in patients greater than 12 years of age do not provide a clear conclusion about the potential risk of tumorigenicity with pregabalin [see warnings and precautions (5.9)] . because of the potential risk of tumorigenicity, breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with pregabalin capsules. data a pharmacokinetic study in ten lactating women, who were at least 12 weeks postpartum, evaluated the concentrations of pregabalin in plasma and breast milk. pregabalin capsules 150 mg oral capsule was given every 12 hours (300 mg daily dose) for a total of four doses. pregabalin was detected in breast milk at average steady-state concentrations approximately 76% of those in maternal plasma. the estimated average daily infant dose of pregabalin from breast milk (assuming mean milk consumption of 150 ml/kg/day) was 0.31 mg/kg/day, which on a mg/kg basis would be approximately 7% of the maternal dose. the study did not evaluate the effects of pregabalin capsules on milk production. infants did not receive breast milk obtained during the dosing period, therefore, the effects of pregabalin capsules on the breast fed infant were not evaluated. infertility male effects on spermatogenesis in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled non-inferiority study to assess the effect of pregabalin on sperm characteristics, healthy male subjects received pregabalin at a daily dose up to 600 mg (n=111) or placebo (n=109) for 13 weeks (one complete sperm cycle) followed by a 13-week washout period (off-drug). a total of 65 subjects in the pregabalin group (59%) and 62 subjects in the placebo group (57%) were included in the per protocol (pp) population. these subjects took study drug for at least 8 weeks, had appropriate timing of semen collections and did not have any significant protocol violations. among these subjects, approximately 9% of the pregabalin group (6/65) vs. 3% in the placebo group (2/62) had greater than or equal to 50% reduction in mean sperm concentrations from baseline at week 26 (the primary endpoint). the difference between pregabalin and placebo was within the pre-specified non-inferiority margin of 20%. there were no adverse effects of pregabalin on sperm morphology, sperm motility, serum fsh or serum testosterone levels as compared to placebo. in subjects in the pp population with greater than or equal to 50% reduction in sperm concentration from baseline, sperm concentrations were no longer reduced by greater than or equal to 50% in any affected subject after an additional 3 months off-drug. in one subject, however, subsequent semen analyses demonstrated reductions from baseline of greater than or equal to 50% at 9 and 12 months off- drug. the clinical relevance of these data is unknown. in the animal fertility study with pregabalin in male rats, adverse reproductive and developmental effects were observed [see nonclinical toxicology (13.1)] . neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia, and neuropathic pain associated with spinal cord injury safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. fibromyalgia safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. adjunctive therapy for partial-onset seizures safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 1 month have not been established. juvenile animal data in studies in which pregabalin (50 to 500 mg/kg) was orally administered to young rats from early in the postnatal period (postnatal day 7) through sexual maturity, neurobehavioral abnormalities (deficits in learning and memory, altered locomotor activity, decreased auditory startle responding and habituation) and reproductive impairment (delayed sexual maturation and decreased fertility in males and females) were observed at doses greater than or equal to 50 mg/kg. the neurobehavioral changes of acoustic startle persisted at greater than or equal to 250 mg/kg and locomotor activity and water maze performance at greater than or equal to 500 mg/kg in animals tested after cessation of dosing and, thus, were considered to represent long-term effects. the low effect dose for developmental neurotoxicity and reproductive impairment in juvenile rats (50 mg/kg) was associated with a plasma pregabalin exposure (auc) approximately equal to human exposure at the maximum recommended dose of 600 mg/day. a no-effect dose was not established. information describing a clinical study in which efficacy was not demonstrated in patients is approved for pfizer inc.’s lyrica® (pregabalin) products. additional pediatric use information is approved for pfizer’s lyrica (pregabalin) capsules and oral solution products. however, due to pfizer’s marketing exclusivity rights, this drug product is not labeled with that pediatric information. in controlled clinical studies of pregabalin capsules in neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, 246 patients were 65 to 74 years of age, and 73 patients were 75 years of age or older. in controlled clinical studies of pregabalin capsules in neuropathic pain associated with postherpetic neuralgia, 282 patients were 65 to 74 years of age, and 379 patients were 75 years of age or older. in controlled clinical studies of pregabalin capsules in epilepsy, there were only 10 patients 65 to 74 years of age, and 2 patients who were 75 years of age or older. no overall differences in safety and efficacy were observed between these patients and younger patients. in controlled clinical studies of pregabalin capsules in fibromyalgia, 106 patients were 65 years of age or older. although the adverse reaction profile was similar between the two age groups, the following neurological adverse reactions were more frequent in patients 65 years of age or older: dizziness, vision blurred, balance disorder, tremor, confusional state, coordination abnormal, and lethargy. pregabalin capsules are known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of toxic reactions to pregabalin capsules may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. because pregabalin capsules are eliminated primarily by renal excretion, adjust the dose for elderly patients with renal impairment [see dosage and administration (2.7)] . pregabalin capsules is eliminated primarily by renal excretion and dose adjustment is recommended for adult patients with renal impairment [see dosage and administration (2.7) and clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . the use of pregabalin capsules in pediatric patients with compromised renal function has not been studied. pregabalin capsules are a schedule v controlled substance. pregabalin capsules are not known to be active at receptor sites associated with drugs of abuse. as with any cns active drug, carefully evaluate patients for history of drug abuse and observe them for signs of pregabalin capsules misuse or abuse (e.g., development of tolerance, dose escalation, drug-seeking behavior). in a study of recreational users (n=15) of sedative/hypnotic drugs, including alcohol, pregabalin capsules (450 mg, single dose) received subjective ratings of "good drug effect," "high" and "liking" to a degree that was similar to diazepam (30 mg, single dose). in controlled clinical studies in over 5,500 patients, 4 % of pregabalin capsules-treated patients and 1 % of placebo-treated patients overall reported euphoria as an adverse reaction, though in some patient populations studied, this reporting rate was higher and ranged from 1 to 12%. in clinical studies, following abrupt or rapid discontinuation of pregabalin capsules, some patients reported symptoms including insomnia, nausea, headache or diarrhea [see warnings and precautions (5.6)] , consistent with physical dependence. in the postmarketing experience, in addition to these reported symptoms there have also been reported cases of anxiety and hyperhidrosis.
