MONUROL- FOSFOMYCIN TROMETHAMINE POWDER ALLERGAN, INC. ---------- MONUROL [MON’ UR OL] (FOSFOMYCIN TROMETHAMINE) GRANULES FOR ORAL SOLUTION RX ONLY DESCRIPTION MONUROL (fosfomycin tromethamine) Granules for Oral Solution contains fosfomycin tromethamine, a synthetic, broad spectrum, bactericidal antibiotic for oral administration. It is available as a single- dose sachet which contains white granules consisting of 5.631 grams of fosfomycin tromethamine (equivalent to 3 grams of fosfomycin), and the following inactive ingredients: mandarin flavor, orange flavor, saccharin, and sucrose. The contents of the sachet must be dissolved in water. Fosfomycin tromethamine, a phosphonic acid derivative, is available as (1_R_,2_S_)-(1,2-epoxypropyl)phosphonic acid, compound with 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol (1:1). It is a white granular compound with a molecular weight of 259.2. Its empirical formula is C H O P•C H NO , and its chemical structure is as follows: CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY ABSORPTION: Fosfomycin tromethamine is rapidly absorbed following oral administration and converted to the free acid, fosfomycin. Absolute oral bioavailability under fasting conditions is 37%. After a single 3-gram dose of MONUROL, the mean (± 1 SD) maximum serum concentration (C ) achieved was 26.1 (± 9.1) mcg/mL within 2 hours. The oral bioavailability of fosfomycin is reduced to 30% under fed conditions. Following a single 3-gram oral dose of MONUROL with a high-fat meal, the mean C achieved was 17.6 (± 4.4) mcg/mL within 4 hours. Cimetidine does not affect the pharmacokinetics of fosfomycin when coadministered with MONUROL. Metoclopramide lowers the serum concentrations and urinary excretion of fosfomycin when coadministered with MONUROL. (See PRECAUTIONS, DRUG INTERACTIONS.) DISTRIBUTION: The mean apparent steady-state volume of distribution (V ) is 136.1 (±44.1) L following oral administration of MONUROL. Fosfomycin is not bound to plasma proteins. Fosfomycin is distributed to the kidneys, bladder wall, prostate, and se Leer el documento completo
