torrent pharmaceuticals limited - itraconazole (unii: 304nug5gf4) (itraconazole - unii:304nug5gf4) - itraconazole capsules are indicated for the treatment of the following fungal infections in immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised patients: - blastomycosis, pulmonary and extrapulmonary - histoplasmosis, including chronic cavitary pulmonary disease and disseminated, non-meningeal histoplasmosis, and - aspergillosis, pulmonary and extrapulmonary, in patients who are intolerant of or who are refractory to amphotericin b therapy. specimens for fungal cultures and other relevant laboratory studies (wet mount, histopathology, serology) should be obtained before therapy to isolate and identify causative organisms. therapy may be instituted before the results of the cultures and other laboratory studies are known; however, once these results become available, antiinfective therapy should be adjusted accordingly. itraconazole capsules are also indicated for the treatment of the following fungal infections in non-immunocompromised patients: - onychomycosis of the toenail, with or without fingernail involvement, due to dermatophytes (tinea unguium), and - onychomycosis of the fingernail due to dermatophytes (tinea unguium). prior to initiating treatment, appropriate nail specimens for laboratory testing (koh preparation, fungal culture, or nail biopsy) should be obtained to confirm the diagnosis of onychomycosis. (see clinical pharmacology: special populations, contraindications, warnings, and adverse reactions: post-marketing experience for more information.) blastomycosis: analyses were conducted on data from two open-label, non-concurrently controlled studies (n=73 combined) in patients with normal or abnormal immune status. the median dose was 200 mg/day. a response for most signs and symptoms was observed within the first 2 weeks, and all signs and symptoms cleared between 3 and 6 months. results of these two studies demonstrated substantial evidence of the effectiveness of itraconazole for the treatment of blastomycosis compared with the natural history of untreated cases. histoplasmosis: analyses were conducted on data from two open-label, non-concurrently controlled studies (n=34 combined) in patients with normal or abnormal immune status (not including hiv-infected patients). the median dose was 200 mg/day. a response for most signs and symptoms was observed within the first 2 weeks, and all signs and symptoms cleared between 3 and 12 months. results of these two studies demonstrated substantial evidence of the effectiveness of itraconazole for the treatment of histoplasmosis, compared with the natural history of untreated cases. histoplasmosis in hiv-infected patients: data from a small number of hiv-infected patients suggested that the response rate of histoplasmosis in hiv-infected patients is similar to that of non-hiv-infected patients. the clinical course of histoplasmosis in hiv-infected patients is more severe and usually requires maintenance therapy to prevent relapse. aspergillosis: analyses were conducted on data from an open-label, "single-patient-use" protocol designed to make itraconazole available in the u.s. for patients who either failed or were intolerant of amphotericin b therapy (n=190). the findings were corroborated by two smaller open-label studies (n=31 combined) in the same patient population. most adult patients were treated with a daily dose of 200 to 400 mg, with a median duration of 3 months. results of these studies demonstrated substantial evidence of effectiveness of itraconazole as a second-line therapy for the treatment of aspergillosis compared with the natural history of the disease in patients who either failed or were intolerant of amphotericin b therapy. onychomycosis of the toenail: analyses were conducted on data from three double-blind, placebo-controlled studies (n=214 total; 110 given itraconazole capsules) in which patients with onychomycosis of the toenails received 200 mg of itraconazole capsules once daily for 12 consecutive weeks. results of these studies demonstrated mycologic cure, defined as simultaneous occurrence of negative koh plus negative culture, in 54% of patients. thirty-five percent (35%) of patients were considered an overall success (mycologic cure plus clear or minimal nail involvement with significantly decreased signs) and 14% of patients demonstrated mycologic cure plus clinical cure (clearance of all signs, with or without residual nail deformity). the mean time to overall success was approximately 10 months. twenty-one percent (21%) of the overall success group had a relapse (worsening of the global score or conversion of koh or culture from negative to positive). onychomycosis of the fingernail: analyses were conducted on data from a double-blind, placebo-controlled study (n=73 total; 37 given itraconazole capsules) in which patients with onychomycosis of the fingernails received a 1-week course of 200 mg of itraconazole capsules b.i.d., followed by a 3-week period without itraconazole, which was followed by a second 1-week course of 200 mg of itraconazole capsules b.i.d. results demonstrated mycologic cure in 61% of patients. fifty-six percent (56%) of patients were considered an overall success and 47% of patients demonstrated mycologic cure plus clinical cure. the mean time to overall success was approximately 5 months. none of the patients who achieved overall success relapsed. itraconazole capsules should not be administered for the treatment of onychomycosis in patients with evidence of ventricular dysfunction such as congestive heart failure (chf) or a history of chf. (see boxed warning, warnings, precautions: drug interactions-calcium channel blockers, adverse reactions: post-marketing experience, and clinical pharmacology: special populations.) coadministration of a number of cyp3a4 substrates are contraindicated with itraconazole. some examples of drugs for which plasma concentrations increase are: methadone, disopyramide, dofetilide, dronedarone, quinidine, isavuconazole, ergot alkaloids (such as dihydroergotamine, ergometrine (ergonovine), ergotamine, methylergometrine (methylergonovine)), irinotecan, lurasidone, oral midazolam, pimozide, triazolam, felodipine, nisoldipine, ivabradine, ranolazine, eplerenone, cisapride, naloxegol, lomitapide, lovastatin, simvastatin, avanafil, ticagrelor, finerenone, voclosporin. in addition, coadministration with colchicine, fesoterodine and solifenacin is contraindicated in subjects with varying degrees of renal or hepatic impairment, and coadministration with eliglustat is contraindicated in subjects that are poor or intermediate metabolizers of cyp2d6 and in subjects taking strong or moderate cyp2d6 inhibitors. (see precautions: drug interactions section for specific examples.) this increase in drug concentrations caused by coadministration with itraconazole may increase or prolong both the pharmacologic effects and/or adverse reactions to these drugs. for example, increased plasma concentrations of some of these drugs can lead to qt prolongation and ventricular tachyarrhythmias including occurrences of torsade de pointes , a potentially fatal arrhythmia. some specific examples are listed in precautions: drug interactions. coadministration with venetoclax is contraindicated in patients with cll/sll during the dose initiation and ramp-up phase of venetoclax due to the potential for an increased risk of tumor lysis syndrome. itraconazole should not be administered for the treatment of onychomycosis to pregnant patients or to women contemplating pregnancy. itraconazole is contraindicated for patients who have shown hypersensitivity to itraconazole. there is limited information regarding cross-hypersensitivity between itraconazole and other azole antifungal agents. caution should be used when prescribing itraconazole to patients with hypersensitivity to other azoles.

aurobindo pharma limited - fluoxetine hydrochloride (unii: i9w7n6b1kj) (fluoxetine - unii:01k63sup8d) - fluoxetine tablets are indicated for the acute and maintenance treatment of major depressive disorder in adult patients and in pediatric patients aged 8 to 18 years [see clinical studies (14.1)] . the usefulness of the drug in adult and pediatric patients receiving fluoxetine tablets for extended periods should periodically be re-evaluated [see dosage and administration (2.1)] . fluoxetine tablets are indicated for the acute and maintenance treatment of obsessions and compulsions in adult patients and in pediatric patients aged 7 to 17 years with obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd) [see clinical studies (14.2)] . the effectiveness of fluoxetine tablets in long-term use, i.e., for more than 13 weeks, has not been systematically evaluated in placebo-controlled trials. therefore, the physician who elects to use fluoxetine tablets for extended periods should periodically re-evaluate the long-term usefulness of the drug for the individual patient [see dosage and administration (2.2)] . fluoxetine tablets are indicated for the acute and maintenance treatment of binge-eating and vomiting behaviors in adult patients with moderate to severe bulimia nervosa [see clinical studies (14.3)] . the physician who elects to use fluoxetine tablets for extended periods should periodically re-evaluate the long-term usefulness of the drug for the individual patient [see dosage and administration (2.3)] . fluoxetine tablets are indicated for the acute treatment of panic disorder, with or without agoraphobia, in adult patients [see clinical studies (14.4)] . the effectiveness of fluoxetine tablets in long-term use, i.e., for more than 12 weeks, has not been established in placebo-controlled trials. therefore, the physician who elects to use fluoxetine tablets for extended periods should periodically re-evaluate the long-term usefulness of the drug for the individual patient [see dosage and administration (2.4)] . when using fluoxetine and olanzapine in combination, also refer to the contraindications section of the package insert for symbyax® . the use of maois intended to treat psychiatric disorders with fluoxetine tablets or within 5 weeks of stopping treatment with fluoxetine tablets are contraindicated because of an increased risk of serotonin syndrome. the use of fluoxetine tablets within 14 days of stopping an maoi intended to treat psychiatric disorders is also contraindicated [see dosage and administration (2.9) and warnings and precautions (5.2)] . starting fluoxetine tablets in a patient who is being treated with maois such as linezolid or intravenous methylene blue is also contraindicated because of an increased risk of serotonin syndrome [see dosage and administration (2.10) and warnings and precautions (5.2)] . the use of fluoxetine tablets are contraindicated with the following: - pimozide [see warnings and precautions (5.11) and drug interactions (7.7, 7.8)] - thioridazine [see warnings and precautions (5.11) and drug interactions (7.7, 7.8)] pimozide and thioridazine prolong the qt interval. fluoxetine tablets can increase the levels of pimozide and thioridazine through inhibition of cyp2d6. fluoxetine tablets can also prolong the qt interval. when using fluoxetine and olanzapine in combination, also refer to the use in specific populations section of the package insert for symbyax® . teratogenic effects. pregnancy category c: fluoxetine should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. all pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, or other adverse outcome regardless of drug exposure. treatment of pregnant women during the first trimester: there are no adequate and well controlled clinical studies on the use of fluoxetine in pregnant women. results of a number of published epidemiological studies assessing the risk of fluoxetine exposure during the first trimester of pregnancy have demonstrated inconsistent results. more than ten cohort studies and case-control studies failed to demonstrate an increased risk for congenital malformations overall. however, one prospective cohort study conducted by the european network of teratology information services reported an increased risk of cardiovascular malformations in infants born to women (n = 253) exposed to fluoxetine during the first trimester of pregnancy compared to infants of women (n = 1,359) who were not exposed to fluoxetine. there was no specific pattern of cardiovascular malformations. overall, however, a causal relationship has not been established. nonteratogenic effects: based on data from published observational studies, exposure to ssris, 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 (5.7) and clinical considerations] . neonates exposed to fluoxetine and other ssris or serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (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, tremor, jitteriness, irritability, and constant crying. these features are consistent with either a direct toxic effect of ssris and 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)] . infants exposed to ssris in pregnancy may have an increased risk for persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (pphn). pphn occurs in 1 to 2 per 1,000 live births in the general population and is associated with substantial neonatal morbidity and mortality. several recent epidemiological studies suggest a positive statistical association between ssri use (including fluoxetine) in pregnancy and pphn. other studies do not show a significant statistical association. physicians should also note the results of a prospective longitudinal study of 201 pregnant women with a history of major depression, who were either on antidepressants or had received antidepressants less than 12 weeks prior to their last menstrual period, and were in remission. women who discontinued antidepressant medication during pregnancy showed a significant increase in relapse of their major depression compared to those women who remained on antidepressant medication throughout pregnancy. when treating a pregnant woman with fluoxetine, the physician should carefully consider both the potential risks of taking an ssri, along with the established benefits of treating depression with an antidepressant. the decision can only be made on a case by case basis [see dosage and administration (2.7)] . maternal adverse reactions: use of fluoxetine in the month before delivery may be associated with an increased risk of postpartum hemorrhage [see warnings and precautions (5.7)]. animal data: in embryo-fetal development studies in rats and rabbits, there was no evidence of teratogenicity following administration of fluoxetine at doses up to 12.5 and     15 mg/kg/day, respectively (1.5 and 3.6 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 80 mg on a mg/m2 basis) throughout organogenesis. however, in rat reproduction studies, an increase in stillborn pups, a decrease in pup weight, and an increase in pup deaths during the first 7 days postpartum occurred following maternal exposure to 12 mg/kg/day (1.5 times the mrhd on a mg/m2 basis) during gestation or 7.5 mg/kg/day (0.9 times the mrhd on a mg/m2 basis) during gestation and lactation. there was no evidence of developmental neurotoxicity in the surviving offspring of rats treated with 12 mg/kg/day during gestation. the no-effect dose for rat pup mortality was 5 mg/kg/day (0.6 times the mrhd on a mg/m2 basis). the effect of fluoxetine on labor and delivery in humans is unknown. however, because fluoxetine crosses the placenta and because of the possibility that fluoxetine may have adverse effects on the newborn, fluoxetine should be used during labor and delivery only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. because fluoxetine is excreted in human milk, nursing while on fluoxetine is not recommended. in one breast-milk sample, the concentration of fluoxetine plus norfluoxetine was 70.4 ng/ml. the concentration in the mother’s plasma was 295 ng/ml. no adverse effects on the infant were reported. in another case, an infant nursed by a mother on fluoxetine developed crying, sleep disturbance, vomiting, and watery stools. the infant’s plasma drug levels were 340 ng/ml of fluoxetine and 208 ng/ml of norfluoxetine on the second day of feeding. use of fluoxetine in children: the efficacy of fluoxetine for the treatment of major depressive disorder was demonstrated in two 8- to 9-week placebo-controlled clinical trials with 315 pediatric outpatients ages 8 to ≤ 18 [see clinical studies (14.1)] . the efficacy of fluoxetine for the treatment of ocd was demonstrated in one 13-week placebo-controlled clinical trial with 103 pediatric outpatients ages 7 to < 18 [see clinical studies (14.2)] . the safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients < 8 years of age in major depressive disorder and < 7 years of age in ocd have not been established. fluoxetine pharmacokinetics were evaluated in 21 pediatric patients (ages 6 to ≤ 18) with major depressive disorder or ocd [see clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . the acute adverse reaction profiles observed in the three studies (n = 418 randomized; 228 fluoxetine-treated, 190 placebo-treated) were generally similar to that observed in adult studies with fluoxetine. the longer term adverse reaction profile observed in the 19-week major depressive disorder study (n = 219 randomized; 109 fluoxetine-treated, 110 placebo-treated) was also similar to that observed in adult trials with fluoxetine [see adverse reactions (6.1)] . manic reaction, including mania and hypomania, was reported in six (one mania, five hypomania) out of 228 (2.6%) fluoxetine-treated patients and in 0 out of 190 (0%) placebo-treated patients. mania/hypomania led to the discontinuation of 4 (1.8%) fluoxetine-treated patients from the acute phases of the three studies combined. consequently, regular monitoring for the occurrence of mania/hypomania is recommended. as with other ssris, decreased weight gain has been observed in association with the use of fluoxetine in children and adolescent patients. after 19 weeks of treatment in a clinical trial, pediatric subjects treated with fluoxetine gained an average of 1.1 cm less in height and 1.1 kg less in weight than subjects treated with placebo. in addition, fluoxetine treatment was associated with a decrease in alkaline phosphatase levels. the safety of fluoxetine treatment for pediatric patients has not been systematically assessed for chronic treatment longer than several months in duration. in particular, there are no studies that directly evaluate the longer term effects of fluoxetine on the growth, development and maturation of children and adolescent patients. therefore, height and weight should be monitored periodically in pediatric patients receiving fluoxetine [see warnings and precautions (5.6)] . fluoxetine is approved for use in pediatric patients with mdd and ocd [see box warning and warnings and precautions (5.1)] . anyone considering the use of fluoxetine in a child or adolescent must balance the potential risks with the clinical need. animal data: significant toxicity on muscle tissue, neurobehavior, reproductive organs, and bone development has been observed following exposure of juvenile rats to fluoxetine from weaning through maturity. oral administration of fluoxetine to rats from weaning postnatal day 21 through adulthood day 90 at 3, 10 or 30 mg/kg/day was associated with testicular degeneration and necrosis, epididymal vacuolation and hypospermia (at 30 mg/kg/day corresponding to plasma exposures [auc] approximately 5 to 10 times the average auc in pediatric patients at the mrhd of 20 mg/day), increased serum levels of creatine kinase (at auc as low as 1 to 2 times the average auc in pediatric patients at the mrhd of 20 mg/day), skeletal muscle degeneration and necrosis, decreased femur length/growth and body weight gain (at auc 5 to 10 times the average auc in pediatric patients at the mrhd of 20 mg/day). the high dose of 30 mg/kg/day exceeded a maximum tolerated dose. when animals were evaluated after a drug-free period (up to 11 weeks after cessation of dosing), fluoxetine was associated with neurobehavioral abnormalities (decreased reactivity at auc as low as approximately 0.1 to 0.2 times the average auc in pediatric patients at the mrhd and learning deficit at the high dose) and reproductive functional impairment (decreased mating at all doses and impaired fertility at the high dose). in addition, the testicular and epididymal microscopic lesions and decreased sperm concentrations found in high dose group were also observed, indicating that the drug effects on reproductive organs are irreversible. the reversibility of fluoxetine-induced muscle damage was not assessed. these fluoxetine toxicities in juvenile rats have not been observed in adult animals. plasma exposures (auc) to fluoxetine in juvenile rats receiving 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg/day doses in this study are approximately 0.1 to 0.2, 1 to 2, and 5 to 10 times, respectively, the average exposure in pediatric patients receiving the mrhd of 20 mg/day. rat exposures to the major metabolite, norfluoxetine, are approximately 0.3 to 0.8, 1 to 8, and 3 to 20 times, respectively, the pediatric exposure at the mrhd. a specific effect on bone development was reported in juvenile mice administered fluoxetine by the intraperitoneal route to 4 week old mice for 4 weeks at doses 0.5 and 2 times the oral mrhd of 20 mg/day on mg/m2 basis. there was a decrease in bone mineralization and density at both doses, but the overall growth (body weight gain or femur length) was not affected. u.s. fluoxetine clinical trials included 687 patients ≥ 65 years of age and 93 patients ≥ 75 years of age. the efficacy in geriatric patients has been established [see clinical studies (14.1)] . for pharmacokinetic information in geriatric patients, [see clinical pharmacology (12.4)] . no overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. snris and ssris, including fluoxetine, have been associated with cases of clinically significant hyponatremia in elderly patients, who may be at greater risk for this adverse reaction [see warnings and precautions (5.9)] . in subjects with cirrhosis of the liver, the clearances of fluoxetine and its active metabolite, norfluoxetine, were decreased, thus increasing the elimination half-lives of these substances. a lower or less frequent dose of fluoxetine should be used in patients with cirrhosis. caution is advised when using fluoxetine in patients with diseases or conditions that could affect its metabolism [see dosage and administration (2.7) and clinical pharmacology (12.4)] . fluoxetine has not been systematically studied, in animals or humans, for its potential for abuse, tolerance, or physical dependence. while the premarketing clinical experience with fluoxetine did not reveal any tendency for a withdrawal syndrome or any drug seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which a cns active drug will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed. consequently, physicians should carefully evaluate patients for history of drug abuse and follow such patients closely, observing them for signs of misuse or abuse of fluoxetine (e.g., development of tolerance, incrementation of dose, drug seeking behavior).
