lupin pharmaceuticals,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 [see warnings], 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. controlled substance pentazocine and naloxone tablets contain pentazocine, a schedule iv controlled substance. abuse pentazocine and naloxone tablets contain pentazocine, a substance with a 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 a 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 healthcare 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. parental 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].

pd-rx pharmaceuticals, inc. - ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (unii: 4ba73m5e37) (ciprofloxacin - unii:5e8k9i0o4u) - ciprofloxacin 500 mg - ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of skin and skin structure infections caused by escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumoniae, enterobacter cloacae, proteus mirabilis, proteus vulgaris, providencia stuartii, morganella morganii, citrobacter freundii, pseudomonas aeruginosa, methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus epidermidis, or streptococcus pyogenes. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of bone and joint infections caused by enterobacter cloacae, serratia marcescens, or pseudomonas aeruginosa. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infections (used in combination with metronidazole) caused by escherichia coli, pseudomonas aeruginosa, proteus mirabilis, klebsiella pneumoniae, or bacteroides fragilis. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of infectious diarrhea caused by escherichia coli (enterotoxigenic isolates), campylobacter jejuni, shigella boydii † , shigella dysenteriae, shigella flexneri or shigella sonnei † when antibacterial therapy is indicated. † although treatment of infections due to this organism in this organ system demonstrated a clinically significant outcome, efficacy was studied in fewer than 10 patients. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of typhoid fever (enteric fever ) caused by salmonella typhi. the efficacy of ciprofloxacin in the eradication of the chronic typhoid carrier state has not been demonstrated. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of uncomplicated cervical and urethral gonorrhea due to neisseria gonorrhoeae [see warnings and precautions ( 5.16 )]. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adults and pediatric patients from birth to 17 years of age for inhalational anthrax (post-exposure) to reduce the incidence or progression of disease following exposure to aerosolized bacillus anthracis. ciprofloxacin serum concentrations achieved in humans served as a surrogate endpoint reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit and provided the initial basis for approval of this indication. 1 supportive clinical information for ciprofloxacin for anthrax post-exposure prophylaxis was obtained during the anthrax bioterror attacks of october 2001 [see clinical studies ( 14.2 )]. ciprofloxacin is indicated for treatment of plague, including pneumonic and septicemic plague, due to yersinia pestis (y. pestis) and prophylaxis for plague in adults and pediatric patients from birth to 17 years of age. efficacy studies of ciprofloxacin could not be conducted in humans with plague for feasibility reasons. therefore this indication is based on an efficacy study conducted in animals only [see clinical studies ( 14.3 )] . ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis caused by escherichia coli or proteus mirabilis. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of lower respiratory tract infections caused by escherichia coli, klebsiella pneumoniae, enterobacter cloacae, proteus mirabilis, pseudomonas aeruginosa, haemophilus influenzae, haemophilus parainfluenzae, or streptococcus pneumoniae. ciprofloxacin is not a drug of first choice in the treatment of presumed or confirmed pneumonia secondary to streptococcus pneumoniae. ciprofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (aecb) caused by moraxella catarrhalis. because fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin, have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see warnings and precautions ( 5.1– 5.15 )] and for some patients aecb is self-limiting, reserve ciprofloxacin for treatment of aecb in patients who have no alternative treatment options. urinary tract infections in adults ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of urinary tract infections caused by escherichia coli , klebsiella pneumoniae , enterobacter cloacae , serratia marcescens , proteus mirabilis , providencia rettgeri , morganella morganii , citrobacter koseri , citrobacter freundii , pseudomonas aeruginosa , methicillin-susceptible staphylococcus epidermidis , staphylococcus saprophyticus , or enterococcus faecalis . acute uncomplicated cystitis ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult female patients for treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis caused by escherichia coli or staphylococcus saprophyticus. because fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin, have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see warnings and precautions ( 5.1- 5.15)] and for some patients acute uncomplicated cystitis is self-limiting, reserve ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options. complicated urinary tract infection and pyelonephritis in pediatric patients ciprofloxacin is indicated in pediatric patients aged one to 17 years of age for treatment of complicated urinary tract infections (cuti) and pyelonephritis due to escherichia coli [see use in specific populations ( 8.4 )] . although effective in clinical trials, ciprofloxacin is not a drug of first choice in the pediatric population due to an increased incidence of adverse reactions compared to controls, including reactions related to joints and/or surrounding tissues. ciprofloxacin, like other fluoroquinolones, is associated with arthropathy and histopathological changes in weight-bearing joints of juvenile animals [see warnings and precautions ( 5.12 ), adverse reactions ( 6.1 ), use in specific populations ( 8.4 ) and nonclinical toxicology ( 13.2 )]. ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of acute sinusitis caused by or ciprofloxacin is indicated in adult patients for treatment of acute sinusitis caused by haemophilus influenzae, streptococcus pneumoniae, or moraxella catarrhalis. because fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin, have been associated with serious adverse reactions and for some patients acute sinusitis is self-limiting, reserve ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute sinusitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options. because fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin, have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see warnings and precautions ( 5.1- 5.15 )] and for some patients acute sinusitis is self-limiting, reserve ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute sinusitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options. to reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of ciprofloxacin and other antibacterial drugs, ciprofloxacin should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. when culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. in the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. if anaerobic organisms are suspected of contributing to the infection, appropriate therapy should be administered. appropriate culture and susceptibility tests should be performed before treatment in order to isolate and identify organisms causing infection and to determine their susceptibility to ciprofloxacin. therapy with ciprofloxacin may be initiated before results of these tests are known; once results become available appropriate therapy should be continued. as with other drugs, some isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa may develop resistance fairly rapidly during treatment with ciprofloxacin. culture and susceptibility testing performed periodically during therapy will provide information not only on the therapeutic effect of the antimicrobial agent but also on the possible emergence of bacterial resistance. ciprofloxacin is contraindicated in persons with a history of hypersensitivity to ciprofloxacin, any member of the quinolone class of antibacterials, or any of the product components [see warnings and precautions ( 5.7 )]. concomitant administration with tizanidine is contraindicated [see drug interactions ( 7 )]. pregnancy category c there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. ciprofloxacin should not be used during pregnancy unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to both fetus and mother. an expert review of published data on experiences with ciprofloxacin use during pregnancy by teris–the teratogen information system–concluded that therapeutic doses during pregnancy are unlikely to pose a substantial teratogenic risk (quantity and quality of data=fair), but the data are insufficient to state that there is no risk. 2 a controlled prospective observational study followed 200 women exposed to fluoroquinolones (52.5% exposed to ciprofloxacin and 68% first trimester exposures) during gestation. 3 in utero exposure to fluoroquinolones during embryogenesis was not associated with increased risk of major malformations. the reported rates of major congenital malformations were 2.2% for the fluoroquinolone group and 2.6% for the control group (background incidence of major malformations is 1–5%). rates of spontaneous abortions, prematurity and low birth weight did not differ between the groups and there were no clinically significant musculoskeletal dysfunctions up to one year of age in the ciprofloxacin exposed children. another prospective follow-up study reported on 549 pregnancies with fluoroquinolone exposure (93% first trimester exposures). 4 there were 70 ciprofloxacin exposures, all within the first trimester. the malformation rates among live-born babies exposed to ciprofloxacin and to fluoroquinolones overall were both within background incidence ranges. no specific patterns of congenital abnormalities were found. the study did not reveal any clear adverse reactions due to in utero exposure to ciprofloxacin. no differences in the rates of prematurity, spontaneous abortions, or birth weight were seen in women exposed to ciprofloxacin during pregnancy. 2, 3 however, these small postmarketing epidemiology studies, of which most experience is from short term, first trimester exposure, are insufficient to evaluate the risk for less common defects or to permit reliable and definitive conclusions regarding the safety of ciprofloxacin in pregnant women and their developing fetuses. reproduction studies have been performed in rats and mice using oral doses up to 100 mg/kg (0.6 and 0.3 times the maximum daily human dose based upon body surface area, respectively) and have revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus due to ciprofloxacin. in rabbits, oral ciprofloxacin dose levels of 30 and 100 mg/kg (approximately 0.4- and 1.3-times the highest recommended therapeutic dose based upon body surface area) produced gastrointestinal toxicity resulting in maternal weight loss and an increased incidence of abortion, but no teratogenicity was observed at either dose level. after intravenous administration of doses up to 20 mg/kg (approximately 0.3-times the highest recommended therapeutic dose based upon body surface area), no maternal toxicity was produced and no embryo toxicity or teratogenicity was observed. ciprofloxacin is excreted in human milk. the amount of ciprofloxacin absorbed by the nursing infant is unknown. because of the potential risk of serious adverse reactions (including articular damage) in infants nursing from mothers taking ciprofloxacin, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother. although effective in clinical trials, ciprofloxacin is not a drug of first choice in the pediatric population due to an increased incidence of adverse reactions compared to controls. quinolones, including ciprofloxacin, cause arthropathy in juvenile animals [see warnings and precautions ( 5.12 ) and nonclinical toxicology ( 13.2)] . complicated urinary tract infection and pyelonephritis ciprofloxacin is indicated for the treatment of cuti and pyelonephritis due to escherichia coli in pediatric patients 1 to 17 years of age. although effective in clinical trials, ciprofloxacin is not a drug of first choice in the pediatric population due to an increased incidence of adverse reactions compared to the controls, including events related to joints and/or surrounding tissues [see adverse reactions ( 6.1 ) and clinical studies ( 14.1 )]. inhalational anthrax (post-exposure) ciprofloxacin is indicated in pediatric patients from birth to 17 years of age, for inhalational anthrax (post exposure). the risk-benefit assessment indicates that administration of ciprofloxacin to pediatric patients is appropriate [see dosage and administration ( 2.2 ) and clinical studies ( 14.2 )]. plague ciprofloxacin is indicated in pediatric patients from birth to 17 years of age, for treatment of plague, including pneumonic and septicemic plague due to yersinia pestis (y. pestis) and prophylaxis for plague. efficacy studies of ciprofloxacin could not be conducted in humans with pneumonic plague for feasibility reasons. therefore, approval of this indication was based on an efficacy study conducted in animals. the risk-benefit assessment indicates that administration of ciprofloxacin to pediatric patients is appropriate [see indications and usage ( 1.8 ), dosage and administration ( 2.2 ) and clinical studies ( 14.3 )]. geriatric patients are at increased risk for developing severe tendon disorders including tendon rupture when being treated with a fluoroquinolone such as ciprofloxacin. this risk is further increased in patients receiving concomitant corticosteroid therapy. tendinitis or tendon rupture can involve the achilles, hand, shoulder, or other tendon sites and can occur during or after completion of therapy; cases occurring up to several months after fluoroquinolone treatment have been reported. caution should be used when prescribing ciprofloxacin to elderly patients especially those on corticosteroids. patients should be informed of this potential adverse reaction and advised to discontinue ciprofloxacin and contact their healthcare provider if any symptoms of tendinitis or tendon rupture occur . [see boxed warning , warnings and precautions ( 5.2 ), and adverse reactions ( 6.2 )]. in a retrospective analysis of 23 multiple-dose controlled clinical trials of ciprofloxacin encompassing over 3500 ciprofloxacin-treated patients, 25% of patients were greater than or equal to 65 years of age and 10% were greater than or equal to 75 years of age. 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 on any drug therapy cannot be ruled out. ciprofloxacin is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. no alteration of dosage is necessary for patients greater than 65 years of age with normal renal function. however, since some older individuals experience reduced renal function by virtue of their advanced age, care should be taken in dose selection for elderly patients, and renal function monitoring may be useful in these patients [see dosage and administration ( 2.3 ) and clinical pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. in general, elderly patients may be more susceptible to drug-associated effects on the qt interval. therefore, precaution should be taken when using ciprofloxacin with concomitant drugs that can result in prolongation of the qt interval (for example, class ia or class iii antiarrhythmics) or in patients with risk factors for torsade de pointes (for example, known qt prolongation, uncorrected hypokalemia) [see warnings and precautions ( 5.11 )]. ciprofloxacin is eliminated primarily by renal excretion; however, the drug is also metabolized and partially cleared through the biliary system of the liver and through the intestine. these alternative pathways of drug elimination appear to compensate for the reduced renal excretion in patients with renal impairment. nonetheless, some modification of dosage is recommended, particularly for patients with severe renal dysfunction [see dosage and administration ( 2.3 ) and clinical pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. in preliminary studies in patients with stable chronic liver cirrhosis, no significant changes in ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics have been observed. the pharmacokinetics of ciprofloxacin in patients with acute hepatic insufficiency, have not been studied.
