amneal pharmaceuticals ny llc - chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride (unii: mfm6k1xwdk) (chlordiazepoxide - unii:6rz6xez3cr), clidinium bromide (unii: 91zqw5jf1z) (clidinium - unii:bo76jf850n) - chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules are indicated to control emotional and somatic factors in gastrointestinal disorders. chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules may also be used as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of peptic ulcer and in the treatment of the irritable bowel syndrome (irritable colon, spastic colon, mucous colitis) and acute enterocolitis. chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules are contraindicated in the presence of glaucoma (since the anticholinergic component may produce some degree of mydriasis) and in patients with prostatic hypertrophy and benign bladder neck obstruction. it is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and/or clidinium bromide. chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules contain chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, a schedule iv controlled substance and clidinium bromide, which is not a controlled substance. chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules are exempted from schedule iv and is not controlled under the controlled substances act. chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, a component of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules, is a cns depressant with a potential for abuse and addiction. abuse is the intentional, non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, for its desirable psychological or physiological effects. misuse is the intentional use, for therapeutic purposes, of a drug by an individual in a way other than prescribed by a health care provider or for whom it was not prescribed. 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. even taking benzodiazepines as prescribed may put patients at risk for abuse and misuse of their medication. abuse and misuse of benzodiazepines may lead to addiction. abuse and misuse of benzodiazepines often (but not always) involve the use of doses greater than the maximum recommended dosage and commonly involve concomitant use of other medications, alcohol, and/or illicit substances, which is associated with an increased frequency of serious adverse outcomes, including respiratory depression, overdose, or death. benzodiazepines are often sought by individuals who abuse drugs and other substances, and by individuals with addictive disorders (see warnings ). the following adverse reactions have occurred with benzodiazepine abuse and/or misuse: abdominal pain, amnesia, anorexia, anxiety, aggression, ataxia, blurred vision, confusion, depression, disinhibition, disorientation, dizziness, euphoria, impaired concentration and memory, indigestion, irritability, muscle pain, slurred speech, tremors, and vertigo. the following severe adverse reactions have occurred with benzodiazepine abuse and/or misuse: delirium, paranoia, suicidal ideation and behavior, seizures, coma, breathing difficulty, and death. death is more often associated with polysubstance use (especially benzodiazepines with other cns depressants such as opioids and alcohol). physical dependence chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules may produce physical dependence from continued therapy. 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. abrupt discontinuation or rapid dosage reduction of benzodiazepines or administration of flumazenil, a benzodiazepine antagonist, may precipitate acute withdrawal reactions, including seizures, which can be life-threatening. patients at an increased risk of withdrawal adverse reactions after benzodiazepine discontinuation or rapid dosage reduction include those who take higher dosages (i.e., higher and/or more frequent doses) and those who have had longer durations of use (see warnings ). to reduce the risk of withdrawal reactions, use a gradual taper to discontinue chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules or reduce the dosage (see warnings and dosage and administration ). acute withdrawal signs and symptoms acute withdrawal signs and symptoms associated with benzodiazepines have included abnormal involuntary movements, anxiety, blurred vision, depersonalization, depression, derealization, dizziness, fatigue, gastrointestinal adverse reactions (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss, decreased appetite), headache, hyperacusis, hypertension, irritability, insomnia, memory impairment, muscle pain and stiffness, panic attacks, photophobia, restlessness, tachycardia, and tremor. more severe acute withdrawal signs and symptoms, including life-threatening reactions, have included catatonia, convulsions, delirium tremens, depression, hallucinations, mania, psychosis, seizures and suicidality. protracted withdrawal syndrome protracted withdrawal syndrome associated with benzodiazepines is characterized by anxiety, cognitive impairment, depression, insomnia, formication, motor symptoms (e.g., weakness, tremor, muscle twitches), paresthesia, and tinnitus that persists beyond 4 to 6 weeks after initial benzodiazepine withdrawal. protracted withdrawal symptoms may last weeks to more than 12 months. as a result, there may be difficulty in differentiating withdrawal symptoms from potential re-emergence or continuation of symptoms for which the benzodiazepine was being used. tolerance to chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules may develop from continued 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). tolerance to the therapeutic effects of chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride and clidinium bromide capsules may develop; however, little tolerance develops to the amnestic reactions and other cognitive impairments caused by benzodiazepines.

amneal pharmaceuticals llc - warfarin sodium (unii: 6153cwm0cl) (warfarin - unii:5q7zvv76ei) - warfarin sodium 1 mg - warfarin sodium tablets are indicated for: - prophylaxis and treatment of venous thrombosis and its extension, pulmonary embolism (pe). - prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic complications associated with atrial fibrillation (af) and/or cardiac valve replacement. - reduction in the risk of death, recurrent myocardial infarction (mi), and thromboembolic events such as stroke or systemic embolization after myocardial infarction. limitations of use warfarin sodium tablets have no direct effect on an established thrombus, nor does it reverse ischemic tissue damage. once a thrombus has occurred, however, the goals of anticoagulant treatment are to prevent further extension of the formed clot and to prevent secondary thromboembolic complications that may result in serious and possibly fatal sequelae. warfarin sodium is contraindicated in: - pregnancy warfarin sodium is contraindicated in women who are pregnant except in pregnant women with mechanical heart valves, who are at high risk of thromboembolism [see warnings and precautions (5.7) and use in specific populations (8.1)] . warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. warfarin sodium exposure during pregnancy causes a recognized pattern of major congenital malformations (warfarin embryopathy and fetotoxicity), fatal fetal hemorrhage, and an increased risk of spontaneous abortion and fetal mortality. if warfarin sodium is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus [see use in specific populations (8.1)] .  warfarin sodium is contraindicated in patients with: - hemorrhagic tendencies or blood dyscrasias - recent or contemplated surgery of the central nervous system or eye, or traumatic surgery resulting in large open surfaces [see warnings and precautions (5.8)] - bleeding tendencies associated with: − active ulceration or overt bleeding of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or respiratory tract − central nervous system hemorrhage − cerebral aneurysms, dissecting aorta − pericarditis and pericardial effusions − bacterial endocarditis − active ulceration or overt bleeding of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or respiratory tract − central nervous system hemorrhage − cerebral aneurysms, dissecting aorta − pericarditis and pericardial effusions − bacterial endocarditis - threatened abortion, eclampsia, and preeclampsia - unsupervised patients with conditions associated with potential high level of non-compliance - spinal puncture and other diagnostic or therapeutic procedures with potential for uncontrollable bleeding - hypersensitivity to warfarin or to any other components of this product (e.g., anaphylaxis) [see adverse reactions (6)] - major regional or lumbar block anesthesia - malignant hypertension risk summary warfarin sodium is contraindicated in women who are pregnant except in pregnant women with mechanical heart valves, who are at high risk of thromboembolism, and for whom the benefits of warfarin sodium may outweigh the risks [see warnings and precautions (5.7)] . warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm. exposure to warfarin during the first trimester of pregnancy caused a pattern of congenital malformations in about 5% of exposed offspring. because these data were not collected in adequate and well-controlled studies, this incidence of major birth defects is not an adequate basis for comparison to the estimated incidences in the control group or the u.s. general population and may not reflect the incidences observed in practice. consider the benefits and risks of warfarin sodium and possible risks to the fetus when prescribing warfarin sodium to a pregnant woman. adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. 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 fetal/neonatal adverse reactions in humans, warfarin crosses the placenta, and concentrations in fetal plasma approach the maternal values. exposure to warfarin during the first trimester of pregnancy caused a pattern of congenital malformations in about 5% of exposed offspring. warfarin embryopathy is characterized by nasal hypoplasia with or without stippled epiphyses (chondrodysplasia punctata) and growth retardation (including low birth weight). central nervous system and eye abnormalities have also been reported, including dorsal midline dysplasia characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, dandy-walker malformation, midline cerebellar atrophy, and ventral midline dysplasia characterized by optic atrophy. mental retardation, blindness, schizencephaly, microcephaly, hydrocephalus, and other adverse pregnancy outcomes have been reported following warfarin exposure during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy [see contraindications (4)]. risk summary warfarin was not present in human milk from mothers treated with warfarin from a limited published study. because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including bleeding in a breastfed infant, consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for warfarin sodium and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from warfarin sodium or from the underlying maternal condition before prescribing warfarin sodium to a lactating woman. clinical considerations monitor breastfeeding infants for bruising or bleeding. data human data based on published data in 15 nursing mothers, warfarin was not detected in human milk. among the 15 full-term newborns, 6 nursing infants had documented prothrombin times within the expected range. prothrombin times were not obtained for the other 9 nursing infants. effects in premature infants have not been evaluated. pregnancy testing warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm [see use in specific populations (8.1)]. verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating warfarin sodium therapy. contraception females advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 1 month after the final dose of warfarin sodium.  adequate and well-controlled studies with warfarin sodium have not been conducted in any pediatric population, and the optimum dosing, safety, and efficacy in pediatric patients is unknown. pediatric use of warfarin sodium is based on adult data and recommendations, and available limited pediatric data from observational studies and patient registries. pediatric patients administered warfarin sodium should avoid any activity or sport that may result in traumatic injury. the developing hemostatic system in infants and children results in a changing physiology of thrombosis and response to anticoagulants. dosing of warfarin in the pediatric population varies by patient age, with infants generally having the highest, and adolescents having the lowest milligram per kilogram dose requirements to maintain target inrs. because of changing warfarin requirements due to age, concomitant medications, diet, and existing medical condition, target inr ranges may be difficult to achieve and maintain in pediatric patients, and more frequent inr determinations are recommended. bleeding rates varied by patient population and clinical care center in pediatric observational studies and patient registries. infants and children receiving vitamin k-supplemented nutrition, including infant formulas, may be resistant to warfarin therapy, while human milk-fed infants may be sensitive to warfarin therapy. of the total number of patients receiving warfarin sodium in controlled clinical trials for which data were available for analysis, 1885 patients (24.4%) were 65 years and older, while 185 patients (2.4%) were 75 years and older. no overall differences in effectiveness or safety were observed between these patients and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. patients 60 years or older appear to exhibit greater than expected inr response to the anticoagulant effects of warfarin [see clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . warfarin sodium is contraindicated in any unsupervised patient with senility. conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding with administration of warfarin sodium to elderly patients in any situation or with any physical condition where added risk of hemorrhage is present. consider lower initiation and maintenance doses of warfarin sodium in elderly patients [see dosage and administration (2.2, 2.3)] . renal clearance is considered to be a minor determinant of anticoagulant response to warfarin. no dosage adjustment is necessary for patients with renal impairment. instruct patients with renal impairment taking warfarin to monitor their inr more frequently [see warnings and precautions (5.4)] . hepatic impairment can potentiate the response to warfarin through impaired synthesis of clotting factors and decreased metabolism of warfarin. conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding when using warfarin sodium in these patients.

amneal pharmaceuticals llc - diclofenac sodium (unii: qtg126297q) (diclofenac - unii:144o8ql0l1) - diclofenac sodium 16.05 mg in 1 ml - diclofenac sodium topical solution is indicated for the treatment of signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee(s). diclofenac sodium topical solution is contraindicated in the following patients: - known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reactions and serious skin reactions) to diclofenac or any components of the drug product [see warnings and precautions (5.7, 5.9)] . - history of asthma, urticaria, or other allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other nsaids. severe, sometimes fatal, anaphylactic reactions to nsaids have been reported in such patients [see warnings and precautions (5.7, 5.8)] . - in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (cabg) surgery [see warnings and precautions (5.1)] . risk summary use of nsaids, including diclofenac sodium topical solution, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus and fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. because of these risks, limit dose and duration of use between about 20 and 30 weeks of gestation, and avoid diclofenac sodium topical solution use at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy (see clinical considerations, data ). premature closure of fetal ductus arteriosus use of nsaids, including diclofenac sodium topical solution, at about 30 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy increases the risk of premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. oligohydramnios/neonatal renal impairment use of nsaids at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy has been associated with cases of fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. data from observational studies regarding potential embryo-fetal risks of nsaid use in women in the first or second trimesters of pregnancy are inconclusive. in animal reproduction studies, no evidence of teratogenicity was observed in mice, rats, or rabbits given diclofenac daily during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 0.6, 0.6, and 1.3 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of diclofenac sodium topical solution, despite the presence of maternal and fetal toxicity at these doses (see data). based on animal data, prostaglandins have been shown to have an important role in endometrial vascular permeability, blastocyst implantation, and decidualization. in animal studies, administration of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors such as diclofenac, resulted in increased pre- and post-implantation loss. prostaglandins also have been shown to have an important role in fetal kidney development. in published animal studies, prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors have been reported to impair kidney development when administered at clinically relevant doses. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) 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 fetal/neonatal adverse reactions premature closure of fetal ductus arteriosus: avoid use of nsaids in women at about 30 weeks gestation and later in pregnancy, because nsaids, including diclofenac sodium topical solution, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus (see data). oligohydramnios/neonatal renal impairment if an nsaid is necessary at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy, limit the use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible. if diclofenac sodium topical solution treatment extends beyond 48 hours, consider monitoring with ultrasound for oligohydramnios. if oligohydramnios occurs, discontinue diclofenac sodium topical solution and follow up according to clinical practice (see data) . labor or delivery there are no studies on the effects of diclofenac sodium topical solution during labor or delivery. in animal studies, nsaids, including diclofenac, inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, cause delayed parturition, and increase the incidence of stillbirth. data human data premature closure of fetal ductus arteriosus: published literature reports that the use of nsaids at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy may cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. oligohydramnios/neonatal renal impairment: published studies and postmarketing reports describe maternal nsaid use at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy associated with fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. these adverse outcomes are seen, on average, after days to weeks of treatment, although oligohydramnios has been infrequently reported as soon as 48 hours after nsaid initiation. in many cases, but not all, the decrease in amniotic fluid was transient and reversible with cessation of the drug. there have been a limited number of case reports of maternal nsaid use and neonatal renal dysfunction without oligohydramnios, some of which were irreversible. some cases of neonatal renal dysfunction required treatment with invasive procedures, such as exchange transfusion or dialysis. methodological limitations of these postmarketing studies and reports include lack of a control group; limited information regarding dose, duration, and timing of drug exposure; and concomitant use of other medications. these limitations preclude establishing a reliable estimate of the risk of adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes with maternal nsaid use. because the published safety data on neonatal outcomes involved mostly preterm infants, the generalizability of certain reported risks to the full-term infant exposed to nsaids through maternal use is uncertain. animal data reproductive and developmental studies in animals demonstrated that diclofenac sodium administration during organogenesis did not produce teratogenicity despite the induction of maternal toxicity and fetal toxicity in mice at oral doses up to 20 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.6 times the maximum recommended human dose [mrhd] of diclofenac sodium topical solution, 154 mg/day, based on body surface area (bsa) comparison), and in rats and rabbits at oral doses up to 10 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.6 and 1.3 times, respectively, the mrhd based on bsa comparison). published reproductive and developmental studies of dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso, the solvent used in diclofenac sodium topical solution) are equivocal as to potential teratogenicity. in rats, maternally toxic doses of diclofenac were associated with dystocia, prolonged gestation, reduced fetal weights and growth, and reduced fetal survival. risk summary based on available data, diclofenac may be present in human milk. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for cataflam and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the cataflam or from the underlying maternal condition. data one woman treated orally with a diclofenac salt, 150 mg/day, had a milk diclofenac level of 100 mcg/l, equivalent to an infant dose of about 0.03 mg/kg/day. diclofenac was not detectable in breast milk in 12 women using diclofenac (after either 100 mg/day orally for 7 days or a single 50 mg intramuscular dose administered in the immediate postpartum period). infertility females based on the mechanism of action, the use of prostaglandin-mediated nsaids, including diclofenac sodium topical solution, may delay or prevent rupture of ovarian follicles, which has been associated with reversible infertility in some women. published animal studies have shown that administration prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors has the potential to disrupt prostaglandin-mediated follicular rupture required for ovulation. small studies in women treated with nsaids have also shown a reversible delay in ovulation. consider withdrawal of nsaids, including diclofenac sodium topical solution, in women who have difficulties conceiving or who are undergoing investigation of infertility. safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. elderly patients, compared to younger patients, are a greater risk for nsaid-associated serious cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and/or renal adverse reactions. if the anticipated benefit for the elderly patient outweighs these potential risks, start dosing at the low end of the dosing range, and monitor patients for adverse effects [see warnings and precautions (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.6, 5.14)] . of the 911 patients treated with diclofenac sodium topical solution in seven controlled, phase 3 clinical trials, 444 subjects were 65 years of age and over. there was no age-related difference in the incidence of adverse events. of the 793 patients treated with diclofenac sodium topical solution in one open-labeled safety trial, 334 subjects were 65 years of age and over including 107 subjects 75 and over. there was no difference in the incidence of adverse events with long-term exposure to diclofenac sodium topical solution for this elderly population. diclofenac (dye-kloe-fen-ak) sodium topical solution, usp 1.5% read the medication guide that comes with diclofenac sodium topical
