mylan pharmaceuticals inc. - paroxetine hydrochloride (unii: x2els050d8) (paroxetine - unii:41vrh5220h) - paroxetine 10 mg - paroxetine tablets are indicated in adults for the treatment of: paroxetine tablets are contraindicated in patients: 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 (5.5) and clinical considerations] . epidemiological studies have shown that infants exposed to paroxetine in the first trimester of pregnancy have an increased risk of congenital malformations, particularly cardiovascular malformations. if paroxetine is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking paroxetine, advise the patient of the potential hazard to the fetus. unless the benefits of paroxetine to the mother justify continuing treatment, consideration should be given to either discontinuing paroxetine therapy or switching to another antidepressant [see warnings and precautions (5.7)] . for other studies have found varying results as to whether there was an increased risk of overall, cardiovascular, or specific congenital malformations. a meta-analysis of epidemiological data over a 16-year period (1992 to 2008) on first trimester paroxetine use in pregnancy and congenital malformations included the above-noted studies in addition to others (n = 17 studies that included overall malformations and n = 14 studies that included cardiovascular malformations; n = 20 distinct studies). while subject to limitations, this meta-analysis suggested an increased occurrence of cardiovascular malformations (prevalence odds ratio [por] 1.5; 95% confidence interval 1.2 to 1.9) and overall malformations (por 1.2; 95% confidence interval 1.1 to 1.4) with paroxetine use during the first trimester. it was not possible in this meta-analysis to determine the extent to which the observed prevalence of cardiovascular malformations might have contributed to that of overall malformations, nor was it possible to determine whether any specific types of cardiovascular malformations might have contributed to the observed prevalence of all cardiovascular malformations. unless the benefits of paroxetine to the mother justify continuing treatment, consideration should be given to either discontinuing paroxetine therapy or switching to another antidepressant [see warnings and precautions (5.7)] . for women who intend to become pregnant or are in their first trimester of pregnancy, paroxetine should only be initiated after consideration of the other available treatment options [see warnings and precautions (5.4)] . neonates exposed to ssris or serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (snris), including paroxetine tablets, 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)] . exposure to ssris in late pregnancy may have an increased risk for persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (pphn). pphn occurs in 1 – 2 per 1,000 live births in the general population and is associated with substantial neonatal morbidity and mortality. in a retrospective case-control study of 377 women whose infants were born with pphn and 836 women whose infants were born healthy, the risk for developing pphn was approximately six-fold higher for infants exposed to ssris after the 20th week of gestation compared to infants who had not been exposed to antidepressants during pregnancy. there have also been postmarketing reports of premature births in pregnant women exposed to paroxetine or other ssris. when treating a pregnant woman with paroxetine during the third trimester, the physician should carefully consider both the potential risks and benefits of treatment. a prospective longitudinal study of 201 women with a history of major depression who were euthymic at the beginning of pregnancy. the women who discontinued antidepressant medication during pregnancy were more likely to experience a relapse of major depression than women who continued antidepressant medication. use of paroxetine tablets in the month before delivery may be associated with an increased risk of postpartum hemorrhage [see warnings and precautions (5.5)] . reproduction studies were performed at doses up to 50 mg/kg/day in rats and 6 mg/kg/day in rabbits administered during organogenesis. these doses are approximately 6 (rat) and less than 2 (rabbit) times the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd – 75 mg) on an mg/m2 basis. these studies have revealed no evidence of developmental effects. however, in rats, there was an increase in pup deaths during the first 4 days of lactation when dosing occurred during the last trimester of gestation and continued throughout lactation. this effect occurred at a dose of 1 mg/kg/day which is than the mrhd on an mg/m2 basis. the no-effect dose for rat pup mortality was not determined. the cause of these deaths is not known. like many other drugs, paroxetine is secreted in human milk. because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from paroxetine tablets, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing infants or to discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother. the safety and effectiveness of paroxetine tablets in pediatric patients have not been established [see box warning] . effectiveness was not demonstrated in three placebo-controlled trials in 752 paroxetine tablets-treated pediatric patients with mdd. antidepressants increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric patients [see boxed warning, warnings and precautions (5.1)] . decreased appetite and weight loss have been observed in association with the use of ssris. in placebo-controlled clinical trials conducted with pediatric patients, the following adverse reactions were reported in at least 2% of pediatric patients treated with paroxetine tablets and occurred at a rate at least twice that for pediatric patients receiving placebo: emotional lability (including self-harm, suicidal thoughts, attempted suicide, crying, and mood fluctuations), hostility, decreased appetite, tremor, sweating, hyperkinesia, and agitation. adverse reactions upon discontinuation of treatment with paroxetine tablets in the pediatric clinical trials that included a taper phase regimen, which occurred in at least 2% of patients and at a rate at least twice that of placebo, were: emotional lability (including suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, mood changes, and tearfulness), nervousness, dizziness, nausea, and abdominal pain. in premarketing clinical trials with paroxetine tablets, 17% of patients treated with paroxetine tablets (approximately 700) were 65 years of age or older. pharmacokinetic studies revealed a decreased clearance in the elderly, and a lower starting dose is recommended;, however, no overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between elderly and younger patients [see dosage and administration (2.4), clinical pharmacology (12.3)] . ssris including paroxetine tablets, 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 (5.7)] . increased plasma concentrations of paroxetine occur in patients with renal and hepatic impairment. the initial dosage of paroxetine tablets should be reduced in patients with severe renal impairment and in patients with severe hepatic impairment [see dosage and administration (2.4), clinical pharmacology (12.3)] .
