bryant ranch prepack - dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride (unii: 1678ok0e08) (dexmethylphenidate - unii:m32rh9mfgp) - dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets are indicated for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) [see clinical studies (14)] . - hypersensitivity to methylphenidate or other components of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets. hypersensitivity reactions, such as angioedema and anaphylactic reactions have been reported in patients treated with methylphenidate [see adverse reactions (6.1)] . - concomitant treatment with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (maois), or within 14 days following discontinuation of treatment with an maoi, because of the risk of hypertensive crises [see drug interactions (7.1)] . pregnancy exposure registry there is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to adhd medications, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, during pregnancy. healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by calling the national pregnancy registry for adhd medications at 1-866-961-2388 or visit https://womensmentalhealth.org/adhd-medications/. risk summary dexmethylphenidate is the d-threo enantiomer of racemic methylphenidate. published studies and postmarketing reports on methylphenidate use during pregnancy have not identified a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. there may be risks to the fetus associated with the use of cns stimulants use during pregnancy (see clinical considerations) . embryo-fetal development studies in rats showed delayed fetal skeletal ossification at doses up to 5 times the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 20 mg/day given to adults based on plasma levels. a decrease in pup weight in males was observed in a pre- and post-natal development study with oral administration of methylphenidate to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses 5 times the mrhd of 20 mg/day given to adults based on plasma levels. plasma levels in adults were comparatively similar to plasma levels in adolescents (see data) . the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population 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 cns stimulants, such as dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, can cause vasoconstriction and thereby decrease placental perfusion. no fetal and/or neonatal adverse reactions have been reported with the use of therapeutic doses of methylphenidate during pregnancy; however, premature delivery and low birth weight infants have been reported in amphetamine-dependent mothers. data animal data in embryo-fetal development studies conducted in rats and rabbits, dexmethylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 20 and 100 mg/kg/day, respectively, during the period of organogenesis. no evidence of malformations was found in either the rat or rabbit study; however, delayed fetal skeletal ossification was observed at the highest dose level in rats. when dexmethylphenidate was administered to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses of up to 20 mg/kg/day, post-weaning body weight gain was decreased in male offspring at the highest dose, but no other effects on postnatal development were observed. at the highest doses tested, plasma levels [area under the curves (aucs)] of dexmethylphenidate in pregnant rats and rabbits were approximately 5 and 1 times, respectively, those in adults dosed with the mrhd of 20 mg/day. racemic methylphenidate has been shown to cause malformations (increased incidence of fetal spina bifida) in rabbits when given in doses of 200 mg/kg/day throughout organogenesis. risk summary dexmethylphenidate is the d-threo enantiomer of racemic methylphenidate. limited published literature, based on milk sampling from seven mothers reports that methylphenidate is present in human milk, which resulted in infant doses of 0.16% to 0.7% of the maternal weight-adjusted dosage and a milk/plasma ratio ranging between 1.1 and 2.7. there are no reports of adverse effects on the breastfed infant and no effects on milk production. long-term neurodevelopmental effects on infants from stimulant exposure are unknown. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets or from the underlying maternal condition. clinical considerations monitor breastfeeding infants for adverse reactions, such as agitation, insomnia, anorexia, and reduced weight gain. the safety and effectiveness of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets have been established in pediatric patients ages 6 to 17 years in two adequate and well-controlled clinical trials [see clinical studies (14)] . the safety and effectiveness of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets in pediatric patients less than 6 years have not been established. the long-term efficacy of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets in pediatric patients has not been established. long term suppression of growth growth should be monitored during treatment with stimulants, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets. pediatric patients who are not growing or gaining weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted [see warnings and precautions (5.7)] . juvenile animal toxicity data rats treated with racemic methylphenidate early in the postnatal period through sexual maturation demonstrated a decrease in spontaneous locomotor activity in adulthood. a deficit in acquisition of a specific learning task was observed in females only. the doses at which these findings were observed are at least 6 times the mrhd of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m2 basis.  in a study conducted in young rats, racemic methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 100 mg/kg/day for 9 weeks, starting early in the postnatal period (postnatal day 7) and continuing through sexual maturity (postnatal week 10). when these animals were tested as adults (postnatal weeks 13 to 14), decreased spontaneous locomotor activity was observed in males and females previously treated with 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 4 times the mrhd of 60 mg of racemic methylphenidate given to children on a mg/m2 basis) or greater, and a deficit in the acquisition of a specific learning task was seen in females exposed to the highest dose (8 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m2 basis). the no effect level for juvenile neurobehavioral development in rats was 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.5 times the mrhd given to children on a mg/m2 basis). the clinical significance of the long-term behavioral effects observed in rats is unknown. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets have not been studied in the geriatric population. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets contains dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride, a schedule ii controlled substance. cns stimulants, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, other methylphenidate-containing products, and amphetamines have a high potential for abuse. abuse is characterized by impaired control over drug use despite harm, and craving. signs and symptoms of cns stimulant abuse include increased heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and/or sweating, dilated pupils, hyperactivity, restlessness, insomnia, decreased appetite, loss of coordination, tremors, flushed skin, vomiting, and/or abdominal pain. anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed. abusers of cns stimulants may chew, snort, inject, or use other unapproved routes of administration which may result in overdose and death [see overdosage (10)] . to reduce the abuse of cns stimulants, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing. after prescribing, keep careful prescription records, educate patients and their families about abuse and on proper storage and disposal of cns stimulants [see how supplied/storage and handling (16)] , monitor for signs of abuse while on therapy, and re-evaluate the need for dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets use. tolerance tolerance (a state of adaptation in which exposure to a drug results in a reduction of the drug’s desired and/or undesired effects over time) can occur during chronic therapy with cns stimulants, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets. dependence physical dependence (which is manifested by a withdrawal syndrome produced by abrupt cessation, rapid dose reduction, or administration of an antagonist) can occur in patients treated with cns stimulants, including dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride tablets. withdrawal symptoms after abrupt cessation following prolonged high-dosage administration of cns stimulants include dysphoric mood; fatigue; vivid, unpleasant dreams; insomnia or hypersomnia; increased appetite; and psychomotor retardation or agitation.

amneal pharmaceuticals of new york llc - dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride (unii: 1678ok0e08) (dexmethylphenidate - unii:m32rh9mfgp) - dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release capsules are indicated for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) in patients aged 6 years and older. the effectiveness of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release in the treatment of adhd in patients aged 6 years and older was established in 2 placebo-controlled studies in patients meeting dsm-iv criteria for adhd [see clinical studies (14) ]. a diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd; dsm-iv) implies the presence of hyperactive-impulsive or inattentive symptoms that caused impairment and were present before age 7 years. the symptoms must cause clinically significant impairment, e.g., in social, academic, or occupational functioning, and be present in 2 or more settings, e.g., school (or work) and at home. the symptoms must not be better accounted for by another mental disorder. for the inattentive type, at least 6 of the following symptoms must have persisted for at least 6 months: lack of attention to details/careless mistakes; lack of sustained attention; poor listener; failure to follow through on tasks; poor organization; avoids tasks requiring sustained mental effort; loses things; easily distracted; forgetful. for the hyperactive-impulsive type, at least 6 of the following symptoms must have persisted for at least 6 months: fidgeting/squirming; leaving seat; inappropriate running/climbing; difficulty with quiet activities; “on the go”; excessive talking; blurting answers; can’t wait turn; intrusive. the combined types requires both inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive criteria to be met. special diagnostic considerations specific etiology of this syndrome is unknown, and there is no single diagnostic test. adequate diagnosis requires the use not only of medical but of special psychological, educational, and social resources. learning may or may not be impaired. the diagnosis must be based upon a complete history and evaluation of the child and not solely on the presence of the required number of dsm-iv characteristics. need for comprehensive treatment program dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release capsules are indicated as an integral part of a total treatment program for adhd that may include other measures (psychological, educational, social) for patients with this syndrome. drug treatment may not be indicated for all children with this syndrome. stimulants are not intended for use in the child who exhibits symptoms secondary to environmental factors and/or other primary psychiatric disorders, including psychosis. appropriate educational placement is essential and psychosocial intervention is often helpful. when remedial measures alone are insufficient, the decision to prescribe stimulant medication will depend upon the physician’s assessment of the chronicity and severity of the child’s symptoms. long-term use the effectiveness of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release for long-term use, i.e., for more than 7 weeks, has not been systematically evaluated in controlled trials. therefore, the physician who elects to use dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release for extended periods should periodically reevaluate the long-term usefulness of the drug for the individual patient [see dosage and administration (2.3 )]. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is contraindicated in patients with marked anxiety, tension, and agitation, since the drug may aggravate these symptoms. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is contraindicated in patients known to be hypersensitive to methylphenidate, or other components of the product. hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema and anaphylactic reactions, have been observed in patients treated with methylphenidate [see adverse reactions (6.5, 6.6 )]. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is contraindicated in patients with glaucoma. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is contraindicated in patients with motor tics or with a family history or diagnosis of tourette’s syndrome [see adverse reactions (6.1) ]. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is contraindicated during treatment with monoamine oxidase inhibitors, and also within a minimum of 14 days following discontinuation of treatment with a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (hypertensive crises may result). pregnancy category c: there are no adequate and well controlled studies of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride in pregnant women. dexmethylphenidate did not cause major malformations in rats or rabbits; however, it did cause delayed skeletal ossification and decreased postweaning weight gain in rats. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. in studies conducted in rats and rabbits, dexmethylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 20 and 100 mg/kg/day, respectively, during the period of organogenesis. no evidence of teratogenic activity was found in either the rat or rabbit study; however, delayed fetal skeletal ossification was observed at the highest dose level in rats. when dexmethylphenidate was administered to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses of up to 20 mg/kg/day, postweaning body weight gain was decreased in male offspring at the highest dose, but no other effects on postnatal development were observed. at the highest doses tested, plasma levels (aucs) of dexmethylphenidate in pregnant rats and rabbits were approximately 5 and 1 times, respectively, those in adults dosed with 20 mg/day. racemic methylphenidate has been shown to have teratogenic effects in rabbits when given in doses of 200 mg/kg/day throughout organogenesis. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release has not been studied in labor and delivery. it is not known whether dexmethylphenidate is excreted in human milk. because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised if dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release is administered to a nursing woman. information from 4 published case reports on the use of racemic methylphenidate during breastfeeding suggest that at maternal doses of 35 to 80 mg/day, milk concentrations of methylphenidate range from undetectable to 15.4 ng/ml. based on these limited data, the calculated infant daily dose for an exclusively breastfed infant would be about 0.4 to 2.9 µg/kg/day or about 0.2 to 0.7% of the maternal weight adjusted dose. the safety and efficacy of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release in children under 6 years old have not been established. long-term effects of dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride in children have not been well established [see warnings and precautions (5.13) ]. in a study conducted in young rats, racemic methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 100 mg/kg/day for 9 weeks, starting early in the postnatal period (postnatal day 7) and continuing through sexual maturity (postnatal week 10). when these animals were tested as adults (postnatal weeks 13-14), decreased spontaneous locomotor activity was observed in males and females previously treated with 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 6 times the maximum recommended human dose [mrhd] of racemic methylphenidate on a mg/m2 basis) or greater, and a deficit in the acquisition of a specific learning task was seen in females exposed to the highest dose (12 times the racemic mrhd on a mg/m2 basis). the no effect level for juvenile neurobehavioral development in rats was 5 mg/kg/day (half the racemic mrhd on a mg/m2 basis). the clinical significance of the long-term behavioral effects observed in rats is unknown. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release has not been studied in the geriatric population. dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release, like other methylphenidate products, is classified as a schedule ii controlled substance by federal regulation. see the complete boxed warning for drug abuse and dependence information at the beginning of full prescribing information .
