par pharmaceutical, inc. - ketamine hydrochloride (unii: o18yuo0i83) (ketamine - unii:690g0d6v8h) - ketamine 10 mg in 1 ml -  ketalar (ketamine hydrochloride) injection is indicated: - as the sole anesthetic agent for diagnostic and surgical procedures that do not require skeletal muscle relaxation. - for the induction of anesthesia prior to the administration of other general anesthetic agents. - as a supplement to other anesthetic agents. - ketalar is contraindicated in patients for whom a significant elevation of blood pressure would constitute a serious hazard [see warnings and precautions(5.1)] . - ketalar is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketamine or to any excipient [see adverse reactions (6)] . there are no adequate and well-controlled studies of ketalar in pregnant women. in animal reproduction studies in rats developmental delays (hypoplasia of skeletal tissues) were noted at 0.3 times the human intramuscular dose of 10 mg/kg. in rabbits, developmental delays and increased fetal resorptions were noted at 0.6 times the human dose. published studies in pregnant primates demonstrate that the administration of anesthetic and sedation drugs that block nmda receptors and/or potentiate gaba activity during the period of peak brain development increases neuronal apoptosis in the developing brain of the offspring when used for longer than 3 hours. there are no data on pregnancy exposures in primates corresponding to periods prior to the third trimester in humans. 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 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. ketalar use in pregnancy, including obstetrics (either vaginal or abdominal delivery), is not recommended because safe use has not been established [see warnings and precautions (5.5), use in specific populations (8.4) and nonclinical toxicology (13.2)] . animal data pregnant rats were treated intramuscularly with 20 mg/kg ketamine (0.3 times the human dose of 10 mg/kg im based on body surface area) on either gestation days 6 to 10 or gestation days 11 to 15. ketamine treatment produced an increased incidence of hypoplastic skull, phalanges, and sternebrae in the pups. pregnant rabbits were treated intramuscularly with 20 mg/kg ketamine (0.6 times the human dose of 10 mg/kg im based on body surface area) on either gestation days 6 to 10 or gestation days 11 to 15. an increase in resorptions and skeletal hypoplasia of the fetuses were noted. additional pregnant rabbits were treated intramuscularly with a single dose 60 mg/kg (1.9 times the human dose of 10 mg/kg im based on body surface area) on gestation day 6 only. skeletal hypoplasia was reported in the fetuses. in a study where pregnant rats were treated intramuscularly with 20 mg/kg ketamine (0.3 times the human dose of 10 mg/kg im based on body surface area) from gestation day 18 to 21. there was a slight increase in incidence of delayed parturition by one day in treated dams of this group. no adverse effects on the litters or pups were noted; however, learning and memory assessments were not completed. three pregnant beagle dogs were treated intramuscularly with 25 mg/kg ketamine (1.3 times the human dose of 10 mg/kg im based on body surface area) twice weekly for the three weeks of the first, second, and third trimesters of pregnancy, respectively, without the development of adverse effects in the pups. in a published study in primates, administration of an anesthetic dose of ketamine for 24 hours on gestation day 122 increased neuronal apoptosis in the developing brain of the fetus. in other published studies, administration of either isoflurane or propofol for 5 hours on gestation day 120 resulted in increased neuronal and oligodendrocyte apoptosis in the developing brain of the offspring. with respect to brain development, this time period corresponds to the third trimester of gestation in the human. the clinical significance of these findings is not clear; however, studies in juvenile animals suggest neuroapoptosis correlates with long-term cognitive deficits [see warnings and precautions (5.5), use in specific populations (8.4), and nonclinical toxicology (13.2)] . safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 16 have not been established. published juvenile animal studies demonstrate that the administration of anesthetic and sedation drugs, such as ketalar, that either block nmda receptors or potentiate the activity of gaba during the period of rapid brain growth or synaptogenesis, results in widespread neuronal and oligodendrocyte cell loss in the developing brain and alterations in synaptic morphology and neurogenesis. based on comparisons across species, the window of vulnerability to these changes is believed to correlate with exposures in the third trimester of gestation through the first several months of life, but may extend out to approximately 3 years of age in humans. in primates, exposure to 3 hours of ketamine that produced a light surgical plane of anesthesia did not increase neuronal cell loss, however, treatment regimens of 5 hours or longer of isoflurane increased neuronal cell loss. data from isoflurane-treated rodents and ketamine-treated primates suggest that the neuronal and oligodendrocyte cell losses are associated with prolonged cognitive deficits in learning and memory. the clinical significance of these nonclinical findings is not known, and healthcare providers should balance the benefits of appropriate anesthesia in neonates and young children who require procedures with the potential risks suggested by the nonclinical data [see warnings and precautions (5.5), use in specific populations (8.1), and nonclinical toxicology (13.2)] . clinical studies of ketamine hydrochloride did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. in general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy. ketalar contains ketamine, a schedule iii controlled substance under the controlled substance act. individuals with a history of drug abuse or dependence may be at greater risk for abuse and misuse of ketalar. abuse is the intentional, non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, for its 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. in a context of drug abuse, ketalar may produce a variety of symptoms including anxiety, dysphoria, disorientation, insomnia, flashback, hallucinations, and feelings of floating, detachment and being “spaced out”. recurrent high-dose ketamine misuse or abuse may be associated with memory and/or attention impairment. physical dependence has been reported with prolonged use of ketamine. 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 significant dosage reduction of a drug. withdrawal symptoms have been reported after the discontinuation of frequently used (more than weekly), large doses of ketamine for long periods of time. reported symptoms of withdrawal associated with daily intake of large doses of ketamine include craving, fatigue, poor appetite, and anxiety. tolerance has been reported with prolonged use of ketamine. 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).

tersera therapeutics llc - ziconotide acetate (unii: t2i226k69m) (ziconotide - unii:7i64c51o16) - prialt (ziconotide) solution, intrathecal infusion is indicated for the management of severe chronic pain in adult patients for whom intrathecal therapy is warranted, and who are intolerant of or refractory to other treatment, such as systemic analgesics, adjunctive therapies, or intrathecal morphine. - prialt is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to ziconotide or any of its formulation components. - prialt is contraindicated in patients with any other concomitant treatment or medical condition that would render intrathecal administration hazardous. contraindications to the use of intrathecal analgesia include the presence of infection at the microinfusion injection site, uncontrolled bleeding diathesis, and spinal canal obstruction that impairs circulation of csf. - prialt is contraindicated in patients with a pre-existing history of psychosis. risk summary available data from postmarketing reports are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. in an animal reproduction study, ziconotide did not cause embryo-fetal toxicity when administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis by continuous intravenous infusion at 400- and 940-times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 19.2 mcg/day. in a pre- and post-natal development study, ziconotide did not affect pup development or reproductive performance when administered to rats by continuous intravenous infusion at 3800-times the mrhd (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. data animal data ziconotide caused embryo-fetal mortality in rats when given as a continuous intravenous infusion during the major period of organogenesis as evidenced by significant increases in post-implantation loss because of an absence or a reduced number of live fetuses. estimated exposure for embryo-fetal mortality in the rat was approximately 700-fold above the expected exposure resulting from the maximum recommended human daily intrathecal dose of 0.8 mcg/hr (19.2 mcg/day). ziconotide did not result in malformations when administered to pregnant rats by continuous intravenous infusion at doses up to 30 mg/kg/day or to pregnant rabbits up to 5 mg/kg/day during the major period of organ development. estimated exposures in the female rat and rabbit were approximately 26,000-fold and 940-fold higher than the expected exposure resulting from the maximum recommended human daily dose of 0.8 mcg/hr (19.2 mcg/day) based on plasma exposure. maternal toxicity in the rat and rabbit, as evidenced by decreased body weight gain and food consumption, was present at all dose levels. maternal toxicity in the rat led to reduced fetal weights and transient, delayed ossification of the pubic bones at doses ≥ 15 mg/kg/day, which is approximately 8900-fold higher than the expected exposure resulting from the maximum recommended human daily intrathecal dose of 0.8 mcg/hr (19.2 mcg/day) based on plasma exposure. the no observable adverse effect level (noael) for embryo-fetal development in rats was 0.5 mg/kg/day and in rabbits was 5 mg/kg/day. estimated noael exposures in the rat and rabbit were approximately 400-fold and 940-fold higher than the expected exposure resulting from the maximum recommended human daily intrathecal dose of 0.8 mcg/hr (19.2 mcg/day) based on plasma exposure. in a pre- and post-natal study in rats, ziconotide given as a continuous intravenous infusion did not affect pup development or reproductive performance up to a dose of 10 mg/kg/day, which is approximately 3800-fold higher than the expected exposure resulting from the maximum recommended human daily intrathecal dose of 0.8 mcg/hr (19.2 mcg/day) based on plasma exposure. maternal toxicity, as evidenced by clinical observations, and decreases in body weight gain and food consumption were observed at all doses. risk summary there are no data on the presence of ziconotide in either human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. infants exposed to prialt through breast milk should be monitored for sedation which may result in respiratory depression and/or feeding problems. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be weighed against the mother´s clinical need for prialt and any potential adverse effect on the breastfed infant from prialt or from the underlying maternal condition. safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. of the total number of subjects in clinical studies of prialt, 22% were 65 and over, while 7% were 75 and over. in all trials, there was a higher incidence of confusion in older patients (42% for ≥ 65 year old versus 29% for < 65 year old subgroups). other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between elderly and younger patients. in general, the dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
