Eluxadoline

Contraindications

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS VIBERZI is contraindicated in patients: Without a gallbladder. These patients are at increased risk of developing serious adverse reactions of pancreatitis and/or sphincter of Oddi spasm [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.2 )] With known or suspected biliary duct obstruction; or sphincter of Oddi disease or dysfunction. These patients are at increased risk for sphincter of Oddi spasm [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )]. With alcoholism, alcohol abuse or alcohol addiction, or in patients who drink more than 3 alcoholic beverages per day. These patients are at increased risk for acute pancreatitis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )]. With a history of pancreatitis; or structural diseases of the pancreas, including known or suspected pancreatic duct obstruction. These patients are at increased risk for acute pancreatitis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . With a known hypersensitivity reaction to VIBERZI [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )]. With severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C). These patients are at risk for significantly increased plasma concentrations of eluxadoline [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 )] With a history of chronic or severe constipation or sequelae from constipation, or known or suspected mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction. These patients may be at risk for severe complications of bowel obstruction [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . patients without a gallbladder ( 4 ) known or suspected biliary duct obstruction, or sphincter of Oddi disease or dysfunction ( 4 ) alcoholism, alcohol abuse, alcohol addiction, or drink more than 3 alcoholic beverages/day ( 4 ) a history of pancreatitis; structural diseases of the pancreas, including known or suspected pancreatic duct obstruction ( 4 ) patients with a known hypersensitivity reaction to VIBERZI ( 4 , 5.3 ) severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C) ( 4 , 8.6 ) a history of chronic or severe constipation or sequelae from constipation,

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no studies with VIBERZI in pregnant women that inform any drug-associated risks. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. However, the background risk in the U.S. general population of major birth defects is 2 to 4% and of miscarriage is 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies. In animal reproduction studies, oral and subcutaneous administration of eluxadoline to rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses approximately 51 and 115 times the human exposure after a single oral dose of 100 mg, respectively, demonstrated no teratogenic effects. In a pre- and postnatal development study in rats, no adverse effects were observed in offspring with oral administration of eluxadoline at doses approximately 10 times the human exposure ( see Data ) . Data Animal Data Eluxadoline administered as combined oral (1000 mg/kg/day) and subcutaneous (5 mg/kg/day) doses during the period of organogenesis to rats and rabbits (exposures about 51 and 115 times, respectively, the human AUC of 24 ng.h/mL after a single oral dose of 100 mg) did not cause any adverse effects on embryofetal development. A pre- and postnatal development study in rats showed no evidence of any adverse effect on pre- and postnatal development at oral doses of eluxadoline up to 1000 mg/kg/day (with exposures about 10 times the human AUC of 24 ng.h/mL after a single oral dose of 100 mg). In the same study, eluxadoline was detected in the milk of lactating rats administered oral doses of 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day (with exposures about 1.8, 3 and 10 times, respectively, the human AUC of 24 ng.h/mL after a single oral dose of 100 mg). Milk samples were collected from six lactating females per group on lactation day 12. Mean concentrations of eluxadoline in the milk of lactating rats on lactation day 12 were 2.78, 5.49 and 44.02 ng/mL at 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day, respectively.
