Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS BRYNOVIN is contraindicated in patients with a history of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to sitagliptin or any of the excipients in BRYNOVIN. Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis and angioedema have been reported [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 ) and Adverse Reactions ( 6.2 )].

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary The limited available data with sitagliptin in pregnant women are not sufficient to inform a drug- associated risk for major birth defects and miscarriage. There are risks to the mother and fetus associated with poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy [see Clinical Considerations] . No adverse developmental effects were observed when sitagliptin was administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at oral doses up to 30-times and 20-times, respectively, the 100 mg clinical dose, based on AUC [see Data]. The estimated background risk of major birth defects is 6-10% in women with pre-gestational diabetes with a hemoglobin A1C >7% and has been reported to be as high as 20-25% in women with a hemoglobin A1C >10%. 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 Disease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryo/Fetal Risk Poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy increases the maternal risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, pre- eclampsia, spontaneous abortions, preterm delivery, and delivery complications. Poorly controlled diabetes increases the fetal risk for major birth defects, still birth, and macrosomia related morbidity. Data Animal Data In embryo-fetal development trials, sitagliptin administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis (gestation day 6 to 20) did not adversely affect developmental outcomes at oral doses up to 250 mg/kg (30-times the 100 mg clinical dose) and 125 mg/kg (20-times the 100 mg clinical dose), respectively, based on AUC. Higher doses in rats associated with maternal toxicity increased the incidence of rib malformations in offspring at 1,000 mg/kg, or approximately 100-times the clinical dose, based on AUC. Placental transfer of sitagliptin was observed in pregnant rats and rabbits. Sitagliptin administered to female rats from gestation day 6 to lactat
