    WARNINGS

    Included as part of PRECAUTIONS section.

    PRECAUTIONS

    Sequelae of symptomatic response

    Symptomatic response to pantoprazole therapy does
    does not exclude the presence of malignant neoplasms of the stomach.

    Hypersensitivity and severe skin reactions

    Anaphylaxis and other serious reactions such as erythema
    multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) have
    reported with the use of intravenous pantoprazole. It may require an emergency
    treatment .

    Injection site reactions

    Thrombophlebitis has been associated with administration
    intravenous pantoprazole.

    Potential for worsening zinc deficiency

    PROTONIX contains disodium edetate (salt form
    EDTA), a chelator of metal ions, including zinc. Therefore, zinc supplements
    should be considered in patients treated with PROTONIX I.V. for injection who
    susceptible to zinc deficiency. Caution should be exercised when using other EDTA-containing
    products are also administered intravenously.

    Clostridium Difficile associated diarrhea

    Published observational studies show that PPI therapy
    how PROTONIX may be associated with increased risk Clostridium
    difficile
    associated diarrhea, especially in hospitalized patients. This
    the diagnosis should be considered in diarrhea that does not improve.

    Patients should use the lowest dose and shortest duration
    PPI therapy appropriate to the condition being treated.

    Broken bones

    Several published observational studies suggest this
    proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy may be associated with an increased risk
    with fractures of the hip, wrist or spine associated with osteoporosis. Risk
    the fracture was enlarged in patients treated with a high dose, defined as multiple
    daily doses and long-term PPI therapy (a year or more). Patients should use
    lowest dose and shortest duration of PPI therapy consistent with
    the condition is being treated. Patients at risk of fractures associated with osteoporosis
    should be administered in accordance with established treatment guidelines.

    Hepatic effects

    Mild, transient increases in transaminases have been
    observed in clinical studies. The clinical significance of this discovery in
    the large population of subjects receiving intravenous pantoprazole is unknown. .

    Hypomagnesemia

    Hypomagnesemia, symptomatic and asymptomatic, was
    rarely reported in patients treated with PPIs for at least three months, and in
    most cases after a year of therapy. Serious adverse events include tetany
    arrhythmias and seizures. In most patients, treatment of hypomagnesaemia
    necessary replacement of magnesium and discontinuation of PPI

    For patients who are expected to be on long-term treatment or who
    take PPIs with drugs such as digoxin or drugs that can cause
    hypomagnesemia (eg. , diuretics), healthcare professionals may consider
    monitoring magnesium levels prior to initiating PPI treatment, and
    periodically.

    THC Urine Screen Interference

    Can produce THC false positive urinalysis
    (tetrahydrocannabinol)

    .

    Simultaneous use of protonix with methotrexate

    Literature suggests that concomitant use of PPIs with
    methotrexate (mainly at high doses;

    Preclinical toxicology
    Carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, impaired fertility

    In a 24-month Sprague-Dawley rat carcinogenicity study
    treated orally with doses of 0.5 to 200 mg/kg/day, about 0.1 to 40 times
    an effect on the body surface area of ​​a 50 kg human administered a dose of 40 mg/day.
    In the gastric fund, treatment is performed at a dose of 0.5 to 200 mg / kg / day
    enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell hyperplasia and benign and malignant
    neuroendocrine cell tumors in a dose-dependent manner. In the forest stomach
    treatment at a dose of 50 and 200 mg / kg / day (about 10 and 40 times the recommended person
    dose based on body surface area) caused benign squamous papillomas and
    malignant squamous cell carcinomas. Rare gastrointestinal tumors are associated
    with pantoprazole treatment included duodenal adenocarcinoma at age 50
    mg / kg / day and benign polyps and adenocarcinomas of the gastric fund in 200
    mg/kg/day. The liver is treated at a dose of 0.5 to 200 mg/kg/day
    dose escalation for hepatocellular adenomas and related doses
    carcinomas. In the thyroid gland, treatment at a dose of 200 mg / kg / day increased
    frequency of follicular cell adenomas and carcinomas in both men and women
    rats.

    In a 24-month Fischer rat carcinogenicity study 344
    treated orally with doses of 5 to 50 mg/kg/day, about 1 to 10
    multiply the recommended human dose based on body surface area. in the stomach
    Fundus, treated at a dose of 5 to 50 mg/kg/day, produces enterochromaffin-like (ECL)
    cell hyperplasia; and benign and malignant neuroendocrine cell tumors. Dose
    selection for this study may not have been sufficient for a comprehensive assessment
    carcinogenic potential of pantoprazole.

    In a 24-month carcinogenicity study in B6C3F1 mice,
    orally treated with doses of 5 to 150 mg/kg/day, 0. 5 to 15 times more
    recommended human dose based on body surface area. In the liver treatment at 150
    mg/kg/day caused an increase in the frequency of hepatocellular adenomas and
    carcinomas in female mice. Treatment of 5 to 150 mg/kg/day is also done
    hyperplasia of ECL cells of the stomach.

    26-week Carcinogenicity Study in Transgenic Mice
    was not positive.

    Pantoprazole was positive in in vitro people
    lymphocyte chromosomal aberration assays in one of two mouse micronuclei
    tests for clastogenic effects and in vitro Chinese hamster ovary
    direct cell mutation/HGPRT assay for mutagenic effects. Equivalent results were
    observed in an in vivo rat liver DNA covalent binding assay. Pantoprazole was
    negative in in vitro Ames mutation assay in vitro unscheduled DNA
    synthesis assay (UDS) with rat hepatocytes, in vitro AS52 / GPT mammal
    gene mutation assay in cell direction in vitro thymidine kinase mutation test
    with L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells and rat bone marrow cell in vivo
    analysis of chromosomal aberration.

    No effect on fertility or reproduction
    performance when taking pantoprazole at oral doses up to 500 mg/kg/day
    male rats (98 times the recommended human dose based on body surface area) and
    450 mg/kg/day in female rats (88 times the recommended human dose depending on the body
    surface area).

    Use in certain populations
    Pregnancy
    Teratogenic effects – Pregnancy category B

    Reproduction studies have been performed in rats in
    intravenous doses up to 20 mg/kg/day (4 times the recommended human dose
    on the body surface) and rabbits at intravenous doses up to 15 mg/kg/day (6
    times the recommended human dose depending on body surface area) and identified
    there is no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to pantoprazole. There
    however, there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women.
    Because animal reproduction studies don’t always predict humans
    In response, this medication should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.

    Nursing mothers

    Pantoprazole and its metabolites are excreted in milk
    rats. Excretion of pantoprazole in breast milk was found in a study a
    single mother after a single dose of 40 mg. Clinical relevance
    this find is unknown. Many drugs that are excreted in breast milk have
    potential for serious adverse reactions in infants. Based
    carcinogenic potential shown for pantoprazole in rodent carcinogenicity
    research, a decision must be made whether to terminate care or
    stop taking the drug, taking into account the benefits of the drug for
    Mother.

    Pediatric use

    Safety and efficacy of PROTONIX I.V. in pediatric
    patients were not created.

    Geriatric use

    No age difference in safety profile
    intravenous pantoprazole has been seen in international trials involving 86 elderly people
    (≥ 65 years) and 200 young (<65 years) patients with erosive esophagitis associated with GERD. The frequency of healing of esophagitis in 107 elderly patients (≥ 65 years) treated with oral pantoprazole in the US, clinical trials were similar to those found in patients under that age out of 65.
