Zolpidem Tartrate 10mg Tablets (Sandoz Limited)





1. Name Of The Medicinal Product



Zolpidem Tartrate 10mg Tablets


2. Qualitative And Quantitative Composition



Each tablet contains 10 mg of Zolpidem tartrate.



For excipients see 6.1.



3. Pharmaceutical Form



Film coated tablet.



White, oval, biconvex, film-coated tablets, embossed with “ZIM” on one side and “10” on the other.



4. Clinical Particulars



4.1 Therapeutic Indications



Zolpidem Tablets are used as a short-term treatment for patients who are suffering from incapacitating insomnia or where insomnia is causing severe distress.



4.2 Posology And Method Of Administration



The dose should be taken at night not less than one hour after food. Zolpidem acts rapidly and therefore should be taken immediately before retiring, or in bed.



Adults:



Daily dose of 10mg



Elderly or debilitated:



Daily dose of 5mg as these patients are likely to be more susceptible to the effects of zolpidem tablets.



Children:



Should not be used in children.



Hepatic impairment:



A dose of 5mg per day should be given as the clearance and metabolism of zolpidem is decreased in those with liver problems. Particular caution should be exercised in elderly patients with hepatic impairment. If an inadequate therapeutic effect has been observed and the drug is well tolerated in adults under the age of 65, the dose may be increased to 10mg.



The total recommended daily doses should not be exceeded.



Long term use is not recommended, as with all hypnotics, and the treatment schedule should therefore not last longer than 4 weeks. Treatment duration can vary from a few days to 2 weeks, with a maximum of 4 weeks to include gradual withdrawal where indicated.



Method of Administration



Oral



4.3 Contraindications



Zolpidem tablets are contraindicated in the following circumstances:



- Hypersensitivity to zolpidem or any of the excipients in the tablet



- Obstructive sleep apnoea



- Myasthenia gravis



- Severe hepatic insufficiency



- Acute pulmonary insufficiency



- Respiratory depression



- Use in children



- Use in patients with psychotic illness



4.4 Special Warnings And Precautions For Use



Before using a hypnotic such as zolpidem tablets the underlying condition should be assessed, identified and treated where possible. If treatment has failed to alleviate the patient's insomnia after 7 - 14 days this may be a sign that a primary psychiatric or physical disorder is present and the cause should therefore be investigated.



Use in Depression: If patients are showing depressive symptomology, zolpidem should be administered with caution. Due to possible suicidal ideation and the risk of intentional overdose by the patient, the quantity of zolpidem prescribed should be the smallest appropriate amount.



Use in patients with a history of drug or alcohol abuse: If patients have a history of drug, alcohol or substance abuse, great caution should be taken when prescribing zolpidem. Due to the high risk of habituation and psychological dependence, patients should be kept under close observation.



Use in Elderly: Caution is advised when prescribing for the elderly as they have increased sensitivity to zolpidem and are more likely to suffer from side effects.



When prescribing benzodiazepines or other hypnotic medications, the following information should be taken into account:



Tolerance: After continuous use for a few weeks there may be a loss of efficacy in the hypnotic effect of short acting drugs such as Zolpidem Tablets.



Dependence: There is a risk of physical and psychological dependence developing when benzodiazepines or benzodiazepine type drugs are used. The probability of dependence increases with the dose, the length of treatment and if the drug has a short duration of action. The risk is also increased in those people who have a history of substance abuse. If physical dependence has developed, withdrawal symptoms are likely if treatment is suddenly discontinued. These symptoms may include headache, depression, muscle pain, irritability, confusion, great anxiety and tension. Sometimes severe withdrawal effects are seen and these consist of derealisation, depersonalisation, hyperacusis, numbness and tingling of extremities, hypersensitivity to light, noise and physical contact, hallucinations and epileptic seizures.



Rebound Insomnia: On withdrawal of a benzodiazepine or benzodiazepine-like drug, the symptoms that originally prompted treatment may return in a heightened form. This recurrence, although transient, may also include other phenomena such as mood changes, anxiety and restlessness. It is important that the patient is informed about the possibility of this occurrence so their anxiety can be constrained if such symptoms arise. As abrupt cessation of the treatment is associated with withdrawal and rebound symptoms, if possible the dosage should be gradually reduced. It is thought that if a drug has a short duration of action these types of withdrawal symptoms can be seen between doses. This phenomenon is particularly observed in patients on high doses.



Amnesia: Patients should take the tablets at such a time as to ensure that they can sleep uninterrupted for 7-8 hours. This is because there is a risk of anterograde amnesia and this usually begins a few hours after the product has been ingested.



Psychiatric and 'Paradoxical' side-effects: There have been reports of behavioural side-effects that sometimes occur when patients, especially the elderly, take benzodiazepines or benzodiazepine type drugs. These adverse reactions include restlessness, agitation, irritability, aggressiveness, delusion, rages, nightmares, hallucinations, psychoses and inappropriate behaviour. If such side-effects occur, Zolpidem Tablets should be discontinued.



4.5 Interaction With Other Medicinal Products And Other Forms Of Interaction



Alcohol should not be taken concurrently as the sedative effect of zolpidem may be increased.



Caution Advised:



Zolpidem should be used with caution when the patient is taking CNS depressants, as the depressant effect of the drugs may be magnified. Caution should therefore be taken when treating with



- Antipsychotics (neuroleptics)



- Hypnotics



- Anxiolytics/sedatives



- Antidepressant agents



- Narcotic analgesics



- Antiepileptics drugs



- Anaesthetics



- Sedative antihistamines



Concomitant use with narcotic analgesics may increase euphoria and therefore may contribute to an increase in psychological dependence.



The action of benzodiazepines and benzodiazepine type agents may be enhanced by drugs which inhibit certain hepatic enzymes, especially the cytochrome P450 enzyme.



4.6 Pregnancy And Lactation



Safety in pregnancy has not been established although no teratogenic or embryotoxic effects have been reported in animals. Zolpidem should be avoided in pregnancy, particularly during the first trimester.



Women of child bearing age should be informed that they should contact their doctor if they intend to become or suspect that they are pregnant.



If Zolpidem is used for urgent medical reasons during the late phase of pregnancy or during labour, the neonate may be effected by hypothermia, hypotonia and moderate respiratory depression as a result of the pharmacological action of the drug.



Mothers who take benzodiazepines or benzodiazepine like drugs persistently during pregnancy may give birth to babies that have developed physical dependence and so may develop withdrawal symptoms in the postnatal period.



Use of Zolpidem is not recommended for lactating mothers as Zolpidem appears in small quantities in the breast milk.



4.7 Effects On Ability To Drive And Use Machines



Simulated car driving tests have shown that on the day after taking the medicine driving was not affected. However due to the possible risk of drowsiness in the morning after treatment, those who drive vehicles and operate machines should be warned of the possible danger.



As the sedative effect of zolpidem may be increased with the concurrent intake of alcohol, which could then affect the patient's ability to drive or use machinery, those who drive vehicles and operate machines should be warned of the possible danger.



4.8 Undesirable Effects



There is evidence of a dose-relationship for adverse effects associated with zolpidem use, particularly for certain CNS and gastrointestinal events. These adverse effects are seen more frequently in elderly patients.



The most frequently documented undesirable effects seen after taking Zolpidem are daytime drowsiness, dizziness, diarrhoea, headache, nausea, vomiting, weakness and vertigo.



More rare reactions that have been identified include memory disturbances (anterograde amnesia), nightmares, nocturnal restlessness, depressive syndrome, episodes of confusion, perceptual disturbances or diplopia, tremor, unsteady gait and falls. The likelihood of amnesia is not related to dose or age.



4.9 Overdose



When zolpidem is the sole drug taken, it has been found that consciousness is impaired and ranges from somnolence to light coma. Patients who have taken up to 40 times the daily dose, 400mg, have fully recovered.



Symptomatic and supportive measures should be taken, and where appropriate gastric lavage should be used and intravenous fluids should be given. If 100mg or more of zolpidem has been ingested, gastric lavage should be performed and the patient observed for at least 12 hours. Activated charcoal should be used to reduce absorption if emptying of the stomach is not appropriate. Sedating drugs should be withheld even if excitation occurs. Use of flumazenil may be considered where serious symptoms are observed.



As with all overdoses consideration needs to be given to the fact more than one drug may have been taken.



5. Pharmacological Properties



5.1 Pharmacodynamic Properties



Zolpidem is an imidazopyridine, and as such it is a GABA-A receptor agonist that selectively binds the omega-1 receptor subtype (also known as the benzodiazepine-1 subtype or BZ-1) which is the alpha unit of the GABA-A receptor complex. Benzodiazepines bind to all 3 omega receptor subtypes, but zolpidem selectively binds to the omega-1, the BZ1 receptor. It is thought that this selectivity is the reason that zolpidem is potent as a sedative as opposed to a muscle relaxant, anti-convulsant or minor anxiolytic. The sedative effect is gained by the modulation of the chloride anion channel via this receptor.



The effects of zolpidem are reversed by flumazenil, which is a benzodiazepine antagonist.



In animals: The myorelaxant and anticonvulsant properties that are usually seen in benzodiazepines are not present at hypnotic doses of zolpidem. It is believed that this is due to the selectivity for the omega-1 sites in the brain.



In humans: Deep sleep (stage 3 and 4 of slow wave sleep) is unchanged after treatment with Zolpidem. Again it is thought to be as a result of the selectivity to the omega 1 binding site.



5.2 Pharmacokinetic Properties



Zolpidem has both a rapid absorption and onset of hypnotic action.



Bioavailability is 70% following oral administration and demonstrates linear kinetics in the therapeutic dose range. C max is reached at between 0.5 and 3 hours. A night-time food interaction study showed a 15% reduction in AUC and a 25% reduction in Cmax.



It is widely distributed throughout the body. The volume of distribution in adults is 0.54±0.02 L/kg and decreases to 0.34±0.05 L/kg in the elderly.



Protein binding amounts to 92.5%±0.1%. After repeated doses the drug does not accumulate and protein binding is unchanged.



Zolpidem undergoes first pass metabolism in the liver. The metabolites are not pharmacologically active.



The elimination half-life is short, with a mean of 2.4 hours (0.7-0.3.5) and a duration of action up to 6 hours. Zolpidem is almost entirely eliminated by the liver with 79-96% of the dose appearing as metabolites in the urine (56%) and faeces (37%). Less than 1% is excreted unchanged in the urine.



Zolpidem is not removed by haemodialysis.



In the elderly and patients with hepatic with hepatic impairment, the plasma concentrations are increased, and the clearance and volume of distribution are reduced. In patients with renal problems there may be a moderate reduction in clearance, even after dialysis, although there is no need for dose adjustment. Other pharmacokinetic parameters are unaffected.



5.3 Preclinical Safety Data



Preclinical data revealed no special hazard to humans based on conventional studies of safety pharmacology, repeated dose toxicity, gentotoxicity, carcinogenic potential, toxicity to reproduction.

What is Cyotic (chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine (otic))?

Chloroxylenol is an antibiotic that fights bacteria.


Pramoxine is a topical anesthetic. It works by interfering with pain signals sent from the nerves to the brain.


Hydrocortisone is a steroid. It reduces the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and swelling.


The combination of chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic (for the ear) are used to treat pain, and swelling caused by ear infections.


Chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about Cyotic (chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine (otic))?


Do not use this medication if you have a ruptured (torn) ear drum, or the medication could leak into the inner ear. A ruptured ear drum usually causes moderate to severe ear pain, with or without a decrease in hearing. Call your doctor if you think you have a ruptured ear drum. Your doctor will use a special scope to see any tear in your ear drum.

Before using chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine, tell your doctor if you are allergic to any drugs, or if you have any type of illness or infection (other than an ear infection).


Chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic is for use only in your ear. Avoid getting this medication in your mouth or eyes. If it does get into any of these areas, rinse with water. Ear infections may sometimes cause dizziness or a loss of balance. Be careful if you drive, operate machinery, or do anything else hazardous if you feel dizzy or off balance. Stop using this medication and call your doctor at once if you have ear drainage or discharge, severe burning or itching in your ear, or worsening pain, irritation, or rash.

Less serious side effects are more likely, and you may have none at all.

FDA pregnancy category C. This medication may be harmful to an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

How should I use my Cyotic (chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine (otic))?


Use this medication exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not use the medication in larger amounts, or use it for longer than recommended by your doctor.


Do not use the medication in your eyes or take it by mouth. Chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic is for use in the ears only.

For best results, remove any ear wax or other debris before using the ear drops. Ask your doctor about safe methods of ear wax removal.


To use the ear drops, first remove the cap from the dropper bottle. Lie down or tilt your head with your ear facing upward. Pull back on your ear gently to open up the ear canal. Hold the dropper upside down over your ear canal and place enough drops of the medicine in your ear to fill the ear canal.


Do not place the dropper tip into your ear, or allow the tip to touch any surface. It may become contaminated.

After using the ear drops, keep the ear tilted upward for about 5 minutes. You may also be able to soak a small cotton wick with the medication and leave it in place. Ask your doctor of pharmacist for instructions on using a cotton wick.


Wipe the dropper tip with a clean tissue. Do not wash the tip with water or soap.


Use this medication for the full prescribed length of time. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cleared. Talk with your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after using this medication.


Store the ear drops at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep the bottle properly capped.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Use the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, wait until then to use the medicine and skip the missed dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up the missed dose.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine.

An overdose of chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine applied into the ear is not likely to cause life-threatening symptoms.


What should I avoid while using this medication?


Do not use other ear drops during treatment with chloroxylenol, hydrocortisone, and pramoxine otic without first talking to your doctor.

VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 supply important prenatal vitamins, minerals and nutrients to supplement the nutritional needs of women, before, during and after pregnancy. Deficiencies of these nutrients are common during pregnancy and lactation and should be prescribed by a physician prior to conception.


VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 caplets are manufactured in a drug-certified cGMP (current good manufacturing practices) facility and meets or exceeds USP standards for potency, purity and dissolution. VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 softgel capsules comply with the most stringent worldwide standards for fish oil and are manufactured in a NSF Certified cGMP Facility.

INDICATIONS AND USAGE:


VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 are indicated to provide vitamin/mineral and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation to women throughout pregnancy, during the postnatal period for both lactating and non-lactating mothers and throughout the child bearing years. VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 are also useful in improving the nutritional status prior to conception.



DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:


Before, during and after pregnancy, one caplet and one softgel capsule taken by mouth daily, or as prescribed by a physician. The caplet and softgel capsule may be taken together or at different times of the day. Caution should be exercised to ensure that the prescribed dose of DHA does not exceed 1 gram (1,000 mg) per day.



CONTRAINDICATIONS:


VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 are contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients, including fish oil and soy. Iron is contraindicated in patients with hemosiderosis, hemochromatosis, or hemolytic anemias. These products are contraindicated for persons with pernicious anemia, as folic acid may obscure its signs and symptoms.



WARNING:


Folic acid alone is improper therapy in the treatment of pernicious anemia in that hematological remission can occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive.


Ingestion of omega-3 fatty acids (including alpha-linolenic acid [ALA], eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA] and docosahexaenoic acid [DHA] from fish oils) of more than 3 grams per day may present antithrombotic effects, including increased bleeding time. Omega-3 fatty acids including DHA and EPA should be avoided in patients with inherited or acquired bleeding diatheses. Patients taking anticoagulant drug products should consult with their physician prior to ingesting omega-3 fatty acids.



PRECAUTIONS:


Folic acid in dosages above 400 mcg daily may obscure megaloblastic (pernicious) anemia in that hematological remission can occur while neurological manifestations (Addisonian anemia) remain progressive.



ADVERSE REACTIONS:


Iron: Gastrointestinal disturbances (anorexia, nausea, diarrhea, constipation) can occur but are usually mild and can subside with continuation of therapy. Although the absorption of iron is best when taken between meals, VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 when taken after meals, may control occasional G.I. disturbances. VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 are best absorbed when taken at bedtime.

Folic Acid: Allergic sensitizations have been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid.


Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report suspected side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.



USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS:


VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 are not advocated for pediatric or geriatric use.



OVERDOSE:


Iron: Signs and Symptoms: Iron is toxic. Acute overdosage of iron may cause nausea and vomiting. In severe cases, iron overdose can cause cardiovascular collapse and death. Other symptoms include pallor and cyanosis, melena, shock, drowsiness and coma. The estimated overdose of orally ingested iron is 300mg/kg body weight. When overdoses are ingested by children, severe reactions, including fatalities have resulted. VitaPhil + DHA and VitaPhil + DHA 90 should be stored beyond the reach of children to prevent against accidental iron poisoning. Keep this and all other drugs out of reach of children. Treatment: For specific therapy, exchange transfusion and chelating agents should be used. For general management, perform gastric lavage with sodium bicarbonate solution or milk. Administer intravenous fluids and electrolytes and use oxygen.
