WARNINGS: Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML)
JC virus infection resulting in PML and death has been reported in Rituxan-treated patients with hematologic malignancies or with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an indication for which Rituxan has not been approved. The majority of patients with hematologic malignancies diagnosed with PML have received Rituxan in combination with chemotherapy or as past of a hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Patients with SLE had a history of prior immunosuppressive therapy and were diagnosed with PML within 12 months of their last infusion of Rituxan.
Physicians treating patients with Rituxan should consider PML in any patient presenting with new onset neurologic manifestations. Consultation with a neurologist, brain MRI, and lumbar puncture should be considered as clinically indicated. In patients who develop PML, Rituxan should be discontinued and reductions or discontinuation of any concomitant chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy should be considered. |

Extraneal (icodextrin) Peritoneal Dialysis Solution
Prescribing Information
Patient Package Insert |
WARNINGS
PRECAUTIONS
- Information for Patients
- .....patients should be instructed to use only glucose-specific glucose monitors and test strips.
- Drug/Laboratory Interactions
PATIENT PACKAGE INSERT
- If you monitor your blood glucose, you must use a glucose specific monitor and test strips. If your glucose monitor or test strips use a glucose dehydrogenase pyrroloquinolinequinone (GDH PQQ) or glucose-dye-oxidoreductase method, using Extraneal may cause a falsely high glucose reading or may mask a very low actual glucose reading.
|
WARNINGS
.....Blood glucose measurement in patients receiving Extraneal must be done with a glucose-specific method (monitor and test strips) to avoid interference by maltose, released from Extraneal. Glucose dehydrogenase pyrroloquinolinequinone (GDH PQQ) or glucose-dye-oxidoreductase based methods must not be used. If GDH-PQQ or glucose-dye-oxidoreductase based methods are used, using Extraneal may cause a falsely high glucose reading, which could result in the administration of more insulin than needed. This can cause hypoglycemia, which can result in loss of consciousness, coma, neurological damage and death. Additionally, falsely elevated blood glucose measurements due to maltose interference may mask true hypoglycemia and allow it to go untreated with similar consequences.
The manufacturer(s) of the monitor and test strips should be contacted to determine if icodextrin or maltose causes interference or falsely elevated glucose results..... |

By Week 36, 12 out of 160 (7.5%) subjects treated with pravastatin met the prespecified safety ALT endpoint compared to 20 out of 160 (12.5%) subjects receiving placebo.....
