taro pharmaceuticals u.s.a., inc. - warfarin sodium (unii: 6153cwm0cl) (warfarin - unii:5q7zvv76ei) - warfarin sodium 1 mg - warfarin sodium tablets, usp are indicated for: - prophylaxis and treatment of venous thrombosis and its extension, pulmonary embolism (pe). - prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic complications associated with atrial fibrillation (af) and/or cardiac valve replacement. - reduction in the risk of death, recurrent myocardial infarction (mi), and thromboembolic events such as stroke or systemic embolization after myocardial infarction. limitations of use warfarin sodium has no direct effect on an established thrombus, nor does it reverse ischemic tissue damage. once a thrombus has occurred, however, the goals of anticoagulant treatment are to prevent further extension of the formed clot and to prevent secondary thromboembolic complications that may result in serious and possibly fatal sequelae. warfarin sodium tablets, usp are contraindicated in: - pregnancy warfarin sodium tablets, usp are contraindicated in women who are pregnant except in pregnant women with mechanical heart valves, who are at high risk of thromboembolism [see warnings and precautions (5.7) and use in specific populations (8.1) ]. warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. warfarin sodium exposure during pregnancy causes a recognized pattern of major congenital malformations (warfarin embryopathy and fetotoxicity), fatal fetal hemorrhage, and an increased risk of spontaneous abortion and fetal mortality. if warfarin sodium is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus [see use in specific populations (8.1) ]. warfarin sodium tablets, usp are contraindicated in patients with: - hemorrhagic tendencies or blood dyscrasias - recent or contemplated surgery of the central nervous system or eye, or traumatic surgery resulting in large open surfaces [see warnings and precautions (5.8) ] - bleeding tendencies associated with: active ulceration or overt bleeding of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or respiratory tract central nervous system hemorrhage cerebral aneurysms, dissecting aorta pericarditis and pericardial effusions bacterial endocarditis - active ulceration or overt bleeding of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or respiratory tract - central nervous system hemorrhage - cerebral aneurysms, dissecting aorta - pericarditis and pericardial effusions - bacterial endocarditis - threatened abortion, eclampsia, and preeclampsia - unsupervised patients with conditions associated with potential high level of non-compliance - spinal puncture and other diagnostic or therapeutic procedures with potential for uncontrollable bleeding - hypersensitivity to warfarin or to any other components of this product (e.g., anaphylaxis) [see adverse reactions (6) ] - major regional or lumbar block anesthesia - malignant hypertension risk summary warfarin sodium tablets, usp are contraindicated in women who are pregnant except in pregnant women with mechanical heart valves, who are at high risk of thromboembolism, and for whom the benefits of warfarin sodium may outweigh the risks [see warnings and precautions (5.7) ]. warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm. exposure to warfarin during the first trimester of pregnancy caused a pattern of congenital malformations in about 5% of exposed offspring. because these data were not collected in adequate and well-controlled studies, this incidence of major birth defects is not an adequate basis for comparison to the estimated incidences in the control group or the u.s. general population and may not reflect the incidences observed in practice. consider the benefits and risks of warfarin sodium and possible risks to the fetus when prescribing warfarin sodium to a pregnant woman. adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. 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 fetal/neonatal adverse reactions in humans, warfarin crosses the placenta, and concentrations in fetal plasma approach the maternal values. exposure to warfarin during the first trimester of pregnancy caused a pattern of congenital malformations in about 5% of exposed offspring. warfarin embryopathy is characterized by nasal hypoplasia with or without stippled epiphyses (chondrodysplasia punctata) and growth retardation (including low birth weight). central nervous system and eye abnormalities have also been reported, including dorsal midline dysplasia characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, dandy-walker malformation, midline cerebellar atrophy, and ventral midline dysplasia characterized by optic atrophy. mental retardation, blindness, schizencephaly, microcephaly, hydrocephalus, and other adverse pregnancy outcomes have been reported following warfarin exposure during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy [see contraindications (4) ]. risk summary warfarin was not present in human milk from mothers treated with warfarin from a limited published study. because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including bleeding in a breastfed infant, consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother's clinical need for warfarin sodium and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from warfarin sodium or from the underlying maternal condition before prescribing warfarin sodium to a lactating woman. clinical considerations monitor breastfeeding infants for bruising or bleeding. data human data based on published data in 15 nursing mothers, warfarin was not detected in human milk. among the 15 full-term newborns, 6 nursing infants had documented prothrombin times within the expected range. prothrombin times were not obtained for the other 9 nursing infants. effects in premature infants have not been evaluated. pregnancy testing warfarin sodium can cause fetal harm [see use in specific populations (8.1) ]. verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating warfarin sodium therapy. contraception females advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 1 month after the final dose of warfarin sodium. adequate and well-controlled studies with warfarin sodium have not been conducted in any pediatric population, and the optimum dosing, safety, and efficacy in pediatric patients is unknown. pediatric use of warfarin sodium is based on adult data and recommendations, and available limited pediatric data from observational studies and patient registries. pediatric patients administered warfarin sodium should avoid any activity or sport that may result in traumatic injury. the developing hemostatic system in infants and children results in a changing physiology of thrombosis and response to anticoagulants. dosing of warfarin in the pediatric population varies by patient age, with infants generally having the highest, and adolescents having the lowest milligram per kilogram dose requirements to maintain target inrs. because of changing warfarin requirements due to age, concomitant medications, diet, and existing medical condition, target inr ranges may be difficult to achieve and maintain in pediatric patients, and more frequent inr determinations are recommended. bleeding rates varied by patient population and clinical care center in pediatric observational studies and patient registries. infants and children receiving vitamin k-supplemented nutrition, including infant formulas, may be resistant to warfarin therapy, while human milk-fed infants may be sensitive to warfarin therapy. of the total number of patients receiving warfarin sodium in controlled clinical trials for which data were available for analysis, 1885 patients (24.4%) were 65 years and older, while 185 patients (2.4%) were 75 years and older. no overall differences in effectiveness or safety were observed between these patients and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. patients 60 years or older appear to exhibit greater than expected inr response to the anticoagulant effects of warfarin [see clinical pharmacology (12.3) ]. warfarin sodium is contraindicated in any unsupervised patient with senility. conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding with administration of warfarin sodium to elderly patients in any situation or with any physical condition where added risk of hemorrhage is present. consider lower initiation and maintenance doses of warfarin sodium in elderly patients [see dosage and administration (2.2, 2.3) ]. renal clearance is considered to be a minor determinant of anticoagulant response to warfarin. no dosage adjustment is necessary for patients with renal impairment. instruct patients with renal impairment taking warfarin to monitor their inr more frequently [see warnings and precautions (5.4) ]. hepatic impairment can potentiate the response to warfarin through impaired synthesis of clotting factors and decreased metabolism of warfarin. conduct more frequent monitoring for bleeding when using warfarin sodium in these patients.
