Indications & Usage

DYANAVEL XR is indicated for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older [see Clinical Studies (14) ]. Limitations of Use The use of DYANAVEL XR is not recommended in pediatric patients younger than 6 years of age because they had higher plasma exposure and a higher incidence of adverse reactions (e.g., weight loss) than patients 6 years and older at the same dosage [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) , Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ]. DYANAVEL XR is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant indicated for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older ( 1 ) Limitations of Use The use of DYANAVEL XR is not recommended in pediatric patients younger than 6 years of age because they had higher plasma exposure and a higher incidence of adverse reactions (e.g., weight loss) than patients 6 years and older at the same dosage ( 5.5 , 8.4 ).

Dosage & Administration

Recommended starting dosage is 2.5 mg or 5 mg once daily in the morning ( 2.2 ) Dosage may be increased in increments of 2.5 mg to 10 mg per day every 4 to 7 days up to a maximum daily dose of 20 mg ( 2.2 ) May be taken with or without food ( 2.3 ) Extended-release oral suspension: Shake bottle before administering ( 2.3 ) Extended-release tablets: May be chewed or swallowed whole ( 2.3 ) DYANAVEL XR oral suspension can be substituted with DYANAVEL XR tablets on a milligram per milligram basis ( 2.4 ) Do not substitute for other amphetamine products on a milligram-per-milligram basis, because of different amphetamine salt compositions and differing pharmacokinetic profiles ( 2.4 ) 2.1 Pretreatment Screening Prior to treating patients with DYANAVEL XR, assess: for the presence of cardiac disease (i.e., perform a careful history, family history of sudden death or ventricular arrhythmia, and physical exam) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . the family history and clinically evaluate patients for motor or verbal tics or Tourette’s syndrome before initiating DYANAVEL XR [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ]. 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended starting dosage is 2.5 mg or 5 mg once daily in the morning. The dosage may be increased in increments of 2.5 mg to 10 mg per day every 4 to 7 days based on clinical response. The maximum recommended dosage is 20 mg once daily. 2.3 Administration Information Administer DYANAVEL XR orally once daily in the morning with or without food. DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Oral Suspension Instruct patients to read the “Instructions for Use” for complete administration instructions. Ensure that the bottle adapter is firmly inserted into the bottle and do not remove once inserted. Shake the bottle of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension well before every administration. Use with the oral dosing dispenser provided by the pharmacist. DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Tablets May be chewed or swallowed whole [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. The 5 mg extended-release tablet is functionally scored and may be divided into equal halves (2.5 mg) at the score line. 2.4 Switching from Other Amphetamine Products DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension can be substituted with DYANAVEL XR extended-release tablets on a milligram-per-milligram basis [ see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . If switching from other amphetamine products, discontinue that treatment, and titrate with DYANAVEL XR using the above titration schedule. Do not substitute for other amphetamine products on a milligram-per-milligram basis, because of different amphetamine salt compositions and differing pharmacokinetic profiles [ see Description (11) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . 2.5 Dosage Modifications due to Drug Interactions Agents that alter urinary pH can impact urinary excretion and alter blood levels of amphetamine. Acidifying agents (e.g., ascorbic acid) decrease blood levels, while alkalinizing agents (e.g., sodium bicarbonate) increase blood levels. Adjust DYANAVEL XR dosage accordingly [ see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] .

Warnings & Precautions
Risks to Patients with Serious Cardiac Disease: Avoid use in patients with known structural cardiac abnormalities, cardiomyopathy, serious cardiac arrhythmia, coronary artery disease, or other serious cardiac disease ( 5.2 ) Increased Blood Pressure and Heart Rate: Monitor blood pressure and pulse. ( 5.3 ) Psychiatric Adverse Reactions: Prior to initiating DYANAVEL XR, screen patients for risk factors for developing a manic episode. If new psychotic or manic symptoms occur, consider discontinuing DYANAVEL XR ( 5.4 ) Long-Term Suppression of Growth in Pediatric Patients: Closely monitor growth (height and weight) in pediatric patients. Pediatric patients not growing or gaining height or weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted ( 5.5 ) Peripheral Vasculopathy, including Raynaud’s phenomenon: Careful observation for digital changes is necessary during DYANAVEL XR treatment. Further clinical evaluation (e.g., rheumatology referral) may be appropriate for patients who develop signs or symptoms of peripheral vasculopathy ( 5.6 ) Serotonin Syndrome: Increased risk when co-administered with serotonergic agents (e.g., SSRIs, SNRIs, triptans), but also during overdosage situations. If it occurs, discontinue DYANAVEL XR and initiate supportive treatment ( 5.7 ). Motor and Verbal Tics, and Worsening of Tourette’s Syndrome: Before initiating DYANAVEL XR, assess the family history and clinically evaluate patients for tics or Tourette’s syndrome. Regularly monitor patients for the emergence or worsening of tics or Tourette’s syndrome. Discontinue treatment if clinically appropriate. ( 5.8 ) 5.1 Abuse, Misuse, and Addiction DYANAVEL XR has a high potential for abuse and misuse. The use of DYANAVEL XR exposes individuals to the risks of abuse and misuse, which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction. DYANAVEL XR can be diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels or distribution [see Drug Abuse and Dependence (9.2) ]. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR, can result in overdose and death [see Overdosage (10) ] , and this risk is increased with higher doses and or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection. Before prescribing DYANAVEL XR, assess each patient’s risk for abuse, misuse, and addiction. Educate patients and their families about these risks and proper disposal of any unused drug. Advise patients to store DYANAVEL XR in a safe place, preferably locked, and instruct patients to not give DYANAVEL XR to anyone else. Throughout DYANAVEL XR treatment, reassess each patient’s risk of abuse, misuse, and addiction and frequently monitor for signs and symptoms of abuse, misuse, and addiction. 5.2 Risks for Patients with Serious Cardiac Disease Sudden death has been reported in patients with structural cardiac abnormalities or other serious cardiac disease who were treated with CNS stimulants at the recommended ADHD dosages. Avoid DYANAVEL XR use in patients with known structural cardiac abnormalities, cardiomyopathy, serious cardiac arrhythmia, coronary artery disease, or other serious cardiac disease. 5.3 Increased Blood Pressure and Heart Rate CNS stimulants cause an increase in blood pressure (mean increase about 2 to 4 mm Hg) and heart rate (mean increase about 3 to 6 bpm). Monitor all DYANAVEL XR-treated patients for potential tachycardia and hypertension. 5.4 Psychiatric Adverse Reactions Exacerbation of Pre-existing Psychosis CNS stimulants may exacerbate symptoms of behavior disturbance and thought disorder in patients with a pre-existing psychotic disorder. Induction of a Manic Episode in Patients with Bipolar Disease CNS stimulants may induce a manic or mixed episode in patients with bipolar disorder. Prior to initiating DYANAVEL XR treatment, screen patients for risk factors for developing a manic episode (e.g., comorbid or history of depressive symptoms or a family history of suicide, bipolar disorder, or depression). New Psychotic or Manic Symptoms CNS stimulants, at the recommended dosage, may cause psychotic or manic symptoms (e.g., hallucinations, delusional thinking, or mania) in patients without prior history of psychotic illness or mania. In a pooled analysis of multiple short-term, placebo-controlled studies of CNS stimulants, psychotic or manic symptoms occurred in approximately 0.1% of CNS stimulant-treated patients compared to 0% of placebo-treated patients. If such symptoms occur, consider discontinuing DYANAVEL XR. 5.5 Long-Term Suppression of Growth in Pediatric Patients DYANAVEL XR is not approved for use and is not recommended in pediatric patients below 6 years of age [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ]. CNS stimulants have been associated with weight loss and slowing of growth rate in pediatric patients. Closely monitor growth (weight and height) in DYANAVEL XR-treated pediatric patients treated with CNS stimulants. Pediatric patients who are not growing or gaining height or weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted. 5.6 Peripheral Vasculopathy, including Raynaud's Phenomenon CNS stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR, used to treat ADHD are associated with peripheral vasculopathy, including Raynaud's phenomenon. Signs and symptoms are usually intermittent and mild; however, sequelae have included digital ulceration and/or soft tissue breakdown. Effects of peripheral vasculopathy, including Raynaud's phenomenon, were observed in post-marketing reports and at the therapeutic dosage of CNS stimulants in all age groups throughout the course of treatment. Signs and symptoms generally improved after dosage reduction or discontinuation of the CNS stimulant. Careful observation for digital changes is necessary during DYANAVEL XR treatment. Further clinical evaluation (e.g., rheumatology referral) may be appropriate for DYANAVEL XR-treated patients who develop signs or symptoms of peripheral vasculopathy. 5.7 Serotonin Syndrome Serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening reaction, may occur when amphetamines are used in combination with other drugs that affect the serotonergic neurotransmitter systems such as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), triptans, tricyclic antidepressants, fentanyl, lithium, tramadol, tryptophan, buspirone, and St. John’s Wort [ see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] . The co-administration with cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) inhibitors may also increase the risk with increased exposure to DYANAVEL XR. In these situations, consider an alternative non-serotonergic drug or an alternative drug that does not inhibit CYP2D6 [ see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] . Serotonin syndrome symptoms may include mental status changes (e.g., agitation, hallucinations, delirium, and coma), autonomic instability (e.g., tachycardia, labile blood pressure, dizziness, diaphoresis, flushing, hyperthermia), neuromuscular symptoms (e.g., tremor, rigidity, myoclonus, hyperreflexia, incoordination), seizures, and/or gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea). Concomitant use of DYANAVEL XR with MAOI drugs is contraindicated [ see Contraindications (4) ] . Discontinue treatment with DYANAVEL XR and any concomitant serotonergic agents immediately if symptoms of serotonin syndrome occur, and initiate supportive symptomatic treatment. If concomitant use of DYANAVEL XR with other serotonergic drugs or CYP2D6 inhibitors is clinically warranted, initiate DYANAVEL XR with lower doses, monitor patients for the emergence of serotonin syndrome during drug initiation or titration, and inform patients of the increased risk for serotonin syndrome. 5.8 Motor and Verbal Tics, and Worsening of Tourette’s Syndrome CNS stimulants, including amphetamine, have been associated with the onset or exacerbation of motor and verbal tics. Worsening of Tourette’s syndrome has also been reported [see Adverse Reactions (6.2) ]. Before initiating DYANAVEL XR, assess the family history and clinically evaluate patients for tics or Tourette’s syndrome. Regularly monitor DYANAVEL XR-treated patients for the emergence or worsening of tics or Tourette’s syndrome, and discontinue treatment if clinically appropriate.
Boxed Warning
ABUSE, MISUSE, AND ADDICTION DYANAVEL XR has a high potential for abuse and misuse, which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR, can result in overdose and death [see Overdosage (10) ] , and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection.

Serious skin rashes, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis have been reported. Endocrine: Impotence, changes in libido. Skin: Alopecia. Adverse Reactions in Studies with DYANAVEL XR in Pediatric Patients with ADHD There is limited experience with DYANAVEL XR in controlled trials. Based on this limited experience, the adverse reaction profile of DYANAVEL XR appears similar to other amphetamine extended-release products. The most common (≥2% in the DYANAVEL XR group and greater than placebo) adverse reactions reported in the Phase 3 controlled study conducted with DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension in 108 patients with ADHD (aged 6 to 12 years) were: epistaxis, allergic rhinitis, and upper abdominal pain. Table 1. Common Adverse Reactions Occurring in ≥2% of Patients on DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Oral Suspension and Greater than Placebo During the Double Blind Phase. Preferred Term DYANAVEL XR (N=52) Placebo (N=48) Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders Epistaxis 3.8% 0% Rhinitis allergic 3.8% 0% Gastrointestinal disorders Abdominal pain upper 3.8% 2.1% 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during post approval use of other amphetamine products. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Allergic : urticaria, rash, hypersensitivity reactions including angioedema and anaphylaxis. Serious skin rashes, including Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis have been reported Cardiovascular : palpitations, sudden death, myocardial infarction. There have been isolated reports of cardiomyopathy associated with chronic amphetamine use Central Nervous System : restlessness, irritability, euphoria, dyskinesia, dysphoria, depression, tremor, aggression, anger, logorrhea, and paresthesia (including formication), motor and verbal tics Endocrine : impotence, changes in libido, frequent or prolonged erections Eye Disorders : vision blurred, mydriasis Gastrointestinal : unpleasant taste, constipation, intestinal ischemia, and other gastrointestinal disturbances Musculoskeletal, Connective Tissue, and Bone Disorders : rhabdomyolysis Psychiatric Disorders : dermatillomania, bruxism Skin : alopecia Vascular Disorders : Raynaud’s phenomenon

Drug Interactions

Acidifying and Alkalinizing Agents: Agents that alter urinary pH can alter blood levels of amphetamine. Acidifying agents can decrease amphetamine blood levels, while alkalinizing agents can increase amphetamine blood levels. Adjust DYANAVEL XR dosage accordingly ( 2.5 , 7.1 ) 7.1 Drugs Having Clinically Important Interactions with Amphetamines Table 2. Drugs having clinically important interactions with amphetamines. MAO Inhibitors (MAOI) Clinical Impact MAOI antidepressants slow amphetamine metabolism, increasing amphetamines effect on the release of norepinephrine and other monoamines from adrenergic nerve endings causing headaches and other signs of hypertensive crisis. Toxic neurological effects and malignant hyperpyrexia can occur, sometimes with fatal results. Intervention Do not administer DYANAVEL XR concomitantly or within 14 days following administration of MAOI [ see Contraindications (4) and Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] . Serotonergic Drugs Clinical Impact The concomitant use of DYANAVEL XR and serotonergic drugs increases the risk of serotonin syndrome. Intervention Initiate with lower doses and monitor patients for signs and symptoms of serotonin syndrome, particularly during DYANAVEL XR initiation or dosage increase. If serotonin syndrome occurs, discontinue DYANAVEL XR and the concomitant serotonergic drug(s) [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7 ) ] . CYP2D6 Inhibitors Clinical Impact The concomitant use of DYANAVEL XR and CYP2D6 inhibitors may increase the exposure of DYANAVEL XR compared to the use of the drug alone and increase the risk of serotonin syndrome. Intervention Initiate with lower doses and monitor patients for signs and symptoms of serotonin syndrome particularly during DYANAVEL XR initiation and after a dosage increase. If serotonin syndrome occurs, discontinue DYANAVEL XR and the CYP2D6 inhibitor [ see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) , Overdosage (10) ] . Alkalinizing Agents (Urinary and Gastrointestinal) Clinical Impact Increase blood levels and potentiate the action of amphetamine. Intervention Co-administration of DYANAVEL XR and gastrointestinal or urinary alkalinizing agents should be avoided. Acidifying Agents (Urinary and Gastrointestinal) Clinical Impact Lower blood levels and efficacy of amphetamines. Intervention Increase dose based on clinical response. Tricyclic Antidepressants Clinical Impact May enhance the activity of tricyclic or sympathomimetic agents causing striking and sustained increases in the concentration of d- amphetamine in the brain; cardiovascular effects can be potentiated. Intervention Monitor frequently and adjust or use alternative therapy based on clinical response. 7.2 Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions Amphetamines can cause a significant elevation in plasma corticosteroid levels. This increase is greatest in the evening. Amphetamines may interfere with urinary steroid determinations.
