Summary of the safety profile The most frequently occurring (≥5% of patients) adverse reactions were all in the gastrointestinal disorders system organ class: nausea (very common), vomiting (very common), upper abdominal pain (very common), constipation (very common), diarrhea (common), dyspepsia (common) and flatulence (common). Constipation can be an early symptom of serious gastrointestinal adverse reactions. The most serious adverse reactions are hypersensitivity (very rare frequency), intestinal obstruction (not known frequency), ileus/subileus (not known frequency), intestinal perforation (not known frequency), serious inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders associated with the presence of sevelamer crystals (not known frequency). Tabulated list of adverse reactions The safety of sevelamer (as either carbonate and hydrochloride salts) has been investigated in numerous clinical trials involving a total of 969 haemodialysis patients with treatment duration of 4 to 50 weeks (724 patients treated with sevelamer hydrochloride and 245 with sevelamer carbonate), 97 peritoneal dialysis patients with treatment duration of 12 weeks (all treated with sevelamer hydrochloride) and 128 patients with CKD not on dialysis with treatment duration of 8 to 12 weeks (79 patients treatment with sevelamer hydrochloride and 49 with sevelamer carbonate). Adverse reactions that occurred during clinical trials or that were spontaneously reported from post- marketing experience are listed by frequency in the table below. The reporting rate is classified as very common (≥1/10), common (≥1/100 to <1/10), uncommon (≥1/1,000 to <1/100), rare (≥1/10,000 to <1/1,000), very rare (<1/10,000), not known (cannot be estimated from the available data). 28 MedDRA System Very common Common Very rare Not known Organ Class Immune system Hypersensitivity disorders Gastrointestinal Nausea, Diarrhoea, Intestinal disorders Vomiting, Dyspepsia, obstruction, Upper abdominal Flatulence, Ileus/subileus, pain, Abdominal pain Intestinal Constip

HOS-216999 · has-interaction-information · PDF-Seite 16
Dialysis Interaction studies have not been conducted in patients on dialysis. Ciprofloxacin In interaction studies in healthy volunteers, sevelamer hydrochloride, which contains the same active moiety as sevelamer carbonate, decreased the bioavailability of ciprofloxacin by approximately 50% when co- administered with sevelamer hydrochloride in a single dose study. Consequently, sevelamer carbonate should not be taken simultaneously with ciprofloxacin. Ciclosporin, mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus in transplant patients Reduced levels of ciclosporin, mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus have been reported in transplant patients when co-administered with sevelamer hydrochloride without any clinical consequences (e.g., graft rejection). The possibility of an interaction cannot be excluded and a close monitoring of blood concentrations of ciclosporin, mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus should be considered during the use of combination and after its withdrawal. Levothyroxine Very rare cases of hypothyroidism have been reported in patients co-administered with sevelamer hydrochloride, which contains the same active moiety as sevelamer carbonate, and levothyroxine. Closer monitoring of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels is therefore recommended in patients receiving sevelamer carbonate and levothyroxine. Anti-arrhythmics and anti-seizure medicinal products Patients taking anti-arrhythmic medicinal products for the control of arrhythmias and anti-seizure medicinal products for the control of seizure disorders were excluded from clinical trials. Therefore, possible reduction in absorption cannot be excluded. The anti-arrhythmic medicinal product should be taken at least one hour before or three hours after Sevelamer carbonate Winthrop and blood monitoring can be considered. Proton pump inhibitors During post-marketing experience, very rare cases of increased phosphate levels have been reported in patients taking proton pump inhibitors co-administered with sevelamer carbonate. Caution should be exercised when prescribing PPI to patients concomitantly treated with Sevelamer carbonate Winthrop. The phosphate serum level should be monitored and the Sevelamer carbonate dosage adjusted consequently. Bioavailability Sevelamer carbonate is not absorbed and may affect the bioavailability of other medicinal products. When administering any medicinal product where a reduction in the bioavailability could have a clinically significant effect on safet

Pregnancy There are no or limited amount of data from the use of sevelamer in pregnant women. Animal studies have shown some reproductive toxicity when sevelamer was administered to rats at high doses (see section 5.3). Sevelamer has also been shown to reduce the absorption of several vitamins including folic acid (see sections 4.4 and 5.3). The potential risk to humans is unknown. Sevelamer carbonate should only be given to pregnant women if clearly needed and after a careful risk/benefit analysis has been conducted for both the mother and the foetus. Breast-feeding It is unknown whether sevelamer/metabolites are excreted in human milk. The non-absorbed nature of sevelamer indicates that excretion of sevelamer in breast milk is unlikely. A decision on whether to continue/discontinue breast-feeding or to continue/discontinue therapy with sevelamer carbonate should be made taking into account the benefit of breast-feeding to the child and the benefit of sevelamer carbonate therapy to the woman. Fertility There are no data from the effect of sevelamer on fertility in humans. Studies in animals have shown that sevelamer did not impair fertility in male or female rats at exposures at a human equivalent dose 2 times the maximum clinical trial dose of 13 g/day, based on a comparison of relative BSA.Abschnitt im Original →

The safety and efficacy of sevelamer carbonate have not been established in adult patients with chronic kidney disease not on dialysis with serum phosphorus < 1.78 mmol/l. Therefore it is currently not recommended for use in these patients. The safety and efficacy of sevelamer carbonate have not been established in patients with the following disorders: • dysphagia • swallowing disorders • severe gastrointestinal motility disorders including untreated or severe gastroparesis, retention of gastric contents and abnormal or irregular bowel motion • active inflammatory bowel disease • major gastrointestinal tract surgery Treatment of these patients with Sevelamer carbonate Winthrop should only be initiated after careful benefit/risk assessment. If the therapy is initiated, patients suffering from these disorders should be monitored. Sevelamer carbonate treatment should be reevaluated in patients who develop severe constipation or other severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Intestinal obstruction and ileus/subileus In very rare cases, intestinal obstruction and ileus/subileus have been observed in patients during treatment with sevelamer hydrochloride (capsules/tablets), which contains the same active moiety as sevelamer carbonate. Constipation may be a preceding symptom. Patients who are constipated should be monitored carefully while being treated with sevelamer carbonate. The treatment should be re-evaluated in patients who develop severe constipation or other severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Fat-soluble vitamins and folate deficiency Patients with CKD may develop low levels of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, depending on dietary intake and the severity of their disease. It cannot be excluded that sevelamer carbonate can bind fat-soluble vitamins contained in ingested food. In patients not taking supplemental vitamins but on sevelamer, serum vitamin A, D, E and K status should be assessed regularly. It is recommended that vitamin supplements be 14 given if necessary. It is recommended that CKD patients not on dialysis are given vitamin D supplements (approximately 400 IU of native vitamin D daily) which can be part of a multivitamin preparation to be taken apart from their dose of sevelamer carbonate. In patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis additional monitoring of fat-soluble vitamins and folic acid is recommended, since vitamin A, D, E and K levels were not measure
