INDICATIONS AND USAGE

Antoxid-HC (Manganese) 0.1 mg/mL (Manganese Chloride Injection, USP) is indicated for use as a supplement to intravenous solutions given for total parenteral nutrition (TPN).

Administration helps to maintain Antoxid-HC (Manganese) serum levels and to prevent depletion of endogenous stores and subsequent deficiency symptoms.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

None known.

WARNINGS

Direct intramuscular or intravenous injection of Antoxid-HC (Manganese) 0.1 mg/mL (Manganese Chloride Injection, USP) is contraindicated as the acidic pH of the solution (pH 2.0) may cause considerable tissue irritation.

Liver and/or biliary tract dysfunction may require omission or reduction of copper and Antoxid-HC (Manganese) doses because these elements are primarily eliminated in the bile.

WARNING: This product contains aluminum that may be toxic. Aluminum may reach toxic levels with prolonged parenteral administration if kidney function is impaired. Premature neonates are particularly at risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions, which contain aluminum.

Research indicates that patients with impaired kidney function, including premature neonates, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than 4 to 5 mcg/kg/day accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration.

PRECAUTIONS

General

Do not use unless solution is clear and seal is intact.

Antoxid-HC 0.1 mg/mL (Manganese Chloride Injection, USP) should only be used in conjunction with a pharmacy directed admixture program using aseptic technique in a laminar flow environment; it should be used promptly and in a single operation without any repeated penetrations. Solution contains no preservatives; discard unused portion immediately after admixture procedure is completed.

Laboratory Tests

Serum Antoxid-HC (Manganese) levels can be measured periodically at the discretion of the investigator. Because of the low serum concentration normally present, samples will usually be analyzed by a reference laboratory.

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, and Impairment of Fertility

Long-term animal studies to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of Antoxid-HC 0.1 mg/mL (Manganese Chloride Injection, USP) have not been performed, nor have studies been done to assess mutagenesis or impairment of fertility.

Nursing Mothers

It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when Antoxid-HC (Manganese) 0.1 mg/mL (Manganese Chloride Injection, USP) additive is administered to a nursing woman.

Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.

Pregnancy Category C.

Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with Antoxid-HC (Manganese) chloride. It is also not known whether Antoxid-HC (Manganese) chloride can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproductive capacity. Antoxid-HC (Manganese) chloride should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly indicated.

Geriatric Use

An evaluation of current literature revealed no clinical experience identifying differences in response between elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.

Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate):



Rx Only

TRACE ELEMENT ADDITIVE FOR IV USE AFTER DILUTION

DESCRIPTION

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection is a sterile, nonpyrogenic solution for use as an additive to solutions for Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN).

Each mL contains Selenious Acid 65.4 mcg (equivalent to elemental Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) 40 mcg/mL) and Water for Injection q.s. pH may be adjusted with nitric acid to 1.8 to 2.4.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) is part of glutathione peroxidase which protects cell components from oxidative damage due to peroxides produced in cellular metabolism.

Prolonged TPN support in humans has resulted in Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) deficiency symptoms which include muscle pain and tenderness. The symptoms have been reported to respond to supplementation of TPN solutions with Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)).

Pediatric conditions, Keshan disease, and Kwashiorkor, have been associated with low dietary intake of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)). The conditions are endemic to geographical areas with low Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) soil content. Dietary supplementation with Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) salts has been reported to reduce the incidence of the conditions among affected children.

Normal blood levels of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) in different human populations have been found to vary and depend on the Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) content of the food consumed. Results of surveys carried out in some countries are tabulated below:

INDICATIONS AND USAGE

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection is indicated for use as a supplement to intravenous solutions given for total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Administration of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) in TPN solutions helps to maintain plasma Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) levels and to prevent depletion of endogenous stores and subsequent deficiency symptoms.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection should not be given undiluted by direct injection into a peripheral vein because of the potential for infusion phlebitis.

WARNINGS

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection can be toxic if given in excessive amounts. Supplementation of TPN solution with Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) should be immediately discontinued if toxicity symptoms are observed. Frequent determination of plasma Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) levels during TPN support and close medical supervision is recommended.

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection is a hypotonic solution and should be administered in admixtures only.

This product contains aluminum that may be toxic. Aluminum may reach toxic levels with prolonged parenteral administration if kidney function is impaired. Premature neonates are particularly at risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions, which contain aluminum.

Research indicates that patients with impaired kidney function, including premature neonates, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than 4 to 5 mcg/kg/day accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration.

PRECAUTIONS

As Antoxid-HC ) is eliminated in urine and feces, Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) supplements may be adjusted, reduced or omitted in renal dysfunction and/or gastrointestinal malfunction. In patients receiving blood transfusions, contribution from such transfusions should also be considered. Frequent Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) plasma level determinations are suggested as a guideline.

In animals, Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) has been reported to enhance the action of Vitamin E and decrease the toxicity of mercury, cadmium and arsenic.

Pregnancy

Teratogenic Effects

Pregnancy Category C: Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) at high dose levels (15-30 mcg/egg) has been reported to have adverse embryological effects among chickens. There are however, no adequate and wellcontrolled studies in pregnant women. Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection should be used during pregnancy only if potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.

Presence of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) in placenta and umbilical cord blood has been reported in humans.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The amount of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) present in Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection is small. Symptoms of toxicity from Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) are unlikely to occur at the recommended dosage level.

OVERDOSAGE

Chronic toxicity in humans resulting from exposure to Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) in industrial environments, intake of foods grown in seleniferous soils, use of selenium-contaminated water, and application of cosmetics containing Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) has been reported in literature. Toxicity symptoms include hair loss, weakened nails, dermatitis, dental defects, gastrointestinal disorders, nervousness, mental depression, metallic taste, vomiting, and garlic odor of breath and sweat. Acute poisoning due to ingestion of large amounts of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) compounds has resulted in death with histopathological changes including fulminating peripheral vascular collapse, internal vascular congestion, diffusely hemorrhagic, congested and edematus lungs, brick-red color gastric mucosa. The death was preceded by coma.

No effective antidote to Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) poisoning in humans is known. Animal studies have shown casein and linseed oil in feeds, reduced glutathione, arsenic, magnesium sulfate, and bromobenzene to afford limited protection.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection provides 40 mcg selenium/mL. For metabolically stable adults receiving TPN, the suggested additive dosage level is 20 to 40 mcg selenium/day. For pediatric patients, the suggested additive dosage level is 3 mcg/kg/day.

In adults, Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) deficiency states resulting from long-term TPN support, Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) as selenomethionine or selenious acid, administered intravenously at 100 mcg/day for a period of 24 and 31 days, respectively, has been reported to reverse deficiency symptoms without toxicity.

Aseptic addition of Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) Injection to the TPN solution under laminar flow hood is recommended. Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) is physically compatible with the electrolytes and other trace elements usually present in amino-acid/dextrose solution used for TPN. Frequent monitoring of plasma Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) levels is suggested as a guideline for subsequent administration. The normal whole blood range for Antoxid-HC (Selenium (Selenium Dioxide Monohydrate)) is approximately 10 to 37 mcg/100 mL.

Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration, whenever solution and container permit.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

None known.

DRUG ABUSE AND DEPENDENCE

None known.

OVERDOSAGE

Single intravenous doses of 1 to 2 mg zinc/kg body weight have been given to adult leukemic patients without toxic manifestations. However, acute toxicity was reported in an adult when 10 mg Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) was infused over a period of one hour on each of four consecutive days. Profuse sweating, decreased level of consciousness, blurred vision, tachycardia (140/min), and marked hypothermia (94.2° F) on the fourth day were accompanied by a serum Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) concentration of 207 mcg/dl. Symptoms abated within three hours.

Hyperamylasemia may be a sign of impending Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) overdosage; patients receiving an inadvertent overdose (25 mg zinc/liter of TPN solution, equivalent to 50 to 70 mg zinc/day) developed hyperamylasemia (557 to 1850 Klein units; normal: 130 to 310).

Death resulted from an overdosage in which 1683 mg Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) was delivered intravenously over the course of 60 hours to a 72 year old patient.

Symptoms of Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) toxicity included hypotension (80/40 mm Hg), pulmonary edema, diarrhea, vomiting, jaundice, and oliguria, with a serum Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) level of 4184 mcg/dl.

Calcium supplements may confer a protective effect against Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) toxicity.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) 1 mg/mL (Zinc Chloride Injection, USP) contains 1 mg zinc/mL and is administered intravenously only after dilution. The additive should be diluted prior to administration in a volume of fluid not less than 100 mL. For the metabolically stable adult receiving TPN, the suggested intravenous dosage is 2.5 to 4 mg zinc/day (2.5 to 4 mL/day). An additional 2 mg zinc/day (2 mL/day) is suggested for acute catabolic states. For the stable adult with fluid loss from the small bowel, an additional 12.2 mg zinc/liter of small bowel fluid lost (12.2 mL/liter of small bowel fluid lost), or an additional 17.1 mg zinc/kg of stool or ileostomy output (17.1 mL/kg of stool or ileostomy output) is recommended. Frequent monitoring of Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate) blood levels is suggested for patients receiving more than the usual maintenance dosage level of Antoxid-HC (Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate).

For full term infants and children up to 5 years of age, 100 mcg zinc/kg/day (0.1 mL/kg/day) is recommended. For premature infants (birth weight less than 1500 g) up to 3 kg in body weight, 300 mcg zinc/kg/day (0.3 mL/kg/day) is suggested.

Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. See PRECAUTIONS.
