8 Use in Specific Populations

8.2 Lactation

Additions and/or revisions underlined:

Risk Summary

Tenapanor and its major metabolite, M1, were not detected in the breast milk of lactating woman (see Data). In adults, concentrations of tenapanor were below the limit of quantitation in plasma following multiple doses of tenapanor [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Maternal use of XPHOZAH is not expected to result in exposure to tenapanor or its major metabolite in breastfed infants. There is no information on the effects of tenapanor or M1 on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for XPHOZAH and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from XPHOZAH or from the underlying maternal condition.

Data

A clinical lactation study was conducted in seven healthy adult women who were 22 to 37 years of age. Following oral administration of tenapanor 50 mg twice daily for 3 days, the concentrations of tenapanor and its major metabolite were below the limit of quantitation (< 1 ng/mL and <1ng/mL) in all breast milk samples collected over 24 hours post dosing.

6 Adverse Reactions

Newly added subsection:

6.2 Postmarketing Experience

The following adverse reactions have been identified during post approval use of XPHOZAH. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

Hypersensitivity reactions: pruritis, rash, and urticaria
