2.1 Important Information Prior to Initiating Treatment

Prior to initiating treatment 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)].

Assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing, and monitor for signs of abuse and dependence while on therapy. Maintain careful prescription records, educate patients about abuse, monitor for signs of abuse and overdose, and periodically re-evaluate the need for DYANAVEL XR use [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1), and Drug Abuse and Dependence (9)].

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.

Pharmacological treatment of ADHD may be needed for extended periods. Healthcare providers should periodically re-evaluate the long-term use of DYANAVEL XR, and adjust dosage as needed.

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)].

5.1 Potential for Abuse and Dependence

CNS stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR, other amphetamine-containing products, and methylphenidate, have a high potential for abuse and dependence. Assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing, and monitor for signs of abuse and dependence while on therapy [see Boxed Warning, Drug Abuse and Dependence (9.2, 9.3)].

5.2 Serious Cardiovascular Reactions

Sudden death, stroke and myocardial infarction have been reported in adults with CNS stimulant treatment at recommended doses. Sudden death has been reported in pediatric patients with structural cardiac abnormalities and other serious heart problems taking CNS stimulants at recommended doses for ADHD. Avoid use in patients with known structural cardiac abnormalities, cardiomyopathy, serious heart arrhythmia, coronary artery disease, and other serious heart problems. Further evaluate patients who develop exertional chest pain, unexplained syncope, or arrhythmias during DYANAVEL XR treatment.

5.3 Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Increases

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 patients for potential tachycardia and hypertension.

5.4 Psychiatric Adverse Reactions

Exacerbation of Preexisting Psychosis

CNS stimulants may exacerbate symptoms of behavior disturbance and thought disorder in patients with a preexisting psychotic disorder.

Induction of a Manic Episode in Patients with Bipolar Illness

CNS stimulants may induce a mixed or manic episode in patients with bipolar disorder. Prior to initiating 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 recommended doses, may cause psychotic or manic symptoms, e.g., hallucinations, delusional thinking, or mania in patients without prior history of psychotic illness or mania. If such symptoms occur, consider discontinuing DYANAVEL XR. In a pooled analysis of multiple short-term, placebo-controlled studies of CNS stimulants, psychotic or manic symptoms occurred in 0.1% of CNS stimulant-treated patients compared to 0% in placebo-treated patients.

5.5 Long-Term Suppression of Growth

CNS stimulants have been associated with weight loss and slowing of growth rate in pediatric patients. Closely monitor growth (weight and height) in pediatric patients treated with CNS stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR.

Patients who are not growing or gaining height or weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].

5.6 Peripheral Vasculopathy, including Raynaud's Phenomenon

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, very rare sequelae include digital ulceration and/or soft tissue breakdown. Effects of peripheral vasculopathy, including Raynaud's phenomenon, were observed in post-marketing reports at different times and at therapeutic doses in all age groups throughout the course of treatment. Signs and symptoms generally improve after reduction in dose or discontinuation of drug. Careful observation for digital changes is necessary during treatment with ADHD stimulants. Further clinical evaluation (e.g., rheumatology referral) may be appropriate for certain patients.

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.

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.

Clinical Trials Experience with Other Amphetamine Products in Pediatric Patients and Adults with ADHD

Cardiovascular: Palpitations, tachycardia, elevation of blood pressure, sudden death, myocardial infarction. There have been isolated reports of cardiomyopathy associated with chronic amphetamine use.

Central Nervous System: Psychotic episodes at recommended doses, overstimulation, restlessness, irritability, euphoria, dyskinesia, dysphoria, depression, tremor, tics, aggression, anger, logorrhea.

Eye Disorders: Vision blurred, mydriasis.

Gastrointestinal: Dryness of the mouth, unpleasant taste, diarrhea, constipation, other gastrointestinal disturbances. Anorexia and weight loss may occur as undesirable effects.

Allergic: Urticaria, rash, hypersensitivity reactions including angioedema and anaphylaxis. Serious skin rashes, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis have been reported.

Endocrine: Impotence, changes in libido.

Skin: Alopecia.

Clinical Trials Experience 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.

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)

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

7.1 Drugs Having Clinically Important Interactions with Amphetamines

Table 2. Drugs having clinically important interactions with amphetamines.

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.

8.1 Pregnancy

Pregnancy Exposure Registry

There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to DYANAVEL XR during pregnancy. Healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by calling the National Pregnancy Registry for Psychostimulants at 1-866-961-2388 or visiting online at https://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/othermedications/.

Risk Summary

There are limited published data on the use of amphetamines in pregnant women. These data are insufficient to determine a drug-associated risk of major congenital malformations or miscarriage. Adverse pregnancy outcomes, including premature delivery and low birth weight, have been seen in infants born to mothers dependent on amphetamines. No effects on morphological development were observed in embryo-fetal development studies with oral administration of amphetamine to rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses that are approximately 3 and 16 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 20 mg/day (as base equivalents) on a mg/m2 basis, given to adults. However, long-term neurochemical and behavioral effects have been reported in published animal developmental studies using clinically relevant doses of amphetamine [see Data]. 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

Amphetamines, such as DYANAVEL XR, may cause vasoconstriction, including vasoconstriction of placental blood vessels, and may increase the risk for intrauterine growth restriction. In addition, amphetamines can stimulate uterine contractions increasing the risk of premature delivery. Premature delivery and low birth weight infants have been reported in amphetamine-dependent mothers.

Monitor infants born to mothers taking amphetamines for symptoms of withdrawal, such as feeding difficulties, irritability, agitation, and excessive drowsiness.

8.2 Lactation

Risk Summary

Based on limited case reports in published literature, amphetamine (d- or d, l-) is present in human milk, at relative infant doses of 2% to 13.8% of the maternal weight-adjusted dosage and a milk/plasma ratio ranging between 1.9 and 7.5. There are no reports of adverse effects on the breastfed infant and no effects on milk production. However, long term neurodevelopmental effects on infants from stimulant exposure are unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed infant, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with DYANAVEL XR.

8.4 Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness have been established in pediatric patients with ADHD ages 6 to 17 years [see Adverse Reactions (6.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12), and Clinical Studies (14)]. Safety and efficacy in pediatric patients younger than 6 years with ADHD have not been established.

Long-Term Growth Suppression

Growth should be monitored during treatment with stimulants, including DYANAVEL XR, and pediatric patients who are not growing or gaining weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)].

8.5 Geriatric Use

DYANAVEL XR has not been studied in the geriatric population.

9.1 Controlled Substance

DYANAVEL XR contains amphetamine, a Schedule II controlled substance.

9.2 Abuse

DYANAVEL XR, is a CNS stimulant that contains amphetamine which has a high potential for abuse. Abuse is the intentional, non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, for its desirable psychological or physiological effects. Drug addiction is a cluster of behavioral, cognitive, and physiological phenomena that may include a strong desire to take the drug, difficulties in controlling drug use (e.g., continuing drug use despite harmful consequences, giving higher priority to drug use than other activities and obligations), and possible tolerance or physical dependence. Both abuse and misuse may lead to addiction, and some individuals may develop addiction even when taking DYANAVEL XR as prescribed.

Signs and symptoms of amphetamine abuse may include increased heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and/or sweating, dilated pupils, hyperactivity, restlessness, insomnia, decreased appetite, loss of coordination, tremors, flushed skin, vomiting, and/or abdominal pain. Anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed. Individuals who abuse amphetamines may use unapproved routes of administration which can result in overdose and death [see Overdosage (10)].

To reduce the abuse of DYANAVEL XR, assess the risk of abuse prior to prescribing. After prescribing, keep careful prescription records, educate patients and their families about abuse and on proper storage and disposal of CNS stimulants, monitor for signs of abuse while on therapy, and re-evaluate the need for DYANAVEL XR use.

9.3 Dependence

Tolerance

Tolerance is a physiological state characterized by a reduced response to a drug after repeated administration (i.e., a higher dose of a drug is required to produce the same effect that was once obtained at a lower dose). Tolerance may occur during the chronic therapy of CNS stimulants including DYANAVEL XR.

Dependence

Physical dependence is a state that develops as a result of physiological adaptation in response to repeated drug use, manifested by withdrawal signs and symptoms after abrupt discontinuation, a significant dose reduction of a drug, or administration of an antagonist and may occur in patients treated with CNS stimulants including DYANAVEL XR. Withdrawal symptoms after abrupt cessation following prolonged high-dosage administration of CNS stimulants include dysphoric mood; fatigue; vivid, unpleasant dreams; insomnia or hypersomnia; increased appetite; and psychomotor retardation or agitation.

12.1 Mechanism of Action

Amphetamines are non-catecholamine sympathomimetic amines with CNS stimulant activity. The mode of therapeutic action in ADHD is not known.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics

Amphetamines block the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine into the presynaptic neuron and increase the release of these monoamines into the extraneuronal space.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics

Absorption

Extended-Release Oral Suspension

Following a single 18.8 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension in 29 healthy adult subjects under fasting conditions in a crossover study, the median (range) time to peak plasma concentrations (Tmax) for both d- and l- isomers of amphetamine were 4 (2 to 7) hours after dosing. Peak concentrations (Cmax) of d- and l-amphetamine were 102% and 106%, respectively, of the Cmax of immediate-release (IR) mixed amphetamine salts (MAS) tablets. The relative bioavailability of DYANAVEL XR compared with an equal dose of IR MAS tablets is 106% for d- and 111% for l-amphetamine.

Following a single 18.8 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension in 28 healthy adult subjects in a crossover study under fasting conditions, the median (range) time to peak plasma concentrations (Tmax) were about 4 (2 to 7) hours and 5 (3 to 7) hours for d- and l-amphetamine, respectively. Peak concentration (Cmax) was 93% and 94%, respectively, of the Cmax of extended release (ER) MAS capsules. The relative bioavailability of DYANAVEL XR compared with an equal dose of ER MAS capsules is 94% for both d- and l-amphetamine.

Figure 1. Mean d- and l-Amphetamine Plasma Concentration-Time Profile Following Administration of a Single Dose (18.8 mg amphetamine base) of DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Oral Suspension and MAS ER Under Fasting Conditions

Extended-Release Tablet

Following a single 20 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release tablets (swallowed whole) to 36 healthy adults under fasted conditions in a crossover study, the median (range) time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) for both d- and l-amphetamine, were 5.0 (2 to 9) hours after dosing. Peak concentrations (Cmax) for both d- and l-amphetamine, were 101% of the Cmax of DYANAVEL XR oral suspension. The relative bioavailability of DYANAVEL XR tablets compared with an equal dose of DYANAVEL XR oral suspension, for d- and l-amphetamine, were 105% and 106%, respectively.

Dyanavel XR extended-release tablets chewed or swallowed whole under fasted conditions did not significantly affect exposure and Tmax.

Figure 2. Mean Plasma d-and l-Amphetamine Concentration-Time Profiles for DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Tablet and DYANAVEL XR Extended-Release Oral Suspension

Effect of Food

Extended-Release Oral Suspension

Ingestion of 18.8 mg of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension with a high-fat meal increased the average Cmax of both isomers of DYANAVEL XR by about 2%, decreased the AUC of d- and l-amphetamine by 5.7% and 7.4%, respectively. A delay of Tmax by approximately 1 hour was observed for both isomers.

Extended-Release Tablet

Ingestion of 20 mg DYANAVEL XR extended-release tablets with a high-fat meal decreased the average Cmax of both isomers of amphetamine by about 3%, decreased AUC of d- and l-amphetamine by about 4.0% and 7.3%, respectively. Median Tmax was not delayed for either isomer.

Elimination

The mean plasma terminal elimination half-lives of d- and l-amphetamine were 12.4 hours and 15.1 hours, respectively, following a single 18.8 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension.

The mean plasma terminal elimination half-lives of d- and l-amphetamine were 13.5 hours and 17.3 hours, respectively, following a single 20 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release tablets.

Metabolism

Amphetamine is reported to be oxidized at the 4 position of the benzene ring to form 4‑hydroxyamphetamine, or on the side chain A or B carbons to form alpha-hydroxy-amphetamine or norephedrine, respectively. Norephedrine and 4-hydroxy-amphetamine are both active and each is subsequently oxidized to form 4-hydroxy-norephedrine. Alpha-hydroxy-amphetamine undergoes deamination to form phenylacetone, which ultimately forms benzoic acid and its glucuronide and the glycine conjugate hippuric acid. Although the enzymes involved in amphetamine metabolism have not been clearly defined, CYP2D6 is known to be involved with formation of 4-hydroxy-amphetamine. Because CYP2D6 is genetically polymorphic, population variations in amphetamine metabolism are a possibility.

Excretion

With normal urine pH, approximately half of an administered dose of amphetamine is recoverable in urine as derivatives of alpha-hydroxy-amphetamine and approximately another 30%-40% of the dose is recoverable in urine as amphetamine itself.

Specific Populations

Pediatric Patients

Following a single 10 mg dose of DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension in pediatric subjects with ADHD (aged 6 to 12 years) under fasting conditions, peak plasma concentrations of d-and l-amphetamine occurred at a median time of 3.9 and 4.5 hours after dosing, respectively. The mean plasma terminal elimination half-lives of d- and l-amphetamine were 10.4 hours and 12.1 hours, respectively.

Patients with Hepatic or Renal Impairment

No specific studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of renal impairment or hepatic impairment on the PK after DYANAVEL XR administration. However, urinary recovery of amphetamine has been reported to range from 1% to 75%, depending on urinary pH, with the remaining fraction of the dose hepatically metabolized. Consequently, both hepatic and renal dysfunctions have the potential to inhibit the elimination of amphetamine and result in prolonged exposures.

Drug Interaction Studies

CYP Enzymes

In vitro experiments with human microsomes indicate minor inhibition of CYP2D6 by amphetamine and minor inhibition of CYP1A2, 2D6, and 3A4 by one or more metabolites. However, because of the probability of auto-inhibition and the lack of information on the concentration of these metabolites relative to in vivo concentrations, no predications regarding the potential for amphetamine or its metabolites to inhibit the metabolism of other drugs by CYP isozymes in vivo can be made.

Urine pH Modulators

Because amphetamine has a pKa of 9.9, urinary recovery of amphetamine is highly dependent on pH and urine flow rates. Alkaline urine pH results in less ionization and reduced renal elimination; acidic pH and high flow rates result in increased renal elimination with clearances greater than glomerular filtration rates, indicating the involvement of active secretion. In addition, any decrease in amphetamine’s metabolism that might occur due to drug interactions or genetic polymorphisms is more likely to be clinically significant when renal elimination is decreased [see Drug Interactions (7.1)].

Alcohol Effect

There is no in vivo study conducted for the effect of alcohol on drug exposure. An in vitro dissolution study on DYANAVEL XR extended-release oral suspension showed alcohol-induced dose dumping potential in the presence of 40% alcohol. A similar study on the DYANAVEL XR extended-release tablets showed no alcohol-induced dose dumping in the presence of 40% alcohol. Dose dumping was not observed in the presence of 5%, 10%, or 20% alcohol concentrations for either product.

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Carcinogenesis

No evidence of carcinogenicity was found in studies in which d, l-amphetamine (enantiomer ratio of 1:1) was administered to mice and rats in the diet for 2 years at doses of up to 30 mg/kg/day in male mice, 19 mg/kg/day in female mice, and 5 mg/kg/day in male and female rats. These doses are approximately 7, 5, and 2 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose of 20- mg/day (as base equivalents) given to adults, on a mg/m2 basis.

Mutagenesis

Amphetamine, in the enantiomer ratio (d- to l- ratio of approximately 3:1), was not clastogenic in the mouse bone marrow micronucleus test in vivo and was negative when tested in the E. coli component of the Ames test in vitro. d, l-Amphetamine (1:1 enantiomer ratio) has been reported to produce a positive response in the mouse bone marrow micronucleus test, an equivocal response in the Ames test, and negative responses in the in vitro sister chromatid exchange and chromosomal aberration assays.

Impairment of Fertility

Amphetamine, in the enantiomer ratio (d- to l- ratio of approximately 3:1), did not adversely affect fertility or early embryonic development in the rat at doses of up to 20 mg/kg/day [approximately 10 times the maximum recommended human dose of 20 mg/day (as base equivalents) given to adults on a mg/m2 basis].

13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology

Acute administration of high doses of amphetamine (d- or d, l-) has been shown to produce long-lasting neurotoxic effects, including irreversible nerve fiber damage, in rodents. The significance of these findings to humans is unknown.

• Check the DYANAVEL XR bottle to make sure that the bottle adapter has been inserted into the bottle by the pharmacist. Do not remove the bottle adapter.
