Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS No formal drug interaction studies have been performed with DUAKLIR PRESSAIR. • Use of other adrenergic by any route may potentiate the effect of DUAKLIR PRESSAIR. Use with caution. ( 5.3 , 7.1 ) • Xanthine derivatives, steroids, diuretics or non-potassium sparing diuretics may potentiate hypokalemia or ECG changes. Use with caution. ( 7.2 , 7.3 ) • Diuretics: Use with caution. Electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia associated with non-potassium sparing diuretics may worsen with concomitant beta 2 -agonists. ( 7.3 ) • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants: Use with extreme caution. May potentiate effect of formoterol fumarate on cardiovascular system. ( 7.4 ) • Beta-blockers: Use with caution and only when medically necessary.
Warnings
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Asthma-related death: Long-acting beta 2 -adrenergic agonists as monotherapy (without an inhaled corticosteroid) for asthma increase the risk of serious asthma-related events. ( 5.1 ) • Do not initiate in acutely deteriorating COPD or to treat acute symptoms. ( 5.2 ) • Do not use in combination with an additional medicine containing a LABA because of risk of overdose. ( 5.3 ) • If paradoxical bronchospasm occurs, discontinue DUAKLIR PRESSAIR and institute alternative therapy. ( 5.4 ) • Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders. ( 5.6 ) • Use with caution in patients with convulsive disorders, thyrotoxicosis, diabetes mellitus and ketoacidosis. ( 5.7 ) • Be alert to hypokalemia and hyperglycemia. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Use of a long-acting beta 2 -adrenergic agonist (LABA), including formoterol fumarate, one of the active ingredients in DUAKLIR PRESSAIR, without an inhaled corticosteroid is contraindicated in patients with asthma [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . DUAKLIR PRESSAIR is not indicated for the treatment of asthma.
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of DUAKLIR PRESSAIR or its individual components, formoterol fumarate or aclidinium bromide, in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risks. No adverse developmental effects were seen with inhalation administration of aclidinium bromide to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at 15 or 20 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human daily inhaled dose (MRHDID).
