6 ADVERSE REACTIONS Most common adverse reactions (≥2%) are diarrhea, abdominal distension, flatulence and dizziness. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Ardelyx at 1-844-427-7352 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 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 with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety data described below reflect data from 1203 adult patients with IBS-C in two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials (Trial 1 and Trial 2).

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Tenapanor is minimally absorbed systemically, with plasma concentrations below the limit of quantification (less than 0.5 ng/mL) following oral administration [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Therefore, maternal use is not expected to result in fetal exposure to the drug. The available data on IBSRELA exposure from a small number of pregnant women have not identified any drug associated risk for major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes.

WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS DEHYDRATION IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS IBSRELA is contraindicated in patients less than 6 years of age; in nonclinical studies in young juvenile rats administration of tenapanor caused deaths presumed to be due to dehydration [see Contraindications (4) , Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ]. Avoid use of IBSRELA in patients 6 years to less than 12 years of age [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) , Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ]. 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Diarrhea: Patients may experience severe diarrhea. If severe diarrhea occurs, suspend dosing and rehydrate patient. ( 5.2 ) 5.1 Risk of Serious Dehydration in Pediatric Patients IBSRELA is contraindicated in patients below 6 years of age. The safety and effectiveness of IBSRELA in patients less than 18 years of age have not been established. In young juvenile rats (less than 1 week old; approximate human age equivalent of less than 2 years of age), decreased body weight and deaths occurred, presumed to be due to dehydration, following oral administration of tenapanor. There are no data available in older juvenile rats (human age equivalent 2 years to less than 12 years). Avoid the use of IBSRELA in patients 6 years to less than 12 years of age. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS IBSRELA is contraindicated in: Patients less than 6 years of age due to the risk of serious dehydration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) , Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ]. Patients with known or suspected mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction . Pediatric patients less than 6 years of age.
