The following major changes have been made. Other changes are administrative/formatting changes.

In section 4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use, the following text has been added:

Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs)

Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) including erythema multiforme, Stevens‑Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) which can be life‑threatening or fatal, have been reported in association with pantoprazole with frequency not known (see section 4.8).

At the time of prescription, patients should be advised of the signs and symptoms and monitored closely for skin reactions.

If signs and symptoms suggestive of these reactions appear, pantoprazole should be withdrawn immediately and an alternative treatment considered.


In section 4.5, Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction, the following text has been added:

Drug-laboratory test interactions

There have been reports of false-positive results in some urine screening tests for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in patients receiving pantoprazole. An alternative confirmatory method should be considered to verify positive results.

Section

Change

4.2 Posology and method of administration

Added:

Title: Special populations

Elderly

No dose adjustment is necessary in the elderly (see section 5.2).

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use

Added:

Severe hypomagnesaemia has been rarely reported in patients treated with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like pantoprazole for at least three months, and in most cases for a year. Serious manifestations of hypomagnesaemia such as fatigue, tetany, delirium, convulsions, dizziness, and ventricular arrhythmia can occur but they may begin insidiously and be overlooked. Hypomagnesaemia may lead to hypocalcaemia and/or hypokalaemia (see section 4.8). In most affected patients, hypomagnesaemia (and hypomagnesaemia associated hypocalcaemia and/or hypokalaemia) improved after magnesium replacement and discontinuation of the PPI.

Protium contains sodium

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per tablet, that is to say essentially ‘sodium‑free’.

4.8 Undesirable effects

Added

Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)

6.5 Nature and contents of container

Added:

50 (50x1)             gastro-resistant tablets

500 gastro-resistance tablets

*Please note these new pack sizes will not currently be marketed in Ireland.

Section 4.8 (undesirable effects) addition of Microscopic colitis.

Section 5.3 (Preclinical safety data) addition of the following:

In a peri-postnatal rat reproduction study designed to assess bone development, signs of offspring toxicity (mortality, lower mean body weight, lower mean body weight gain and reduced bone growth) were observed at exposures (Cmax) approximately 2x the human clinical exposure. By the end of the recovery phase, bone parameters were similar across groups and body weights were also trending toward reversibility after a drug-free recovery period. The increased mortality has only been reported in pre-weaning rat pups (up to 21 days age) which is estimated to correspond to infants up to the age of 2 years old. The relevance of this finding to the paediatric population is unclear. A previous peri-postnatal study in rats at slightly lower doses found no adverse effects at 3 mg/kg compared with a low dose of 5 mg/kg in this study.

Section 4.4 following text deleted:
Pantoprazole, like all proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), might be expected to increase the counts of bacteria normally present in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Treatment with {Tradename} may lead to a slightly increased risk of gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter.

Section 4.4 following text added:
Interference with Laboratory Tests
Increased Chromogranin A (CgA) level may interfere with investigations for neuroendocrine tumours. To avoid this interference, Protium treatment should be stopped for at least 5 days before CgA measurements (see section 5.1). If CgA and gastrin levels have not returned to reference range after initial measurement, measurements should be repeated 14 days after cessation of proton pump inhibitor treatment.

Section 5.1 following text added:
During treatment with antisecretory medicinal products, serum gastrin increases in response to the decreased acid secretion. Also CgA increases due to decreased gastric acidity. The increased CgA level may interfere with investigations for neuroendocrine tumours. Available published evidence suggests that proton pump inhibitors should be discontinued between 5 days and 2 weeks prior to CgA measurements. This is to allow CgA levels that might be spuriously elevated following PPI treatment to return to reference range.

The updated Protium SmPCs contain updated information in the following sections:

4.2       Posology and method of administration

 

Addition of heading:

 

Oral use

The tablets should not be chewed or crushed, and should be swallowed whole 1 hour before a meal with some water.

 

4.4       Special warnings and precautions for use

 

The following section previously entitled ‘In presence of alarm symptoms’ has been updated to:

 

Gastric malignancy

Symptomatic response to pantoprazole may mask the symptoms of gastric malignancy and may delay diagnosis. In the presence of any alarm symptom (e.g. significant unintentional weight loss, recurrent vomiting, dysphagia, haematemesis, anaemia or melaena) and when gastric ulcer is suspected or present, malignancy should be excluded.

 

Gastric malignancy

Symptomatic response to pantoprazole may mask the symptoms of gastric malignancy and may delay diagnosis. In the presence of any alarm symptom (e. g. significant unintentional weight loss, recurrent vomiting, dysphagia, haematemesis, anaemia or melaena) and when gastric ulcer is suspected or present, malignancy should be excluded.

 

4.4       Special warnings and precautions for use

 

The following section previously entitled ‘Co-administration with atazanavir’ had been updated to:

 

Co-administration with HIV protease inhibitors

Co-administration of pantoprazole is not recommended with HIV protease inhibitors for which absorption is dependent on acidic intragastric pH such as atazanavir, due to significant reduction in their bioavailability (see section 4.5).

 

Co-administration with HIV protease inhibitors

Co-administration of pantoprazole is not recommended with HIV protease inhibitors for which absorption is dependent on acidic intragastric pH such as atazanavir, due to significant reduction in their bioavailability (see section 4.5).

 

 

4.4       Special warnings and precautions for use

 

The following section has been updated to:

 

Gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria

Treatment with Protium may lead to a slightly increased risk of gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter or C. difficile.

 

Pantoprazole, like all proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), might be expected to increase the counts of bacteria normally present in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Treatment with Protium may lead to a slightly increased risk of gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter.

 

 

4.4       Special warnings and precautions for use

 

The following new section has been added:

 

Sub-acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE)

Proton pump inhibitors are associated with very infrequent cases of SCLE. If lesions occur, especially in sun exposed areas of the skin, and if accompanied by arthralgia, the patient should seek medical help promptly and the healthcare professional should consider stopping Protium. SCLE after previous treatment with a proton pump inhibitor may increase the risk of SCLE with other proton pump inhibitors.

 

4.5       Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

 

The following section has been updated, including updated subheadings as follows:

 

Medicinal products with pH-Dependent Absorption Pharmacokinetics

Because of profound and long lasting inhibition of gastric acid secretion, pantoprazole may interfere with the absorption of other medicinal products where gastric pH is an important determinant of oral availability, e.g. some azole antifungals such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole and other medicines such as erlotinib.

 

HIV protease inhibitors)

Co-administration of pantoprazole is not recommended with HIV protease inhibitors for which absorption is dependent on acidic intragastric pH such as atazanavir due to significant reduction in their bioavailability (see section 4.4).

 

If the combination of HIV protease inhibitors with a proton pump inhibitor is judged unavoidable, close clinical monitoring (e.g. virus load) is recommended. A pantoprazole dose of 20 mg per day should not be exceeded. Dosage of the HIV protease inhibitor may need to be adjusted

 

Coumarin anticoagulants (phenprocoumon or warfarin)

Co-administration of pantoprazole with warfarin or phenprocoumon did not affect the pharmacokinetics of warfarin, phenprocoumon or INR. However, there have been reports of increased INR and prothrombin time in patients receiving PPIs and warfarin or phenprocoumon concomitantly. Increases in INR and prothrombin time may lead to abnormal bleeding, and even death. Patients treated with pantoprazole and warfarin or phenprocoumon may need to be monitored for increase in INR and prothrombin time.

 

4.5       Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

 

The following sentence has been added:

 

An interaction of pantoprazole with other medicinal products or compounds, which are metabolized using the same enzyme system, cannot be excluded.

 

4.5       Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

 

The following section has been added:

 

Medicinal products that inhibit or induce CYP2C19:

 

Inhibitors of CYP2C19 such as fluvoxamine could increase the systemic exposure of pantoprazole. A dose reduction may be considered for patients treated long-term with high doses of pantoprazole, or those with hepatic impairment.

 

Enzyme inducers affecting CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 such as rifampicin and St John´s wort (Hypericum perforatum) may reduce the plasma concentrations of PPIs that are metabolized through these enzyme systems.

 

4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation

The following sections have been updated:

 

Pregnancy

A moderate amount of data on pregnant women (between 300-1000 pregnancy outcomes) indicate no malformative or feto/ neonatal toxicity of Protium.

Animal studies have shown reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3).

As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Protium during pregnancy.

 

Breast-feeding

Animal studies have shown excretion of pantoprazole in breast milk. There is insufficient information on the excretion of pantoprazole in human milk but excretion into human milk has been reported. A risk to the newborns/infants cannot be excluded. Therefore, a decision on whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from Protium therapy should take into account the benefit of breast-feeding for the child, and the benefit of Protium therapy for the woman.

 

Fertility

There was no evidence of impaired fertility following the administration of pantoprazole in animal studies (see section 5.3).

 

4.7. Effects on ability to drive and use machines

The following information has been added:

 

Pantoprazole has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

 

4.8 Undesirable effects

The following adverse reaction has been added to Table 1 under skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders:

 

Sub-acute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (see section 4.4)
