Dynacirc CR


Generic Name: isradipine (Oral route)

is-RAD-i-peen

Commonly used brand name(s)

In the U.S.


  • Dynacirc

  • Dynacirc CR

Available Dosage Forms:


  • Tablet

  • Tablet, Extended Release

  • Capsule

Therapeutic Class: Cardiovascular Agent


Pharmacologic Class: Calcium Channel Blocker


Chemical Class: Dihydropyridine


Uses For Dynacirc CR


Isradipine is used alone or together with other medicines (such as hydrochlorothiazide) to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure adds to the workload of the heart and arteries. If it continues for a long time, the heart and arteries may not function properly. This can damage the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidneys, resulting in a stroke, heart failure, or kidney failure. High blood pressure may also increase the risk of heart attacks. These problems may be less likely to occur if blood pressure is controlled .


Isradipine is a calcium channel blocker. It works by affecting the movement of calcium into the cells of the heart and blood vessels. As a result, isradipine relaxes blood vessels and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart while reducing its workload .


This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription .


Before Using Dynacirc CR


In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For this medicine, the following should be considered:

Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.


Pediatric


Appropriate studies have not been performed on the relationship of age to the effects of isradipine in the pediatric population. Safety and efficacy have not been established .


Geriatric


Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated geriatrics-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of isradipine in the elderly. However, elderly patients are more likely to have liver or kidney problems which may require an adjustment of dose in patients receiving isradipine .


Pregnancy

DryMax Syrup



chlorpheniramine maleate, methscopolamine nitrate and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride

Dosage Form: syrup
DryMax Syrup

DryMax Syrup


Rx Only


DESCRIPTION: Each teaspoonful (5 mL) for oral administration contains:

Chlorpheniramine Maleate.................................. 4 mg

Methscopolamine Nitrate................................. 1.25 mg

Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride......................... 30 mg


Inactive ingredients: Purified Water, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Sodium Saccharin, Sucrose, Grape Flavor,

Bitter Mask, FD and C Red #40, FD and C Blue #1, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin.


DryMax Syrup contains ingredients from the following classes: antihistamine, anticholinergic, and nasal

decongestant.


Chlorpheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine with the chemical name 2-Pyridinepropanamine, γ-(4-chlorphenyl)-N,

N-dimethyl-, (Z)-2-butendioate (1:1) 2-[p-Chloro-α-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]benzyl]pyridine (1:1).


Methscopolamine Nitrate is an anticholinergic belladonna alkaloid derivative with the chemical name: 3-Oxa-9-

azoniatricyclo(3.3.1.02,4)nonane, 7-(3-hydroxy-1-oxo-2-phenylpropoxy)-9,9-dimethyl-, nitrate. [7(s)-1α, 2β-4β-5α-7β].


Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride is a nasal decongestant with the chemical name Benzenemethanol,α-[1-

(methylamino)ethyl]-, [S-(R*, R*)-, hydrochloride.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:


Chlorpheniramine maleate competitively antagonizes most of the smooth muscle stimulating actions of histamine

on the H1 receptors of the GI tract, uterus, large blood vessels, and bronchial muscle. It also antagonizes the action

of histamine that results in increased capillary permeability and the formation of edema. Chlorpheniramine maleate

is an alkylamine-type antihistamine. This group of antihistamines are among the most active histamine antagonists

and are generally effective in relatively low doses. They thereby prevent, but do not reverse, responses mediated by

histamine alone. The anticholinergic actions of most antihistamines provide a drying effect on the nasal mucosa.

These drugs are not so prone to produce drowsiness and are among the most suitable agents for daytime use, but

a significant proportion of patients do experience this effect.


Methscopolamine Nitrate is one of the principal anticholinergic/antispasmodic components of belladonna alkaloids

that exhibits antisecretory activity. Methscopolamine inhibits the muscarinic actions of acetylcholine on structures

innervated by postganglionic cholinergic nerves: smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodes,

and exocrine glands. In general, the smaller doses of anticholinergics inhibit salivary and bronchial secretions, sweating,

and accommodation; cause dilation of the pupil; and may affect the heart rate.


Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride is an oral sympathomimetic amine that acts as a decongestant to respiratory tract

mucous membranes. While its vasoconstrictor action is similar to that of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine has less pressor

effect in normotensive adults. Serum half-life for pseudoephedrine is 6 to 8 hours. Acidic urine is associated with faster

elimination of the drug. About one-half of the administered drug is excreted in the urine.

INDICATIONS:


This product provides relief of the symptoms resulting from irritation of sinus, nasal, and upper respiratory

tract tissue. Pseudoephedrine exerts a vasoconstrictive and decongestive action while chlorpheniramine

maleate decreases the symptoms of watering eyes, post-nasal drip, and sneezing. Methscopolamine nitrate

further augments the antisecretory activity of this product.

CONTRAINDICATIONS:


This product is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity or idiosyncrasy to any of its ingredients. It is

also contraindicated in women who are pregnant or nursing. This product is contraindicated in children under

six years of age, because this age group is sensitive to the effects of sympathomimetic amines.


It is also contraindicated in newborn or premature infants, because this age group has an increased susceptibility

to the anticholinergic side effects of chlorpheniramine maleate. Geriatric patients may be more sensitive to the

effects of this medication.


Risk-benefit should be considered when the following conditions exist: Acute asthma; Bladder neck obstruction;

Brain damage in children; Cardiac disease, especially cardiac arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, coronary

artery disease, and mitral stenosis; Cardiovascular disease; Diabetes mellitus; Down's Syndrome; Esophagitis,

reflux; Narrow angle glaucoma; Acute hemorrhage with unstable cardiovascular status; Hepatic function

impairment; Hernia; Hypertension; Hyperthyroidism; Intestinal atony in the elderly or debilitated patient; Chronic

lung disease; Myasthenia gravis; Autonomic neuropathy; Paralytic ileus; Prostatic hypertrophy; Psychiatric

disorders; Pyloric obstruction; Renal function impairment; Spastic paralysis, in children; Tachycardia; Toxemia

of pregnancy; Ulcerative colitis; Urinary retention, or predisposition to; Uropathy; Xerostomia.

WARNINGS:


This product may cause drowsiness or blurred vision. Patients taking this product should be warned not

to engage in activities requiring mental alertness such as operating a motor vehicle or other machinery or

to perform hazardous tasks while taking this drug.


Sympathomimetic amines should be used with caution in patients with hypertension, ischemic heart disease,

diabetes mellitus, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthyroidism, or prostatic hypertrophy. The overdosage

of sympathomimetic amines may produce CNS stimulation with convulsions or cardiovascular collapse with

accompanying hypotension. Do not exceed recommended dosage.


Heat prostration can occur with the use of methscopolamine when the environmental temperature is high.

Diarrhea may be an early symptom of incomplete intestinal obstruction, especially in patients with ileostomy

or colostomy; in this instance, use of methscopolamine would be inappropriate and possibly harmful.

PRECAUTIONS: General:


Use Pseudoephedrine with caution in patients with hypoxia, acidosis, or a history of arteriosclerosis,

bradycardia, partial heart block, hypertension, myocardial disease, thrombosis, or ventricular tachycardia.

Antihistamines have an atropine-like action and should be used with caution in patients with a history of

bronchial asthma, emphysema, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthyroidism, cardiovascular disease and

hypertension.


Use methscopolamine with caution in patients with hiatal hernia associated with reflux Esophagitis. Use

extreme caution and only when needed in patients with autonomic neuropathy, hyperthyroidism, coronary

heart disease, congestive heart failure, and cardiac arrhythmia.

Information for Patients:


Patient consultation should include the following information regarding proper use of this medication:
  • Do not take more medication than the amount recommended.

  • This medication should be used with caution during exercise or hot weather, overheating may result in heat stroke.

  • Do not drive or operate machinery if drowsiness or dizziness occurs.

  • Do not ingest alcoholic beverages, monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, or CNS depression-producing medications (hypnotics, sedatives, tranquilizers) while taking this medication.

  • This medication possibly increases sensitivity of eyes to light.

  • Methscopolamine nitrate may cause blurred vision.

  • If a dose is missed, the medication should be taken as soon as possible unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double doses.

  • This medication should be stored in a tight, light-resistant container at temperatures between 15o-30oC (59o-86oF).

  • Keep all medications out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, seek professional assistance or contact a poison control center immediately. Caution patients about the signs of potential side effects, especially:

  • Anticholinergic effects - clumsiness or unsteadiness; severe drowsiness; severe dryness of mouth, nose, or throat; flushing or redness of face; shortness of breath or trouble breathing.

  • Blood dyscrasias-sore throat and fever; unusual bleeding or bruising; unusual tiredness or weakness.

  • Fast or irregular heartbeat.

  • Psychotic episodes.

  • Tightness in chest.


Note: When anticholinergics are given to patients, especially children, where the environmental temperature is high

there is a risk of a rapid increase in body temperature because of suppression of sweat gland activity. Infants, patients

with Down's syndrome, and children with spastic paralysis or brain damage may show an increased response to

anticholinergics, thus increasing the potential for side effects.


Geriatric or debilitated patients may respond to usual doses of anticholinergics with excitement, agitation, drowsiness,

or confusion.

Laboratory Tests:


The following may be especially important in patient monitoring (other tests may be warranted in some patients,

depending on conditions): Blood pressure determination - recommended at frequent intervals during therapy:

Electrocardiogram (ECG) - monitoring may be required: Intraocular pressure determination - recommended at

periodic intervals, as these medications may increase the intraocular pressure.

Drug Interactions:


Do not take this product if you are presently taking, or have taken within the preceding two weeks, a prescription

drug for high blood pressure or depression without first consulting your physician. Absorption of other oral

medications may be decreased during concurrent use with anticholinergics due to decreased gastrointestinal

motility and delayed gastric emptying.

Combinations containing any or the following medications, depending on the amount present, may also interact

with this product:
  • Alkalizers, such as: calcium and/or magnesium-containing antacids; Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors; citrates; sodium bicarbonate-urinary excretion of anticholinergics may be delayed by alkalization of the urine, thus potentiating methscopolamine's therapeutic and/or side effects.

  • α-adrenergic blocking agents or other medications with α-adrenergic blocking action - prior to administration of α-adrenergics may block the pressor response to pseudoephedrine, possibly resulting in severe hypotension; medications with α-adrenergic blocking action may decrease the pressor effect and shorten the duration of action of pseudoephedrine.

  • Antacids or absorbent antidiarrheals-simultaneous use of these medications may reduce absorption of methscopolamine, resulting in decreased therapeutic effectiveness; doses of these medications should be spaced 2 or 3 hours apart from doses of methscopolamine.

  • Anesthetics, hydrocarbon inhalation - Concurrent use of chloroform, cyclopropane, halothane, or trichloroethylene with pseudoephedrine may increase the risk of severe ventricular arrhythmias because these anesthetics greatly sensitize the myocardium to the effects of sympathomimetic amines; pseudoephedrine should be used with caution and in substantially reduced dosage in patients receiving these anesthetics. Enflurane, isoflurane, or methoxyflurane may also cause some sensitization of the myocardium to the effects of sympathomimetic amines.

  • Anesthetics, parenteral-local - Pseudoephedrine should be used cautiously and in carefully circumscribed quantities, if at all, with local anesthetics for anesthetizing areas with end arteries (such as the finger, toes, or penis) or otherwise compromised blood supply; ischemia leading to gangrene may result.

  • Anticholinergics - Concurrent use with anticholinergic effects; patients should be advised to report occurrence of gastrointestinal problems promptly since paralytic ileus may occur with concurrent therapy.

  • Antidepressants, trycyclic or maprotiline - Concurrent use may potentiate the cardiovascular effects of pseudoephedrine, possible resulting in arrhythmias, tachycardia, or severe hypertension or hyperpyrexia.

  • Antihypertensives, or diuretics used as - Antihypertensive effects may be reduced when these medications are used concurrently with pseudoephedrine; the patient should be carefully monitored to confirm that the desired effect is being obtained.

  • β-adrenergic blocking agents - Therapeutic effects may be inhibited when these medications are used concurrently with pseudoephedrine, especially larger doses; also, β-adrenergic blockage may result in unopposed α-adrenergic activity with a risk of hypertension and excessive bradycardia with possible heart chlorpheniramine, resulting in headache, cardiac arrhythmias, vomiting or sudden and severe hypertensive and/or hyperpyretic crisis. These medications should not be administered during or within 14 days following the administration of MAO inhibitor therapy.  

  • Metoclopramide - Concurrent use of metoclopramide with anticholinergics may antagonize metoclopramide's effects on gastrointestinal motility.

  • Potassium chloride - Concurrent use with anticholinergics may increase the severity of potassium chloride-induced gastrointestinal lesions.

  • Rauwolfia alkaloids - Concurrent use may prolong the direct-acting sympathomimetic amines by preventing the uptake into storage granules.


Laboratory Test Interactions:


Antihistamines may interfere with diagnostic test results for skin tests using allergen extracts.

Anticholinergics may interfere with diagnostic test results for gastric acid secretion by antagonizing the

effect of pantagastrin and histamine, and for radionucleotide gastric emptying studies by delaying gastric

emptying.

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility:


No data is available on the long-term potential of the components of this product for Carcinogenesis,

Mutagenesis or Impairment of Fertility in animals or humans.

Pregnancy: Category C:


Reproduction studies have been performed with chlorpheniramine maleate. Studies in rabbits and rats at doses

up to 50 times and 85 times the human dose revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus. There are, however, no

adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Therefore, it is not known whether these drugs can

cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity.


Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with pseudoephedrine or methscopolamine. This product

should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

Labor and Delivery:


Use of pseudoephedrine during labor may cause fetal anoxia and bradycardia by increasing contractility of the

uterus and decreasing uterine blood flow.

Nursing Mothers:


Small amounts of sympathomimetic amines and antihistamines are excreted in breast milk; use is not

recommended because of the risk of adverse effects, such as unusual excitement or irritability in infants.

Anticholinergics and antihistamines may inhibit lactation.

Pediatric Use:


Use of antihistamines is not recommended in newborn or premature infants because this age group has

an increased susceptibility to anticholinergic side effects, such as CNS excitation, and an increased

tendency toward convulsion. In infants and children, overdosage may cause hallucinations, convulsions,

and death. A paradoxical reaction characterized by hyperexcitability may occur in older children taking

antihistamines.


Use is not recommended for children under six years of age. Infants and young children with spastic

paralysis or brain damage since an increased response to anticholinergics are given to children where the

environmental temperature because of the suppression of sweat gland activity. A paradoxical reaction

characterized by hyperexcitability may occur in children taking large doses of anticholinergics.


Appropriate studies with pseudoephedrine have not been performed in the pediatric population.

Geriatric Use:


Confusion, hallucinations, seizures, and CNS depression may be more likely to occur in geriatric patients

taking sympathomimetic amines. Geriatric patients may also be more sensitive to the effects, especially

the vasopressor effects, of sympathomimetic amines. Confusion, dizziness, sedation, hypotension,

hyperexcitability, and anticholinergic side effects, such as dryness of mouth and urinary retention

(especially in males), may be more likely to occur in geriatric patients taking antihistamines.


Geriatric patients may respond to usual doses of anticholinergics with excitement, agitation, drowsiness,

or confusion. Geriatric patients are especially susceptible to the anticholinergic side effects, such as

constipation, dryness of the mouth, and urinary retention (especially in males). If these side effects occur

and continue or are severe, medication should probably be discontinued.


Caution is also recommended when anticholinergics are given to geriatric patients, because of the danger

of precipitating undiagnosed glaucoma. Memory may become severely impaired in geriatric patients, with

the continued use of anticholinergics, since these drugs block the action of acetylcholine, which is

responsible for many functions of the brain, including memory function.

ADVERSE REACTIONS:


The following adverse reactions have been observed with the use of pseudoephedrine, chlorpheniramine

and methscopolamine; Arrhythmias, blood dyscrasias, CNS depression, CNS stimulation, dizziness,

drowsiness, dryness of mouth, hallucinations, hypotension, hypertension, increased sweating, loss of

appetite, paradoxical reaction, restlessness, skin rash, stomach upset or pain, thickening of mucus,

tingling in hands or feet, trembling, troubled breathing, unusual tiredness or weakness, vomiting.


Note: Agitation; confusion; difficult or painful urination; drowsiness; dizziness; and dryness of mouth, nose

and throat are more likely to occur in the elderly. Nightmares, unusual excitement, nervousness, restlessness,

or irritability are more likely to occur in children and the elderly. When anticholinergics are given to patients,

especially children, where the environmental temperature is high, there is risk of a rapid increase in body

temperature.

Drug Abuse and Dependence


Central nervous system stimulants such as pseudoephedrine have been abused. At high doses, subjects

commonly experience an elevation of mood, a sense of increased energy and alertness, and decreased

appetite. Some individuals become anxious, irritable and loquacious. In addition to the marked euphoria, the

user experiences a sense of markedly enhanced physical strength and mental capacity. With continued use,

tolerance develops, the user increases the dose, and toxic signs and symptoms appear. Depression may

follow rapid withdrawal.

Stimulants, such as pseudoephedrine, are banned and tested for by the U.S. Olympic Committee (USOC) and

the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).

Overdosage


This product is comprised of pharmacologically different components (sympathomimetic amine, antihistamine,

anticholinergic). Therefore, it is difficult to predict the exact manifestation of symptoms in a given individual.

Reaction to an overdose of this product may vary from CNS depression to stimulant. A description of symptoms

which are likely to appear after ingestion of an excess of the individual components follows:
  • Overdosage with sympathomimetic amines can cause cardiac arrhythmias, cerebral hemorrhage and pulmonary edema. It can also cause palpitations, tremor, dizziness, vomiting, fear, labored breathing, headache, dryness of mouth, pallor, weakness, panic, anxiety, confusion, and hallucinations.

  • Manifestation of antihistamine overdosage may vary from CNS depression to stimulation. Other signs and symptoms may be dizziness, tinnitus, ataxia, blurred vision, and hypotension. Stimulation is particularly likely in children as are atropine-like signs and symptoms (dry mouth, fixed, dilated pupils, flushing, hypothermia, and gastrointestinal symptoms). In infants and children particularly, antihistamines, in overdosage may produce convulsion and/or death.

  • The signs and symptoms of overdosage of anticholinergics are headache, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, fixed and dilated pupils, hot dry skin, dizziness, dryness of mouth, difficulty in swallowing and CNS stimulation.


Treatment of acute overdosage would probably be based upon treating the patient for pseudoephedrine toxicity

which may manifest itself as excessive CNS stimulation resulting in excitement, tremor, restlessness, and

insomnia. Other effects may inculde hyperpyrexia, hypertension, mydriasis, hyperglycemia and urinary retention.

Severe hyperkalemia can occur, probably due to a compartmental shift. No organ damage or significant metabolic

derangement is associated with overdosage.


General Treatment: Treatment is symptomatic and supportive with possible utilization of the following:
  • Induction of emesis (syrup of Ipecac recommended); however, precaution against aspiration is necessary, especially in infants and children.

  • Gastric lavage (isotonic or 0.45% sodium chloride solution) if patient is unable to vomit within three hours of ingestion.

  • Saline Cathartics (milk of magnesia) may be used.

  • Vasopressors to treat hypotension; however epinephrine should not be used since it may further lower blood pressure.

  • For excessive hypertensive effect an α-adrenergic blocker, such as phentolamine, may be administered.

  • Hyperpyrexia, especially in children, may require treatment with tepid water sponge bath.

  • Excessive CNS stimulation may be counteracted with parenteral diazepam.

  • Oxygen and intravenous fluids.

  • Precaution against the use of stimulants (analeptic agents) is recommended because they may cause seizures.

  • Excitement to a degree which demands attention may be managed with sodium thiopental 2% solution given slowly intravenously or chloral hydrate (100-200 mL of a 2% solution) by rectal infusion.



In severe cases of overdosage it is essential to monitor both the heart (by electrocardiograph) and plasma electrolytes,

and to give intravenous potassium as indicated. In the event of progression of the respiration should be instituted and

maintained until effective respiratory action returns.
