Warnings

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis : Increased incidence of cerebrovascular adverse reactions (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack, including fatalities). ( 5.2 ) Precipitation of Opioid Withdrawal in Patients Who are Dependent on Opioids : LYBALVI can precipitate opioid withdrawal in patients who are dependent on opioids. Prior to initiating LYBALVI, there should be at least a 7-day opioid-free interval from the last use of short-acting opioids, and at least a 14-day opioid-free interval from the last use of long-acting opioids to avoid precipitation of opioid withdrawal. ( 2.1 , 5.3 ) Vulnerability to Life-Threatening Opioid Overdose : Risk of Opioid Overdose from Attempts to Overcome LYBALVI Opioid Blockade: Attempts to overcome LYBALVI opioid blockade with high or repeated doses of opioids may lead to fatal opioid intoxication, particularly if LYBALVI therapy is interrupted or discontinued. ( 5.4 ) Risk of Resuming Opioids in Patients with Prior Opioid Use : Patients with a history of chronic opioid use prior to LYBALVI treatment may have decreased opioid tolerance if LYBALVI therapy is interrupted or discontinued. ( 5.4 ) Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome : Manage with immediate discontinuation and close monitoring. ( 5.5 ) Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) : Discontinue if DRESS is suspected. ( 5.6 ) Metabolic Changes : Monitor for hyperglycemia/diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and weight gain. ( 5.7 ) Tardive Dyskinesia : Discontinue if clinically appropriate. ( 5.8 ) Orthostatic Hypotension and Syncope : Monitor heart rate and blood pressure and warn patients with known cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, and risk of dehydration or syncope. ( 5.9 ) Leukopenia, Neutropenia, and Agranulocytosis : Perform complete blood counts in patients with a history of a clinically significant low white blood cell (WBC) count. Consider discontinuation if clinically significant decline in WBC in the absence of other causative factors. ( 5.11 ) Seizures : Use cautiously in patients with a history of seizures or with conditions that lower the seizure threshold. ( 5.13 ) Potential for Cognitive and Motor Impairment : Use caution when operating machinery. ( 5.14 ) Anticholinergic (Antimuscarinic) Effects: Use with caution with other anticholinergic drugs and in patients with urinary retention, prostatic hypertrophy, constipation, paralytic ileus or related conditions. ( 5.16 ) Hyperprolactinemia : May elevate prolactin levels. ( 5.17 ) 5.1 Increased Mortality in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. In placebo-controlled clinical trials of elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis, the incidence of death in olanzapine-treated patients was significantly greater than in placebo-treated patients (3.5% vs 1.5%, respectively). Analyses of 17 placebo-controlled trials (modal duration of 10 weeks), largely in patients taking atypical antipsychotic drugs, revealed a risk of death in the drug-treated patients of between 1.6 to 1.7 times that seen in placebo-treated patients. Over the course of a typical 10-week controlled trial, the rate of death in drug-treated patients was about 4.5%, compared to a rate of about 2.6% in the placebo group. Although the causes of death were varied, most of the deaths appeared to be either cardiovascular (e.g., heart failure, sudden death) or infectious (e.g., pneumonia) in nature. LYBALVI is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )]. 5.2 Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions, Including Stroke in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis Cerebrovascular adverse reactions (e.g., stroke, transient ischemic attack), including fatalities, were reported in patients in trials of olanzapine in elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis. In placebo-controlled trials, there was a significantly higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse reactions in patients treated with olanzapine compared to patients treated with placebo. LYBALVI is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . 5.3 Precipitation of Severe Opioid Withdrawal in Patients Who Are Physiologically Dependent on Opioids Samidorphan, an opioid antagonist that is a component of LYBALVI, can precipitate opioid withdrawal in patients who are dependent on opioids, which can lead to an opioid withdrawal syndrome, sometimes requiring hospitalization. Therefore, LYBALVI is contraindicated in patients who are using opioids or undergoing acute opioid withdrawal. Prior to initiating LYBALVI, there should be at least a 7-day opioid-free interval from last use of short-acting opioids, and at least a 14-day opioid-free interval from the last use of long-acting opioids. Explain the risks associated with precipitated withdrawal and the importance of giving an accurate account of last opioid use to patients and caregivers [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Drug Interactions ( 7.3 )] . 5.4 Vulnerability to Life-Threatening Opioid Overdose Risk of Opioid Overdose from Attempts to Overcome Samidorphan Blockade LYBALVI contains samidorphan, an opioid antagonist. Attempting to overcome LYBALVI's opioid blockade with high or repeated doses of exogenous opioids (e.g., because of ineffective analgesia or opioid withdrawal symptoms) could lead to life-threatening or fatal opioid intoxication (e.g., respiratory arrest, circulatory collapse), particularly if LYBALVI therapy is interrupted or discontinued, subjecting the patient to high levels of unopposed opioid agonist as the samidorphan blockade wanes. Inform patients of the potential consequences of trying to overcome the opioid blockade and the serious risks of taking opioids concurrently with LYBALVI or while transitioning off LYBALVI. In emergency situations, if a LYBALVI-treated patient requires opioid treatment as part of anesthesia or analgesia: Discontinue LYBALVI, Opioids should be administered by individual(s) trained in the use of anesthetic drugs and the management of the respiratory effects of opioids, specifically the establishment and maintenance of a patent airway and assisted ventilation, and Appropriately trained personnel should continuously monitor the patient in a setting equipped and staffed for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. For recommendations on starting opioids in LYBALVI-treated patients in non-emergent situations, see Drug Interactions ( 7.3 ). Risk of Resuming Opioids in Patients with Prior Opioid Use Patients with a history of chronic opioid use prior to treatment with LYBALVI may have decreased opioid tolerance if LYBALVI therapy is interrupted or discontinued. Advise patients that this decreased tolerance may increase the risk of opioid overdose if opioids are resumed at the previously tolerated dosage. 5.5 Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), a potentially fatal symptom complex, has been reported in association with administration of antipsychotic drugs. Clinical manifestations of NMS are hyperpyrexia, muscle rigidity, delirium, and autonomic instability. Additional signs may include elevated creatine phosphokinase, myoglobinuria (rhabdomyolysis), and acute renal failure. If NMS is suspected, immediately discontinue LYBALVI and provide intensive symptomatic treatment and monitoring. 5.6 Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) has been reported with exposure to olanzapine, a component of LYBALVI [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.2 )] . DRESS may present with a cutaneous reaction (such as rash or exfoliative dermatitis), eosinophilia, fever, and/or lymphadenopathy with systemic complications such as hepatitis, nephritis, pneumonitis, my

Drug interactions

DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A4 Inducers : Not recommended. ( 7.1 ) Strong CYP1A2 Inhibitors : Consider dosage reduction of olanzapine component of LYBALVI. ( 7.1 ) CYP1A2 Inducer : Consider dosage increase of the olanzapine component of LYBALVI. ( 7.1 ) CNS Acting Drugs : May potentiate orthostatic hypotension. ( 7.1 ) Anticholinergic Drugs: Can increase risk for severe gastrointestinal adverse reactions. ( 7.1 ) Antihypertensive Agents : Monitor blood pressure. ( 7.2 ) Levodopa and Dopamine Agonists : Not recommended. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on LYBALVI Table 4 describes clinically significant drug interactions where the concomitant use of other drugs affects LYBALVI. Table 4: Effects of Other Drugs on LYBALVI Strong CYP3A4 Inducer Clinical Implication: Coadministration of LYBALVI with a strong CYP3A4 inducer decreases AUC inf of olanzapine and samidorphan [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )], which may reduce LYBALVI efficacy. Prevention or Management: Concomitant use of LYBALVI with strong CYP3A4 inducers is not recommended. Strong CYP1A2 Inhibitor Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of LYBALVI with a strong CYP1A2 inhibitor increases olanzapine AUC and C max [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may increase the risk of LYBALVI adverse reactions. Prevention or Management: Consider reducing the dosage of the olanzapine component in LYBALVI when used concomitantly with strong CYP1A2 inhibitors. CYP1A2 Inducer Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of LYBALVI with CYP1A2 inducers decreases olanzapine exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may reduce LYBALVI efficacy. Prevention or Management: Consider increasing the dosage of the olanzapine component in LYBALVI when used concomitantly with CYP1A2 inducers. Diazepam, Alcohol, and Other CNS Acting Drugs Clinical Implication: Concomitant use of diazepam, alcohol, or other CNS acting drugs with LYBALVI may potentiate the orthostatic hypotension observed with olanzapine [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.9 )] . Prevention or Management: LYBALVI should be used with caution in patients receiving concomitantly diazepam or other CNS acting drugs, or using alcohol. Anticholinergic Drugs Clinical Implication: Concomitant treatment with olanzapine and other drugs with anticholinergic activity can increase the risk for severe gastrointestinal adverse reactions related to hypomotility. Prevention or Management: LYBALVI should be used with caution in patients receiving medications having anticholinergic (antimuscarinic) effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.16 )] . 7.2 Effects of LYBALVI on Other Drugs Table 5 describes clinically significant drug interactions where concomitant use of LYBALVI affects other drugs. Table 5: Effects of LYBALVI on Other Drugs Antihypertensive Agents Clinical Implication: LYBALVI may enhance the effects of certain antihypertensive agents. Prevention or Management: Monitor blood pressure and reduce dosage of antihypertensive drug in accordance with its approved product labeling. Levodopa and Dopamine Agonists Clinical Implication: LYBALVI may antagonize the effects of levodopa and dopamine agonists. Prevention or Management: Concomitant use of LYBALVI is not recommended with levodopa and dopamine agonists. 7.3 Opioids LYBALVI is contraindicated in patients who are using opioids or undergoing acute opioid withdrawal [see Contraindications ( 4 )]. LYBALVI increases the risk of precipitating acute opioid withdrawal in patients who are dependent on opioids. Prior to initiating LYBALVI, there should be at least a 7-day opioid-free interval from the last use of short-acting opioids, and at least a 14-day opioid-free interval from the last use of long-acting opioids [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] . In emergency situations, if a LYBALVI-treated patient requires opioid treatment for anesthesia or analgesia, discontinue LYBALVI. The opioid should be administered by properly trained individual(s), and the patient should be properly monitored in a setting equipped and staffed for cardiopulmonary resuscitation [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )]. In non-emergency situations, if a LYBALVI-treated patient is expected to require opioid treatment (e.g., for analgesia during or after an elective surgical procedure) discontinue LYBALVI at least 5 days before opioid treatment and start olanzapine or another antipsychotic, if needed. Given that LYBALVI contains samidorphan, an opioid antagonist, opioid treatment may be less effective or ineffective shortly after LYBALVI discontinuation because of the presence of samidorphan. 7.4 Interference with Laboratory Tests Interference with Laboratory Tests for Opioid Detection Because LYBALVI contains samidorphan, an opioid antagonist, LYBALVI may be cross-reactive with urinary immunoassay methods used for detecting opioids, resulting in false positive results. Use an alternative analytical technique (e.g., chromatographic methods) to confirm positive opioid urine drug screen results [see Contraindications ( 4 ) and Warnings and Precautions ( 5.19 )] .

Adverse Reactions in Patients with Schizophrenia Patient Exposure The safety of LYBALVI was evaluated in 1262 patients (18 to 67 years of age) diagnosed with schizophrenia in four double-blind, controlled studies and three long-term safety extension studies of up to 3 years of duration. This experience corresponds to approximately 910 person-years. In these studies, there were a total of 663 patients exposed to LYBALVI for at least 6 months, and 386 patients for at least one year. Adverse Reactions in the Short-Term (4 week) Placebo-Controlled Trial in Adults with Schizophrenia The most common adverse reactions (incidence of at least 5% of patients exposed to LYBALVI and greater than twice the rate of placebo) are weight increased, somnolence, dry mouth, and headache. Adverse reactions associated with the use of LYBALVI (incidence of 2% or greater and greater than in placebo-treated patients) are shown in Table 2 . Table 2: Adverse Reactions Reported in ≥2% of LYBALVI-Treated Patients and Greater than Placebo in a 4-Week Schizophrenia Trial Adverse Reaction Placebo (N=134) % LYBALVI (10 mg/10 mg, 20 mg/10 mg) (N=134) % Weight increased 3 19 Somnolence 2 9 Dry mouth 1 7 Headache 3 6 Blood insulin increased 1 3 Sedation 0 2 Dizziness 1 2 Neutrophil count decreased 0 2 Adverse reactions that led to discontinuation in LYBALVI-treated patients in the short-term placebo-controlled trial in adults with schizophrenia include schizophrenia (1%) and abnormal liver function tests (1%). Adverse Reactions in the Long-Term (24-week), Active-Controlled Trial in Adults with Schizophrenia In the 24-week, olanzapine-controlled trial in patients with stable schizophrenia, adverse reactions associated with the use of LYBALVI (incidence of 2% or greater) include: weight increased (25%), somnolence (21%), dry mouth (13%), increased appetite (11%), waist circumference increased (6%), blood creatine phosphokinase increased (5%), headache (4%), lethargy (4%), sedation (4%), akathisia (3%), alanine aminotransferase increased (3%), aspartate aminotransferase increased (3%), constipation (3%), dizziness (3%), fatigue (3%), nausea (3%), blood pressure increased (3%), neutrophil count decreased (3%), blood insulin increased (2%), weight decreased (2%), and dyslipidemia (2%). Adverse reactions that led to LYBALVI treatment discontinuation in more than one patient include somnolence (2%), weight increased (2%), neutropenia (2%), glycosylated hemoglobin increased (1%), schizophrenia (1%), and liver function test abnormal (1%). Hyperglycemia Mean increases in blood glucose have been observed in patients treated (median exposure of 9.2 months) with olanzapine in phase 1 of the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE). The mean increase of serum glucose (fasting and nonfasting samples) from baseline to the average of the 2 highest serum concentrations was 15.0 mg/dL. Hyperglycemia, as defined by fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL, has been observed in patients treated with LYBALVI. In the 4-week placebo-controlled trial in adult patients with schizophrenia, shifts in fasting glucose from normal to high occurred in 4% of patients treated with LYBALVI, 1% of patients treated with olanzapine, and no patients treated with placebo. In the 24-week olanzapine-controlled trial, patients treated with LYBALVI were more likely to experience abnormal shifts in glycemic parameters than patients treated with olanzapine ( Table 3 ) Table 3: Changes in Glycemic Parameters in a 24-Week Trial of Patients with Schizophrenia * n: number of patients with reported abnormal shifts; N: number of patients who had assessments at both baseline and endpoint for mean change, or normal at baseline and at least 1 post-baseline assessment for shift.

In the 24-week olanzapine-controlled study, mean changes in fasting total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides were similar in patients treated with LYBALVI and in patients treated with olanzapine. Weight Gain In the 4-week placebo-controlled study in adult patients with schizophrenia, mean changes in weight, and proportion of patients with ≥7% weight increase, were greater in patients treated with LYBALVI and olanzapine than in patients on placebo. In that study, mean weight gain was 3.0 kg in patients treated with LYBALVI, 2.4 kg in patients treated with olanzapine, and 0.2 kg in patients treated with placebo. The proportion of patients with ≥7% weight increase was 26% in patients treated with LYBALVI, 20% in patients treated with olanzapine, and 5% in patients treated with placebo. In the 24-week trial, LYBALVI-treated patients gained on average 4.2% of baseline body weight. The proportion of patients treated with LYBALVI wit
