INVOKAMET XR

The pharmacokinetics of canagliflozin is similar in healthy subjects and patients with type 2 diabetes. Following single-dose oral administration of 100 mg and 300 mg of INVOKANA, peak plasma concentrations (median T max ) of canagliflozin occurs within 1 to 2 hours post-dose. Plasma C max and AUC of canagliflozin increased in a dose-proportional manner from 50 mg to 300 mg. The apparent terminal half-life (t 1/2 ) was 10.6 hours and 13.1 hours for the 100 mg and 300 mg doses, respectively. Stea...

14.1 Glycemic Control Trials in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus INVOKANA (canagliflozin) has been studied as monotherapy, in combination with metformin, sulfonylurea, metformin and sulfonylurea, metformin and sitagliptin, metformin and a thiazolidinedione (i.e., pioglitazone), and in combination with insulin (with or without other anti-hyperglycemic agents). The efficacy of INVOKANA was compared to a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor (sitagliptin), both as add-on combination therapy with metformin and sulfonylurea, and a sulfonylurea (glimepiride), both as add-on combination therap...

The following important adverse reactions are described below and elsewhere in the labeling: Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes and Other Ketoacidosis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Lower Limb Amputation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Volume Depletion [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Urosepsis and Pyelonephritis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use with Insulin and Insulin Secretagogues [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ...

INVOKANA is contraindicated in patients with a serious hypersensitivity reaction to INVOKANA, such as anaphylaxis or angioedema [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) and Adverse Reactions (6.1 , 6.2) ] . Serious hypersensitivity reaction to INVOKANA ( 4 )

Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Other Ketoacidosis : Consider ketone monitoring in patients at risk for ketoacidosis, as indicated. Assess for ketoacidosis regardless of presenting blood glucose levels and discontinue INVOKANA if ketoacidosis is suspected. Monitor patients for resolution of ketoacidosis before restarting ( 5.1 ) Lower Limb Amputation : Consider factors that may increase the risk of amputation before initiating INVOKANA. Monitor patients for in...

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS

Table 7Clinically Significant Drug Interactions with INVOKANA UGT Enzyme Inducers Clinical Impact: UGT enzyme inducers decrease canagliflozin exposure which may reduce the effectiveness of INVOKANA. Intervention: For patients with eGFR 60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 or greater, if an inducer of UGTs is administered with INVOKANA, increase the dosage to 200 mg daily in patients currently ...
