Division of Pfizer Inc The effect on fertility appeared to be in the female since fertility was not impaired when males given 160 mg/kg/day (8 times the MRHD based on mg/m2 body surface area) were mated with untreated females. In the double-blind randomized phase, patients continued treatment with lithium or valproic acid and were randomized to receive either ziprasidone (administered twice daily totaling 80 mg to 160 mg per day) or placebo. For patients taking ziprasidone who experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes, e.g., dizziness, palpitations, or syncope, the prescriber should initiate further evaluation, e.g., Holter monitoring may be useful. Any patient treated with atypical antipsychotics should be monitored for symptoms of hyperglycemia including polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, and weakness. Ziprasidone is a psychotropic agent that is chemically unrelated to phenothiazine or butyrophenone antipsychotic agents. There were few patients with a rating higher than 5 on the BARS, as the most severely agitated patients were generally unable to provide informed consent for participation in premarketing clinical trials. Normal to High (<100 mg/dL to 126 mg/dL), Borderline to High (100 mg/dL and <126 mg/dL to 126 mg/dL), Normal to High (<150 mg/dL to 200 mg/dL), Borderline to High (150 mg/dL and <200 mg/dL to 200 mg/dL), Normal to High (<200 mg/dL to 240 mg/dL), Borderline to High (200 mg/dL and <240 mg/dL to 240 mg/dL), Normal to High (<100 mg/dL to 160 mg/dL), Borderline to High (100 mg/dL and <160 mg/dL to 160 mg/dL), abdominal pain, flu syndrome, fever, accidental fall, face edema, chills, photosensitivity reaction, flank pain, hypothermia, motor vehicle accident, tachycardia, hypertension, postural hypotension, bradycardia, angina pectoris, atrial fibrillation, first degree AV block, bundle branch block, phlebitis, pulmonary embolus, cardiomegaly, cerebral infarct, cerebrovascular accident, deep thrombophlebitis, myocarditis, thrombophlebitis, rectal hemorrhage, dysphagia, tongue edema, gum hemorrhage, jaundice, fecal impaction, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase increased, hematemesis, cholestatic jaundice, hepatitis, hepatomegaly, leukoplakia of mouth, fatty liver deposit, melena, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, thyroiditis, anemia, ecchymosis, leukocytosis, leukopenia, eosinophilia, lymphadenopathy, thrombocytopenia, hypochromic anemia, lymphocytosis, monocytosis, basophilia, lymphedema, polycythemia, thrombocythemia, thirst, transaminase increased, peripheral edema, hyperglycemia, creatine phosphokinase increased, alkaline phosphatase increased, hypercholesteremia, dehydration, lactic dehydrogenase increased, albuminuria, hypokalemia, BUN increased, creatinine increased, hyperlipemia, hypocholesteremia, hyperkalemia, hypochloremia, hypoglycemia, hyponatremia, hypoproteinemia, glucose tolerance decreased, gout, hyperchloremia, hyperuricemia, hypocalcemia, hypoglycemicreaction, hypomagnesemia, ketosis, respiratory alkalosis, agitation, extrapyramidal syndrome, tremor, dystonia, hypertonia, dyskinesia, hostility, twitching, paresthesia, confusion, vertigo, hypokinesia, hyperkinesia, abnormal gait, oculogyric crisis, hypesthesia, ataxia, amnesia, cogwheel rigidity, delirium, hypotonia, akinesia, dysarthria, withdrawal syndrome, buccoglossal syndrome, choreoathetosis, diplopia, incoordination, neuropathy, myoclonus, nystagmus, torticollis, circumoral paresthesia, opisthotonos, reflexes increased, trismus, maculopapular rash, urticaria, alopecia, eczema, exfoliative dermatitis, contact dermatitis, vesiculobullous rash, conjunctivitis, dry eyes, tinnitus, blepharitis, cataract, photophobia, eye hemorrhage, visual field defect, keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, impotence, abnormal ejaculation, amenorrhea, hematuria, menorrhagia, female lactation, polyuria, urinary retention metrorrhagia, male sexual dysfunction, anorgasmia, glycosuria, gynecomastia, vaginal hemorrhage, nocturia, oliguria, female sexual dysfunction, uterine hemorrhage, ANALYSIS(0049-1203), MANUFACTURE(0049-1203), PACK(0049-1203), LABEL(0049-1203), ANALYSIS(0049-1203), API MANUFACTURE(0049-1203), GEODON intramuscular is indicated for the treatment of acute agitation in schizophrenic adult patients for whom treatment with ziprasidone is appropriate and who need intramuscular antipsychotic medication for rapid control of agitation, in patients with a known history of QT prolongation (including congenital long QT syndrome), in patients with recent acute myocardial infarction, in patients with uncompensated heart failure. Adverse Reactions Occurring at an Incidence of 1% or More Among Ziprasidone-Treated Patients in Short-Term Trials of Intramuscular Ziprasidone. Mar 27, 2013. but as this is a thread about the use of haldol and ativan together, one would hope the ativan would counteract the possiblity of akathesia . Geodon Injection Dosage and Administration Acute Treatment of Agitation in Schizophrenia Intramuscular Dosing The recommended dose is 10 mg to 20 mg administered as required up to a maximum dose of 40 mg per day. Advise patients that GEODON may cause extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms (agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress, and feeding disorder) in a neonate. There is little potential for drug interactions with ziprasidone due to displacement [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Clinical trials in adults for oral ziprasidone included approximately 5700 patients and/or normal subjects exposed to one or more doses of ziprasidone. Adverse Reactions Occurring at an Incidence of 2% or More Among Ziprasidone-Treated Patients in Short-Term, Oral, Placebo-Controlled Trials. In long-term (at least 1 year), placebo-controlled, flexible-dose studies in schizophrenia, the mean change from baseline in random total cholesterol for ziprasidone 2040 mg BID was +2.5 mg/dL (N=14); for ziprasidone 6080 mg BID was -19.7 mg/dL (N=10); and for placebo was -28.0 mg/dL (N=9). Ziprasidone has not been evaluated or used to any appreciable extent in patients with a recent history of myocardial infarction or unstable heart disease. The results of the intramuscular ziprasidone trials follow: GEODON for Injection should be stored at 25C (77F); excursions permitted to 15C to 30C (59F to 86F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature] in dry form. Limited data from a published case report indicate the presence of ziprasidone in human milk. Based upon the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profile of ziprasidone, possible interactions could be anticipated: Approximately two-thirds of ziprasidone is metabolized via a combination of chemical reduction by glutathione and enzymatic reduction by aldehyde oxidase. A reaction was considered treatment emergent if it occurred for the first time or worsened while receiving therapy following baseline evaluation. In a long-term (at least 1 year), placebo-controlled, fixed-dose study in schizophrenia, the mean change from baseline weight for ziprasidone 20 mg BID was -2.6 kg (N=72); for ziprasidone 40 mg BID was -3.3 kg (N=69); for ziprasidone 80 mg BID was -2.8 kg (N=70) and for placebo was -3.8 kg (N=70). Therefore, ziprasidone should not be given with: Ziprasidone is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to the product. Increases in serum prolactin were observed in a 1-month dietary study in female, but not male, mice at 100 and 200 mg/kg/day (or 2.5 and 5 times the MRHD based on mg/m2 body surface area). Ziprasidone was superior to placebo in increasing the time to recurrence of a mood episode. Feb 15, 2021 A grizzled LPN veteran taught me a nice little trick, pull up your haldol first in the syringe and inject it into your Ativan vial, then draw both of them up. When taking any two medications, consider this in addition to the fact that they have different mechanisms of action. There is no general agreement about specific pharmacological treatment regimens for NMS. Hypokalemia (and/or hypomagnesemia) may increase the risk of QT prolongation and arrhythmia. Ziprasidone dosed adjunctively to valproate in a maintenance trial of bipolar patients did not affect mean therapeutic valproate levels. Because of the risk of QTc prolongation and orthostatic hypotension with ziprasidone, caution should be observed in cardiac patients [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3), (5.9)]. PREMIERProRx is a registered trademark of Premier Healthcare Alliance, L.P., used under license. Four of the 5 trials were able to distinguish ziprasidone from placebo; one short-term study did not. Titration within the range of 4080 mg twice daily (in 20 mg twice daily increments) was permitted for the duration of the study. There have been few reports of hyperglycemia or diabetes in patients treated with GEODON. Applies to: Ativan (lorazepam) and Zyprexa (olanzapine) Ask your doctor before using LORazepam together with OLANZapine. The effects on fertility are reversible [see Warnings and Precautions (5.15) and Use in Specific Populations (8.3)]. In the ziprasidone-treated patients, neither case suggested a role of ziprasidone. If circumstances are so compelling as to warrant mixing any Two meds that are Y site compatible may not necessarily be compatible mixed in an IM syringe. Since there is no experience regarding the safety of administering ziprasidone intramuscular to schizophrenic patients already taking oral ziprasidone, the practice of co-administration is not recommended. Atypical antipsychotic drugs have been associated with metabolic changes that may increase cardiovascular/cerebrovascular risk. Discontinue ziprasidone if DRESS is suspected. One case of priapism was reported in the premarketing database. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Doses of 40 and 160 mg/kg/day (2 and 8 times the MRHD based on mg/m2 body surface area) were associated with maternal toxicity. While the relationship of the reaction to ziprasidone use has not been established, other drugs with alpha-adrenergic blocking effects have been reported to induce priapism, and it is possible that ziprasidone may share this capacity. Less than one-third of ziprasidone metabolic clearance is mediated by cytochrome P450 catalyzed oxidation. In male mice, there was no increase in incidence of tumors relative to controls. Advise patients to inform their health care providers of the following: History of QT prolongation; recent acute myocardial infarction; uncompensated heart failure; prescription of other drugs that have demonstrated QT prolongation; risk for significant electrolyte abnormalities; and history of cardiac arrhythmia [see Contraindications (4.1) and Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]. Severe cutaneous adverse reactions are sometimes fatal. In the other study, the higher dose was 10 mg, which could be given up to 4 times in the 24 hours of the study, at interdose intervals of no less than 2 hours. There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to atypical antipsychotics, including GEODON, during pregnancy. But the LSD will likely not do anything on account of Geodon's high affinity blockade of the 5HT2a receptor. Other Adverse Reactions Observed During the Premarketing Evaluation of Oral Ziprasidone. In the patient taking the largest confirmed amount, 3,240 mg, the only symptoms reported were minimal sedation, slurring of speech, and transitory hypertension (200/95). Ziprasidone dosed adjunctively to lithium in a maintenance trial of bipolar patients did not affect mean therapeutic lithium levels. Of the total number of subjects in clinical studies of ziprasidone, 2.4 percent were 65 and over. The empirical formula is C21H21ClN4OS CH3SO3H 3H2O and its molecular weight is 563.09. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. The empirical formula of C21H21ClN4OS (free base of ziprasidone) represents the following structural formula: GEODON for Injection contains a lyophilized form of ziprasidone mesylate trihydrate. Although a single fixed-dose haloperidol arm was included as a comparative treatment in one of the three short-term trials, this single study was inadequate to provide a reliable and valid comparison of ziprasidone and haloperidol. The efficacy of intramuscular ziprasidone in the management of agitated schizophrenic patients was established in two short-term, double-blind trials of schizophrenic subjects who were considered by the investigators to be "acutely agitated" and in need of IM antipsychotic medication. When ziprasidone was administered to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis, an increased incidence of fetal structural abnormalities (ventricular septal defects and other cardiovascular malformations, and kidney alterations) was observed at a dose of 30 mg/kg/day (3 times the MRHD of 200 mg/day based on mg/m2 body surface area). Hypotension and circulatory collapse should be treated with appropriate measures such as intravenous fluids. Evidence for the use of chemical sedation is limited to small trials of at most a few hundred patients. As with other drugs that antagonize dopamine D2 receptors, ziprasidone elevates prolactin levels in humans. Increased prolactin levels were also observed in animal studies with this compound, and were associated with an increase in mammary gland neoplasia in mice; a similar effect was not observed in rats [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Cimetidine at a dose of 800 mg QD for 2 days did not affect ziprasidone pharmacokinetics. And for two, Benadryl never gets mixed with Haldol in the same syringe: precipitate forms in about 5 minutes. Generic name: ziprasidone hydrochloride Although disturbances such as galactorrhea, amenorrhea, gynecomastia, and impotence have been reported with prolactin-elevating compounds, the clinical significance of elevated serum prolactin levels is unknown for most patients. Ziprasidone at a dose of 40 mg twice daily administered concomitantly with lithium at a dose of 450 mg twice daily for 7 days did not affect the steady-state level or renal clearance of lithium. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Dosage form: injection, powder, lyophilized, for solution Exposure increases in a dose-related manner and following three days of intramuscular dosing, little accumulation is observed. The need for continued treatment should be reassessed periodically. ECG Changes - Ziprasidone is associated with an increase in the QTc interval [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]. Certain circumstances may increase the risk of the occurrence of torsade de pointes and/or sudden death in association with the use of drugs that prolong the QTc interval, including (1) bradycardia; (2) hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia; (3) concomitant use of other drugs that prolong the QTc interval; and (4) presence of congenital prolongation of the QT interval. Reconstitution of vial: Using aseptic technique, add 1.2 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP to the single-dose vial and shake vigorously until all the drug is dissolved. In long-term (at least 1 year), placebo-controlled, flexible-dose studies in schizophrenia, the mean change from baseline weight for ziprasidone 2040 mg BID was -2.3 kg (N=124); for ziprasidone 6080 mg BID was +2.5 kg (N=10); and for placebo was -2.9 kg (N=72). Can you. Reproductive System and Breast Disorders: ziprasidone mesylate injection, powder, lyophilized, for solution. In animal studies, ziprasidone administration to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis caused developmental toxicity at doses similar to recommended human doses, and was teratogenic in rabbits at 3 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD). Intramuscular Preparation for Administration. GEODON for Injection (ziprasidone mesylate) should only be administered by intramuscular injection and should not be administered intravenously. Although torsade de pointes has not been observed in association with the use of ziprasidone in premarketing studies and experience is too limited to rule out an increased risk, there have been rare post-marketing reports (in the presence of multiple confounding factors) [see Adverse Reactions (6.2)]. Some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. #13. Doses of 10 mg may be administered every two hours; doses of 20 mg may be administered every four hours up to a maximum of 40 mg/day. Close medical supervision and monitoring should continue until the patient recovers. This minimal amount of contact and mixing may allow 2 meds that really aren't terribly compatible to be given together because . other drugs that have demonstrated QT prolongation as one of their pharmacodynamic effects and have this effect described in the full prescribing information as a contraindication or a boxed or bolded warning. Ziprasidone intramuscular is intended for intramuscular use only and should not be administered intravenously. In the same long-term fixed-dose schizophrenia study, the proportion of subjects with 7% increase in weight from baseline for ziprasidone 20 mg BID was 5.6% (N=72); for ziprasidone 40 mg BID was 2.9% (N=69); for ziprasidone 80 mg BID was 5.7% (N=70) and for placebo was 2.9% (N=70). The primary endpoint in this study was time to recurrence of a mood episode (manic, mixed or depressed episode) requiring intervention, which was defined as any of the following: discontinuation due to a mood episode, clinical intervention for a mood episode (e.g., initiation of medication or hospitalization), or Mania Rating Scale score 18 or a MADRS score 18 (on 2 consecutive assessments no more than 10 days apart). If you are taking both of these medications, be sure to use separate syringes for each one. The results of the oral ziprasidone trials in adult bipolar I disorder, manic/mixed episode follow: in a 3-week placebo-controlled trial (n=210), the dose of ziprasidone was 40 mg twice daily on Day 1 and 80 mg twice daily on Day 2. Given these confounders, the relationship between atypical antipsychotic use and hyperglycemia-related adverse reactions is not completely understood. Following is a list of COSTART terms that reflect treatment-emergent adverse reactions as defined in the introduction to the ADVERSE REACTIONS section reported by patients treated with ziprasidone in schizophrenia trials at multiple doses >4 mg/day within the database of 3834 patients. In arriving at a diagnosis, it is important to exclude cases where the clinical presentation includes both serious medical illness (e.g., pneumonia, systemic infection, etc.) In long-term (at least 1 year), placebo-controlled, flexible-dose studies in schizophrenia, the mean change from baseline in random triglycerides for ziprasidone 2040 mg BID was +26.3 mg/dL (N=15); for ziprasidone 6080 mg BID was -39.3 mg/dL (N=10); and for placebo was +12.9 mg/dL (N=9). Possible risk factors for leukopenia/neutropenia include pre-existing low white blood cell count (WBC) and history of drug induced leukopenia/neutropenia. Additional signs may include elevated creatinine phosphokinase, myoglobinuria (rhabdomyolysis), and acute renal failure. An in vitro enzyme inhibition study utilizing human liver microsomes showed that ziprasidone had little inhibitory effect on CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, and thus would not likely interfere with the metabolism of drugs primarily metabolized by these enzymes. Rare adverse reactions occurring in fewer than 1/1000 patients (<0.1% of patients). no its not good to mix any drugs together in a syringe inless its in a IV bag mixed by a professional but deffinitly dont mix in a single syringe. The most common reaction associated with dropout was rash, including 7 dropouts for rash among ziprasidone patients (1%) compared to no placebo patients [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8)]. The mean daily dose of ziprasidone in this study was 112 mg. While the clinical trials did not reveal any tendency for drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic and it is not possible to predict on the basis of this limited experience the extent to which ziprasidone will be misused, diverted, and/or abused once marketed.
