Brand Information
Cyklokapron (tranexamic acid)
WARNING: RISK OF MEDICATION ERRORS DUE TO INCORRECT ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION
CYKLOKAPRON is for intravenous use only. Serious, including fatal, adverse reactions including seizures and cardiac arrythmias have occurred when CYKLOKAPRON was inadvertently administered via the neuraxial route
1INDICATIONS AND USAGE
CYKLOKAPRON
2DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS
Injection: 1,000 mg/10 mL (100 mg/mL) clear and colorless solution in single-dose ampules
Injection: 1,000 mg/10 mL (100 mg/mL) clear and colorless solution in single-dose vials
3CONTRAINDICATIONS
CYKLOKAPRON Injection is contraindicated:
- As a neuraxial (i.e., intrathecal, epidural) injection
- In patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Anecdotal experience indicates that cerebral edema and cerebral infarction may be caused by CYKLOKAPRON in such patients.
- In patients with active intravascular clotting
- In patients with hypersensitivity to tranexamic acid or any of the ingredients
4ADVERSE REACTIONS
The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
- Risk of Medication Errors Due to Incorrect Route of Administration
- Thromboembolic Risk
- Seizures
- Hypersensitivity Reactions
- Visual Disturbances
- Dizziness
4.1Postmarketing Experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of tranexamic acid. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea) may occur and may resolve with dose-reduction. Allergic dermatitis and giddiness have been reported. Hypotension has been reported when intravenous injection is too rapid.
Thromboembolic events (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, cerebral thrombosis, acute renal cortical necrosis, and central retinal artery, vein obstruction and cases associated with concomitant use of combination hormonal contraceptives) have been rarely reported in patients receiving tranexamic acid for indications other than hemorrhage prevention in patients with hemophilia. Convulsion, chromatopsia, and visual impairment have also been reported.
Anaphylaxis or anaphylactoid reactions have been reported that are suggestive of a causal relationship.
5OVERDOSAGE
Cases of overdosage of CYKLOKAPRON have been reported. Based on these reports, symptoms of overdosage may be gastrointestinal, e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea; hypotensive, e.g., orthostatic symptoms; thromboembolic, e.g., arterial, venous, embolic; neurologic, e.g., visual impairment, convulsions, headache, mental status changes; myoclonus; and rash.
