    NDA 22-020 Page 4 PROTONIX® (pantoprazole sodium) Delayed-Release Tablets PROTONIX® (pantoprazole sodium) For Delayed-Release Oral Suspension Rx only DESCRIPTION ® The active ingredient in PROTONIX (pantoprazole sodium) Delayed-Release Tablets and ® PROTONIX (pantoprazole sodium) For Delayed-Release Oral Suspension is a substituted benzimidazole, sodium 5-(difluoromethoxy)-2-[[(3,4-dimethoxy-2-pyridinyl)methyl] sulfinyl]- 1H-benzimidazole sesquihydrate, a compound that inhibits gastric acid secretion. Its empirical formula is C16H14F2N3NaO4S x 1.5 H2O, with a molecular weight of 432.4. The structural formula is: Pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate is a white to off-white crystalline powder and is racemic. Pantoprazole has weakly basic and acidic properties. Pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate is freely soluble in water, very slightly soluble in phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, and practically insoluble in n-hexane. The stability of the compound in aqueous solution is pH-dependent. The rate of degradation increases with decreasing pH. At ambient temperature, the degradation half-life is approximately 2.8 hours at pH 5.0 and approximately 220 hours at pH 7.8. PROTONIX (pantoprazole sodium) is supplied as a delayed-release tablet for oral administration, available in 2 strengths (40 mg and 20 mg); and as delayed-release granules for oral administration, available in the 40 mg strength. NDA 22-020 Page 5 Each PROTONIX (pantoprazole sodium) Delayed-Release tablet contains 45.1 mg or 22.6 mg of pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate (equivalent to 40 mg or 20 mg pantoprazole, respectively) with the following inactive ingredients: calcium stearate, crospovidone, hypromellose, iron oxide, mannitol, methacrylic acid copolymer, polysorbate 80, povidone, propylene glycol, sodium carbonate, sodium lauryl sulfate, titanium dioxide, and triethyl citrate.

  • Proton-Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Use
    Proton-Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Use The FDA has issued multiple warnings on the long-term use of PPIs. These include: increased risk of C. difficile infection1, hypomagnesemia2, and fractures of the hip, wrist, and spine3. Therefore, prudent prescribing of PPIs is warranted. The FDA recommends use of the lowest dose and shortest duration of PPI therapy appropriate for the condition being treated1-3. Patient compliance, time of administration (prior to meals), and dietary indiscretions (i.e. alcohol or irritating foods) should be assessed prior to titration of PPI doses. Indication Treatment Duration Gastroesophageal reflux disease Initial 8 week course for symptom (GERD)6 relief or esophagitis Symptomatic relief Maintenance therapy determined Omeprazole 20 mg PO by response and severity of Acute healing of erosive or ulcerative once daily disease esophagitis OR Pantoprazole 40mg PO For patients that require more Maintenance healing of erosive or once daily long-term therapy, consider a ulcerative esophagitis trial of a lower dose, on-demand therapy, or intermittent therapy to minimize exposure Stress ulcer prophylaxis Transition to PO when possible Reserve PPIs for critically ill patients Continue until resolution of with increased risk of bleeding:4,5 underlying risk factors and/or At least one of the following: critical illness - Coagulopathy (platelet count <50,000 mm3, INR >1.5, or aPTT Recommend discontinuation at >2x control) discharge, unless there is - Mechanical ventilation >48 hours Omeprazole another indication for use - History

  • New and Future Drug Development for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
    J Neurogastroenterol Motil, Vol. 20 No. 1 January, 2014 pISSN: 2093-0879 eISSN: 2093-0887 http://dx.doi.org/10.5056/jnm.2014.20.1.6 JNM Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility Review New and Future Drug Development for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Carla Maradey-Romero and Ronnie Fass* The Esophageal and Swallowing Center, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, MetroHealth Medical Center, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA Medical therapy remains the most popular treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Whilst interest in drug devel- opment for GERD has declined over the last few years primarily due to the conversion of most proton pump inhibitor (PPI)’s to generic and over the counter compounds, there are still numerous areas of unmet needs in GERD. Drug development has been focused on potent histamine type 2 receptor antagonist’s, extended release PPI’s, PPI combination, potassium-competitive acid blockers, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation reducers, prokinetics, mucosal protectants and esophageal pain modulators. It is likely that the aforementioned compounds will be niched for specific areas of unmet need in GERD, rather than compete with the presently available anti-reflux therapies. (J Neurogastroenterol Motil 2014;20:6-16) Key Words Erosive esophagitis; Gastroesophageal reflux; Heartburn; Proton pump inhibitors Most patients with GERD fall into 1 of 3 categories: non- erosive reflux disease (NERD), erosive esophagitis (EE), and Introduction Barrett’s esophagus (BE). The 2 main phenotypes of GERD, Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common con- NERD and EE, appear to have different pathophysiological and dition that develops when reflux of stomach contents cause trou- clinical characteristics.

The aim of our study was to investigate the inhibitory effects on gastric acid secretion of a single oral administration of a proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole 20 mg, and an H2-receptor antagonist, roxatidine 75 mg. Methods: Ten Helicobacter pylori-negative male subjects participated in this randomized, two-way crossover study. Intragastric pH was monitored continuously for 6 h after single oral admini- stration of omeprazole 20 mg and roxatidine 75 mg.

  • Additional Restrictions for Select Ppis and Auto-Substitutions for Most
    CALGARY ZONE Long Term Care Formulary RS - 04 SECTION SUBJECT PAGE RESTRICTED USE Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) 1 of 3 pantoprazole magnesium 40 mg EC tablet rabeprazole 10 mg EC tablet Additional Restrictions for use (refer to page 3) omeprazole 20 mg DR capsule* lansoprazole 15 mg DR capsule* lansoprazole 15 mg & 30 mg oral disintegrating tablet** _____________ YY MM DD Original 98 11 25 Last update 17 03 31 Additional Restrictions for Select PPIs and Auto-substitutions For most patients, there are no clinically important differences between equivalent dosed PPIs in the treatment of most acid-related gastrointestinal conditions (1), therefor, the LTC Formulary lists only select PPIs as Formulary listings, and lists others with additional restrictions (see Table 1). The following criteria were considered in selecting the formulary listing: a lower cost, alignment with AHS formulary, and ability to meet the administration needs of most residents. An auto-substitution (therapeutic interchange) policy for oral PPI therapy was approved by the Calgary Zone LTC Pharmacy and Therapeutics committee in 1998, and continues to be in place. For residents who are unable to use the selected PPIs, a non-formulary request for funding for an alternate medication may be submitted for consideration. Refer to Table 1 for the current preferred PPI, Table 2 for comparable dosing for Auto-substitution, and to the following link Auto-substitution List - PPI-ASL-05 for the current PPI conversion table.

Pantoprazole is a selective “proton pump inhibitor”, a medicine which reduces the amount of acid produced in your stomach. It is used for treating acid-related diseases of the stomach and intestine. Pantoprazole is used to treat adults and adolescents 12 years of age and above for • Symptoms (e.g. heartburn, acid regurgitation, pain on swallowing) associated to gastro-oesophageal reflux disease caused by reflux of acid from the stomach. • Long-term management of reflux oesophagitis (inflammation of the oesophagus accompanied by the regurgitation of stomach acid) and preventing its return.
