Special Alerts:


[Posted 02/22/2011] ISSUE: FDA notified healthcare professionals that the Pregnancy section of drug labels for the entire class of antipsychotic drugs has been updated. The new drug labels now contain more and consistent information about the potential risk for abnormal muscle movements (extrapyramidal signs or EPS) and withdrawal symptoms in newborns whose mothers were treated with these drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy.


The symptoms of EPS and withdrawal in newborns may include agitation, abnormally increased or decreased muscle tone, tremor, sleepiness, severe difficulty breathing, and difficulty in feeding. In some newborns, the symptoms subside within hours or days and do not require specific treatment; other newborns may require longer hospital stays.


BACKGROUND: Antipsychotic drugs are used to treat symptoms of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.


RECOMMENDATION: Healthcare professionals should be aware of the effects of antipsychotic medications on newborns when the medications are used during pregnancy. Patients should not stop taking these medications if they become pregnant without talking to their healthcare professional, as abruptly stopping antipsychotic medications can cause significant complications for treatment. For more information visit the FDA website at: and .


[Posted 06/16/2008] FDA notified healthcare professionals that both conventional and atypical antipsychotics are associated with an increased risk of mortality in elderly patients treated for dementia-related psychosis. In April 2005, FDA notified healthcare professionals that patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with atypical antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. Since issuing that notification, FDA has reviewed additional information that indicates the risk is also associated with conventional antipsychotics. Antipsychotics are not indicated for the treatment of dementia-related psychosis. The prescribing information for all antipsychotic drugs will now include the same information about this risk in a BOXED WARNING and the WARNINGS section.

Introduction

Phenothiazine antipsychotic agent.a b c d f g i


Uses for fluphenazine decanoate


Psychotic Disorders


Pending revision, the material in this section should be considered in light of more recently available information in the MedWatch notification at the beginning of this monograph.


Symptomatic management of psychotic disorders (i.e., schizophrenia).a b c f g i


The long-acting decanoate ester is used mainly for maintenance therapy in patients with chronic schizophrenic disorder who cannot be relied on to take oral antipsychotic drugs; do not use for acute management of severely agitated patients.a b


Mental Retardation


Efficacy not established for management of behavioral complications in mental retardation.a b c f g i


fluphenazine decanoate Dosage and Administration


General



  • Use shorter-acting fluphenazine hydrochloride formulations in patients with acute schizophrenic reactions so that dosage can be readily adjusted according to patient’s tolerance and therapeutic response.a b



Administration


Administer fluphenazine hydrochloride orally or IM.a b c f g i


Administer fluphenazine decanoate IM or sub-Q.a b If used outside of psychiatric institutions, administer under direction of clinician experienced in use of psychotropic drugs, particularly phenothiazine derivatives.b


Avoid skin contact with elixir, oral concentrate solution, or injection since contact dermatitis rarely occurs.a d


Oral Administration


Fluphenazine hydrochloride: Administer orally every 6–8 hours initially; maintenance therapy can often be administered as a single daily dose.a c f g


When oral concentrate solution is used, dilute dose with at least 60 mL of suitable diluent (e.g., water; uncaffeinated soft drinks [e.g., Seven-Up]; carbonated orange beverage; sodium chloride; milk; V-8; or pineapple, apricot, prune, orange, tomato, or grapefruit juice) just before administration.a f (See Compatibility under Stability.)


IM or Sub-Q Administration


Fluphenazine hydrochloride: Administer IM every 6–8 hours.a f


Fluphenazine decanoate: Administer IM or sub-Q using a dry syringe and needle of at least 21 gauge; use of a wet needle or syringe may cause solution to become cloudy.b


Dosage


Pending revision, the material in this section should be considered in light of more recently available information in the MedWatch notification at the beginning of this monograph.


Available as fluphenazine hydrochloride or fluphenazine decanoate; dosage expressed in terms of the salt.b c f g i


Carefully adjust dosage according to individual requirements and response, using lowest possible effective dosage.a c f g


Because of risk of adverse reactions associated with cumulative effects of phenothiazines, periodically evaluate patients with a history of long-term therapy with fluphenazine and/or other antipsychotic agents to determine whether maintenance dosage may be decreased or drug therapy discontinued.a


Conversion from oral fluphenazine hydrochloride to long-acting decanoate injection may be indicated for psychotic patients stabilized on a fixed daily oral dosage.a c f g In patients without a history of therapy with phenothiazines, administer shorter-acting form for several weeks prior to instituting therapy with fluphenazine decanoate in order to determine patient’s approximate dosage requirements and susceptibility to adverse effects.a b


Precise formula for converting therapy from fluphenazine hydrochloride to fluphenazine decanoate not established.a An approximate conversion ratio of 12.5 mg every 3 weeks of fluphenazine decanoate for every 10 mg daily of fluphenazine hydrochloride has been used.a


Adults


Psychotic Disorders

Pending revision, the material in this section should be considered in light of more recently available information in the MedWatch notification at the beginning of this monograph.


Oral

Fluphenazine hydrochloride: Initially, 2.5–10 mg daily given in divided doses every 6–8 hours.a c f g Dosage may be gradually increased, if necessary, until desired clinical effects are obtained.a c f g


Optimum therapeutic effect often occurs with oral fluphenazine hydrochloride dosages <20 mg daily.a c f g Dosages up to 40 mg may be required in severely disturbed patients, but safety of prolonged administration of such dosages not established.a c f g Use dosages >20 mg daily with caution.a


After maximum response attained, reduce fluphenazine hydrochloride dosage gradually to maintenance dosage of 1–5 mg daily, often as a single dose.a c f g To avoid recurrence of psychotic symptoms, continued therapy is required following optimum therapeutic response.a


IM

Fluphenazine hydrochloride: Generally, IM dose is approximately one-third to one-half the oral dose.a i


Usual initial fluphenazine hydrochloride dose is 1.25 mg.a i Depending on severity and duration of symptoms, initial total IM dosage may range from 2.5–10 mg daily given in divided doses every 6–8 hours; may gradually increase dosage if necessary, until symptoms are controlled.a i


Use fluphenazine hydrochloride dosages >10 mg daily with caution.a i


After symptoms are controlled, oral therapy generally should replace parenteral therapy.a i


IM or Sub-Q

Fluphenazine decanoate: In patients with chronic schizophrenic disorder, usual initial dose is 12.5–25 mg.a b


Carefully adjust subsequent fluphenazine decanoate dose and dosage interval according to patient tolerance and response;a b if doses >50 mg are deemed necessary, increase the next and succeeding doses cautiously in increments of 12.5 mg, but do not exceed 100 mg.a b


When administered as maintenance therapy, a single fluphenazine decanoate injection may be effective in controlling schizophrenic symptoms for up to 4 weeks or longer; response may persist for up to 6 weeks in some patients.a b

Warnings/Precautions


Warnings


Pending revision, the material in this section should be considered in light of more recently available information in the MedWatch notification at the beginning of this monograph.


Tardive Dyskinesia

Tardive dyskinesia, a syndrome of potentially irreversible, involuntary dyskinetic movements, may develop in patients receiving antipsychotic agents, including fluphenazine.b c f g i Consider discontinuance.b c f g i


Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), a potentially fatal syndrome requiring immediate discontinuance of the drug and intensive symptomatic treatment, may occur in patients receiving antipsychotic agents, including fluphenazine.b c f g i


Sensitivity Reactions


Hypersensitivity

Skin disorders (e.g., pruritus, erythema, urticaria, seborrhea, photosensitivity, eczema, exfoliative dermatitis) reported with phenothiazine derivatives.b c f g i Contact dermatitis reported rarely.a


Consider possibility of anaphylactoid reactions.b c f g i


Cross-sensitivity

Possible cross-sensitivity with other phenothiazines; use with caution in patients who have developed cholestatic jaundice, dermatoses, or other allergic reactions to phenothiazine derivatives.b c f g i


General Precautions


Pending revision, the material in this section should be considered in light of more recently available information in the MedWatch notification at the beginning of this monograph.


Use phenothiazines with caution in debilitated patients, patients with renal or hepatic disease, patients with glaucoma or prostatic hypertrophy, and patients exposed to organophosphate insecticides.b c d f g i


Use phenothiazines with caution in patients with hypocalcemia, since susceptibility to dystonic reactions may be increased.d


Abrupt Withdrawal

Gastritis, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and tremulousness reported after abrupt discontinuance of high-dose therapy; minimize symptoms by continuing concomitant antiparkinsonian agents for several weeks after phenothiazine is withdrawn.b c f g i


Cardiovascular Effects

Hypotension occurs rarely.a b f g i Patients with pheochromocytoma, cerebral or vascular insufficiency, or severe cardiac reserve deficiency (e.g., mitral insufficiency), or psychotic patients receiving large doses of phenothiazines who are undergoing surgery may be especially prone to hypotensive effects;a b c f g i closely monitor such patients during therapy.a b c f g i


Hypertension and fluctuations in BP may occur.a b c f g i


Nervous System Effects

Possible risk of seizures; phenothiazines may lower seizure threshold.d Use with caution in patients with a history of seizures or EEG abnormalities or in those receiving anticonvulsant agents.b c d f g i Maintain adequate anticonvulsant therapy.d


Drowsiness or lethargy possible; may necessitate dosage reduction.b c f g i


Because of CNS depressant effects of phenothiazines, use with caution in patients with chronic respiratory disorders (e.g., severe asthma, emphysema, acute respiratory tract infections).d


Neurologic reactions from phenothiazine therapy may be similar to CNS manifestations accompanying certain disorders (e.g., Reye’s syndrome, encephalopathy, meningitis, tetanus); diagnosis of these disorders may be obscured or disease-associated manifestations may be incorrectly diagnosed as drug induced.d


Antiemetic effect of phenothiazines may mask signs of overdosage of toxic drugs (e.g., antineoplastic agents) or may obscure cause of vomiting in various disorders (e.g., intestinal obstruction, Reye’s syndrome, brain tumor).d


Phenothiazines depress hypothalamic mechanism for body temperature regulation; use caution in patients exposed to extreme heat or cold.b c f g i


Extrapyramidal symptoms occur frequently and are usually reversible; persistent reactions can usually be controlled by concomitant therapy with an antiparkinsonian drug and subsequent dosage reduction.a b c f g i


Autonomic reactions (e.g., nausea, appetite loss, salivation, polyuria, perspiration, dry mouth, headache, constipation) may occur.a b c f g i


Hematologic Effects

Blood dyscrasias, including leukopenia, agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenic or nonthrombocytopenic purpura, eosinophilia, and pancytopenia reported with phenothiazine derivatives.b c d f g i Perform hematologic evaluations periodically.b c d f g i


If manifestations of blood dyscrasias (e.g., sore throat, fever, weakness) occur, discontinue until possibility of adverse hematologic effect is ruled out; if evidence of cellular depression (i.e., decreased leukocyte and differential counts) occurs, discontinue and institute appropriate therapy.b c d f g i


Hepatic Effects

Liver damage, manifested by cholestatic jaundice may occur, particularly during first months of therapy;b c f g i discontinue immediately if liver damage occurs.d


Consider possibility of liver damage in patients receiving prolonged therapy.b c f g i Monitor hepatic function periodically.b c f g i


Ocular Effects

Consider possibility of pigmentary retinopathy and lenticular and corneal deposits in patients receiving prolonged therapy.b c d f g i Periodic ophthalmic examinations recommended in patients receiving prolonged phenothiazine therapy with moderate to high dosages.d


Endocrine Effects

Elevated prolactin concentrations, which persist during chronic administration, possible.b c d f g i


Galactorrhea, amenorrhea, gynecomastia, and impotence reported.b c f g i


Pulmonary Effects

Clinicians should be alert to possible development of “silent pneumonias” in patients receiving phenothiazines, including fluphenazine.b c f g i


Use with caution in patients with chronic respiratory disorders (e.g., severe asthma, emphysema, acute respiratory tract infections).d
