| | |
| ===Myocardial Ischemia and/or Infarction, Prinzmetal’s Angina, Other Vasospastic Reactions, and Cerebrovascular Events===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients that FROVA may cause serious cardiovascular adverse reactions such as myocardial infarction or stroke, which may result in hospitalization and even death. Although serious cardiovascular reactions can occur without warning symptoms, instruct patients to be alert for the signs and symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath, weakness, slurring of speech, and instruct them to ask for medical advice when observing any indicative sign or symptoms. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if they have symptoms of other vasospastic reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5, and 5.8)].
| |
| | |
| ===Anaphylactic/Anaphylactoid Reactions===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients that anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions have occurred in patients receiving FROVA. Such reactions can be life threatening or fatal. In general, anaphylactic reactions to drugs are more likely to occur in individuals with a history of sensitivity to multiple allergens [see Contraindications (4)].
| |
| | |
| ===Medication Overuse Headache===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients that use of drugs to treat acute [[migraine]]s for 10 or more days per month may lead to an exacerbation of headache, and encourage patients to record headache frequency and drug use (e.g., by keeping a headache diary) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)].
| |
| | |
| ===Serotonin Syndrome===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients about the risk of serotonin syndrome with the use of FROVA or other triptans, particularly during combined use with [[SSRIs]], [[SNRIs]], TCAs, and [[MAO]] inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) and Drug Interactions (7.3)].
| |
| | |
| ===Pregnancy===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients that FROVA should not be used during pregnancy unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].
| |
| | |
| ===Nursing Mothers===
| |
| | |
| Inform patients to notify their healthcare provider if they are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed [see Use in Specific Populations (8.3)].<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = FROVA (FROVATRIPTAN SUCCINATE) TABLET, FILM COATED [ENDO PHARMACEUTICALS INC.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=c0703630-9ce8-4259-841e-71fd2019fa66 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = }}</ref>
