  • Patients receiving the highest dose of levalbuterol inhalation solution should be monitored closely for adverse systemic effects, and the risks of such effects should be balanced against the potential for improved efficacy.
  • The use of levalbuterol inhalation solution can be continued as medically indicated to help control recurring bouts of bronchospasm. During this time, most patients gain optimal benefit from regular use of the inhalation solution.
  • If a previously effective dosage regimen fails to provide the usual response this may be a marker of destabilization of asthma and requires reevaluation of the patient and the treatment regimen, giving special consideration to the possible need for anti-inflammatory treatment, e.g., corticosteroids.

  • Beta-blockers: May block bronchodilatory effects of beta-agonists and produce severe bronchospasm. Patients with asthma should not normally be treated with beta-blockers. ()
  • Diuretic: May worsen electrocardiographic changes or hypokalemia associated with diuretic may worsen. Consider monitoring potassium levels. ()

  • No data
  • The expected symptoms with overdosage are those of excessive beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation and/or occurrence or exaggeration of any of the symptoms listed under , e.g., seizures, angina, hypertension or hypotension, tachycardia with rates up to 200 beats/min., arrhythmias, nervousness, headache, tremor, dry mouth, palpitation, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, malaise, and sleeplessness. Hypokalemia also may occur. As with all sympathomimetic medications, cardiac arrest and even death may be associated with the abuse of levalbuterol inhalation solution. Treatment consists of discontinuation of levalbuterol inhalation solution together with appropriate symptomatic therapy. The judicious use of a cardioselective beta-receptor blocker may be considered, bearing in mind that such medication can produce bronchospasm. There is insufficient evidence to determine if dialysis is beneficial for overdosage of levalbuterol inhalation solution.
  • Levalbuterol Inhalation Solution USP is a sterile, clear, colorless, preservative-free solution of the hydrochloride salt of levalbuterol, the (R)-enantiomer of the drug substance racemic albuterol. Levalbuterol HCl is a relatively selective beta-adrenergic receptor agonist [see ]. The chemical name for levalbuterol HCl is (R)-u03b1-[[(1,1-dimethylethyl)amino]methyl]-4-hydroxy-1,3-benzenedimethanol hydrochloride, and its established chemical structure is as follows:
  • The molecular weight of levalbuterol HCl is 275.8, and its empirical formula is CHNOu2022HCl. It is a white to off-white, crystalline solid, with a melting point of approximately 188u00b0C and is soluble in water and slightly soluble in ethanol.
  • Levalbuterol HCl is the USAN modified name for (R)-albuterol HCl in the United States.
  • Levalbuterol Inhalation Solution USP is supplied in unit-dose vials and requires no dilution before administration by nebulization. Each 3 mL unit-dose vial contains 0.31 mg (0.0103%) of levalbuterol (as 0.36 mg of levalbuterol HCl) or 0.63 mg (0.021%) of levalbuterol (as 0.73 mg of levalbuterol HCl) or 1.25 mg (0.042%) of levalbuterol (as 1.44 mg of levalbuterol HCl), sodium chloride to adjust tonicity, 0.33 mg of edetate disodium dihydrate, 6 mg of trisodium citrate dihydrate and sulfuric acid to adjust the pH to 4.0 (3.3 to 4.5).
  • No data
  • Although there have been no carcinogenesis studies with levalbuterol HCl, racemic albuterol sulfate has been evaluated for its carcinogenic potential.
  • In a 2 year study in Sprague-Dawley rats, dietary administration of racemic albuterol sulfate resulted in a significant dose-related increase in the incidence of benign leiomyomas of the mesovarium at doses of 2 mg/kg/day and greater (approximately 4 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for adults and approximately 5 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for children on a mg/mbasis). In an 18 month study in CD-1 mice and a 22 month study in the golden hamster, dietary administration of racemic albuterol sulfate showed no evidence of tumorigenicity. Dietary doses in CD-1 mice were up to 500 mg/kg/day (approximately 540 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for adults and approximately 630 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for children on a mg/mbasis) and doses in the golden hamster study were up to 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 90 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for adults on a mg/mbasis and approximately 105 times the MRHDIDu00a0of levalbuterol HCl for children on a mg/mbasis).
  • Levalbuterol HCl was not mutagenic in the Ames test or the CHO/HPRT Mammalian Forward Gene Mutation Assay. Levalbuterol HCl was not clastogenic in the micronucleus test in mouse bone marrow. Racemic albuterol sulfate was not clastogenic in an chromosomal aberration assay in CHO cell cultures.
  • No fertility studies have been conducted with levalbuterol hydrochloride. Reproduction studies in rats using racemic albuterol sulfate demonstrated no evidence of impaired fertility at oral doses up to 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 108 times the maximum recommended daily inhalation dose of levalbuterol HCl for adults on a mg/mbasis).
  • Adults and Adolescents u2265 12 Years Old
  • The safety and efficacy of levalbuterol inhalation solution were evaluated in a 4 week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in 362 adult and adolescent patients 12 years of age and older, with mild-to-moderate asthma (mean baseline FEV 60% of predicted). Approximately half of the patients were also receiving inhaled corticosteroids. Patients were randomized to receive levalbuterol 0.63 mg, levalbuterol 1.25 mg, racemic albuterol sulfate 1.25 mg, racemic albuterol sulfate 2.5 mg, or placebo three times a day administered via a PARI LC Plusu2122 nebulizer and a Dura-Nebportable compressor. Racemic albuterol delivered by a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) was used on an as-needed basis as the rescue medication.
  • Efficacy, as measured by the mean percent change from baseline FEV, was demonstrated for all active treatment regimens compared with placebo on day 1 and day 29. On both day 1 (see Figure 1) and day 29 (see Figure 2), 1.25 mg of levalbuterol demonstrated the largest mean percent change from baseline FEV compared with the other active treatments. A dose of 0.63 mg of levalbuterol and 2.5 mg of racemic albuterol sulfate produced a clinically comparable mean percent change from baseline FEV on both day 1 and day 29.
  • The mean time to onset of a 15% increase in FEV over baseline for levalbuterol at doses of 0.63 mg and 1.25 mg was approximately 17 minutes and 10 minutes, respectively, and the mean time to peak effect for both doses was approximately 1.5 hours after 4 weeks of treatment. The mean duration of effect, as measured by a > 15% increase from baseline FEV, was approximately 5 hours after administration of 0.63 mg of levalbuterol and approximately 6 hours after administration of 1.25 mg of levalbuterol after 4 weeks of treatment. In some patients, the duration of effect was as long as 8 hours.
  • Children 6 to 11 Years Old
  • A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled study was conducted in children with mild-to-moderate asthma (mean baseline FEV 73% of predicted) (n = 316). Following a 1 week placebo run-in, subjects were randomized to levalbuterol (0.31 or 0.63 mg), racemic albuterol (1.25 or 2.5 mg), or placebo, which were delivered three times a day for 3 weeks using a PARI LC Plusu2122 nebulizer and a Dura-Neb3000 compressor.
  • Efficacy, as measured by mean peak percent change from baseline FEV, was demonstrated for all active treatment regimens compared with placebo on day 1 and day 21. Time profile FEV curves for day 1 and day 21 are shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, respectively. The onset of effect (time to a 15% increase in FEV over test-day baseline) and duration of effect (maintenance of a > 15% increase in FEV over test-day baseline) of levalbuterol were clinically comparable to those of racemic albuterol.
  • Levalbuterol Inhalation Solution USP is supplied in 3 mL unit-dose, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) vials as a clear, colorless, sterile, preservative-free, aqueous solution, in three different strengths of levalbuterol (0.31 mg, 0.63 mg, 1.25 mg). Each strength of levalbuterol inhalation solution USP is available in a shelf-carton containing 6 foil pouches, each containing 5 unit-dose LDPE vials.
