  • VIGADRONE (vigabatrin, USP) is an oral antiepileptic drug and is available as a white to off-white granular powder for oral solution in packets of 500u00a0mg.
  • The chemical name of vigabatrin, a racemate consisting of two enantiomers, is (u00b1)u00a04-amino-5-hexenoic acid. The molecular formula is CHNO and the molecular weight is 129.16. It has the following structural formula:
  • Vigabatrin, USP is a white to off-white powder which is freely soluble in water, slightly soluble in methyl alcohol, very slightly soluble in ethyl alcohol and chloroform, and insoluble in toluene and hexane. The pH of a 1% aqueous solution is about 6.9. The n-octanol/water partition coefficient of vigabatrin is about 0.011 (log -1.96) at physiologic pH. Vigabatrin melts with decomposition in a 3-degree range within the temperature interval of 171u00b0Cu00a0to 176u00b0C. The dissociation constants (pK) of vigabatrin are 4 and 9.7 at room temperature (25u00b0C).
  • VIGADRONEu00a0powder for oral solutionu00a0is available as white to off-white granular powder for oral administration. Each packet contains 500u00a0mg of vigabatrin.
  • No data
  • Vigabatrin showed no carcinogenic potential in mouse or rat when given in the diet at doses up to 150u00a0mg/kg/day for 18u00a0months (mouse) or at doses up to 150u00a0mg/kg/day for 2u00a0years (rat). These doses are less than the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) for infantile spasms (150u00a0mg/kg/day) and for refractory complex partial seizures (3u00a0g/day) on a mg/m basis.
  • Vigabatrin was negative in n n (Ames, CHO/HGPRT mammalian cell forward gene mutation, chromosomal aberration in rat lymphocytes) and in n n o (mouse bone marrow micronucleus) assays.
  • No adverse effects on male or female fertility were observed in rats at oral doses up to 150u00a0mg/kg/day (approximately u00bd the MRHD of 3u00a0g/day on a mg/m basis for refractory complex partial seizures).

  • Permanent Vision Loss
  • Inform patients and caregivers of the risk of permanent vision loss, particularly loss of peripheral vision, from VIGADRONE, and the need for monitoring vision n n n n
  • Monitoring of vision, including assessment of visual fields and visual acuity, is recommended at baseline (no later than 4u00a0weeks after starting VIGADRONE), at least every 3u00a0months while on therapy, and about 3u00a0to 6 months after discontinuation of therapy. In patients for whom vision testing is not possible, treatment may continue without recommended testing according to clinical judgment with appropriate patient or caregiver counseling. Patients or caregivers should be informed that if baseline or subsequent vision is notu00a0normal, VIGADRONE should only be used if the benefits of VIGADRONE treatment clearly outweigh the risks of additional vision loss.
  • Advise patients and caregivers that vision testing may be insensitive and may not detect vision loss before it is severe. Also advise patients and caregivers that if vision loss is documented, such loss is irreversible. Ensure that both of these points are understood by patients and caregivers.
  • Patients and caregivers should be informed that if changes in vision are suspected, they should notify their physician immediately.
