SIVEXTRO

Tedizolid phosphate is a prodrug that is converted by phosphatases to tedizolid, the microbiologically active moiety, following oral and intravenous administration. Only the pharmacokinetic profile of tedizolid is discussed further due to negligible systemic exposure of tedizolid phosphate following oral and intravenous administration. Following multiple once-daily oral or intravenous administration, steady-state concentrations are achieved within approximately three days with tedizolid accumula...

14.1 Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections Adults A total of 1333 adults with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) were randomized in two multicenter, multinational, double-blind, non-inferiority trials. Both trials compared SIVEXTRO 200 mg once daily for 6 days versus linezolid 600 mg every 12 hours for 10 days. In Trial 1, patients were treated with oral therapy, while in Trial 2, patients could receive oral therapy after a minimum of one day of intravenous therapy. Patients with cellulitis/erysipelas, major cutaneous abscess, or wound infection were enrol...

The most common adverse reactions (≥2%) in adult patients are nausea, headache, diarrhea, infusion- or injection-related adverse reactions, vomiting, and dizziness. ( 6.1 ) The most common adverse reactions (>2%) in pediatric patients (12 years to less than 18 years of age) are phlebitis and increased hepatic transaminases. ( 6.1 ) The most common adverse reactions (>2%) in pediatric patients (less than 12 years of age) are infusion- or injection-related adverse reactions and vomiting. ( 6.1 ) T...

Patients with neutropenia: The safety and efficacy of SIVEXTRO in patients with neutropenia (neutrophil counts <1000 cells/mm 3 ) have not been adequately evaluated. In an animal model of infection, the antibacterial activity of SIVEXTRO was reduced in the absence of granulocytes. Consider alternative therapies in neutropenic patients. ( 5.1 ) Clostridioides difficile -associated diarrhea: Evaluate if diarrhea occurs. ( 5.2 ) 5.1 Patients with Neutropenia The safety and efficacy of SIVEXTRO in p...

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Orally administered SIVEXTRO inhibits Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) in the intestine, which can increase the plasma concentrations of orally administered BCRP substrates, and the potential for adverse reactions. If possible, an interruption in the treatment of the co-administered BCRP substrate medicinal product should be considered during treatment with SIVEXTRO, esp...
