Indications and Usage for Natelle Complete


Natelle® Complete is indicated to provide vitamin/mineral and DHA omega-3 fatty acid supplementation to women throughout pregnancy, during the postnatal period for both lactating and non–lactating mothers, and throughout the childbearing years. Natelle® Complete may be beneficial in improving the nutritional status of women prior to conception.



Contraindications


This product is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.




WARNING: Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6.


Keep this product out of the reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, call a doctor or poison control center immediately.



Warnings

Ingestion of more than 3 grams of omega-3 fatty acids per day has been shown to have potential antithrombotic effects, including increased bleeding time and INR. Administration of omega-3 fatty acids should be avoided in patients on anticoagulants and in those known to have an inherited or acquired bleeding diathesis.



Precautions


Folic acid in doses above 0.1 mg daily may obscure pernicious anemia in that hematologic remission can occur while neurological manifestations remain progressive. Other sources of folic acid are leafy vegetables, fortified cereals and bread. Causes of neural tube defect are multifactorial and folic acid supplements alone may not prevent these birth defects.


Pediatric Use: Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.


Geriatric Use: Clinical studies on this product have not been performed to determine whether elderly subjects respond differently from younger subjects.



Adverse Reactions


Allergic sensitization has been reported following both oral and parenteral administration of folic acid.

hydroxyurea



Generic Name: hydroxyurea (hye DROX ee yoo REE a)

Brand names: Droxia, Hydrea, Mylocel


What is hydroxyurea?

Hydroxyurea affects certain cells in the body, such as cancer cells or sickled red blood cells.


Hydroxyurea is used to treat chronic myelocytic leukemia, ovarian cancer, and certain types of skin cancer (melanoma and primary squamous cell cancer of the head and neck).


Hydroxyurea is also used to reduce pain episodes and the need for blood transfusions in people with sickle cell anemia. Hydroxyurea will not cure sickle cell anemia.


Hydroxyurea may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about hydroxyurea?


Do not use hydroxyurea if you are pregnant. It could harm the unborn baby. You should not use hydroxyurea if you are allergic to it, or if you have severe bone marrow suppression, severe anemia, or low levels of platelets in your blood.

Before using hydroxyurea, tell your doctor if you have bone marrow suppression, HIV or AIDS, liver or kidney disease, or if you are receiving chemotherapy or radiation.


Wash your hands before and after you handle a hydroxyurea capsule or the bottle that contains the pills. For best protection, wear disposable gloves when handling the pills. Do not open the hydroxyurea capsule. Do not use a pill that has been accidentally opened or broken. The medicine from an open capsule can be dangerous if it gets in your eyes, mouth, or nose, or on your skin. If this occurs, wash your skin with soap and water or rinse your eyes with water.

If any powder from an open capsule is spilled, wipe it up at once with a damp paper towel and throw the towel away in a sealed plastic bag where children and pets cannot get to it.


Hydroxyurea can lower blood cells that help your body fight infections. This can make it easier for you to bleed from an injury or get sick from being around others who are ill. Your blood may need to be tested often. Your kidney or liver function may also need to be tested. Visit your doctor regularly.


What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking hydroxyurea?


You should not use hydroxyurea if you are allergic to it, or if you have:

  • severe bone marrow suppression;




  • severe anemia; or




  • low levels of platelets in your blood.



To make sure you can safely take hydroxyurea, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:



  • bone marrow suppression;




  • HIV or AIDS;



  • liver disease;

  • kidney disease; or


  • if you are receiving chemotherapy or radiation.




FDA pregnancy category D. Do not use hydroxyurea if you are pregnant. It could harm the unborn baby. Use effective birth control, and tell your doctor if you become pregnant during treatment. This medication may affect fertility (your ability to have children), whether you are a man or a woman. Hydroxyurea can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. You should not breast-feed while you are taking hydroxyurea. Older adults may be more likely to have side effects from this medicine.

How should I take hydroxyurea?


Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label. Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results.


Drink 8 to 10 glasses of liquid per day while you are taking hydroxyurea. You may take the medicine with or without food.

Hydroxyurea is either taken once per day or once every third day, depending on the condition being treated. On each of your dosing days, take the medicine at the same time of day. Your doctor may also want you to take a folic acid supplement. Follow your doctor's instructions very carefully.


Wash your hands before and after you handle a hydroxyurea capsule or the bottle that contains the pills. For best protection, wear disposable gloves when handling the pills. Do not open the hydroxyurea capsule. Do not use a pill that has been accidentally opened or broken. The medicine from an open capsule can be dangerous if it gets in your eyes, mouth, or nose, or on your skin. If this occurs, wash your skin with soap and water or rinse your eyes with water.

If any powder from an open capsule is spilled, wipe it up at once with a damp paper towel and throw the towel away in a sealed plastic bag where children and pets cannot get to it.


Hydroxyurea can lower blood cells that help your body fight infections. This can make it easier for you to bleed from an injury or get sick from being around others who are ill.


To make sure this medication is helping your condition and not causing harmful effects, your blood will need to be tested often. Your treatments may be delayed based on the results of these tests. Do not miss any follow-up visits to your doctor.


Use hydroxyurea regularly to get the most benefit. Get your prescription refilled before you run out of medicine completely.


Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.

Overdose symptoms may include drowsiness, mouth sores, and swelling with pain and purple discoloration in your hands and feet.


What should I avoid while taking hydroxyurea?


Do not handle hydroxyurea pills or the medicine bottle without skin protection (disposable gloves).


Avoid being near people who are sick or have infections. Tell your doctor at once if you develop signs of infection.


Hydroxyurea side effects


Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat. Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:

  • fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms, sores in your mouth and throat;




  • easy bruising, unusual bleeding (nose, mouth, vagina, or rectum), purple or red pinpoint spots under your skin;




  • pale skin, feeling light-headed or short of breath, rapid heart rate, trouble concentrating;

Hydroxyurea Dosing Information


Usual Adult Dose for Solid Tumors:

Solid Tumors:
Intermittent Therapy: 80 mg/kg administered orally as a single dose every third day.

Continuous Therapy: 20 to 30 mg/kg administered orally as a single dose daily.

Concomitant Therapy with Irradiation: Carcinoma of the head and neck: 80 mg/kg administered orally as a single dose every third day.

Administration of hydroxyurea should be begun at least seven days before initiation of irradiation and continued during radiotherapy as well as indefinitely afterwards provided that the patient may be kept under adequate observation and there is no evidence of unusual or severe reactions.

Pain or discomfort from inflammation of the mucous membranes at the irradiated site (mucositis) is usually controlled by measures such as topical anesthetics and orally administered analgesics. If the reaction is severe, hydroxyurea therapy may be temporarily interrupted; if it is extremely severe, irradiation dosage may, in addition, be temporarily postponed. However, it has rarely been necessary to terminate these therapies.

Severe gastric distress, such as nausea, vomiting, and anorexia, resulting from combined therapy may usually be controlled by temporary interruption of hydroxyurea administration.

Usual Adult Dose for Sickle Cell Anemia:

Initial Dose: 15 mg/kg (10-20 mg/kg) once a day. The dose may be increased in 5 mg/kg/day increments every 12 weeks to a maximum dose of 35 mg/kg/day.

Usual Adult Dose for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia:

Resistant Chronic Myelocytic Leukemia: Until the intermittent therapy regimen has been evaluated, continuous therapy at 20 to 30 mg/kg administered orally as a single dose daily is recommended.

An adequate trial period for determining the antineoplastic effectiveness of hydroxyurea is six weeks of therapy. When there is regression in tumor size or arrest in tumor growth, therapy should be continued indefinitely.

Therapy should be interrupted if the white blood cell count drops below 2500/mm3, or the platelet count below 100,000/mm3. In these cases, the counts should be rechecked after three days, and therapy resumed when the counts rise significantly toward normal values. Since the hematopoietic rebound is prompt, it is usually necessary to omit only a few doses. If prompt rebound has not occurred during combined hydroxyurea tablets and irradiation therapy, irradiation may also be interrupted. However, the need for postponement of irradiation has been rare. Radiotherapy has usually been continued using the recommended dosage and technique. If severe anemia occurs, it should be corrected without interrupting hydroxyurea therapy. Because hematopoiesis may be compromised by extensive irradiation or by other antineoplastic agents, it is recommended that hydroxyurea be administered cautiously to patients who have recently received extensive radiation therapy or chemotherapy with other cytotoxic drugs.

Pain or discomfort from inflammation of the mucous membranes at the irradiated site (mucositis) is usually controlled by measures such as topical anesthetics and orally administered analgesics. If the reaction is severe, hydroxyurea therapy may be temporarily interrupted; if it is extremely severe, irradiation dosage may, in addition, be temporarily postponed. However, it has rarely been necessary to terminate these therapies.

Severe gastric distress, such as nausea, vomiting, and anorexia, resulting from combined therapy may usually be controlled by temporary interruption of hydroxyurea administration.


What other drugs will affect hydroxyurea?


Some medicines can increase your risk of certain side effects while taking hydroxyurea. Tell your doctor if you are also using:



  • didanosine (Videx);




  • stavudine (Zerit); or




  • an interferon such as Actimmune, Alferon, Avonex, Betaseron, Extavia, Infergen, Intron, Rebetron, Rebif, or Roferon.



This list is not complete and other drugs may interact with hydroxyurea. Tell your doctor about all medications you use. This includes prescription, over-the-counter, vitamin, and herbal products. Do not start a new medication without telling your doctor.
