    • Toxic colitis or toxic megacolon
    • Gastric retention
    • Ileus
    • Hypersensitivity to any component of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.8)]
  • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

    5.1 Serious Fluid and Serum Chemistry Abnormalities

    Advise patients to hydrate adequately before, during, and after the use of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution. Use caution in patients with congestive heart failure when replacing fluids. If a patient develops significant vomiting or signs of dehydration including signs of orthostatic hypotension after taking PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution, consider performing post-colonoscopy lab tests (electrolytes, creatinine, and BUN) and treat accordingly. Fluid and electrolyte disturbances can lead to serious adverse events including cardiac arrhythmias, seizures and renal impairment. Correct fluid and electrolyte abnormalities before treatment with PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution.

    In addition, use caution when prescribing PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution for patients who have conditions, or who are using medications, that increase the risk for fluid and electrolyte disturbances or may increase the risk of adverse events of seizure, arrhythmias, and renal impairment [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1)] .

    5.2 Cardiac Arrhythmias

    There have been rare reports of serious arrhythmias associated with the use of ionic osmotic laxative products for bowel preparation. Use caution when prescribing PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution for patients at increased risk of arrhythmias (e.g., patients with a history of prolonged QT, uncontrolled arrhythmias, recent myocardial infarction, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, or cardiomyopathy). Consider pre-dose and post-colonoscopy ECGs in patients at increased risk of serious cardiac arrhythmias.

    5.3 Seizures

    There have been reports of generalized tonic-clonic seizures and/or loss of consciousness associated with use of bowel preparation products in patients with no prior history of seizures. The seizure cases were associated with electrolyte abnormalities (e.g., hyponatremia, hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, and hypomagnesemia) and low serum osmolality. The neurologic abnormalities resolved with correction of fluid and electrolyte abnormalities.

    Use caution when prescribing PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution for patients with a history of seizures and in patients at increased risk of seizure, such as patients taking medications that lower the seizure threshold (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants), patients withdrawing from alcohol or benzodiazepines, or patients with known or suspected hyponatremia [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1)] .

    5.4 Renal Impairment

    Use caution when prescribing PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution for patients with impaired renal function or patients taking concomitant medications that may affect renal function (such as diuretics, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1)] . Advise these patients of the importance of adequate hydration and consider performing baseline and post-colonoscopy laboratory tests (electrolytes, creatinine, and BUN) in these patients [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6)] .

    5.5 Colonic Mucosal Ulcerations and Ischemic Colitis

    Administration of osmotic laxative products may produce colonic mucosal aphthous ulcerations, and there have been reports of more serious cases of ischemic colitis requiring hospitalization. Concurrent use of stimulant laxatives and PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution may increase this risk [see Drug Interactions ( 7.3)] . Consider the potential for mucosal ulcerations resulting from the bowel preparation when interpreting colonoscopy findings in patients with known or suspect inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

    5.6 Use in Patients with Significant Gastrointestinal Disease

    If gastrointestinal obstruction or perforation is suspected, perform appropriate diagnostic studies to rule out these conditions before administering PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution [see Contraindications ( 4)] . Use with caution in patients with severe active ulcerative colitis.

    5.7 Aspiration

    Use with caution in patients with impaired gag reflex, unconscious, or semiconscious patients, and patients prone to regurgitation or aspiration. Observe these patients during administration of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution, especially if it is administered via nasogastric tube.

    Do not combine PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution with starch-based thickeners [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1)] . Polyethylene glycol (PEG), a component of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution, when mixed with starch-thickened liquids reduces the viscosity of the starch-thickened liquid. When a PEG-based product used for another indication was mixed in starch-based pre-thickened liquids used in patients with dysphagia, thinning of the liquid occurred and cases of choking and potential aspiration were reported.

    5.8 Hypersensitivity Reactions

    PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution contains PEG and may cause serious hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis, angioedema, rash, urticaria, and pruritus [see Adverse Reactions ( 6)] . Inform patients of the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis and instruct them to seek immediate medical care should signs and symptoms occur.

  • 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

    The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

    • Renal impairment [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4)]
    • Colonic mucosal ulcerations and ischemic colitis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5)]
    • Patients with significant gastrointestinal disease [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6)]
    • Aspiration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7)]

    The following adverse reactions associated with the use of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution were identified in clinical trials or postmarketing reports. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to estimate their frequency, reliably, or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

    • Cardiovascular: arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation, peripheral edema, asystole, and acute pulmonary edema after aspiration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2)] .
    • Nervous system: tremor, seizure [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3)]
    • Hypersensitivity: Urticaria/rash, pruritus, dermatitis, rhinorrhea, dyspnea, chest and throat tightness, fever, angioedema, anaphylaxis and anaphylactic shock [see Contraindications ( 4), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.8)]
    • Gastrointestinal: Nausea, abdominal fullness and bloating are the most common adverse reactions (occurred in up to 50% of patients). Other less common adverse reactions include: abdominal cramps, vomiting, “butterfly-like” infiltrates on chest X-ray after vomiting and aspirating PEG, anal irritation, and upper GI bleeding from Mallory-Weiss Tear, esophageal perforation [usually with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)].
  • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS

    7.1 Drugs that May Increase Risks Due to Fluid and Electrolyte Abnormalities

    Use caution when prescribing PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution for patients with conditions and/or who are using medications that increase the risk for fluid and electrolyte disturbances or may increase the risk of renal impairment, seizure, arrhythmias, and prolonged QT in the setting of fluid and electrolyte abnormalities [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4)] . Consider additional patient evaluations as appropriate.

    7.2 Potential for Reduced Drug Absorption

    PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution can reduce the absorption of other administered drugs. Administer oral medications within one hour before the start of administration of PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1)] .

    7.3 Stimulant Laxatives

    Concurrent use of stimulant laxatives and PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution may increase the risk of mucosal ulceration or ischemic colitis. Avoid use of stimulant laxatives (e.g., bisacodyl, sodium picosulfate) while taking PEG-3350 and Electrolytes for Oral Solution [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5)] .
