`
`IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
`
`CONTRAINDICATIONS
`• The use of XYWAV or XYREM in combination with sedative hypnotics is contraindicated.
`• The use of XYWAV or XYREM in combination with alcohol is contraindicated.
`• XYWAV and XYREM are contraindicated in patients with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency.
`
`WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`CNS Depression
`• XYWAV and XYREM are CNS depressants. Concurrent use of XYWAV or XYREM with other CNS
`depressants, including but not limited to opioid analgesics; benzodiazepines; sedating antidepressants,
`antipsychotics, or anti-epileptics; general anesthetics; muscle relaxants; and/or illicit CNS depressants, may
`increase the risk of respiratory depression, hypotension, profound sedation, syncope, and death.
` – If use of these CNS depressants in combination with XYWAV or XYREM is required, dose reduction or
`discontinuation of one or more CNS depressants (including XYWAV or XYREM) should be considered.
` – If short-term use of an opioid (e.g., post- or perioperative) is required, interruption of treatment with
`XYWAV or XYREM should be considered.
`• Patients who have sleep apnea or compromised respiratory function may be at a higher risk of developing
`respiratory depression, loss of consciousness, coma, and death with XYWAV or XYREM use.
`Healthcare providers should caution patients/caregivers against hazardous activities requiring complete
`mental alertness or motor coordination (e.g., driving) within the first 6 hours of dosing or after first initiating
`treatment until certain that XYWAV or XYREM do not affect the patient adversely.
`Abuse and Misuse
`• XYWAV and XYREM are Schedule III controlled substances.
`• The active moiety of XYWAV and XYREM is oxybate, also known as gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB),
`a Schedule I controlled substance. Abuse of illicit GHB, either alone or in combination with other CNS
`depressants, is associated with CNS adverse events, including seizure, respiratory depression, decreases
`in the level of consciousness, coma, and death. Illicit GHB has also been associated with drug-facilitated
`sexual assault.
`• The rapid onset of sedation, coupled with the amnestic features of XYWAV and XYREM, particularly
`when combined with alcohol, has proven to be dangerous for the voluntary and involuntary user
`(e.g., assault victim).
`• You should carefully evaluate patients for a history of drug abuse and follow such patients closely, observing
`them for signs of misuse or abuse of XYWAV or XYREM (e.g., increase in size or frequency of dosing; reports
`of lost, stolen, or spilled medication; drug-seeking behavior; feigned cataplexy).
