Adult Indications and Dosage

FDA-Labeled Indications and Dosage (Adult)

Indications

Spinosad Topical Suspension is indicated for the topical treatment of head lice infestation in patients four (4) years of age and older.

1.2 Adjunctive Measures Spinosad Topical Suspension should be used in the context of an overall lice management program:

Wash (in hot water) or dry-clean all recently worn clothing, hats, used bedding and towels. Wash personal care items such as combs, brushes and hair clips in hot water A fine-tooth comb or special nit comb may be used to remove dead lice and nits.

Dosage

For topical use only. Spinosad Topical Suspension is not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.

Shake bottle well. Apply sufficient Spinosad Topical Suspension to cover dry scalp, then apply to dry hair. Depending on hair length, apply up to 120 mL (one bottle) to adequately cover scalp and hair. Leave on for 10 minutes, then thoroughly rinse off Spinosad Topical Suspension with warm water. If live lice are seen 7 days after the first treatment, a second treatment should be applied. Avoid contact with eyes.

Adverse Reactions

Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical studies are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical studies of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical studies of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.

Spinosad Topical Suspension was studied in two randomized, active-controlled trials (N=552) in subjects with head lice; the results are presented in Table 1.

Other less common reactions (less than 1% but more than 0.1%) were application site dryness, application site exfoliation, alopecia, and dry skin.

Systemic safety was not assessed in pediatric subjects under 4 years of age as laboratory parameters were not monitored in these controlled studies.

Pregnancy

Pregnancy Category (FDA): B

  • There are no adequate and well-controlled studies with Spinosad Topical Suspension in pregnant women. Studies in humans did not assess for the absorption of benzyl alcohol contained in Spinosad Topical Suspension. Reproduction studies conducted in rats and rabbits were negative for teratogenic effects. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.

Systemic embryofetal development studies were conducted in rats and rabbits. Oral doses of 10, 50 and 200 mg/kg/day spinosad were administered during the period of organogenesis (gestational days 6 – 15) to pregnant female rats. No teratogenic effects were noted at any dose. Maternal toxicity occurred at 200 mg/kg/day. Oral doses of 2.5, 10, and 50 mg/kg/day spinosad were administered during the period of organogenesis (gestational days 7 – 19) to pregnant female rabbits.

Pregnancy Category (AUS):

  • Australian Drug Evaluation Committee (ADEC) Pregnancy Category

There is no Australian Drug Evaluation Committee (ADEC) guidance on usage of Spinosad in women who are pregnant.

Labor and Delivery

There is no FDA guidance on use of Spinosad during labor and delivery.

Nursing Mothers

Spinosad, the active ingredient in Spinosad Topical Suspension is not systemically absorbed; and therefore, will not be present in human milk. However, Spinosad Topical Suspension contains benzyl alcohol, which may be systemically absorbed through the skin, and the amount of benzyl alcohol excreted in human milk with use of Spinosad Topical Suspension is unknown. Caution should be exercised when Spinosad Topical Suspension is administered to a lactating woman. A lactating woman may choose to pump and discard breast milk for 8 hours (5 half-lives of benzyl alcohol) after use to avoid infant ingestion of benzyl alcohol.

Pediatric Use

The safety and effectiveness of Spinosad Topical Suspension have been established in pediatric patients 4 years of age and older with active head lice infestation [see CLINICAL STUDIES (14)].

Safety in pediatric patients below the age of 4 years has not been established. Spinosad Topical Suspension is not recommended in pediatric patients below the age of 6 months because of the potential for increased systemic absorption due to a high ratio of skin surface area to body mass and the potential for an immature skin barrier.

Spinosad Topical Suspension contains benzyl alcohol which has been associated with serious adverse reactions and death in neonates and low birth-weight infants. The "gasping syndrome" (characterized by central nervous system depression, metabolic acidosis, gasping respirations, and high levels of benzyl alcohol and its metabolites found in the blood and urine) has been associated with benzyl alcohol dosages >99 mg/kg/day in neonates and low-birthweight infants. Additional symptoms may include gradual neurological deterioration, seizures, intracranial hemorrhage, hematologic abnormalities, skin breakdown, hepatic and renal failure, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiovascular collapse.

The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which toxicity may occur is not known. Premature and low-birthweight infants, as well as patients receiving high dosages, may be more likely to develop toxicity
