OSMITROL is indicated for: • The reduction of intracranial pressure and treatment of cerebral edema; • The reduction of elevated intraocular pressure. OSMITROL is an osmotic diuretic, indicated for the reduction of: • intracranial pressure and treatment of cerebral edema. ( 1 ) • elevated intraocular pressure. ( 1 )

• Administration Instructions : • For intravenous infusion preferably into a large central vein. • Prior to administration, evaluate renal, cardiac and pulmonary status, and correct fluid and electrolyte imbalances
• Recommended Dosage : • The dosage, concentration and rate of administration depend on the age, weight and condition of the patient, including fluid requirement, urinary output and concomitant therapy. • Reduction of Intracranial Pressure : 0.25 gram/kg administered every 6 to 8 hours as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes. • Reduction of Intraocular Pressure : 1.5 to 2 grams/kg of a 15% or 20% w/v solution as a single dose administered intravenously over at least 30 minutes
• Important Preparation and Administration Instructions • OSMITROL is for intravenous infusion preferably into a large central vein [see Warnings and Precautions , Description ]. • Prior to administration of OSMITROL, evaluate renal, cardiac and pulmonary status of the patient and correct fluid and electrolyte imbalances [see Dosage and Administration ]. • Do not administer OSMITROL simultaneously with blood products through the same administration set because of the possibility of pseudoagglutination or hemolysis
• Preparation 1
• Tear overwrap down side at slit and remove solution container. 2
• Visually inspect the container
• Do not administer unless solution is clear and seal is intact. o If the outlet port protector is damaged, detached, or not present, discard container as solution path sterility may be impaired. …

• OSMITROL is approved for use in the pediatric population for the reduction of intracranial and intraocular pressure
• Studies have not defined the optimal dose of OSMITROL in the pediatric population
• The safety profile for mannitol use
• In pediatric patients is similar to adults at dosages described in labeling. …

Mannitol is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney and the risk of adverse reactions to this drug may be greater in elderly patients with impaired renal function. Evaluate the renal, cardiac and pulmonary status of the patient and correct fluid and electrolyte imbalances prior to administration of OSMITROL [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3 , 5.4 , 5.5 )].

Inform patients or caregivers of the following risks of OSMITROL: • Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] • Renal Failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] • CNS Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] • Fluid and Electrolyte Imbalances, Hyperosmolarity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] • Infusion Site Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ]

OSMITROL is contraindicated in patients with: • Known hypersensitivity to mannitol [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] • Anuria [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] • Severe hypovolemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] • Pre-existing severe pulmonary vascular congestion or pulmonary edema [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ] • Active intracranial bleeding except during craniotomy • Known hypersensitivity to mannitol. ( 4 , 5.1 ) • Anuria. ( 4 , 5.2 ) • Severe hypovolemia. …

• Nephrotoxic Drugs and Diuretics : May increase the risk of renal failure; avoid concomitant use. ( 7.1 , 7.2 ) • Neurotoxic Drugs : May potentiate CNS toxicity of mannitol; avoid concomitant use. ( 7.3 ) • Drugs Affected by Electrolyte Imbalances : May result in cardiac adverse reactions; monitor serum electrolytes and discontinue OSMITROL if cardiac status worsens. ( 7.4 ) • Renally Eliminated Agents : Concomitant use may decrease the effectiveness of agents that undergo significant renal elimination. However, concomitant use of mannitol and lithium may increase risk of lithium toxicity. If concomitant use is necessary, frequently monitor lithium concentrations and for signs of toxicity. …

• Hypersensitivity Reactions, including anaphylaxis : Stop infusion immediately if hypersensitivity reactions develop. ( 5.1 ) • Renal Complications Including Renal Failure : Risk factors include pre-existing renal failure, concomitant use of nephrotoxic drugs or other diuretics. Avoid use of nephrotoxic drugs. Discontinue OSMITROL if renal function worsens. ( 5.2 , 8.6 ) • Central Nervous System (CNS) Toxicity : Confusion, lethargy and coma may occur during or after infusion. Concomitant neurotoxic drugs may potentiate toxicity. Avoid use of neurotoxic drugs. Discontinue OSMITROL if CNS toxicity develops. …

The following adverse reactions from voluntary reports or clinical studies have been reported with OSMITROL. Because many of these reactions were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. • Hypersensitivity reactions : cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis, hypotension, dyspnea, hypertension, pyrexia, chills, sweating, cough, musculoskeletal stiffness, myalgia, urticarial/rash, pruritus, generalized pain, discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and headache. …

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary The available case report data with mannitol over decades of use have not identified a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Mannitol crosses the placenta and may cause fluid shifts that could potentially result in adverse effects in the fetus (see Data) . …

Signs and symptoms of overdose with OSMITROL include renal failure and AKI, hypo/hypervolemia, hyperosmolarity and electrolyte imbalances, CNS toxicity (e.g., coma, seizures), some of which can be fatal [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3 , 5.4 )]. Management of overdosage with OSMITROL is symptomatic and supportive. Discontinue the infusion and institute appropriate corrective measures with particular attention to renal, cardiac and pulmonary systems . Correct fluid and electrolyte imbalances. …

Tómala en cuanto te acuerdes, salvo que falte poco para la siguiente. En ese caso, sáltate la olvidada. Nunca tomes dos dosis a la vez para compensar. Revisa tu prospecto, porque algunos medicamentos son distintos.
