What should I talk to my health care provider before I take INVOKAMET?

How should I use INVOKAMET?

INVOKAMET (canagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride) is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when treatment with both canagliflozin and metformin is appropriate.

Individualize based on the patient's current regimen ()

Take one INVOKAMET tablet twice daily with meals, recommended starting dose of canagliflozin is 50 mg twice daily and metformin 500 mg twice daily ()

Canagliflozin dose can be increased to 150 mg twice daily in patients tolerating canagliflozin 50 mg twice daily who have eGFR of 60 mL/min/1.73 m or greater and require additional glycemic control. Do not exceed a total daily canagliflozin dose of 300 mg ()

Gradually escalate metformin dose to reduce the gastrointestinal side effects while not exceeding total daily dose of 2000 mg ()

Assess renal function before initiating and periodically thereafter ()

INVOKAMET is contraindicated in patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 45 mL/min/1.73 m ()

Limit the dose of canagliflozin component to 50 mg twice daily in patients with an eGFR of 45 to less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m ()

INVOKAMET may need to be discontinued at time of, or prior to, iodinated contrast imaging procedures ()

What might happen if I take too much INVOKAMET?

In the event of an overdose with INVOKAMET, contact the Poison Control Center. Employ the usual supportive measures (e.g., remove unabsorbed material from the gastrointestinal tract, employ clinical monitoring, and institute supportive treatment) as dictated by the patient's clinical status. Canagliflozin was negligibly removed during a 4-hour hemodialysis session. Canagliflozin is not expected to be dialyzable by peritoneal dialysis. Metformin is dialyzable with a clearance of up to 170 mL/min under good hemodynamic conditions. Therefore, hemodialysis may be useful partly for removal of accumulated metformin from patients in whom INVOKAMET overdosage is suspected.

How should I store and handle INVOKAMET?

Store olanzapine orally disintegrating tablets at controlled room temperature, 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) [ USP]. The USP defines controlled room temperature as a temperature maintained thermostatically that encompasses the usual and customary working environment of 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F); that results in a mean kinetic temperature calculated to be not more than 25°C; and that allows for excursions between 15° and 30°C (59° and 86°F) that are experienced in pharmacies, hospitals, and warehouses.Protect olanzapine orally disintegrating tablets from light and moisture.Store olanzapine orally disintegrating tablets at controlled room temperature, 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) [ USP].

Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions

There have been post-marketing cases of metformin-associated lactic acidosis, including fatal cases. These cases had a subtle onset and were accompanied by nonspecific symptoms such as malaise, myalgias, abdominal pain, respiratory distress, or increased somnolence; however, hypothermia, hypotension and resistant bradyarrhythmias have occurred with severe acidosis. Metformin-associated lactic acidosis was characterized by elevated blood lactate concentrations (>5 mmol/Liter), anion gap acidosis (without evidence of ketonuria or ketonemia), and an increased lactate:pyruvate ratio; metformin plasma levels generally >5 mcg/mL. Metformin decreases liver uptake of lactate increasing lactate blood levels which may increase the risk of lactic acidosis, especially in patients at risk.

If metformin-associated lactic acidosis is suspected, general supportive measures should be instituted promptly in a hospital setting, along with immediate discontinuation of INVOKAMET. In INVOKAMET-treated patients with a diagnosis or strong suspicion of lactic acidosis, prompt hemodialysis is recommended to correct the acidosis and remove accumulated metformin (metformin hydrochloride is dialyzable, with a clearance of up to 170 mL/minute under good hemodynamic conditions). Hemodialysis has often resulted in reversal of symptoms and recovery.

Educate patients and their families about the symptoms of lactic acidosis and if these symptoms occur instruct them to discontinue INVOKAMET and report these symptoms to their healthcare provider.

For each of the known and possible risk factors for metformin-associated lactic acidosis, recommendations to reduce the risk of and manage metformin-associated lactic acidosis are provided below:
