6 ADVERSE REACTIONS Most common adverse reactions (≥5% placebo) are thirst, dry mouth, asthenia, constipation, pollakiuria or polyuria, and hyperglycemia ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Annora Pharma Private Limited at 1-866-495-1995 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 ( www.fda.gov/medwatch) . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reactions rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The adverse event information from clinical trials does, however, provide a basis for identifying the adverse events that appear to be related to drug use and for approximating rates. In multiple-dose, placebo-controlled trials, 607 hyponatremic patients (serum sodium 1% in tolvaptan-treated patients.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Avoid concomitant use with: • Moderate CYP3A inhibitors ( 7.1 ) • Strong CYP3A inducers ( 7.1 ) • V 2 -receptor antagonists ( 7.3 ) Monitor serum potassium during concomitant therapy with ( 7.2 ): • Angiotensin receptor blockers • Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors • Potassium sparing diuretics 7.1 CYP3A Inhibitors and Inducers Strong CYP3A Inhibitors Tolvaptan's AUC was 5.4 times as large and C max was 3.5 times as large after co-administration of tolvaptan and 200 mg ketoconazole [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Larger doses of the strong CYP3A inhibitor would be expected to produce larger increases in tolvaptan exposure. Concomitant use of tolvaptan with strong CYP3A inhibitors is contraindicated [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors A substantial increase in the exposure to tolvaptan would be expected when tolvaptan is co-administered with moderate CYP3A inhibitors. Avoid co-administration of tolvaptan with moderate CYP3A inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 )]. Patients should avoid grapefruit juice beverages while taking tolvaptan [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Strong CYP3A Inducers Co-administration of tolvaptan with strong CYP3A inducers reduces exposure to tolvaptan [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Avoid concomitant use of tolvaptan with strong CYP3A inducers. 7.2 Angiotensin Receptor Blockers, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors and Potassium Sparing Diuretics Although specific interaction studies were not performed, in clinical studies, tolvaptan was used concomitantly with beta-blockers, angiotensin receptor blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and potassium sparing diuretics. Adverse reactions of hyperkalemia were approximately 1 to 2% higher when tolvaptan was administered with angiotensin receptor blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and potassium sparing diuretics compared to administration of these medications with placebo. Serum potassium levels should be monitored during concomitant drug therapy. 7.3 V 2 -Receptor Agonist As a V 2 -receptor antagonist, tolvaptan may interfere with the V 2 -agonist activity of desmopressin (dDAVP). Avoid concomitant use of tolvaptan with a V 2 -agonist.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Pregnancy: May cause fetal harm ( 8.1 ) Lactation: Breastfeeding not recommended ( 8.2 ) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data with tolvaptan tablets use in pregnant women are insufficient to determine if there is a drug associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes. In embryo-fetal development studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received oral tolvaptan during organogenesis. At maternally non-toxic doses, tolvaptan did not cause any developmental toxicity in rats or in rabbits at exposures approximately 4- and 1-times, respectively, the human exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 90/30 mg. However, effects on embryo-fetal development occurred in both species at maternally toxic doses. In rats, reduced fetal weights and delayed fetal ossification occurred at 17-times the human exposure. In rabbits, increased abortions, embryo-fetal death, fetal microphthalmia, open eyelids, cleft palate, brachymelia and skeletal malformations occurred at approximately 3-times the human exposure (see Data). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to the fetus. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in the U.S. general population is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies, respectively. Data Animal Data Oral administration of tolvaptan during the period of organogenesis in Sprague-Dawley rats produced no evidence of teratogenesis at doses up to 100 mg/kg/day. Lower body weights and delayed ossification were seen at 1,000 mg/kg, which is approximately 17-times the exposure in humans at the 90/30 mg dose (AUC 24h 6,570 h·ng/mL). The fetal effects are likely secondary to maternal toxicity (decreased food intake and low body weights). In a prenatal and postnatal study in rats, tolvaptan had no effect on physical development, reflex function, learning ability or reproductive performance at doses up to 1,000 mg/kg/day. In New Zealand White rabbits, placental transfer was demonstrated with C max values in the yolk sac fluid approximating 22.7% of the value in maternal rabbit serum. In embryo-fetal studies, teratogenicity (microphthalmia, embryo-fetal mortality, cleft palate, brachymelia and fused phalanx) was evident in rabbits at 1,000 mg/kg (approximately 3 times the exposure at the 90/30 mg dose). Body weights and food consumption were lower in dams at all doses, equivalent to 0.6 to 3- times the human exposure at the 90/30 mg dose. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of tolvaptan in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Tolvaptan is present in rat milk. When a drug is present in animal milk, it is possible that the drug will be present in human milk, but relative levels may vary (see Data) . Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including liver toxicity, electrolyte abnormalities (e.g., hypernatremia), hypotension, and volume depletion in breastfed infants, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with tolvaptan tablets. Data In lactating rats administration of radiolabeled tolvaptan, lacteal radioactivity concentrations reached the highest level at 8 hours after administration and then decreased gradually with time with a half-life of 27.3 hours. The level of activity in milk ranged from 1.5- to 15.8-fold those in blood over the period of 72 hours post-dose. In a prenatal and postnatal study in rats, maternal toxicity was noted at 100 mg/kg/day or higher (≥4.4 times the human exposure at the 90/30 mg dose). Increased perinatal death and decreased body weight of the offspring were observed during the lactation period and after weaning at approximately 17.3 times the human exposure at the 90/30 mg dose. 8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of tolva …

12.1 Mechanism of Action Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin V 2 -receptor antagonist with an affinity for the V 2 -receptor that is 1.8 times that of native arginine vasopressin (AVP). Tolvaptan affinity for the V 2 -receptor is 29 times that for the V 1a -receptor. Decreased binding of vasopressin to the V 2 -receptor in the kidney lowers adenylate cyclase activity resulting in a decrease in intracellular adenosine 3′, 5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) concentrations. Decreased cAMP concentrations prevent aquaporin 2 containing vesicles from fusing with the plasma membrane, which in turn causes an increase in urine water excretion, an increase in free water clearance (aquaresis) and a decrease in urine osmolality. In human ADPKD cyst epithelial cells, tolvaptan inhibited AVPstimulated in vitro cyst growth and chloride-dependent fluid secretion into cysts. In animal models, decreased cAMP concentrations were associated with decreases in the rate of growth of total kidney volume and the rate of formation and enlargement of kidney cysts. Tolvaptan metabolites have no or weak antagonist activity for human V 2 -receptors compared with tolvaptan.

10 OVERDOSAGE Single oral doses up to 480 mg (4 times the maximum recommended daily dose) and multiple doses up to 300 mg once daily for 5 days have been well tolerated in trials in healthy subjects. There is no specific antidote for tolvaptan intoxication. The signs and symptoms of an acute overdose can be anticipated to be those of excessive pharmacologic effect: a rise in serum sodium concentration, polyuria, thirst, and dehydration/hypovolemia. No mortality was observed in rats or dogs following single oral doses of 2,000 mg/kg (maximum feasible dose). A single oral dose of 2,000 mg/kg was lethal in mice, and symptoms of toxicity in affected mice included decreased locomotor activity, staggering gait, tremor and hypothermia. In patients with suspected tolvaptan tablets overdosage, assessment of vital signs, electrolyte concentrations, ECG and fluid status is recommended. Continue replacement of water and electrolytes until aquaresis abates. Dialysis may not be effective in removing tolvaptan tablets because of its high binding affinity for human plasma protein (greater than 98%).
