SELECT IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Contraindications

BAQSIMI is contraindicated in patients with pheochromocytoma because of risk of substantial increase in blood pressure , insulinoma because of risk of hypoglycemia, and known hypersensitivity to glucagon or to any of the excipients in BAQSIMI. Allergic reactions have been reported with glucagon and include anaphylactic shock with breathing difficulties and hypotension.

Indications and Important Safety Information

Clinical use:
BAQSIMI has not been studied in pediatric patients less than 4 years old.

Limited clinical trial experience has not identified difference in responses between elderly (≥65 years of age) and younger patients.

Contraindications:

  • Hypersensitivity to glucagon or to any ingredient in the formulation or container
  • Pheochromocytoma
  • Insulinoma

 

Most serious warnings and precautions:
Lack of response: BAQSIMI should be given only in patients where impaired consciousness precludes oral carbohydrates. After intranasal administration of BAQSIMI, the patient will normally respond within 15 minutes. If the patient does not respond within 15 minutes, intravenous glucose must be administered as soon as IV access can be established.

States of starvation, adrenal insufficiency or chronic hypoglycemia: Because glucagon is of little or no help in these cases, intravenous glucose should be used for the treatment of hypoglycemia in these conditions.

Other relevant warnings and precautions:

  • Cardiovascular effects
  • Driving and operating machinery
  • Pheochromocytoma
  • Insulinoma
  • Sensitivity and resistance to glucagon
  • Pregnant women
  • Breast-feeding
  • Pediatrics (<4 years of age)
  • Geriatrics (≥65 years of age)
  • Use in patients with Type 2 diabetes taking sulfonylureas
  • Use with alcohol
  • Monitoring and laboratory tests
