Dosage & Administration

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Obtain liver tests prior to initiation. OSENI may be taken with or without food. ( 2.1 ) Individualize the starting dose of OSENI based on the patient’s current regimen and concurrent medical condition but do not exceed a daily dose of alogliptin 25 mg and pioglitazone 45 mg. ( 2.2 ) The recommended starting dosage in patients with NYHA Class I or II congestive heart failure is 25 mg of alogliptin and 15 mg of pioglitazone ( 2.4 ) Prior to initiation, assess renal function with creatinine clearance (CrCl) ( 2.3 ) Mild renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CrCl] ≥60 mL/min): same as the recommended dosage in patients with normal renal function. Moderate renal impairment (CrCl ≥30 to <60 mL/min): 12.5 mg of alogliptin and 30 mg of pioglitazone once daily. Severe renal impairment (CrCl ≥15 to <30 mL/min) or ESRD (CrCl <15 mL/min or requiring hemodialysis): not recommended. 2.1 Important Dosage and Administration Information Obtain liver tests (serum alanine and aspartate aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase, and total bilirubin) prior to initiating OSENI [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] . Take OSENI orally once daily. Do not split tablets. OSENI m

Contraindications

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS OSENI is contraindicated in patients with: Established NYHA Class III or IV heart failure at the time of OSENI initiation [see Boxed Warning ] . A history of serious hypersensitivity reaction to alogliptin, pioglitazone, or any of the excipients in OSENI. Reactions such as anaphylaxis, angioedema and severe cutaneous adverse reactions have been reported [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) , Adverse reactions (6.2) ] .

Drug Interactions

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP2C8 inhibitors (e.g., gemfibrozil) increase pioglitazone concentrations. Limit the pioglitazone dose to 15 mg daily. ( 7.2 ) CYP2C8 inducers (e.g., rifampin) may decrease pioglitazone concentrations. ( 7.3 ) Topiramate may decrease pioglitazone concentrations. ( 7.4 ) 7.1 Insulin Secretagogues and Insulin Insulin and insulin secretagogues are known to cause hypoglycemia. Coadministration of OSENI with an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea) or insulin may require lower dosages of the insulin secretagogue and insulin to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ] . 7.2 Strong CYP2C8 Inhibitors An inhibitor of CYP2C8 (e.g., gemfibrozil) significantly increases the exposure (area under the concentration-time curve [AUC]) and half-life of pioglitazone. Therefore, the maximum recommended dosage of OSENI is 25 mg of alogliptin and 15 mg of pioglitazone once daily if used in combination with gemfibrozil or other strong CYP2C8 inhibitors [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . 7.3 CYP2C8 Inducers An inducer of CYP2C8 (e.g., rifampin) may significantly decrease the exposure (AUC) of pioglitazone.
