midazolam intranasal (Rx)

Brand and Other Names:Nayzilam

Dosing & Uses

AdultPediatricGeriatric

Dosage Forms & Strengths

intranasal solution: Schedule IV

  • 5mg/0.1mL per single-dose spray

Seizures

Indicated for acute treatment of intermittent, stereotypic episodes of frequent seizure activity (ie, seizure clusters, acute repetitive seizures) that are distinct from a patient’s usual seizure pattern in patients with epilepsy

Initial dose: 5 mg (1 spray) into 1 nostril

Second dose (if needed)

  • An additional 5 mg (1 spray) into the opposite nostril may be administered after 10 minutes if the patient has not responded to the initial dose
  • Do not administer second dose if the patient has breathing trouble or if excessive sedation occurs that is uncharacteristic of the patient during a seizure cluster episode

Maximum dose and frequency

  • Do not use >2 doses per single seizure episode
  • Do not treat more than 1 episode q3days and no more than 5 episodes/month

Dosing Considerations

For patients at increased risk of respiratory depression from benzodiazepines, administration under healthcare professional supervision should be considered before prescribing; this administration may be performed in the absence of a seizure episode

Instruct the individual who will administer midazolam intranasal on how to identify seizure clusters and use the product appropriately

Counsel patients and caregivers to carefully read instructions for use for complete directions on how to properly administer

              Warnings

              Black Box Warnings

              Risks from concomitant use with opioids

              Concomitant use of benzodiazepines and opioids may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death

              Reserve concomitant prescribing of these drugs for use in patients for whom alternative treatment options are inadequate

              Limit dosages and durations to the minimum required

              Follow patients for signs and symptoms of respiratory depression and sedation

              Inform patients and caregivers that potentially fatal additive effects may occur if drug is used with opioids and that such drugs should not be used concomitantly unless supervised by a health care provider

              Prescribers should advise caregivers that they expect to be informed immediately if a patient develops any new findings which are not typical of the patient’s characteristic seizure episode

              Addiction, abuse, and misuse

              On September 2020, FDA addressed serious risks of benzodiazepine addiction, abuse, and misuse, which can lead to overdose and death

              Physical dependence can occur when taken steadily for several days to weeks, even as prescribed

              Stopping abruptly or reducing dosage too quickly can result in withdrawal reactions, including seizures, which can be life-threatening

              Abuse and misuse of benzodiazepines commonly involve concomitant use of other medications, alcohol, and/or illicit substances, which is associated with an increased frequency of serious adverse outcomes; before prescribing and throughout treatment, assess each patient’s risk for abuse, misuse, and addiction

              Assess each patient’s risk prior to prescribing and monitor regularly for the development of these conditions

              Risks of dependence and withdrawal increase with longer treatment duration and higher daily dose; although injection is indicated only for intermittent use, if used more frequently than recommended, abrupt discontinuation or rapid dosage reduction may precipitate acute withdrawal reactions, including seizures, which can be life-threatening; use gradual taper when discontinuing therapy to reduce withdrawal reactions risk

              Contraindications

              Known hypersensitivity

              Acute narrow-angle glaucoma

              Cautions

              Serious cardiorespiratory adverse reactions reported, including respiratory depression, airway obstruction, oxygen desaturation, apnea, respiratory arrest, and/or cardiac arrest, sometimes resulting in death or permanent neurologic injury; danger of hypoventilation, airway obstruction, or apnea is greater in elderly patients and those with chronic disease states or decreased pulmonary reserve

              Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in patients taking these drugs for any indication; pooled analyses of 199 placebo-controlled clinical trials of 11 different AEDs showed ~2 x risk of suicidal thinking or behavior in patients taking AEDs; should suicidal thoughts and behavior emerge during treatment, the prescriber needs to consider whether the emergence of these symptoms may be related to illness being treated

              May impair cognitive function; use associated with high incidence of partial or complete impairment of recall for several hours following dose

              Benzodiazepines can increase intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma; may use in patients with open-angle glaucoma who are controlled with medication; contraindicated with narrow-angle glaucoma

              When midazolam was used for sedation, reactions such as agitation, involuntary movements (including tonic/clonic movements and muscle tremor), hyperactivity, and combativeness reported

              Slower elimination and prolonged drug exposure of midazolam and its metabolites observed in patients with renal or hepatic impairment or congestive heart failure

              Use of drug, particularly in patients at elevated risk of abuse, necessitates counseling about risks and proper use of drug along with monitoring for signs and symptoms of abuse, misuse, and addiction; do not exceed recommended dosing frequency

              Avoid or minimize concomitant use of CNS depressants and other substances associated with abuse, misuse, and addiction (eg, opioid analgesics, stimulants); advise patients on proper disposal of unused drug; if a substance use disorder is suspected, evaluate patient and institute (or refer them for) early treatment, as appropriate

              For patients using treated more frequently than recommended, to reduce risk of withdrawal reactions, use a gradual taper to discontinue therapy (a patient-specific plan should be used to taper the dose)

              Patients at an increased risk of withdrawal adverse reactions after benzodiazepine discontinuation or rapid dosage reduction include those who take higher dosages, and those who have had longer durations of use

              In some cases, benzodiazepine users have developed a protracted withdrawal syndrome with withdrawal symptoms lasting weeks to more than 12 months

              Drug interaction overview

              • Opioids and benzodiazepines: Concomitant use of benzodiazepines (including midazolam intranasal) and opioids may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death; only use in patients for whom alternative treatment options are inadequate; hypotension more likely if patient premedicated with a narcotic
              • CNS depressants: CNS depression reported with coadministration with other CNS depressants (eg, barbiturates, alcohol)
              • CYP3A4 inhibitors: Risk of prolonged sedation if coadministered with moderate or strong CYP3A4 enzyme inhibitors, owing to much higher midazolam exposures
              • CYP3A4 inducers: Midazolam exposure decreased 16-26% if coadministered with strong CYP3A4 inducers and by 8-15% by weak-to-moderate inducers

              Pregnancy & Lactation

              Pregnancy

              There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), during pregnancy; healthcare providers are encouraged to recommend that pregnant women who are taking this drug duringpregnancy enroll in the North American Antiepileptic Drug (NAAED) pregnancy registry by calling 1-888-233-2334 or visiting http://www.aedpregnancyregistry.org

              There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of midazolam intranasal in pregnant women

              Available data suggest benzodiazepines are not associated with marked increases in risk for congenital anomalies

              Clinical considerations

              • Exposure to benzodiazepines during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy or immediately prior to or during childbirth may increase risk for decreased fetal movement and/or fetal heart rate variability, floppy infant syndrome, dependence, and withdrawal
              • Benzodiazepines cross the placenta and may produce respiratory depression, hypotonia, and sedation in neonates; monitor neonates exposed to this drug during pregnancy or labor for signs of sedation, respiratory depression, hypotonia, and feeding problems; monitor neonates exposed to therapy during pregnancy for signs of withdrawal; manage these neonates accordingly

              Animal studies

              • Administration of midazolam to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis or to rats during late pregnancy and throughout lactation at doses greater than those used clinically did not result in any apparent adverse effects on development
              • However, published data for benzodiazepines suggest potential of neuronal cell death and long-term effects on neurobehavioral and immunological function in animals following prenatal or early postnatal exposure at clinically relevant doses

              Lactation

              This drug is excreted in human milk; there are reports of sedation, poor feeding, and poor weight gain in infants exposed to benzodiazepines through breast milk; there are no data on effects of this drug on milk production

              The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for this drug and any potential adverse effects on breastfed infant from therapy or from the underlying maternal condition;

              Infants exposed to this drug through breast milk should be monitored for sedation, poor feeding, and poor weight gain

              Pregnancy Categories

              A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.

              B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk.

              C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done.

              D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

              X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.

              NA: Information not available.

              Pharmacology

              Mechanism of Action

              Binds receptors at several sites within the CNS, including the limbic system and reticular formation; effects may be mediated through GABA receptor system; increase in neuronal membrane permeability to chloride ions enhances the inhibitory effects of GABA; the shift in chloride ions causes hyperpolarization (less excitability) and stabilization of the neuronal membrane

              Absorption

              Absolute bioavailability: 44%

              Peak plasma time: 17.3 minutes

              Peak plasma concentration: 54.7 ng/mL

              AUC: 126.2 ng·hr/mL

              Distribution

              Vd: 226.5 L

              Protein bound: ~97%; 89% (1-hydroxy midazolam)

              Metabolism

              Primarily metabolized by liver and intestinal CYP3A4 to its pharmacologic active metabolite, 1-hydroxy midazolam (also termed alpha-hydroxymidazolam), which is at least as potent as the parent compound

              Also metabolized to 2 other minor metabolites: 4-hydroxy metabolite and 1,4-dihydroxy metabolite

              Elimination

              Half-life: 2.1-6.2 hr; 2.7-7.2 hr (major metabolite)

              Excretion: Primarily in urine as glucuronide conjugates of hydroxylated derivatives
