2.3 Other hazards
Each 5 mL multidose vial contains 1250 mg hydroxyprogesterone caproate. Makena is a progestin indicated to reduce the risk of preterm birth in women with a singleton pregnancy who have a history of singleton spontaneous preterm birth. The effectiveness of Makena is based on improvement in the proportion of women who delivered < 37 weeks of gestation. There are no controlled trials demonstrating a direct clinical benefit, such as improvement in neonatal mortality and morbidity. While there are many risk factors for preterm birth, safety and efficacy of Makena has been demonstrated only in women with a prior spontaneous singleton preterm birth. It is not intended for use in women with multiple gestations or other risk factors for preterm birth. The most commonly reported adverse effects include injection site reactions (pain, swelling, itchiness) gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort, headache, dizziness, depression, chest discomfort, difficulty breathing, and urinary tract infections, changes to the cervix, and premature rupture of membranes. An increased incidence of fetal and maternal complications was observed, including miscarriage and stillbirth, preterm labor, gestational hypertension, and gestational diabetes. There are no adequate and well- controlled studies of Makena use in women during the first trimester of pregnancy. Data from a placebo-controlled clinical trial did not demonstrate any teratogenic risks to infants from in utero exposure to Makena during the second or third trimesters. Though not currently indicated for this purpose, hydroxyprogesterone caproate has been used in non-pregnant women to treat menstrual disorders. Note This product is classified as hazardous according to Regulation EC No 1272/2008 (EU CLP) and Hazard Communication Standard No. 1910.1200 (US OSHA).
