Cases of anaphylaxis, serious skin reactions (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome), erythema multiforme, and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome have been reported postmarketing with minocycline use in patients with acne. DRESS syndrome consists of cutaneous reaction (such as rash or exfoliative dermatitis), eosinophilia, and one or more of the following visceral complications such as: hepatitis, pneumonitis, nephritis, myocarditis, and pericarditis. Fever and lymphadenopathy may be present. In some cases, death has been reported. If this syndrome is recognized, discontinue EMROSI immediately.
The use of tetracycline class drugs, including EMROSI during tooth development (second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discoloration of the teeth (yellow-gray-brown). Permanent discoloration of the teeth is more common during long-term use of tetracycline-class drugs but has been observed following repeated short-term courses. Enamel hypoplasia has also been reported. Use of EMROSI is not recommended during tooth development.
Advise the patient of the potential risk to the fetus if EMROSI is used during the second or third trimester of pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.4)].
The use of tetracycline-class drugs, including EMROSI, during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years may cause reversible inhibition of bone growth. All tetracyclines, including EMROSI, form a stable calcium complex in any bone-forming tissue. A decrease in fibula growth rate has been observed in premature human infants given oral tetracycline in doses of 25 mg/kg every 6 hours. This reaction was shown to be reversible when the drug was discontinued.
Advise the patient of the potential risk to the fetus if EMROSI is used during the second or third trimester of pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.4)].
Clostridium difficileassociated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with nearly all antibacterial agents, including minocycline, and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis.
C. difficileproduces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD. Hypertoxin producing strains of C. difficilecause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy. CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea following antibiotic use. Careful medical history is necessary since CDAD has been reported to occur over two months after the administration of antibacterial agents.
If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, discontinue EMROSI.
Postmarketing cases of serious liver injury, including irreversible drug-induced hepatitis and fulminant hepatic failure (sometimes fatal) have been reported with minocycline use in the treatment of acne. Discontinue EMROSI if liver injury is suspected.
Central nervous system side effects including light-headedness, dizziness or vertigo have been reported with minocycline therapy. Caution patients who experience these symptoms about driving vehicles or using hazardous machinery while on EMROSI. These symptoms may disappear during therapy and usually rapidly disappear when the drug is discontinued.
Idiopathic Intracranial hypertension has been associated with the use of tetracyclines. Clinical manifestations of idiopathic intracranial hypertension include headache, blurred vision, diplopia, and vision loss; papilledema can be found on fundoscopy. Women of childbearing age who are overweight or have a history of idiopathic intracranial hypertension are at a greater risk for developing idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Avoid concomitant use of isotretinoin and EMROSI because isotretinoin, a systemic retinoid, is also known to cause idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Permanent visual loss may exist, even after the medication is discontinued. If visual disturbance occurs during treatment, prompt ophthalmologic evaluation is warranted. Because intracranial pressure can remain elevated for weeks after drug cessation, monitor patients until they stabilize.
Tetracyclines have been associated with the development of autoimmune syndromes. The long-term use of minocycline in the treatment of acne has been associated with drug-induced lupus-like syndrome, autoimmune hepatitis and vasculitis. Sporadic cases of serum sickness have presented shortly after minocycline use. Symptoms may be manifested by fever, rash, arthralgia, and malaise. Evaluate symptomatic patients. If symptoms occur, immediately discontinue EMROSI.
The anti-anabolic action of the tetracyclines, including EMROSI, may cause an increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In patients with significantly impaired renal function, higher serum levels of EMROSI may lead to azotemia, hyperphosphatemia, and acidosis. If renal impairment exists, monitor serum levels of EMROSI during treatment, and discontinue EMROSI if necessary.
Photosensitivity manifested by an exaggerated sunburn reaction has been observed in some individuals taking tetracyclines, including minocycline. Advise patients to minimize or avoid exposure to natural or artificial sunlight (tanning beds or UVA/B treatment) while using EMROSI. Instruct patients to use sunscreen products and wear protective apparel (e.g., hat) when exposure to sun cannot be avoided.
Tetracycline-class antibiotics are known to cause hyperpigmentation. EMROSI may induce hyperpigmentation in many organs, including nails, bone, skin, eyes, thyroid, visceral tissue, oral cavity (teeth, mucosa, alveolar bone), sclerae and heart valves. Skin and oral pigmentation has been reported to occur independently of time or amount of drug administration, whereas other tissue pigmentation has been reported to occur upon prolonged administration. Skin pigmentation includes diffuse pigmentation as well as over sites of scars or injury.
Bacterial resistance to the tetracyclines may develop in patients using EMROSI, Because of the potential for drug-resistant bacteria to develop during the use of EMROSI, use EMROSI only as indicated.
Use of EMROSI may result in overgrowth of nonsusceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs, discontinue EMROSI and institute appropriate therapy.
Perform periodic laboratory evaluations of organ systems, including hematopoietic, renal and hepatic studies.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction 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.
In two clinical trials, MVOR-1 and MVOR-2, a total of 638 adult subjects were analyzed under the safety population with 243 subjects in EMROSI group, 237 subjects in doxycycline (40 mg) group and 158 subjects in placebo group [see Clinical Studies (14)].
The most common adverse reaction reported by ≥1% of subjects treated with EMROSI and more frequently than in subjects receiving placebo was dyspepsia, which was reported in 2% of subjects treated with EMROSI and none of the subjects receiving placebo.
The following adverse reactions have been reported with post-approval use of minocycline hydrochloride in a variety of indications. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Skin and hypersensitivity reactions:anaphylaxis, angioedema, DRESS syndrome, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet’s syndrome), fixed drug eruptions, balanitis, anaphylactoid purpura photosensitivity, pigmentation of skin and mucous membranes.
Autoimmune conditions:polyarthralgia, pericarditis, exacerbation of systemic lupus, pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia, lupus-like syndrome.
Central nervous system:idiopathic intracranial hypertension, bulging fontanels in infants, decreased hearing.
Endocrine:brown-black microscopic thyroid discoloration, abnormal thyroid function.
Oncology:thyroid cancer.
Oral:glossitis, dysphagia, tooth discoloration.
Gastrointestinal:enterocolitis, pancreatitis, hepatitis, liver failure.
Renal:acute renal failure.
Hematology:hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, eosinophilia.
Because tetracyclines have been shown to decrease plasma prothrombin activity, patients who are on anticoagulant therapy may require downward adjustment of their anticoagulant dosage.
Because bacteriostatic drugs may interfere with the bactericidal action of penicillin, avoid giving EMROSI in conjunction with penicillin.
Absorption of tetracyclines is impaired by antacids containing aluminum, calcium or magnesium and iron-containing preparations.
False elevations of urinary catecholamine levels may occur due to interference with the fluorescence test.
Risk Summary
Tetracycline-class drugs, including EMROSI, may cause permanent discoloration of deciduous teeth and reversible inhibition of bone growth when administered during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2, 5.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. A few postmarketing cases of limb reductions have been reported over decades of use; however, the association is unclear. The limited data from postmarketing reports are not sufficient to inform a drug-associated risk for birth defects or miscarriage.
In animal reproduction studies conducted in pregnant rats and rabbits, bent limb bones were observed following oral administration of minocycline hydrochloride during organogenesis at systemic exposure of approximately 7.1 and 4.8 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) based on AUC exposures (see Data).
If the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, advise the patient of the risk to the fetus and discontinue treatment.
The 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. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively.
Data
Human Data
The use of tetracycline class drugs, including EMROSI, during tooth development (second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discoloration of deciduous teeth (yellow-gray-brown). Permanent discoloration of the teeth is more common during long-term use of the drug but has been observed following repeated short-term courses [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
Animal Data
Results of animal studies indicate that minocycline hydrochloride crosses the placenta, are found in fetal tissues, and can cause delayed skeletal development in the developing fetus. Evidence of embryotoxicity has been noted in animals treated early in pregnancy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
Minocycline hydrochloride induced skeletal malformations (bent limb bones) in fetuses when administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses of 30 mg/kg/day and 100 mg/kg/day, respectively, (7.1 and 4.8 times, respectively, the MRHD based on AUC comparison). Reduced mean fetal body weight was observed in studies in which minocycline hydrochloride was administered to pregnant rats at an oral dose of 10 mg/kg/day (2.4 times the MRHD based on AUC comparison).
Minocycline hydrochloride was assessed for effects on peri- and post-natal development of rats in a study that involved oral administration to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation at doses of 5, 10, or 50 mg/kg/day. In this study, body weight gain was significantly reduced in pregnant females that received 50 mg/kg/day (6 times the MRHD based on AUC comparison). No effects of treatment on the duration of the gestation period or the number of live pups born per litter were observed. Gross external anomalies observed in offspring of animals that received minocycline hydrochloride at 50 mg/kg/day included reduced body size, improperly rotated forelimbs, and reduced size of extremities. No effects were observed on the physical development, behavior, learning ability, or reproduction of the offspring of animals that received minocycline hydrochloride.
Risk Summary
Tetracycline-class antibiotics, including minocycline, are present in breast milk following oral administration. There are no data on the effects of minocycline on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including tooth discoloration and inhibition of bone growth, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during EMROSI therapy and for 4 days after the final dose [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2, 5.3)].
The safety and effectiveness of EMROSI have not been established in pediatric patients.
Tooth discoloration and inhibition of bone growth have been observed in pediatric patients with the use of tetracycline class antibiotics [see Warnings and Precaution (5.2, 5.3)].
Of the 653 subjects in the phase 3 clinical trials of EMROSI, 101 (15.5%) subjects were 65 years of age and older and 25 (3.8%) were 75 years of age and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness of EMROSI have been observed between subjects 65 years of age and older and younger adult subjects.
Minocycline is not removed in significant quantities by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. In case of overdosage, discontinue EMROSI, treat symptomatically and institute supportive measures. Call Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 for the latest recommendations.

The mechanism of action of EMROSI for the treatment of rosacea is unknown.
The pharmacodynamics of EMROSI for the treatment of rosacea are unknown.
EMROSI is not bioequivalent to any other minocycline products. The pharmacokinetics of minocycline following administration of EMROSI was investigated in two studies that enrolled 32 healthy, adult subjects. In Study 1, the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters for EMROSI following single dose administration under fasting and fed states are presented in Table 1.

Note: * Median (Range)
In Study 2, minocycline plasma PK following EMROSI single (Day 1) and after repeated (Day 21) once daily administrations in eight (8) subjects were found to be similar with overlapping ranges. The mean C maxwas 382.83 ng/mL versus 337.74 ng/mL and AUC 0-24was 3549.64 ng*hr/mL versus 3957.62 ng*hr/mL, respectively on Day 1 versus Day 21.
Absorption:In Study 1, the median plasma T maxof minocycline from EMROSI was 1.50 hours (1.00 - 4.17). In Study 2, the median plasma T maxvalues of minocycline from EMROSI on Day 1 and Day 21 were 1.75 and 1.5 hours, respectively.
Effect of Food:Following administration of EMROSI with a high-fat meal (1011 Kcal, 53% fat), T maxwas delayed by approximately 3 hours. The high fat meal did not impact the C maxhowever, the AUC infwas increased by 15.26% ( Table 1) [see Dosage and Administration (2)].
Distribution:Minocycline is lipid soluble and distributes into the skin and sebum. In Study 1, the mean apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F) values of minocycline following oral administration of EMROSI at fasting and fed condition were 229.61 (±67.83) L and 199.83 (±43.71) L, respectively.
Elimination:The mean apparent elimination half-life (t ½) of minocycline from EMROSI was approximately 15 hours independent of fasting and fed dosing condition.
In an oral carcinogenicity study in rats in which minocycline hydrochloride was administered once daily for up to 104 weeks at doses up to 200 mg/kg/day, minocycline hydrochloride increased incidences of follicular cell tumors of the thyroid gland in both sexes, including adenomas, carcinomas, and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in males and adenomas and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in females. In an oral carcinogenicity study in mice in which minocycline hydrochloride was administered once daily for up to 104 weeks at doses up to 150 mg/kg/day, minocycline hydrochloride did not increase tumor incidence.
Minocycline hydrochloride was not mutagenic in vitro in a bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) or CHO/HGPRT mammalian cell assay in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. Minocycline hydrochloride was not clastogenic in vitrousing human peripheral blood lymphocytes or in vivoin a mouse micronucleus test.
Male and female reproductive performance in rats was unaffected by oral doses of minocycline hydrochloride up to 300 mg/kg/day (95 times the MRHD based on AUC comparison). However, doses of 100 mg/kg/day (36 times the MRHD based on AUC comparison) and higher to male rats adversely affected spermatogenesis. At 100 mg/kg/day, minocycline increased morphological abnormalities, including absent heads, misshapen heads, and abnormal flagella. At 300 mg/kg/day, minocycline also reduced the number of sperm cells per gram of epididymis and reduced the percentage of motile sperm.
The safety and efficacy of EMROSI in the treatment of inflammatory lesions and erythema of rosacea was assessed in two 16-week, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, active- and placebo-controlled trials (MVOR-1 [NCT05296629] and MVOR-2 [NCT05343455]) in adults. In the two trials, a total of 653 subjects with papulopustular rosacea received EMROSI or doxycycline capsules 40 mg or placebo for up to 16 weeks.

Higher dosages have not shown to be of additional benefit in the treatment of inflammatory lesions of acne and may be associated with more acute vestibular adverse reactions.
Swallow tablets whole. Do not chew, crush, or split the extended-release tablets.
Administer minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Ingestion of food along with minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets may help reduce the risk of esophageal irritation and ulceration.
In patients with renal impairment, decrease the daily dosage by either reducing the recommended individual doses and/or by extending the time intervals between doses [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9)].
Minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablet is contraindicated in patients with history of a hypersensitivity reaction to any of the tetracyclines [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
Cases of anaphylaxis, serious skin reactions (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome), erythema multiforme, and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome have been reported postmarketing with minocycline use in patients with acne. DRESS syndrome consists of cutaneous reaction (such as rash or exfoliative dermatitis), eosinophilia, and one or more of the following visceral complications such as: hepatitis, pneumonitis, nephritis, myocarditis, and pericarditis. Fever and lymphadenopathy may be present. In some cases, death has been reported. If this syndrome is recognized, discontinue minocycline immediately.
The use of tetracycline-class drugs, including minocycline, during tooth development (second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discoloration of the teeth (yellow-gray -brown). Permanent discoloration of the teeth is more common during long-term use of tetracycline-class drugs but has been observed following repeated short-term courses. Enamel hypoplasia has also been reported. Use of minocycline is not recommended during tooth development.
Advise the patient of the potential risk to the fetus if minocycline is used during the second or third trimester of pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.4)].
The use of tetracycline-class drugs, including minocycline, during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years may cause reversible inhibition of bone growth. All tetracyclines, including minocycline, form a stable calcium complex in any bone-forming tissue. A decrease in fibula growth rate has been observed in premature human infants given oral tetracycline in doses of 25 mg/kg every 6 hours. This reaction was shown to be reversible when the drug was discontinued.
Advise the patient of the potential risk to the fetus if minocycline is used during the second or third trimester of pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.4)].
Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with nearly all antibacterial agents, including minocycline, and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis.
C. difficile produces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD. Hypertoxin-producing strains of C. difficile cause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy. CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea following antibiotic use. Careful medical history is necessary since CDAD has been reported to occur over two months after the administration of antibacterial agents.
If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, discontinue minocycline.
Postmarketing cases of serious liver injury, including irreversible drug-induced hepatitis and fulminant hepatic failure (sometimes fatal), have been reported with minocycline use in the treatment of acne. Discontinue minocycline if liver injury is suspected.
Central nervous system side effects including light-headedness, dizziness, or vertigo have been reported with minocycline therapy. Caution patients who experience these symptoms about driving vehicles or using hazardous machinery while on minocycline. These symptoms may disappear during therapy and usually rapidly disappear when minocycline is discontinued.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension has been associated with the use of tetracycline-class drugs, including minocycline. Clinical manifestations of idiopathic intracranial hypertension include headache, blurred vision, diplopia, and vision loss; papilledema can be found on fundoscopy. Women of childbearing age who are overweight or have a history of idiopathic intracranial hypertension are at a greater risk for developing idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Avoid concomitant use of isotretinoin and minocycline because isotretinoin, a systemic retinoid, is also known to cause idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Permanent visual loss may exist, even after the medication is discontinued. If visual disturbance occurs during treatment, prompt ophthalmologic evaluation is warranted. Because intracranial pressure can remain elevated for weeks after drug cessation, monitor patients until they stabilize.
Tetracyclines have been associated with the development of autoimmune syndromes. The long-term use of minocycline in the treatment of acne has been associated with drug-induced lupus-like syndrome, autoimmune hepatitis, and vasculitis. Sporadic cases of serum sickness have presented shortly after minocycline use. Symptoms may be manifested by fever, rash, arthralgia, and malaise. Evaluate symptomatic patients. If symptoms occur, immediately discontinue use of minocycline.
The anti-anabolic action of the tetracyclines, including minocycline, may cause an increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In patients with significantly impaired renal function, higher serum levels of tetracycline-class drugs may lead to azotemia, hyperphosphatemia, and acidosis. If renal impairment exists, lower the total doses of minocycline, and if therapy is prolonged, monitor serum levels minocycline.
Photosensitivity manifested by an exaggerated sunburn reaction has been observed in some individuals taking tetracyclines, including minocycline. Advise patients to minimize or avoid exposure to natural or artificial sunlight (e.g., tanning beds or UVA/B treatment) while using minocycline. Instruct patients to use sunscreen products and wear protective apparel (e.g., hat) when exposure to sun cannot be avoided.
Tetracycline-class antibiotics are known to cause hyperpigmentation. Tetracycline therapy may induce hyperpigmentation in many organs, including nails, bone, skin, eyes, thyroid, visceral tissue, oral cavity (e.g., teeth, mucosa, alveolar bone), sclerae and heart valves. Skin and oral pigmentation has been reported to occur independently of time or amount of drug administration, whereas other tissue pigmentation has been reported to occur upon prolonged administration. Skin pigmentation includes diffuse pigmentation as well as over sites of scars or injury.
Bacterial resistance to tetracyclines may develop in patients using minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets. Because of the potential for drug-resistant bacteria to develop during the use of minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets, it should be used only as indicated.
Use of minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs, discontinue minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets and institute appropriate therapy.
Perform periodic laboratory evaluations of organ systems, including hematopoietic, renal, and hepatic studies.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction 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 following table summarizes selected adverse reactions reported in clinical trials at a rate of >1% for minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets and higher than placebo.

The following adverse reactions have been reported with minocycline hydrochloride use in a variety of indications.
Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Skin and hypersensitivity reactions: anaphylaxis, angioedema, DRESS syndrome, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet's syndrome), fixed drug eruptions, balanitis, anaphylactoid purpura, photosensitivity, pigmentation of skin and mucous membranes.
Autoimmune conditions: polyarthralgia, pericarditis, exacerbation of systemic lupus, pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia, lupus-like syndrome.
Central nervous system: idiopathic intracranial hypertension, bulging fontanels in infants, decreased hearing.
Endocrine: brown-black microscopic thyroid discoloration, abnormal thyroid function.
Oncology: thyroid cancer.
Oral: glossitis, dysphagia, tooth discoloration.
Gastrointestinal: enterocolitis, pancreatitis, hepatitis, liver failure.
Renal: acute renal failure.
Hematology: hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, eosinophilia.
Because tetracyclines have been shown to depress plasma prothrombin activity, patients who are on anticoagulant therapy may require downward adjustment of their anticoagulant dosage.
Because bacteriostatic drugs may interfere with the bactericidal action of penicillin, avoid giving minocycline hydrochloride in conjunction with penicillin.
Absorption of tetracyclines is impaired by antacids containing aluminum, calcium, or magnesium and iron-containing preparations.
False elevations of urinary catecholamine levels may occur due to interference with the fluorescence test.
Risk Summary
Tetracycline class drugs, including minocycline may cause permanent discoloration of deciduous teeth and reversible inhibition of bone growth when administered during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2, 5.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. A few postmarketing cases of limb reductions have been reported over decades of use; however, the association is unclear. The limited data from postmarketing reports are not sufficient to inform a drug-associated risk for birth defects or miscarriage.
In animal reproduction studies conducted in pregnant rats and rabbits, fetuses with bent limb bones were observed following oral administration of minocycline during organogenesis at systemic exposures 3 and 2 times, respectively, the exposure associated with the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) (see Data).
If a patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, advise the patient of the risk to the fetus and to discontinue treatment.
The 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. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively.
Data
Human Data
The use of tetracycline class drugs, including minocycline, during tooth development (second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discoloration of deciduous teeth (yellow-gray-brown). Permanent discoloration of the teeth is more common during long-term use of the drug but has been observed following repeated short-term courses [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
Animal Data
Results of animal studies indicate that tetracyclines cross the placenta, are found in fetal tissues, and can cause delayed skeletal development in the developing fetus. Evidence of embryotoxicity has been noted in animals treated early in pregnancy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
Minocycline induced skeletal malformations (bent limb bones) in fetuses when administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses of 30 mg/kg/day and 100 mg/kg/day, respectively (3 times the MRHD and 2 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis, respectively). Reduced mean fetal body weight was observed in studies in which minocycline was administered to pregnant rats at an oral dose of 10 mg/kg/day (approximately equal to the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis).
Minocycline was assessed for effects on peri- and post-natal development of rats in a study that involved oral administration to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation at dosages of 5 mg/kg/day, 10 mg/kg/day, or 50 mg/kg/day. In this study, body weight gain was significantly reduced in pregnant females that received 50 mg/kg/day (2.5 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis). No effects of treatment on the duration of the gestation period or the number of live pups born per litter were observed. Gross external anomalies observed in offspring of animals that received minocycline included reduced body size, improperly rotated forelimbs, and reduced size of extremities. No effects were observed on the physical development, behavior, learning ability, or reproduction of the offspring of animals that received minocycline.
Risk Summary
Tetracycline-class antibiotics, including minocycline, are present in breast milk following oral administration. There are no data on the effects of minocycline on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including tooth discoloration and inhibition of bone growth, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during minocycline therapy and for 4 days after the final dose [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2, 5.3)].
The safety and effectiveness of minocycline hydrochloride have been established in pediatric patients 12 years of age and older for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of non-nodular moderate to severe acne vulgaris [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Tooth discoloration and inhibition of bone growth have been observed in pediatric patients [see Warnings and Precaution (5.2, 5.3)]. Use of tetracycline-class antibiotics below the age of 8 is not recommended due to the potential for tooth discoloration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
Safety and effectiveness of minocycline have not been established in pediatric patients younger than 12 years of age.
Clinical studies of minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
Minocycline is not removed in significant quantities by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. In case of overdosage, discontinue minocycline, treat symptomatically, and institute supportive measures. Call Poison Control Center at 1-800 222-1222 for the latest recommendations.

The mechanism of action of minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets for the treatment of acne is unknown.
The pharmacodynamics of minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets for the treatment of acne are unknown.
Minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets are not bioequivalent to non-modified release minocycline products. Based on pharmacokinetic studies in healthy adults, minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets produce a delayed Tmax at 3.5 hours to 4 hours as compared to a non-modified release reference minocycline product (Tmax at 2.25 hours to 3 hours). At steady-state (Day 6), the mean AUC(0 to 24) and Cmax were 33.32 mcg×hr/mL and 2.63 mcg/mL for minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets and 46.35 mcg×hr/mL and 2.92 mcg/mL for minocycline hydrochloride capsules, respectively. These parameters are based on dose adjusted to 135 mg/day for both products.
A single-dose, four-way crossover study demonstrated that minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets used in the study (45 mg, 90 mg, 135 mg) exhibited dose-proportional pharmacokinetics. In another single-dose, five-way crossover pharmacokinetic study, minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets 55 mg, 80 mg, and 105 mg were shown to be dose-proportional to minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets 90 mg and 135 mg.
When minocycline hydrochloride extended-release tablets were administered concomitantly with a meal that included dairy products, the extent and timing of absorption of minocycline did not differ from that of administration under fasting conditions.
Minocycline is lipid soluble and distributes into the skin and sebum.
In a carcinogenicity study in which minocycline hydrochloride was orally administered to male and female rats once daily for up to 104 weeks at dosages up to 200 mg/kg/day, minocycline hydrochloride was associated in both sexes with follicular cell tumors of the thyroid gland, including increased incidences of adenomas, carcinomas and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in males, and adenomas and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in females. In a carcinogenicity study in which minocycline hydrochloride was orally administered to male and female mice once daily for up to 104 weeks at dosages up to 150 mg/kg/day, exposure to minocycline hydrochloride did not result in a significantly increased incidence of neoplasms in either males or females.
Minocycline was not mutagenic in vitro in a bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) or CHO/HGPRT mammalian cell assay in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. Minocycline was not clastogenic in vitro using human peripheral blood lymphocytes or in vivo in a mouse micronucleus test.
Male and female reproductive performance in rats was unaffected by oral doses of minocycline of up to 300 mg/kg/day (40 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis). However, oral administration of 100 mg/kg/day or 300 mg/kg/day of minocycline to male rats (15 to 40 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis) adversely affected spermatogenesis. Effects observed at 300 mg/kg/day included a reduced number of sperm cells per gram of epididymis, an apparent reduction in the percentage of sperm that were motile, and (at 100 mg/kg/day and 300 mg/kg/day) increased numbers of morphologically abnormal sperm cells. Morphological abnormalities observed in sperm samples included absent heads, misshapen heads, and abnormal flagella.
The two primary efficacy endpoints were:
1) Mean percent change in inflammatory lesion counts from Baseline to 12 weeks.
2) Percentage of subjects with an Evaluator's Global Severity Assessment (EGSA) of clear or almost clear at 12 weeks.
Efficacy results are presented in Table 4.

After shaking the can well, a small amount of topical foam (e.g. a cherry-sized amount) should be expressed from the can onto the fingertips of the hand and then rubbed into acne-affected parts of the face. This should be repeated as needed until all acne-affected parts of the face are treated. If acne is present on other parts of the patient’s body (neck, shoulders, arms, back or chest), additional amounts of topical foam should also be applied to these areas. The topical foam should be applied at approximately the same time each day at least 1 hour before bedtime. The patient should not bathe, shower or swim for at least 1 hour after application of the product.

{ "type": "p", "children": [], "text": "This drug is contraindicated in persons who have shown hypersensitivity to any of the tetracyclines or any other ingredients within AMZEEQ." }
The propellant in AMZEEQ is flammable. Instruct the patient to avoid fire, flame, and smoking during and immediately following application. Do not puncture and/or incinerate the containers. Do not expose containers to heat and/or store at temperatures above 120°F (49°C).
Minocycline, like other tetracycline-class drugs, may inhibit bone growth when administered orally during pregnancy. Based on animal data, when administered orally, tetracyclines cross the placenta, are found in fetal tissues, and can cause skeletal malformation and retardation of skeletal development on the developing fetus [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1) and Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13)] .
The use of tetracycline class drugs orally during tooth development (second and third trimesters of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discoloration of the teeth (yellow-gray-brown). This adverse reaction is more common during long-term oral use of the tetracycline but has been observed following repeated short-term courses. Enamel hypoplasia has also been reported with oral tetracycline drugs. Use of tetracycline drugs is not recommended during tooth development.
The safety and effectiveness of AMZEEQ have not been established in pediatric patients less than 9 years of age.
All tetracyclines form a stable calcium complex in any bone-forming tissue. A decrease in fibula growth rate has been observed in premature human infants given oral tetracycline in doses of 25 mg/kg every 6 hours. This reaction was shown to be reversible when the drug was discontinued. The safety and effectiveness of AMZEEQ have not been established in patients less than 9 years of age [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1, 8.4)].
Results of animal studies indicate that oral tetracyclines cross the placenta, are found in fetal tissues, and can cause retardation of skeletal development on the developing fetus. Evidence of embryotoxicity has been noted in animals treated orally early in pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1)].
Clostridioides difficileassociated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with nearly all antibacterial agents, including oral minocycline, and may range in severity from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Treatment with antibacterial agents alters the normal flora of the colon leading to overgrowth of C. difficile.
C. difficileproduces toxins A and B which contribute to the development of CDAD. Hypertoxin producing strains of C. difficilecause increased morbidity and mortality, as these infections can be refractory to antimicrobial therapy and may require colectomy. CDAD must be considered in all patients who present with diarrhea following antibiotic use. Careful medical history is necessary since CDAD has been reported to occur over two months after the administration of antibacterial agents.
If CDAD is suspected or confirmed, antibiotic use not directed against C. difficilemay need to be discontinued. Appropriate fluid and electrolyte management, protein supplementation, antibiotic treatment of C. difficile, and surgical evaluation should be instituted as clinically indicated.
Post-marketing cases of serious liver injury, including irreversible drug-induced hepatitis and fulminant hepatic failure (sometimes fatal) have been reported with oral minocycline use in the treatment of acne.
The anti-anabolic action of the tetracyclines may cause an increase in blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In patients with significantly impaired function, higher serum levels of tetracycline-class drugs may lead to azotemia, hyperphosphatemia, and acidosis. If renal impairment exists, recommended oral or parenteral doses may lead to excessive systemic accumulations of the drug and possible liver toxicity. Under such conditions, adjust the dose downward, and if therapy is prolonged, serum level determinations of the drug may be advisable.
Central nervous system side effects including light-headedness, dizziness or vertigo have been reported with oral minocycline therapy. Patients who experience these symptoms should be cautioned about driving vehicles or using hazardous machinery while on minocycline therapy. These symptoms may disappear during therapy and may disappear when the drug is discontinued.
Intracranial hypertension has been associated with the use of tetracycline-class drugs. Clinical manifestations of intracranial hypertension include headache, blurred vision, diplopia and vision loss; papilledema can be found on fundoscopy. Women of childbearing age who are overweight or have a history of IH are at a greater risk for developing intracranial hypertension. Patients should be questioned for visual disturbances prior to initiation of treatment with tetracyclines. Concomitant use of isotretinoin and tetracycline should be avoided because isotretinoin, a systemic retinoid, is also known to cause intracranial hypertension.
Although intracranial hypertension typically resolves after discontinuation of treatment, the possibility for permanent visual loss exists. If visual disturbance occurs during treatment, prompt ophthalmologic evaluation is warranted. Because intracranial pressure can remain elevated for weeks after drug cessation, patients should be monitored until they stabilize.
Tetracyclines have been associated with the development of autoimmune syndromes. The long-term use of oral minocycline in the treatment of acne has been associated with drug-induced lupus-like syndrome, autoimmune hepatitis and vasculitis. Sporadic cases of serum sickness have presented shortly after oral minocycline use. Symptoms may be manifested by fever, rash, arthralgia, and malaise. In symptomatic patients, immediately discontinue the use of all tetracycline-class drugs, including AMZEEQ.
Photosensitivity manifested by an exaggerated sunburn reaction has been observed in some individuals taking oral tetracyclines; this reaction has been reported less frequently with minocycline. Although AMZEEQ did not induce phototoxicity or photoallergic responses in human dermal safety studies, patients should minimize or avoid exposure to natural or artificial sunlight (tanning beds or UVA/B treatment) while using minocycline. If patients need to be outdoors while using AMZEEQ, they should wear loose-fitting clothes that protect skin from sun exposure and discuss other sun protection measures with their physician. Advise patients to discontinue treatment with AMZEEQ at the first evidence of sunburn.
Cases of anaphylaxis, serious skin reactions (e.g. Stevens Johnson syndrome), erythema multiforme, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome have been reported postmarketing with oral minocycline use in patients with acne. DRESS syndrome consists of cutaneous reaction (such as rash or exfoliative dermatitis), eosinophilia, and one or more of the following visceral complications such as: hepatitis, pneumonitis, nephritis, myocarditis, and pericarditis. Fever and lymphadenopathy may be present. In some cases, death has been reported with oral minocycline use. If this syndrome is recognized, discontinue AMZEEQ immediately.
Oral tetracyclines are known to cause hyperpigmentation. Tetracycline therapy may induce hyperpigmentation in many organs, including nails, bone, skin, eyes, thyroid, visceral tissue, oral cavity (teeth, mucosa, alveolar bone), sclerae and heart valves. Skin and oral pigmentation has been reported to occur independently of time or amount of drug administration, whereas other tissue pigmentation has been reported to occur upon prolonged administration. Skin pigmentation includes diffuse pigmentation as well as pigmentation over sites of scars or injury.
AMZEEQ has not been evaluated in the treatment of infections. Bacterial resistance to the tetracyclines may develop in patients using AMZEEQ, therefore, the susceptibility of bacteria associated with infection should be considered in selecting antimicrobial therapy. Because of the potential for drug-resistant bacteria to develop during the use of AMZEEQ, it should be used only as indicated.
Use of AMZEEQ may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs, discontinue AMZEEQ and institute appropriate therapy.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction 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.
In 3 randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled trials, subjects age 9 years and older applied AMZEEQ or vehicle once daily for 12 weeks. A total of 1,356 subjects were treated with AMZEEQ and 1,058 with vehicle. The majority of subjects were White (74%) and female (60%). Approximately 34% were Hispanic/Latino and 49% were younger than 18 years of age.
The most common adverse reaction reported by ≥1% of subjects treated with AMZEEQ and more frequently than in subjects treated with vehicle was headache, which was reported in 3% of subjects treated with AMZEEQ and 2% of subjects treated with vehicle.
Local tolerability evaluations were conducted at each study visit in the clinical trial by assessment of erythema, dryness, hyperpigmentation, skin peeling and itching. Table 1presents the active assessment of the signs and symptoms of local facial tolerability at Week 12 in subjects treated with AMZEEQ.
Local tolerability signs and symptoms occurred in similar frequency and severity as subjects treated with the vehicle component of AMZEEQ.

In a 40-week open-label extension safety study (for a total of up to 52 weeks of treatment), frequency and severity of local tolerability signs and symptoms at Week 52 were comparable to those reported at Week 12.
Because tetracyclines have been shown to depress plasma prothrombin activity, patients who are on anticoagulant therapy may require downward adjustment of their anticoagulant dosage.
Since bacteriostatic drugs may interfere with the bactericidal action of penicillin, it is advisable to avoid giving tetracycline-class drugs in conjunction with penicillin.
False elevations of urinary catecholamine levels may occur due to interference with the fluorescence test.
Risk Summary
Available data with AMZEEQ use in pregnant women are insufficient to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Systemic absorption of AMZEEQ in humans is low following once daily topical administration of AMZEEQ for 21 days [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3)] . Because of low systemic exposure, it is not expected that maternal use of AMZEEQ will result in significant fetal exposure to the drug.
Tetracycline-class drugs may cause permanent discoloration of teeth and reversible inhibition of bone growth when administered orally during pregnancy [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2, 5.3, 5.4) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.4)] .
Animal reproduction studies were not conducted with AMZEEQ. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of minocycline administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis induced skeletal malformations in fetuses at systemic exposures of 750 and 500 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD; based on AUC comparison) of AMZEEQ ( see Data).
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. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively.
Data
Animal Data
Results of animal studies indicate that tetracyclines cross the placenta, are found in fetal tissues, and can cause retardation of skeletal development of the developing fetus [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2) ].
Minocycline induced skeletal malformations (bent limb bones) in fetuses when orally administered to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis at doses of 30 mg/kg/day and 100 mg/kg/day, respectively, (750 and 500 times, respectively, the systemic exposure at the MRHD based on AUC comparison). Reduced mean fetal body weight was observed when minocycline was orally administered to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at a dose of 10 mg/kg/day (250 times the systemic exposure at the MRHD based on AUC comparison).
Minocycline was assessed for effects on peri- and post-natal development of rats in a study that involved oral administration to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation, at doses of 5, 10, or 50 mg/kg/day. In this study, body weight gain was significantly reduced in pregnant females that received 50 mg/kg/day (650 times the systemic exposure at the MRHD based on AUC comparison). No effects of treatment on the duration of the gestation period or the number of live pups born per litter were observed. Gross external anomalies observed in F1 pups (offspring of animals that received oral minocycline) included reduced body size, improperly rotated forelimbs, and reduced size of extremities. No effects were observed on the physical development, behavior, learning ability, or reproduction of F1 pups, and there was no effect on gross appearance of F2 pups (offspring of F1 animals).
Risk Summary
Tetracycline-class drugs, including minocycline, are present in breast milk following oral administration. It is not known whether minocycline is present in human milk after topical administration to the nursing mother. There are no data on the effects of minocycline on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with AMZEEQ [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2)].
The safety and effectiveness of AMZEEQ have been established in pediatric patients 9 years of age and older for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of non-nodular moderate to severe acne vulgaris. Use of AMZEEQ for this indication is supported by three adequate and well controlled 12-week trials in patients 9 years of age and older; two of the trials included a 40-week open-label extension. Additional data was obtained from a 7-day open-label safety and pharmacokinetics study conducted in 20 patients 10 years to less than 17 years of age with acne vulgaris [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3) and Clinical Studies ( 14)] . A total of 686 subjects 9 years of age and older received AMZEEQ in these clinical trials.
Safety and effectiveness for this indication have not been established in pediatric patients less than 9 years of age. The use of oral tetracycline drugs during tooth development below the age of 8 years may cause permanent discoloration of the teeth (yellow-gray-brown) and inhibition of bone growth [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2, 5.3)] .
Clinical studies of AMZEEQ did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 years and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients.

The mechanism of action of AMZEEQ for the treatment of acne is unknown.
The pharmacodynamics of AMZEEQ for the treatment of acne are unknown.
In a pharmacokinetic study, male and female subjects 18 years of age or older with acne vulgaris (N=30) applied approximately 4 grams of AMZEEQ topically to the face, neck, upper chest, upper back, shoulder and upper arms once daily for 21 days. The mean ± SD C maxand AUC 0-24hwere 1.3 ± 0.6 ng/mL and 23.0 ± 10.8 ng·h/mL, respectively at Day 21 for AMZEEQ. After daily application of AMZEEQ in subjects with acne for 21 days, steady-state was reached by Day 6 and systemic accumulation of minocycline was not evident.
Specific Populations
Age: Pediatric Population
Pharmacokinetics of minocycline was evaluated in 20 subjects 10 years to less than 17 years of age with acne vulgaris following application of approximately 4 grams of AMZEEQ topically to the face, neck, upper chest, upper back, shoulder and upper arms once daily for 7 days. Minocycline was detected in all samples obtained on Day 7. Pharmacokinetic results are presented by age group in Table 2. The overall pediatric population showed 2.4-fold and 2.7-fold higher C maxand AUC 0-24hcompared to the adult population.

Resistance
Propionibacterium acnesstrains displayed a low propensity for the development of resistance to minocycline, with spontaneous mutation frequencies being <10 −8at 2 to 16 × MIC.
Antimicrobial Activity
Minocycline is active in vitro against most isolates of Propionibacterium acnes; however, the clinical significance is unknown.
In a carcinogenicity study in which minocycline hydrochloride was orally administered to male and female rats once daily for up to 104 weeks at dosages up to 200 mg/kg/day, minocycline hydrochloride was associated in both sexes with follicular cell tumors of the thyroid gland, including increased incidences of adenomas, carcinomas and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in males, and adenomas and the combined incidence of adenomas and carcinomas in females. In a carcinogenicity study in which minocycline hydrochloride was orally administered to male and female mice once daily for up to 104 weeks at dosages up to 150 mg/kg/day, exposure to minocycline hydrochloride did not result in a significantly increased incidence of neoplasms in either males or females.
Minocycline was not mutagenic in vitro in a bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) or CHO/HGPRT mammalian cell assay in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. Minocycline was not clastogenic in vitro using human peripheral blood lymphocytes or in vivo in a mouse micronucleus test.
Male and female reproductive performance in rats was unaffected by oral doses of minocycline of up to 300 mg/kg/day (10,000 times the systemic exposure at the MRHD based on AUC comparison). However, oral administration of 100 or 300 mg/kg/day of minocycline to male rats (3,800 or 10,000 times, respectively, the systemic exposure at the MRHD based on AUC comparison), adversely affected spermatogenesis.
Effects observed at 300 mg/kg/day of oral minocycline included a reduced number of sperm cells per gram of epididymis, an apparent reduction in the percentage of sperm that were motile, and (at 100 and 300 mg/kg/day) increased numbers of morphologically abnormal sperm cells. Morphological abnormalities observed in sperm samples included absent heads, misshapen heads, and abnormal flagella.
The safety and efficacy of AMZEEQ was assessed in three 12-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled studies (Study 1 [NCT02815267], Study 2 [NCT02815280], and Study 3 [NCT03271021]) in subjects with moderate to severe acne vulgaris. Efficacy was assessed in a total of 2,418 subjects 9 years of age and older. AMZEEQ or its vehicle were applied once daily for 12 weeks; no other topical or systemic medication affecting the course of acne vulgaris was permitted for use during these studies.
