The use of Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets exposes individuals to the risks of abuse and misuse, which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction. Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets can be diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels or distribution
 
  <content styleCode="italics">[see Drug Abuse and Dependence (9.2)]</content>. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, can result in overdose and death
 
  <content styleCode="italics">[see Overdosage (10)]</content>, and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection.

 </paragraph>
                <paragraph>Before prescribing Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, assess each patient’s risk for abuse, misuse, and addiction. Educate patients and their families about these risks and proper disposal of any unused drug. Advise patients to store Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets in a safe place, preferably locked, and instruct patients to not give Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets to anyone else. Throughout Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets treatment, reassess each patient’s risk of abuse, misuse, and addiction and frequently monitor for signs and symptoms of abuse, misuse, and addiction.</paragraph>

                <paragraph>CNS stimulants may induce a manic or mixed mood episode in patients. Prior to initiating Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets treatment, screen patients for risk factors for developing a manic episode (e.g., comorbid or history of depressive symptoms or a family history of suicide, bipolar disorder, or depression).</paragraph>

                <paragraph>CNS stimulants, at recommended doses, may cause psychotic or manic symptoms (e.g., hallucinations, delusional thinking, or mania) in patients without a prior history of psychotic illness or mania. In a pooled analysis of multiple short-term, placebo-controlled studies of CNS stimulants, psychotic or manic symptoms occurred in approximately 0.1% of CNS stimulant-treated patients, compared to 0% of placebo-treated patients. If such symptoms occur, consider discontinuing Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets.</paragraph>

Although priapism was not reported with methylphenidate initiation, it developed after some time on methylphenidate, often subsequent to an increase in dosage. Priapism occurred during methylphenidate withdrawal (drug holidays or during discontinuation).</paragraph>

              <text>
                <paragraph>CNS stimulants, including Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, used to treat ADHD are associated with peripheral vasculopathy, including Raynaud’s phenomenon. Signs and symptoms are usually intermittent and mild; however, sequelae have included digital ulceration and/or soft tissue breakdown. Effects of peripheral vasculopathy, including Raynaud’s phenomenon, were observed in postmarketing reports and at therapeutic dosage of CNS stimulants in all age groups throughout the course of treatment. Signs and symptoms generally improved after dosage reduction or discontinuation of the CNS stimulant.</paragraph>
                <paragraph>Careful observation for digital changes is necessary during Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets treatment. Further clinical evaluation (e.g., rheumatology referral) may be appropriate for Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets-treated patients who develop signs or symptoms of peripheral vasculopathy.</paragraph>

              <text>
                <paragraph>CNS stimulants have been associated with weight loss and slowing of growth rate in pediatric patients.</paragraph>
                <paragraph>Careful follow-up of weight and height in pediatric patients ages 7 to 10 years who were randomized to either methylphenidate or non-medication treatment groups over 14 months, as well as in naturalistic subgroups of newly methylphenidate-treated and non-medication treated patients over 36 months (to the ages of 10 to 13 years), suggests that pediatric patients who received methylphenidate for 7 days per week throughout the yearhad a temporary slowing in growth rate (on average, a total of about 2 cm less growth in height and 2.7 kg less growth in weight over 3 years), without evidence of growth rebound during this development period.</paragraph>
                <paragraph>Closely monitor growth (weight and height) in Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets-treated pediatric patients. Patients who are not growing or gaining height or weight as expected may need to have their treatment interrupted.</paragraph>

There may be risks to the fetus associated with the use of CNS stimulants use during pregnancy
 
  <content styleCode="italics">(see Clinical Considerations)</content>.

 </paragraph>
                <paragraph>No effects on morphological development were observed in embryo-fetal development studies with oral administration of methylphenidate to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses up to 10 and 15 times, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis. However, spina bifida was observed in rabbits at a dose 52 times the MRHD given to adolescents. A decrease in pup body weight was observed in a pre- and post-natal development study with oral administration of methylphenidate to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses 6 times the MRHD given to adolescents

 </paragraph>
                <paragraph>The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown.

                </paragraph>
                <paragraph>In embryo-fetal development studies conducted in rats and rabbits, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 75 and 200 mg/kg/day, respectively, during the period of organogenesis. Malformations (increased incidence of fetal spina bifida) were observed in rabbits at the highest dose, which is approximately 52 times the MRHD of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis. The no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rabbits was 60 mg/kg/day (15times the MRHD given to adolescents on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis). There was no evidence of morphological development effects in rats, although increased incidences of fetal skeletal variations were seen at the highest dose level (10 times the MRHD of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis), which was also maternally toxic. The no effect level for embryo-fetal development in rats was 25 mg/kg/day (3 times the MRHD on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis). When methylphenidate was administered to rats throughout pregnancy and lactation at doses of up to 45 mg/kg/day, offspring body weight gain was decreased at the highest dose (6 times the MRHD of 60 mg/day given to adolescents on a mg/m2 basis), but no other effects on postnatal development were observed. The no effect level for pre- and postnatal development in rats was 15 mg/kg/day (approximately 2 times the MRHD given to adolescents on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis).

                <paragraph>Rats treated with methylphenidate early in the postnatal period through sexual maturation demonstrated a decrease in spontaneous locomotor activity in adulthood. A deficit in acquisition of a specific learning task was observed in females only. The doses at which these findings were observed are at least 4 times the MRHD of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis.

 </paragraph>
                <paragraph>In a study conducted in young rats, methylphenidate was administered orally at doses of up to 100 mg/kg/day for 9 weeks, starting early in the postnatal period (postnatal Day 7) and continuing through sexual maturity (postnatal Week 10). When these animals were tested as adults (postnatal Weeks 13 to 14), decreased spontaneous locomotor activity was observed in males and females previously treated with 50 mg/kg/day (approximately 4 times the MRHD of 60 mg/day given to children on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis) or greater, and a deficit in the acquisition of a specific learning task was seen in females exposed to the highest dose (8 times the MRHD given to children on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis). The no effect level for juvenile neurobehavioral development in rats was 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.5 times the MRHD given to children on a mg/m
 
  <sup>2</sup>basis). The clinical significance of the long-term behavioral effects observed in rats is unknown.

              <text>
                <paragraph>Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets has a high potential for abuse and misuse which can lead to the development of a substance use disorder, including addiction
 
  <content styleCode="italics">[see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]</content>. Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets can be diverted for non-medical use into illicit channels or distribution.

 </paragraph>
                <paragraph>Abuse is the intentional non-therapeutic use of a drug, even once, to achieve a desired psychological or physiological effect. Misuse is the intentional use, for therapeutic purposes, of a drug by an individual in a way other than prescribed by a health care provider or for whom it was not prescribed. Drug addiction is a cluster of behavioral, cognitive, and physiological phenomena that may include a strong desire to take the drug, difficulties in controlling drug use (e.g., continuing drug use despite harmful consequences, giving a higher priority to drug use than other activities and obligations), and possible tolerance or physical dependence.</paragraph>
                <paragraph>Misuse and abuse of methylphenidate hydrochloride may cause increased heart rate, respiratory rate, or blood pressure; sweating; dilated pupils; hyperactivity; restlessness; insomnia; decreased appetite; loss of coordination; tremors; flushed skin; vomiting; and/or abdominal pain. Anxiety, psychosis, hostility, aggression, and suicidal or homicidal ideation have also been observed with CNS stimulants abuse and/or misuse. Misuse and abuse of CNS stimulants, including Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, can result in overdose and death
 
  <content styleCode="italics">[see Overdosage (10)]</content>, and this risk is increased with higher doses or unapproved methods of administration, such as snorting or injection.

              <text>
                <paragraph>Methylphenidate is a racemic mixture comprised of the
 
  <content styleCode="italics">d-</content>and
 
  <content styleCode="italics">l-threo </content>enantiomers. The
 
  <content styleCode="italics">d-threo</content> enantiomer is more pharmacologically active than the
 
  <content styleCode="italics">l-threo </content>enantiomer. Methylphenidate blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine into the presynaptic neuron and increase the release of these monoamines into the extraneuronal space.

                <paragraph>A formal QT study has not been conducted in patients taking Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets.</paragraph>
                <paragraph>The effect of dexmethylphenidate, the pharmacologically active d-enantiomer of Methylphenidate hydrochloride tablets, on the QT interval was evaluated in a double-blind, placebo- and open-label active (moxifloxacin)-controlled study following single doses of dexmethylphenidate XR 40 mg (maximum recommended adult total daily dosage) in 75 healthy volunteers. Electrocardiograms were collected up to 12 hours postdose. Frederica’s method for heart rate correction was employed to derive the corrected QT interval (QTcF). The maximum mean prolongation of QTcF intervals was less than 5 ms, and the upper limit of the 90% confidence interval was below 10 ms for all time-matched comparisons versus placebo. This was below the threshold of clinical concern and there was no evident exposure response relationship.</paragraph>
