Known hypersensitivity reactions to tafenoquine, other 8-aminoquinolines, or any component of KRINTAFEL. (4)

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS


Hemolytic Anemia: G6PD testing must be performed before prescribing KRINTAFEL due to the risk of hemolytic anemia. Monitor patients for clinical signs or symptoms of hemolysis. (5.1)

G6PD Deficiency in Pregnancy or Lactation: KRINTAFEL may cause hemolytic anemia when administered to a pregnant woman with a G6PD-deficient fetus. KRINTAFEL is not recommended during pregnancy. A G6PD-deficient infant may be at risk for hemolytic anemia from exposure to KRINTAFEL through breast milk. Check infant's G6PD status before breastfeeding begins. (5.2, 8.1, 8.2)

Methemoglobinemia: Asymptomatic elevations in blood methemoglobin have been observed. Initiate appropriate therapy if signs or symptoms of methemoglobinemia occur. (5.3)

Psychiatric Effects: Serious psychiatric adverse reactions have been observed in patients with a previous history of psychiatric conditions at doses higher than the approved dose. The benefit of treatment with KRINTAFEL must be weighed against the potential risk for psychiatric adverse reactions in patients with a history of psychiatric illness. (5.4)

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., angioedema) have been observed with administration of KRINTAFEL. If hypersensitivity reactions occur, institute appropriate therapy. (5.5)

Due to the long half-life of KRINTAFEL (15 days), psychiatric effects and hypersensitivity reactions may be delayed in onset and/or duration. (5.4, 5.5, 12.3)

ADVERSE REACTIONS

Common adverse reactions (?5%) were dizziness, nausea, vomiting, headache, and decreased hemoglobin. (6.1)

To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact GlaxoSmithKline at 1-888-825-5249 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.
DRUG INTERACTIONS

Avoid coadministration with drugs that are substrates of organic cation transporter-2 (OCT2) or multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) transporters. (7.1)
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

Lactation: Advise women not to breastfeed a G6PD-deficient infant or infant with unknown G6PD status for 3 months after the dose of KRINTAFEL. (8.2)
