The adverse reactions reported below are specific to the clinical trials with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. The safety of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets was evaluated in clinical studies involving 2,317 patients (aged 27 to 90 years) and ranging from 3 to 12 months. Patients received either 500 mg/20 mg of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily (n=1,157), 500 mg of enteric-coated naproxen twice daily (n=426), or placebo (n=246). The average number of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets doses taken over 12 months was 696±44. The table below lists all adverse reactions, regardless of causality, occurring in >2% of patients receiving naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and higher in the naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium group than control from two clinical studies (Study 1 and Study 2). Both of these studies were randomized, multi-center, double-blind, parallel studies. The majority of patients were female (67%), white (86%). The majority of patients were 50 to 69 years of age (83%). Approximately one quarter were on low-dose aspirin. Table 1: Adverse Reactions* in Study 1 and Study 2 (endoscopic studies) Preferred term Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 500 mg/20 mg twice daily (n=428) % EC-Naproxen 500 mg twice daily (n=426) % Gastritis 17 14 Diarrhea 6 5 Upper respiratory tract infection 5 4 Flatulence 4 3 Headache 3 1 Urinary tract infection 2 1 Dysgeusia 2 1 *reported in >2% of patients and higher in the naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium group than control In Study 1 and Study 2, patients taking naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets had fewer premature discontinuations due to adverse reactions compared to patients taking enteric-coated naproxen alone (7.9% vs. 12.5% respectively). The most common reasons for discontinuations due to adverse events in the naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets treatment group were upper abdominal pain (1.2%, n=5), duodenal ulcer (0.7%, n=3) and erosive gastritis (0.7%, n=3). Among patients receiving enteric-coated naproxen, the most common reasons for discontinuations due to adverse events were duodenal ulcer 5.4% (n=23), dyspepsia 2.8% (n=12) and upper abdominal pain 1.2% (n=5). The proportion of patients discontinuing treatment due to any upper gastrointestinal adverse events (including duodenal ulcers) in patients treated with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets was 4% compared to 12% for patients taking enteric-coated naproxen. The table below lists all adverse reactions, regardless of causality, occurring in >2% of patients and higher in the naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium group than placebo from 2 clinical studies conducted in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee (Study 3 and Study 4).

There were no preferred terms in which more than 1% of subjects withdrew from any treatment group. The long-term safety of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets was evaluated in an open-label clinical trial of 239 patients, of which 135 patients received 500 mg/20 mg of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets for 12 months. There were no differences in frequency or types of adverse reactions seen in the long-term safety study compared to shorter-term treatment in the randomized controlled studies.

11 DESCRIPTION The active ingredients of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are naproxen which is an NSAID and esomeprazole magnesium which is a Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI). Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are combination of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and a PPI available as modified capsule shaped, off white to yellow colored 375 mg/20 mg and 500 mg/20 mg, multi-layer, delayed-release tablet combining an enteric-coated naproxen core and an immediate-release esomeprazole magnesium layer surrounding the core. Each strength contains either 375 mg of naproxen USP and 20 mg of esomeprazole (equivalent to 20.71 mg esomeprazole magnesium USP amorphous form) or 500 mg of naproxen USP and 20 mg of esomeprazole (equivalent to 20.71 mg esomeprazole magnesium USP amorphous form) for oral administration. The inactive ingredients are ammonium hydroxide, croscarmellose sodium, ferric oxide yellow, hypromellose, iron oxide black, lactose monohydrate, magnesium oxide, magnesium stearate, methacrylic acid copolymer, poloxamer, polyethylene glycol 400, povidone, propylene glycol, shellac glaze, simethicone, sodium hydroxide, sodium lauryl sulphate, talc, titanium dioxide and triethyl citrate. The chemical name for naproxen is (S)-6-methoxy-α-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid. Naproxen has the following structure: Naproxen has a molecular weight of 230.26 and a molecular formula of C 14 H 14 O 3 . Naproxen USP is white to off-white practically odourless crystalline powder. It is soluble in chloroform, in dehydrated alcohol and in alcohol, sparingly soluble in ether and practically insoluble in water. The octanol/water partition coefficient of naproxen at pH 6.48 is 1.5. The chemical name for esomeprazole is bis(5-methoxy-2-[(S)-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1H-benzimidazole-1-yl) magnesium amorphous. Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, which is a mixture of the S- and R- isomers. Its molecular formula is (C 17 H 18 N 3 O 3 S) 2 Mg with molecular weight of 713.1. The structural formula is: The esomepraozle magnesium USP is a white to pale cream colored powder. It is slightly soluble in methanol and soluble in N,N-Dimethyl formamide and practically insoluble in heptane and in water. The stability of esomeprazole magnesium is a function of pH; it rapidly degrades in acidic media, but it has acceptable stability under alkaline conditions. At pH 6.8 (buffer), the half-life of the magnesium salt is about 19 hours at 25°C and about 8 hours at 37°C.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Administration • Use the lowest naproxen dose for the shortest duration consistent with individual patient treatment goals. ( 2.1 , 5.1 ). • If a total daily dose of less than 40 mg esomeprazole is more appropriate, a different treatment should be considered.

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, a combination of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium, is indicated in adult and adolescent patients 12 years of age and older weighing at least 38 kg, requiring naproxen for symptomatic relief of arthritis and esomeprazole magnesium to decrease the risk for developing naproxen-associated gastric ulcers. The naproxen component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablet is indicated for relief of signs and symptoms of: • osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis in adults. • juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in adolescent patients. The esomeprazole magnesium component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablet is indicated to decrease the risk of developing naproxen-associated gastric ulcers. Limitations of Use : • Do not substitute naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablet with the single-ingredient products of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. • Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are not recommended for initial treatment of acute pain because the absorption of naproxen is delayed compared to absorption from other naproxen-containing products. • Controlled studies do not extend beyond 6 months [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.4 ), Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are a combination of naproxen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and esomeprazole magnesium, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) indicated in adult patients, requiring naproxen for symptomatic relief of arthritis and esomeprazole magnesium to decrease the risk of developing naproxen ­associated gastric ulcers. The naproxen component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablet is indicated for relief of signs and symptoms of: osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis in adults. juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in adolescent patients. The esomeprazole magnesium component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablet is indicated to decrease the risk of developing naproxen-associated gastric ulcers. ( 1 ) Limitations of Use: Do not substitute naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets with the single-ingredient products of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. ( 1 ) Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are not recommended for initial treatment of acute pain because the absorption of naproxen is delayed compared to absorption from other naproxen-containing products. ( 1 ) Controlled studies do not extend beyond 6 months. ( 1 )

10 OVERDOSAGE There is no clinical data on overdosage with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Overdosage of naproxen: Symptoms following acute NSAID overdosages have been typically limited to lethargy, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, and epigastric pain, which have been generally reversible with supportive care. Gastrointestinal bleeding has occurred. Hypertension, acute renal failure, respiratory depression, and coma have occurred but were rare [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.2 , 5.4 , 5.6 )]. A few patients have experienced seizures, but it is not clear whether or not these were drug-related. It is not known what dose of the drug would be life threatening. The oral LD50 of the drug is 500 mg/kg in rats, 1,200 mg/kg in mice, 4,000 mg/kg in hamsters and greater than 1,000 mg/kg in dogs. In animals 0.5 g/kg of activated charcoal was effective in reducing plasma levels of naproxen. Manage patients with symptomatic and supportive care following an NSAID overdosage. There are no specific antidotes. Hemodialysis does not decrease the plasma concentration of naproxen because of the high degree of its protein binding. Consider emesis and/or activated charcoal (60 to 100 grams in adults, 1 to 2 grams per kg of body weight in pediatric patients) and/or osmotic cathartic in symptomatic patients seen within four hours of ingestion or in patients with a large overdosage (5 to 10 times the recommended dosage). Forced diuresis, alkalinization of urine, hemodialysis, or hemoperfusion may not be useful due to high protein binding. Overdosage of esomeprazole : A single oral dose of esomeprazole at 510 mg/kg (about 124 times the human dose on a body surface area basis) was lethal to rats. The major signs of acute toxicity were reduced motor activity, changes in respiratory frequency, tremor, ataxia, and intermittent clonic convulsions. The symptoms described in connection with deliberate esomeprazole overdose (limited experience of doses in excess of 240 mg/day) are transient. Single doses of 80 mg of esomeprazole were uneventful. Reports of overdosage with omeprazole in humans may also be relevant. Doses ranged up to 2,400 mg (120 times the usual recommended clinical dose). Manifestations were variable, but included confusion, drowsiness, blurred vision, tachycardia, nausea, diaphoresis, flushing, headache, dry mouth, and other adverse reactions similar to those seen in normal clinical experience (see omeprazole package insert - Adverse Reactions). No specific antidote for esomeprazole is known. Since esomeprazole is extensively protein bound, it is not expected to be removed by dialysis. In the event of overdosage, treatment should be symptomatic and supportive. If over-exposure occurs, call your Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 for current information on the management of poisoning or overdosage.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS See Table 3 and Table 4 for clinically significant drug interactions and interactions with diagnostics with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. Table 3: Clinically Significant Drug Interactions with Naproxen and Esomeprazole Magnesium – Affecting Drugs Co-Administered with N aproxen and Esomeprazole Magnesium Delayed-Release Tablets and Interactions with Diagnostics Drugs That Interfere with Hemostasis Clinical Impact : Naproxen • Naproxen and anticoagulants such as warfarin have a synergistic effect on bleeding. The concomitant use of naproxen and anticoagulants have increased the risk of serious bleeding compared to the use of either drug alone. • Serotonin release by platelets plays an important role in hemostasis. Case-control and cohort epidemiological studies showed that concomitant use of drugs that interfere with serotonin reuptake and an NSAID may potentiate the risk of bleeding more than an NSAID alone. Esomeprazole Magnesium • Increased INR and prothrombin time in patients treated with PPIs, including esomeprazole, and warfarin concomitantly. Increases in INR and prothrombin time may lead to abnormal bleeding and even death. •Concomitant use of esomeprazole 40 mg resulted in reduced plasma concentrations of the active metabolite of clopidogrel and a reduction in platelet inhibition [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. • There are no adequate combination studies of a lower dose of esomeprazole or a higher dose of clopidogrel in comparison with the approved dose of clopidogrel. Intervention: Monitor patients with concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets with anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin), antiplatelet agents (e.g., aspirin), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) for signs of bleeding [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.14 ) ]. Clopidogrel : Avoid concomitant use of clopidogrel with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Consider use of alternative anti-platelet therapy [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.22 ) ]. Aspirin Clinical Impact: A pharmacodynamics (PD) study has demonstrated an interaction in which lower dose naproxen (220mg/day or 220mg twice daily) interfered with the antiplatelet effect of low-dose immediate-release aspirin, with the interaction most marked during the washout period of naproxen [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ]. There is reason to expect that the interaction would be present with prescription doses of naproxen or with enteric-coated low-dose aspirin; however, the peak interference with aspirin function may be later than observed in the PD study due to the longer washout period. Controlled clinical studies showed that the concomitant use of NSAIDs and analgesic doses of aspirin does not produce any greater therapeutic effect than the use of NSAIDs alone. In a clinical study, the concomitant use of an NSAID and aspirin was associated with a significantly increased incidence of GI adverse reactions as compared to use of the NSAID alone [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ]. Intervention : Because there may be an increased risk of cardiovascular events following discontinuation of naproxen due to the interference with the antiplatelet effect of aspirin during the washout period, for patients taking low-dose aspirin for cardioprotection who require intermittent analgesics, consider use of an NSAID that does not interfere with the antiplatelet effect of aspirin, or non-NSAID analgesics where appropriate. Concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and analgesic doses of aspirin is not generally recommended because of the increased risk of bleeding [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.12 ) ]. Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are not a substitute for low dose aspirin for cardiovascular protection. ACE Inhibitors, Angiotensin Receptor Blockers, and Beta-Blockers Clinical Impact : • NSAIDs may diminish the antihypertensive effect of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), or beta-blockers (including propranolol). • In patients who are elderly, volume-depleted (including those on diuretic therapy), or have renal impairment, co-administration of an NSAID with ACE inhibitors or ARBs may result in deterioration of renal function, including possible acute renal failure. These effects are usually reversible. Intervention : • During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and ACE-inhibitors, ARBs, or beta-blockers, monitor blood pressure to ensure that the desired blood pressure is obtained. • During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and ACE-inhibitors or ARBs in patients who are elderly, volume-depleted or have impaired renal function, monitor for signs of worsening renal function [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ]. Diuretics Clinical Impact : Clinical studies, as well as post-marketing observations, showed that NSAIDs reduced the natriuretic effect of loop diuretics (e.g., furosemide) and thiazide diuretics in some patients. This effect has been attributed to the NSAID inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis. Intervention : During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets with diuretics, observe patients for signs of worsening renal function, in addition to assuring diuretic efficacy including antihypertensive effects [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ]. Antiretrovirals Clinical Impact : The effect of esomeprazole magnesium on antiretroviral drugs is variable. The clinical importance and mechanisms behind these interactions are not always known. • Decreased exposure of some antiretroviral drugs (e.g., rilpivirine, atazanavir, and nelfinavir) when used concomitantly with esomeprazole magnesium may reduce antiviral effect and promote the development of drug resistance [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. • Increased exposure of other antiretroviral drugs (e.g., saquinavir) when used concomitantly with esomeprazole magnesium may increase toxicity [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. • There are other antiretroviral drugs which do not result in clinically relevant interactions with esomeprazole magnesium. Intervention : Rilpivirine-containing products : Concomitant use with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets is contraindicated [see Contraindications ( 4 )]. Atazanavir : See prescribing information for atazanavir for dosing information. Nelfinavir : Avoid concomitant use with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Saquinavir : See the prescribing information for saquinavir for monitoring of potential saquinavir-related toxicities. Other antiretrovirals : See prescribing information of specific drugs. Cilostazol Clinical Impact : Increased exposure of cilostazol and one of its active metabolites (3,4-­dihydro-cilostazol) when coadministered with omeprazole magnesium, the racemate of esomeprazole [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Intervention: Consider reducing the dose of cilostazol to 50 mg twice daily. Digoxin Clinical Impact : Naproxen • The concomitant use of naproxen with digoxin has been reported to increase the serum concentration and prolong the half-life of digoxin. Esomeprazol e Magnesium • Potential for increased exposure of digoxin [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Intervention : Monitor digoxin concentrations during concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Dose adjustment of digoxin may be needed to maintain therapeutic drug concentrations. Lithium Clinical Impact : NSAIDs have produced elevations of plasma lithium levels and reductions in renal lithium clearance. The mean minimum lithium concentration increased 15%, and the renal clearance decreased by approximately 20%. This effect has been attributed to NSAID inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis. Intervention : During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and lithium, monitor patients for signs of lithium toxicity. Methotrexate Clinical Impact : Naproxen • Concomitant use of NSAIDs and methotrexate may increase the risk for methotrexate toxicity (e.g., neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, renal dysfunction). Esomeprazole Magnesium • Concomitant use of esomeprazole magnesium with methotrexate (primarily at high dose) may elevate and prolong serum concentrations of methotrexate and/or its metabolite hydroxymethotrexate, possibly leading to methotrexate toxicities [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.27 ) ]. Intervention: During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and methotrexate, monitor patients for methotrexate toxicity. A temporary withdrawal of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets may be considered in some patients receiving high-dose methotrexate. Cyclosporine Clinical Impact : Concomitant use of naproxen and cyclosporine may increase cyclosporine’s nephrotoxicity. Intervention: During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and cyclosporine, monitor patients for signs of worsening renal function. Tacrolimus Clinical Impact : Concomitant use of esomeprazole magnesium and tacrolimus may increase exposure of tacrolimus Intervention : During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and tacrolimus, monitor tacrolimus whole blood concentrations. NSAIDs and Salicylates Clinical Impact : Concomitant use of naproxen with other NSAIDs or salicylates (e.g., diflunisal, salsalate) increases the risk of GI toxicity, with little or no increase in efficacy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ]. Intervention: The concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets with other NSAIDs or salicylates is not recommended. Pemetrexed Clinical Impact : Concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and pemetrexed may increase the risk of pemetrexed-associated myelosuppression, renal, and GI toxicity (see the pemetrexed prescribing information). Intervention: During concomitant use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and pemetrexed, in patients with renal impairment whose creatinine clearance ranges from 45 to 79 mL/min, monitor for myelosuppression, renal and GI toxicity. Drugs Dependent on Gastric pH for Absorption (e.g., iron salts, erlotinib, mycophenoloate mofetil, ketoconazole) Clinical Impact: Esomeprazole magnesium can reduce the absorption of other drugs due to its effect on reducing intragastric acidity Intervention: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF): Co-administration of omeprazole, of which esomeprazole magnesium is an enantiomer, in healthy subjects and in transplant patients receiving MMF has been reported to reduce the exposure to the active metabolite, mycophenolic acid (MPA), possibly due to a decrease in MMF solubility at an increased gastric pH. The clinical relevance of reduced MPA exposure on organ rejection has not been established in transplant patients receiving esomeprazole and MMF. Use naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets with caution in transplant patients receiving MMF [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. See the prescribing information for other drugs dependent on gastric pH for absorption. Interactions with Investigations of Neuroendocrine Tumors Clinical Impact : Serum chromogranin A (CgA) levels increase secondary to PPI-induced decreases in gastric acidity. The increased CgA levels may cause false positive results in diagnostic investigations for neuroendocrine tumors [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.26 ) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ]. Intervention : Temporarily stop naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets treatment at least 14 days before assessing CgA levels and consider repeating the test if initial CgA levels are high. If serial tests are performed (e.g. for monitoring), the same commercial laboratory should be used for testing, as reference ranges between tests may vary. Diazepam Clinical Impact: Increased exposure of diazepam [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Intervention: Monitor patients for increased sedation and adjust the dose of diazepam as needed. Table 4: Clinically Significant Interactions with Esomeprazole Magnesium - Affecting Co-Administered Drugs CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 Inducers Clinical Impact : Decreased exposure of esomeprazole when used concomitantly with strong inducers [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Intervention: St. John’s Wort, rifampin : Avoid concomitant use with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets [see Warnings and Precautions (5.24) ]. CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 Inhibitors Clinical Impact : Increased exposure of esomeprazole [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Intervention : Voriconazole : Avoid concomitant use with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. See full prescribing information for a list of clinically important drug interactions. ( 7 )

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets consists of an immediate-release esomeprazole magnesium layer and an enteric-coated naproxen core. As a result, esomeprazole is released first in the stomach, prior to the dissolution of naproxen in the small intestine. The enteric coating prevents naproxen release at pH levels below 5.5. The mechanism of action of the naproxen anion, like that of other NSAIDs, is not completely understood but inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2). Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties contributed by the naproxen component. Naproxen is a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis in vitro . Naproxen concentrations reached during therapy have produced in vivo effects. Prostaglandins sensitize afferent nerves and potentiate the action of bradykinin in inducing pain in animal models. Prostaglandins are mediators of inflammation. Because naproxen is an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, its mode of action may be due to an increase of prostaglandins in peripheral tissues. Esomeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that suppresses gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of the H + /K + -ATPase in the gastric parietal cell. Esomeprazole is protonated and converted in the acidic compartment of the parietal cell forming the active inhibitor, the achiral sulphenamide. By acting specifically on the proton pump, esomeprazole blocks the final step in acid production, thus reducing gastric acidity. This effect is dose-related up to a daily dose of 20 to 40 mg and leads to inhibition of gastric acid secretion. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics Interaction with Aspirin In a healthy volunteer study, 10 days of concomitant administration of naproxen 220 mg once- daily with low-dose immediate-release aspirin (81 mg) showed an interaction with the antiplatelet activity of aspirin as measured by % serum thromboxane B2 inhibition at 24 hours following the day 10 dose [98.7% (aspirin alone) vs 93.1% (naproxen and aspirin)]. The interaction was observed even following discontinuation of naproxen on day 11 (while aspirin dose was continued) but normalized by day 13. In the same study, the interaction was greater when naproxen was administered 30 minutes prior to aspirin [98.7% vs 87.7%] and minimal when aspirin was administered 30 minutes prior to naproxen [98.7% vs 95.4%]. Following administration of naproxen 220 mg twice-daily with low-dose immediate-release aspirin (first naproxen dose given 30 minutes prior to aspirin), the interaction was minimal at 24 h following day 10 dose [98.7% vs 95.7%]. However, the interaction was more prominent after discontinuation of naproxen (washout) on day 11 [98.7% vs 84.3%] and did not normalize completely by day 13 [98.5% vs 90.7%] [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Antisecretory Activity The effect of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets on intragastric pH was determined in 25 healthy volunteers in one study. Three naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets combinations (naproxen 500 mg combined with either esomeprazole 10, 20, or 30 mg) were administered twice daily over 9 days. The results are shown in the following table: Table 5: Effect on Intragastric pH on Day 9 (N=25) Naproxen 500 mg combined with esomeprazole 10 mg 20 mg 30 mg % Time Gastric pH >4 † 41.1 (3.0) 71.5 (3.0) 76.8 (3.0) Coefficient of variation 55% 18% 16% † Gastric pH was measured over a 24-hour period LS Mean (SE) Serum Gastrin Effects The effect of esomeprazole on serum gastrin concentrations was evaluated in approximately 2,700 patients in clinical trials up to 8 weeks and in over 1,300 patients for up to 6 to 12 months. The mean fasting gastrin level increased in a dose-related manner. This increase reached a plateau within two to three months of therapy and returned to baseline levels within four weeks after discontinuation of therapy. Increased gastrin causes enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia and increased serum Chromogranin A (CgA) levels. The increased CgA levels may cause false positive results in diagnostic investigations for neuroendocrine tumors. Healthcare providers should temporarily stop esomeprazole treatment at least 14 days before assessing CgA levels and consider repeating the test if initial CgA levels are high. Enterochromaffin-like (ECL) Cell Effects In over 1,000 patients treated with esomeprazole (10, 20 or 40 mg/day) up to 6 to 12 months, the prevalence of ECL cell hyperplasia increased with time and dose. No patient developed ECL cell carcinoids, dysplasia, or neoplasia in the gastric mucosa. Endocrine Effects Esomeprazole had no effect on thyroid function when given in oral doses of 20 or 40 mg for 4 weeks. Other effects of esomeprazole on the endocrine system were assessed using omeprazole studies. Omeprazole given in oral doses of 30 or 40 mg for 2 to 4 weeks had no effect on carbohydrate metabolism, circulating levels of parathyroid hormone, cortisol, estradiol, testosterone, prolactin, cholecystokinin or secretin. Effects on Gastrointestinal Microbial Ecology Decreased gastric acidity due to any means including proton pump inhibitors, increases gastric counts of bacteria normally present in the gastrointestinal tract. Treatment with proton pump inhibitors may lead to slightly increased risk of gastrointestinal infections such as Salmonella and Campylobacter and, in hospitalized patients, possibly also Clostridium difficile . 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption Naproxen At steady state following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, peak plasma concentrations of naproxen are reached on average 3 hours following both the morning and the evening dose. Bioequivalence between naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and enteric-coated naproxen, based on both area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (C max ) of naproxen, has been demonstrated for both the 375 mg and 500 mg doses. Naproxen is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract with an in vivo bioavailability of 95%. Steady-state levels of naproxen are reached in 4 to 5 days. Esomeprazole Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, esomeprazole is rapidly absorbed with peak plasma concentration reached within on average, 0.43 to 1.2 hours, following the morning and evening dose on both the first day of administration and at steady state. The peak plasma concentrations of esomeprazole are higher at steady state compared to on first day of dosing of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Figure 1 represents the pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 500 mg/20 mg. Figure 1: Mean plasma concentrations of naproxen and esomeprazole following single dose administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets (500mg/20 mg) Food Effect Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets together with high-fat food in healthy volunteers does not affect the extent of absorption of naproxen but significantly prolongs t max by 10 hours and decreases peak plasma concentration (C max ) by about 12%. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets together with high-fat food in healthy volunteers delays t max of esomeprazole by 1 hour and significantly reduces the extent of absorption, resulting in 52% and 75% reductions of area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (C max ), respectively. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 30 minutes before high-fat food intake in healthy volunteers does not affect the extent of absorption of naproxen but delays the absorption by about 4 hours and decreases peak plasma concentration (C max ) by about 17%, but has no significant effect on the rate or extent of esomeprazole absorption compared to administration under fasted conditions [see Dosage and Administration (2) ]. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 60 minutes before high-fat food intake in healthy volunteers has no effect on the rate and extent of naproxen absorption; however, increases the esomeprazole AUC by 25% and C max by 50% compared to administration under fasted conditions. This increase in esomeprazole C max does not raise a safety issue since the approved dosing regimen of esomeprazole at 40 mg QD would result in higher C max [see Dosage and Administration (2) ]. Therefore, naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets should be taken at least 30 minutes before the meal. Distribution Naproxen Naproxen has a volume of distribution of 0.16 L/kg. At therapeutic levels naproxen is greater than 99% albumin-bound. At doses of naproxen greater than 500 mg/day there is less than proportional increase in plasma levels due to an increase in clearance caused by saturation of plasma protein binding at higher doses (average trough C ss 36.5, 49.2 and 56.4 mg/L with 500, 1,000 and 1,500 mg daily doses of naproxen, respectively). The naproxen anion has been found in the milk of lactating women at a concentration equivalent to approximately 1% of maximum naproxen concentration in plasma [see Use in Specific Populations (8.2) ]. Esomeprazole The apparent volume of distribution at steady state in healthy subjects is approximately 16L. Esomeprazole is 97% plasma protein bound. Elimination Metabolism Naproxen Naproxen is extensively metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 system (CYP), CYP2C9 and CYP1A2, to 6-0-desmethyl naproxen. Neither the parent drug nor the metabolites induce metabolizing enzymes. Both naproxen and 6-0-desmethyl naproxen are further metabolized to their respective acylglucuronide conjugated metabolites. Consistent with the half-life of naproxen, the area under the plasma concentration time curve increases with repeated dosing of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily. Esomeprazole Esomeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver by the CYP enzyme system. The major part of the metabolism of esomeprazole is dependent on the polymorphic CYP2C19, responsible for the formation of the hydroxyl- and desmethyl metabolites of esomeprazole. The remaining part is dependent on another specific isoform CYP3A4, responsible for the formation of esomeprazole sulphone, the main metabolite in plasma. The major metabolites of esomeprazole have no effect on gastric acid secretion. The area under the plasma esomeprazole concentration-time curve increases with repeated administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. This increase is dose-dependent and results in a non-linear dose-AUC relationship after repeated administration. An increased absorption of esomeprazole with repeated administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets probably also contributes to the time-and dose-dependency. Excretion Naproxen Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, the mean elimination half-life for naproxen is approximately 15 hours following the evening dose, with no change with repeated dosing. The clearance of naproxen is 0.13 mL/min/kg. Approximately 95% of the naproxen from any dose is excreted in the urine, primarily as naproxen (<1%), 6-0-desmethyl naproxen (<1%) or their conjugates (66% to 92%). Small amounts, 3% or less of the administered dose, are excreted in the feces. In patients with renal failure, metabolites may accumulate [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ]. Esomeprazole Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, the mean elimination half-life of esomeprazole is approximately 1 hour following both the morning and evening dose on day 1, with a slightly longer elimination half-life at steady state (1.2 to 1.5 hours). Almost 80% of an oral dose of esomeprazole is excreted as metabolites in the urine, the remainder in the feces. Less than 1% of the parent drug is found in the urine. Specific Populations Geriatric Patients There is no specific data on the pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in patients over age 65. Studies indicate that although total plasma concentration of naproxen is unchanged, the unbound plasma fraction of naproxen is increased in the elderly, although the unbound fraction is <1% of the total naproxen concentration. Unbound trough naproxen concentrations in elderly subjects have been reported to range from 0.12% to 0.19% of total naproxen concentration, compared with 0.05% to 0.075% in younger subjects. The clinical significance of this finding is unclear, although it is possible that the increase in free naproxen concentration could be associated with an increase in the rate of adverse events per a given dosage in some elderly patients [see Adverse Reactions (6) and Use in Specific Populations (8.5) ]. The AUC and C max values of esomeprazole were slightly higher (25% and 18%, respectively) in the elderly as compared to younger subjects at steady state. Dosage adjustment for the esomeprazole component based on age is not necessary. Male and Female Patients The AUC and C max values of esomeprazole were slightly higher (13%) in females than in males at steady state. Dosage adjustment for the esomeprazole component based on gender is not necessary. Racial or Ethnic Groups Pharmacokinetic differences due to race have not been studied for naproxen. Approximately 3% of Caucasians and 15 to 20% of Asians lack a functional CYP2C19 enzyme and are called poor metabolizers. In these individuals the metabolism of esomeprazole is probably mainly catalyzed by CYP3A4. After repeated once-daily administration of 40 mg esomeprazole, the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve was approximately 100% higher in poor metabolizers than in subjects having a functional CYP2C19 enzyme (extensive metabolizers). Patients with Renal Impairment The pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium or naproxen have not been determined in subjects with renal impairment. Given that naproxen, its metabolites and conjugates are primarily excreted by the kidney, the potential exists for naproxen metabolites to accumulate in the presence of renal impairment. Elimination of naproxen is decreased in patients with severe renal impairment. Naproxen­-containing products, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium, is not recommended for use in patients with moderate to severe and severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 ml/min) [see Dosage and Administration ( 2 ), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 ), Use in Specific Populations ( 8.7 )]. No studies have been performed with esomeprazole in patients with decreased renal function. Since the kidney is responsible for the excretion of the metabolites of esomeprazole but not for the elimination of the parent compound, the metabolism of esomeprazole is not expected to be changed in patients with impaired renal function. Patients with Hepatic Impairment The pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets or naproxen have not been determined in subjects with hepatic impairment. In patients with severe hepatic impairment, naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets should be avoided due to increase of risk of NSAID associated bleeding and/or renal failure associated with naproxen. Chronic alcoholic liver disease and probably also other forms of cirrhosis reduce the total plasma concentration of naproxen, but the plasma concentration of unbound naproxen is increased. The implication of this finding for the naproxen component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets dosing is unknown but it is prudent to use the lowest effective dose. The AUCs of esomeprazole in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Class C) have been shown to be 2 to 3 times higher than in patients with normal liver function. For this reason, it has been recommended that esomeprazole doses not exceed 20 mg daily in patients with severe hepatic impairment. However, there is no dose adjustment necessary for patients with Child Pugh Class A and B for the esomeprazole component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. There is no naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets dosage form that contains less than 20 mg esomeprazole for twice daily dosing [see Dosage and Administration (2), Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ]. Drug Interaction Studies Effect of Naproxen on Other Drugs Aspirin : When NSAIDs were administered with aspirin, the protein binding of NSAIDs were reduced, although the clearance of free NSAID was not altered. The clinical significance of this interaction is not known. See Table 3 for clinically significant drug interactions of NSAIDs with aspirin [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Effect of Esomeprazole on Other Drugs Cytochrome P 450 Interactions Esomeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that esomeprazole is not likely to inhibit CYPs 1A2, 2A6, 2C9, 2D6, 2E1 and 3A4. No clinically relevant interactions with drugs metabolized by these CYP enzymes would be expected. Drug interaction studies have shown that esomeprazole does not have any clinically significant interactions with phenytoin, warfarin, quinidine, clarithromycin or amoxicillin. Clopidogrel : Results from a crossover study in healthy subjects have shown a pharmacokinetic interaction between clopidogrel (300 mg loading dose/75 mg daily maintenance dose) and esomeprazole (40 mg p.o. once daily) when co-administered for 30 days. Exposure to the active metabolite of clopidogrel was reduced by 35% to 40% over this time period. Pharmacodynamic parameters were also measured and demonstrated that the change in inhibition of platelet aggregation was related to the change in the exposure to clopidogrel active metabolite [see Warnings and Precautions (5.21) , Drug Interactions (7) ]. Mycophenolate Mofetil : Administration of omeprazole 20 mg twice daily for 4 days and a single 1,000 mg dose of MMF approximately one hour after the last dose of omeprazole to 12 healthy subjects in a cross-over study resulted in a 52% reduction in the C max and 23% reduction in the AUC of MPA [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Cilostazol : Omeprazole acts as an inhibitor of CYP2C19. Omeprazole, given in doses of 40 mg daily for one week to 20 healthy subjects in cross-over study, increased C max and AUC of cilostazol by 18% and 26% respectively. C max and AUC of one of its active metabolites, 3,4­ dihydrocilostazol, which has 4 to 7 times the activity of cilostazol, were increased by 29% and 69% respectively [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Nelfinavir : Following multiple doses of nelfinavir (1,250 mg, twice daily) and omeprazole (40 mg once a day), AUC was decreased by 36% and 92%, C max by 37% and 89% and C min by 39% and 75% respectively for nelfinavir and main oxidative metabolite, hydroxy-t-butylamide (M8) [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Atazanavir : Following multiple doses of atazanavir (400 mg, once a day) and omeprazole (40 mg, once a day, 2 hr before atazanavir), AUC was decreased by 94%, C max by 96%, and C min by 95% [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Saquinavir : Elevated serum levels have been reported with an increase in AUC by 82% in C max by 75% and in C min by 106% following multiple dosing of saquinavir/ritonavir (1,000/100 mg) twice a day for 15 days with omeprazole 40 mg once a day co-administered on days 11 to 15 [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Diazepam : Co-administration of esomeprazole 30 mg and diazepam, a CYP2C19 substrate, resulted in a 45% decrease in clearance of diazepam [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Digoxin : Concomitant administration of omeprazole 20 mg once daily and digoxin in healthy subjects increased the bioavailability of digoxin by 10% (30% in two subjects) [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Effect of Other Drugs on Esomeprazole Because esomeprazole is metabolized by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4, inducers and inhibitors of these enzymes may potentially alter exposure of esomeprazole. St. John’s Wort : In a cross-over study in 12 healthy male subjects, St. John’s Wort (300 mg three times daily for 14 days) significantly decreased the systemic exposure of omeprazole in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (C max and AUC decreased by 37.5% and 37.9%, respectively) and extensive metabolizers (C max and AUC decreased by 49.6% and 43.9%, respectively) [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.25 ) , Drug Interactions (7) ]. Voriconazole : Concomitant administration of omeprazole and voriconazole (a combined inhibitor of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4) resulted in more than doubling of the omeprazole exposure. When voriconazole (400 mg every 12 hours for one day, followed by 200 mg once daily for 6 days) was given with omeprazole (40 mg once daily for 7 days) to healthy subjects, the steady-state C max and AUC 0-24 of omeprazole significantly increased: an average of 2 times (90% CI: 1.8, 2.6) and 4 times (90% CI: 3.3, 4.4), respectively, as compared to when omeprazole was given without voriconazole [see Drug Interactions (7) ].

This effect is dose-related up to a daily dose of 20 to 40 mg and leads to inhibition of gastric acid secretion.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics Interaction with Aspirin In a healthy volunteer study, 10 days of concomitant administration of naproxen 220 mg once- daily with low-dose immediate-release aspirin (81 mg) showed an interaction with the antiplatelet activity of aspirin as measured by % serum thromboxane B2 inhibition at 24 hours following the day 10 dose [98.7% (aspirin alone) vs 93.1% (naproxen and aspirin)]. The interaction was observed even following discontinuation of naproxen on day 11 (while aspirin dose was continued) but normalized by day 13. In the same study, the interaction was greater when naproxen was administered 30 minutes prior to aspirin [98.7% vs 87.7%] and minimal when aspirin was administered 30 minutes prior to naproxen [98.7% vs 95.4%]. Following administration of naproxen 220 mg twice-daily with low-dose immediate-release aspirin (first naproxen dose given 30 minutes prior to aspirin), the interaction was minimal at 24 h following day 10 dose [98.7% vs 95.7%]. However, the interaction was more prominent after discontinuation of naproxen (washout) on day 11 [98.7% vs 84.3%] and did not normalize completely by day 13 [98.5% vs 90.7%] [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Antisecretory Activity The effect of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets on intragastric pH was determined in 25 healthy volunteers in one study. Three naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets combinations (naproxen 500 mg combined with either esomeprazole 10, 20, or 30 mg) were administered twice daily over 9 days. The results are shown in the following table: Table 5: Effect on Intragastric pH on Day 9 (N=25) Naproxen 500 mg combined with esomeprazole 10 mg 20 mg 30 mg % Time Gastric pH >4 † 41.1 (3.0) 71.5 (3.0) 76.8 (3.0) Coefficient of variation 55% 18% 16% † Gastric pH was measured over a 24-hour period LS Mean (SE) Serum Gastrin Effects The effect of esomeprazole on serum gastrin concentrations was evaluated in approximately 2,700 patients in clinical trials up to 8 weeks and in over 1,300 patients for up to 6 to 12 months. The mean fasting gastrin level increased in a dose-related manner. This increase reached a plateau within two to three months of therapy and returned to baseline levels within four weeks after discontinuation of therapy. Increased gastrin causes enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia and increased serum Chromogranin A (CgA) levels. The increased CgA levels may cause false positive results in diagnostic investigations for neuroendocrine tumors. Healthcare providers should temporarily stop esomeprazole treatment at least 14 days before assessing CgA levels and consider repeating the test if initial CgA levels are high. Enterochromaffin-like (ECL) Cell Effects In over 1,000 patients treated with esomeprazole (10, 20 or 40 mg/day) up to 6 to 12 months, the prevalence of ECL cell hyperplasia increased with time and dose. No patient developed ECL cell carcinoids, dysplasia, or neoplasia in the gastric mucosa. Endocrine Effects Esomeprazole had no effect on thyroid function when given in oral doses of 20 or 40 mg for 4 weeks. Other effects of esomeprazole on the endocrine system were assessed using omeprazole studies. Omeprazole given in oral doses of 30 or 40 mg for 2 to 4 weeks had no effect on carbohydrate metabolism, circulating levels of parathyroid hormone, cortisol, estradiol, testosterone, prolactin, cholecystokinin or secretin. Effects on Gastrointestinal Microbial Ecology Decreased gastric acidity due to any means including proton pump inhibitors, increases gastric counts of bacteria normally present in the gastrointestinal tract. Treatment with proton pump inhibitors may lead to slightly increased risk of gastrointestinal infections such as Salmonella and Campylobacter and, in hospitalized patients, possibly also Clostridium difficile .

12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption Naproxen At steady state following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, peak plasma concentrations of naproxen are reached on average 3 hours following both the morning and the evening dose. Bioequivalence between naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and enteric-coated naproxen, based on both area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (C max ) of naproxen, has been demonstrated for both the 375 mg and 500 mg doses. Naproxen is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract with an in vivo bioavailability of 95%. Steady-state levels of naproxen are reached in 4 to 5 days. Esomeprazole Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, esomeprazole is rapidly absorbed with peak plasma concentration reached within on average, 0.43 to 1.2 hours, following the morning and evening dose on both the first day of administration and at steady state. The peak plasma concentrations of esomeprazole are higher at steady state compared to on first day of dosing of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. Figure 1 represents the pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 500 mg/20 mg. Figure 1: Mean plasma concentrations of naproxen and esomeprazole following single dose administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets (500mg/20 mg) Food Effect Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets together with high-fat food in healthy volunteers does not affect the extent of absorption of naproxen but significantly prolongs t max by 10 hours and decreases peak plasma concentration (C max ) by about 12%. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets together with high-fat food in healthy volunteers delays t max of esomeprazole by 1 hour and significantly reduces the extent of absorption, resulting in 52% and 75% reductions of area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (C max ), respectively. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 30 minutes before high-fat food intake in healthy volunteers does not affect the extent of absorption of naproxen but delays the absorption by about 4 hours and decreases peak plasma concentration (C max ) by about 17%, but has no significant effect on the rate or extent of esomeprazole absorption compared to administration under fasted conditions [see Dosage and Administration (2) ]. Administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets 60 minutes before high-fat food intake in healthy volunteers has no effect on the rate and extent of naproxen absorption; however, increases the esomeprazole AUC by 25% and C max by 50% compared to administration under fasted conditions. This increase in esomeprazole C max does not raise a safety issue since the approved dosing regimen of esomeprazole at 40 mg QD would result in higher C max [see Dosage and Administration (2) ]. Therefore, naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets should be taken at least 30 minutes before the meal. Distribution Naproxen Naproxen has a volume of distribution of 0.16 L/kg. At therapeutic levels naproxen is greater than 99% albumin-bound. At doses of naproxen greater than 500 mg/day there is less than proportional increase in plasma levels due to an increase in clearance caused by saturation of plasma protein binding at higher doses (average trough C ss 36.5, 49.2 and 56.4 mg/L with 500, 1,000 and 1,500 mg daily doses of naproxen, respectively). The naproxen anion has been found in the milk of lactating women at a concentration equivalent to approximately 1% of maximum naproxen concentration in plasma [see Use in Specific Populations (8.2) ]. Esomeprazole The apparent volume of distribution at steady state in healthy subjects is approximately 16L. Esomeprazole is 97% plasma protein bound. Elimination Metabolism Naproxen Naproxen is extensively metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 system (CYP), CYP2C9 and CYP1A2, to 6-0-desmethyl naproxen. Neither the parent drug nor the metabolites induce metabolizing enzymes. Both naproxen and 6-0-desmethyl naproxen are further metabolized to their respective acylglucuronide conjugated metabolites. Consistent with the half-life of naproxen, the area under the plasma concentration time curve increases with repeated dosing of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily. Esomeprazole Esomeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver by the CYP enzyme system. The major part of the metabolism of esomeprazole is dependent on the polymorphic CYP2C19, responsible for the formation of the hydroxyl- and desmethyl metabolites of esomeprazole. The remaining part is dependent on another specific isoform CYP3A4, responsible for the formation of esomeprazole sulphone, the main metabolite in plasma. The major metabolites of esomeprazole have no effect on gastric acid secretion. The area under the plasma esomeprazole concentration-time curve increases with repeated administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. This increase is dose-dependent and results in a non-linear dose-AUC relationship after repeated administration. An increased absorption of esomeprazole with repeated administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets probably also contributes to the time-and dose-dependency. Excretion Naproxen Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, the mean elimination half-life for naproxen is approximately 15 hours following the evening dose, with no change with repeated dosing. The clearance of naproxen is 0.13 mL/min/kg. Approximately 95% of the naproxen from any dose is excreted in the urine, primarily as naproxen (<1%), 6-0-desmethyl naproxen (<1%) or their conjugates (66% to 92%). Small amounts, 3% or less of the administered dose, are excreted in the feces. In patients with renal failure, metabolites may accumulate [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ]. Esomeprazole Following administration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets twice daily, the mean elimination half-life of esomeprazole is approximately 1 hour following both the morning and evening dose on day 1, with a slightly longer elimination half-life at steady state (1.2 to 1.5 hours). Almost 80% of an oral dose of esomeprazole is excreted as metabolites in the urine, the remainder in the feces. Less than 1% of the parent drug is found in the urine. Specific Populations Geriatric Patients There is no specific data on the pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in patients over age 65. Studies indicate that although total plasma concentration of naproxen is unchanged, the unbound plasma fraction of naproxen is increased in the elderly, although the unbound fraction is <1% of the total naproxen concentration. Unbound trough naproxen concentrations in elderly subjects have been reported to range from 0.12% to 0.19% of total naproxen concentration, compared with 0.05% to 0.075% in younger subjects. The clinical significance of this finding is unclear, although it is possible that the increase in free naproxen concentration could be associated with an increase in the rate of adverse events per a given dosage in some elderly patients [see Adverse Reactions (6) and Use in Specific Populations (8.5) ]. The AUC and C max values of esomeprazole were slightly higher (25% and 18%, respectively) in the elderly as compared to younger subjects at steady state. Dosage adjustment for the esomeprazole component based on age is not necessary. Male and Female Patients The AUC and C max values of esomeprazole were slightly higher (13%) in females than in males at steady state. Dosage adjustment for the esomeprazole component based on gender is not necessary. Racial or Ethnic Groups Pharmacokinetic differences due to race have not been studied for naproxen. Approximately 3% of Caucasians and 15 to 20% of Asians lack a functional CYP2C19 enzyme and are called poor metabolizers. In these individuals the metabolism of esomeprazole is probably mainly catalyzed by CYP3A4. After repeated once-daily administration of 40 mg esomeprazole, the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve was approximately 100% higher in poor metabolizers than in subjects having a functional CYP2C19 enzyme (extensive metabolizers). Patients with Renal Impairment The pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium or naproxen have not been determined in subjects with renal impairment. Given that naproxen, its metabolites and conjugates are primarily excreted by the kidney, the potential exists for naproxen metabolites to accumulate in the presence of renal impairment. Elimination of naproxen is decreased in patients with severe renal impairment. Naproxen­-containing products, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium, is not recommended for use in patients with moderate to severe and severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 ml/min) [see Dosage and Administration ( 2 ), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 ), Use in Specific Populations ( 8.7 )]. No studies have been performed with esomeprazole in patients with decreased renal function. Since the kidney is responsible for the excretion of the metabolites of esomeprazole but not for the elimination of the parent compound, the metabolism of esomeprazole is not expected to be changed in patients with impaired renal function. Patients with Hepatic Impairment The pharmacokinetics of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets or naproxen have not been determined in subjects with hepatic impairment. In patients with severe hepatic impairment, naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets should be avoided due to increase of risk of NSAID associated bleeding and/or renal failure associated with naproxen. Chronic alcoholic liver disease and probably also other forms of cirrhosis reduce the total plasma concentration of naproxen, but the plasma concentration of unbound naproxen is increased. The implication of this finding for the naproxen component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets dosing is unknown but it is prudent to use the lowest effective dose. The AUCs of esomeprazole in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Class C) have been shown to be 2 to 3 times higher than in patients with normal liver function. For this reason, it has been recommended that esomeprazole doses not exceed 20 mg daily in patients with severe hepatic impairment. However, there is no dose adjustment necessary for patients with Child Pugh Class A and B for the esomeprazole component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets. There is no naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets dosage form that contains less than 20 mg esomeprazole for twice daily dosing [see Dosage and Administration (2), Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ]. Drug Interaction Studies Effect of Naproxen on Other Drugs Aspirin : When NSAIDs were administered with aspirin, the protein binding of NSAIDs were reduced, although the clearance of free NSAID was not altered. The clinical significance of this interaction is not known. See Table 3 for clinically significant drug interactions of NSAIDs with aspirin [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Effect of Esomeprazole on Other Drugs Cytochrome P 450 Interactions Esomeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that esomeprazole is not likely to inhibit CYPs 1A2, 2A6, 2C9, 2D6, 2E1 and 3A4. No clinically relevant interactions with drugs metabolized by these CYP enzymes would be expected. Drug interaction studies have shown that esomeprazole does not have any clinically significant interactions with phenytoin, warfarin, quinidine, clarithromycin or amoxicillin. Clopidogrel : Results from a crossover study in healthy subjects have shown a pharmacokinetic interaction between clopidogrel (300 mg loading dose/75 mg daily maintenance dose) and esomeprazole (40 mg p.o. once daily) when co-administered for 30 days. Exposure to the active metabolite of clopidogrel was reduced by 35% to 40% over this time period. Pharmacodynamic parameters were also measured and demonstrated that the change in inhibition of platelet aggregation was related to the change in the exposure to clopidogrel active metabolite [see Warnings and Precautions (5.21) , Drug Interactions (7) ]. Mycophenolate Mofetil : Administration of omeprazole 20 mg twice daily for 4 days and a single 1,000 mg dose of MMF approximately one hour after the last dose of omeprazole to 12 healthy subjects in a cross-over study resulted in a 52% reduction in the C max and 23% reduction in the AUC of MPA [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Cilostazol : Omeprazole acts as an inhibitor of CYP2C19. Omeprazole, given in doses of 40 mg daily for one week to 20 healthy subjects in cross-over study, increased C max and AUC of cilostazol by 18% and 26% respectively. C max and AUC of one of its active metabolites, 3,4­ dihydrocilostazol, which has 4 to 7 times the activity of cilostazol, were increased by 29% and 69% respectively [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Nelfinavir : Following multiple doses of nelfinavir (1,250 mg, twice daily) and omeprazole (40 mg once a day), AUC was decreased by 36% and 92%, C max by 37% and 89% and C min by 39% and 75% respectively for nelfinavir and main oxidative metabolite, hydroxy-t-butylamide (M8) [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Atazanavir : Following multiple doses of atazanavir (400 mg, once a day) and omeprazole (40 mg, once a day, 2 hr before atazanavir), AUC was decreased by 94%, C max by 96%, and C min by 95% [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Saquinavir : Elevated serum levels have been reported with an increase in AUC by 82% in C max by 75% and in C min by 106% following multiple dosing of saquinavir/ritonavir (1,000/100 mg) twice a day for 15 days with omeprazole 40 mg once a day co-administered on days 11 to 15 [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Diazepam : Co-administration of esomeprazole 30 mg and diazepam, a CYP2C19 substrate, resulted in a 45% decrease in clearance of diazepam [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Digoxin : Concomitant administration of omeprazole 20 mg once daily and digoxin in healthy subjects increased the bioavailability of digoxin by 10% (30% in two subjects) [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Effect of Other Drugs on Esomeprazole Because esomeprazole is metabolized by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4, inducers and inhibitors of these enzymes may potentially alter exposure of esomeprazole. St. John’s Wort : In a cross-over study in 12 healthy male subjects, St. John’s Wort (300 mg three times daily for 14 days) significantly decreased the systemic exposure of omeprazole in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (C max and AUC decreased by 37.5% and 37.9%, respectively) and extensive metabolizers (C max and AUC decreased by 49.6% and 43.9%, respectively) [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.25 ) , Drug Interactions (7) ]. Voriconazole : Concomitant administration of omeprazole and voriconazole (a combined inhibitor of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4) resulted in more than doubling of the omeprazole exposure. When voriconazole (400 mg every 12 hours for one day, followed by 200 mg once daily for 6 days) was given with omeprazole (40 mg once daily for 7 days) to healthy subjects, the steady-state C max and AUC 0-24 of omeprazole significantly increased: an average of 2 times (90% CI: 1.8, 2.6) and 4 times (90% CI: 3.3, 4.4), respectively, as compared to when omeprazole was given without voriconazole [see Drug Interactions (7) ].

13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology Naproxen Reproduction studies have been performed in rats at 20 mg/kg/day (125 mg/m 2 /day, 0.23 times the maximum recommended human dose), rabbits at 20 mg/kg/day (220 mg/m 2 /day, 0.27 times the maximum recommended human dose), and mice at 170 mg/kg/day (510 mg/m 2 /day, 0.28 times the maximum recommended human dose) with no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to the drug. However, animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response. Esomeprazole – Reproduction Studies Reproduction studies have been performed in rats at oral doses up to 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) and in rabbits at oral doses up to 86 mg/kg/day (about 42 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) and have revealed no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to esomeprazole [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ]. Esomeprazole – Juvenile Animal Data A 28-day toxicity study with a 14-day recovery phase was conducted in juvenile rats with esomeprazole magnesium at doses of 70 to 280 mg /kg/day (about 17 to 68 times a daily oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). An increase in the number of deaths at the high dose of 280 mg /kg/day was observed when juvenile rats were administered esomeprazole magnesium from postnatal day 7 through postnatal day 35. In addition, doses equal to or greater than 140 mg/kg/day (about 34 times a daily oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis), produced treatment-related decreases in body weight (approximately 14%) and body weight gain, decreases in femur weight and femur length, and affected overall growth. Comparable findings described above have also been observed in this study with another esomeprazole salt, esomeprazole strontium, at equimolar doses of esomeprazole.

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, and Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Naproxen A 2-year study was performed in rats to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of naproxen at rat doses of 8, 16, and 24 mg/kg/day (0.05, 0.1, and 0.16 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day based on a body surface area comparison). The maximum dose used was 0.28 times the highest recommended human dose. No evidence of tumorigenicity was found. Esomeprazole The carcinogenic potential of esomeprazole was assessed using omeprazole studies, of which esomeprazole is an enantiomer. In two 24-month oral carcinogenicity studies in rats, omeprazole at daily doses of 1.7, 3.4, 13.8, 44 and 140.8 mg/kg/day (about 0.41 to 34.2 times the human dose of 40 mg/day expressed on a body surface area basis) produced gastric ECL cell carcinoids in a dose-related manner in both male and female rats; the incidence of this effect was markedly higher in female rats, which had higher blood levels of omeprazole. Gastric carcinoids seldom occur in the untreated rat. In addition, ECL cell hyperplasia was present in all treated groups of both sexes. In one of these studies, female rats were treated with 13.8 mg omeprazole/kg/day (about 3.36 times the human dose of 40 mg/day on a body surface area basis) for 1 year, then followed for an additional year without the drug. No carcinoids were seen in these rats. An increased incidence of treatment-related ECL cell hyperplasia was observed at the end of 1 year (94% treated vs 10% controls). By the second year the difference between treated and control rats was much smaller (46% vs 26%) but still showed more hyperplasia in the treated group. Gastric adenocarcinoma was seen in one rat (2%). No similar tumor was seen in male or female rats treated for 2 years. For this strain of rat no similar tumor has been noted historically, but a finding involving only one tumor is difficult to interpret. A 78-week mouse carcinogenicity study of omeprazole did not show increased tumor occurrence, but the study was not conclusive. Mutagenesis Esomeprazole was negative in the Ames mutation test, in the in vivo rat bone marrow cell chromosome aberration test, and the in vivo mouse micronucleus test. Esomeprazole, however, was positive in the in vitro human lymphocyte chromosome aberration test. Omeprazole was positive in the in vitro human lymphocyte chromosome aberration test, the in vivo mouse bone marrow cell chromosome aberration test, and the in vivo mouse micronucleus test. Impairment of Fertility The potential effects of esomeprazole on fertility and reproductive performance were assessed using omeprazole studies. Omeprazole at oral doses up to 138 mg/kg/day in rats (about 33.6 times the human dose of 40 mg/day on a body surface area basis) was found to have no effect on reproductive performance of parental animals. Studies to evaluate the impact of naproxen on male or female fertility have not been completed.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, and Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Naproxen A 2-year study was performed in rats to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of naproxen at rat doses of 8, 16, and 24 mg/kg/day (0.05, 0.1, and 0.16 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day based on a body surface area comparison).

Omeprazole at oral doses up to 138 mg/kg/day in rats (about 33.6 times the human dose of 40 mg/day on a body surface area basis) was found to have no effect on reproductive performance of parental animals. Studies to evaluate the impact of naproxen on male or female fertility have not been completed. 13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology Naproxen Reproduction studies have been performed in rats at 20 mg/kg/day (125 mg/m 2 /day, 0.23 times the maximum recommended human dose), rabbits at 20 mg/kg/day (220 mg/m 2 /day, 0.27 times the maximum recommended human dose), and mice at 170 mg/kg/day (510 mg/m 2 /day, 0.28 times the maximum recommended human dose) with no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to the drug.

14 CLINICAL STUDIES Two randomized, multi-center, double-blind trials (Study 1 and Study 2) compared the incidence of gastric ulcer formation in 428 patients taking naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and 426 patients taking enteric-coated naproxen. Subjects were at least 18 years of age with a medical condition expected to require daily NSAID therapy for at least 6 months, and, if less than 50 years old, with a documented history of gastric or duodenal ulcer within the past 5 years. The majority of patients were female (67%), white (86%). The majority of patients were 50 to 69 years of age (83%). Studies 1 and 2 showed that naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets given as 500 mg/20 mg twice daily statistically significantly reduced the 6 month cumulative incidence of gastric ulcers compared to enteric-coated naproxen 500 mg twice daily (see Table 6). The results at one month, three months, and six months are presented in Table 6. Table 6 – Cumulative Observed Incidence of Gastric Ulcers at 1, 3 and 6 Months Study 1 Study 2 Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets N=218 number (%) EC- naproxen N=216 number (%) Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets N=210 number (%) EC- naproxen N=210 number (%) 0 to 1 Month 3 (1.4) 28 (13.0) 4 (1.9) 21 (10.0) 0 to 3 Months 4 (1.8) 42 (19.4) 10 (4.8) 37 (17.6) 0 to 6 Months † 9 (4.1) 50 (23.1) 15 (7.1) 51 (24.3) † For both Studies, p < 0.001 for treatment comparisons of cumulative GU incidence at six months. In these trials, patients receiving naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets had a mean duration of therapy of 152 days compared to 124 days in patients receiving enteric-coated naproxen alone. A higher proportion of patients taking EC-naproxen (12%) discontinued the study due to upper GI adverse events (including duodenal ulcers) compared to naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets (4%) in both trials [see Adverse Reactions ( 6 )]. The efficacy of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in treating the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis was established in two 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. In these two trials, patients were allowed to remain on low-dose aspirin for cardioprophylaxis. Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets were given as 500 mg/20 mg twice daily. In each trial, patients receiving naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets had significantly better results compared to patients receiving placebo as measured by change from baseline of the WOMAC pain subscale and the WOMAC physical function subscale and a Patient Global Assessment Score. Based on studies with enteric-coated naproxen, improvement in patients treated for rheumatoid arthritis was demonstrated by a reduction in joint swelling, a reduction in duration of morning stiffness, a reduction in disease activity as assessed by both the investigator and patient, and by increased mobility as demonstrated by a reduction in walking time. In patients with osteoarthritis, the therapeutic action of naproxen has been shown by a reduction in joint pain or tenderness, an increase in range of motion in knee joints, increased mobility as demonstrated by a reduction in walking time, and improvement in capacity to perform activities of daily living impaired by the disease. In patients with ankylosing spondylitis, naproxen has been shown to decrease night pain, morning stiffness and pain at rest.

8.5 Geriatric Use Elderly patients, compared to younger patients, are at greater risk for NSAID-associated serious cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and/or renal adverse reactions. If the anticipated benefit for the elderly patient outweighs these potential risks, start dosing at the low end of the dosing range, and monitor patients for adverse effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.2 , 5.3 , 5.6 , 5.14 )]. Of the total number of patients who received naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets (n=1,157) in clinical trials, 387 were ≥65 years of age, of which 85 patients were 75 years and over. No meaningful differences in efficacy or safety were observed between these subjects and younger subjects [see Adverse Reactions ( 6 )]. Studies indicate that although total plasma concentration of naproxen is unchanged, the unbound plasma fraction of naproxen is increased in the elderly. Caution is advised when high doses are required and some adjustment of dosage may be required in elderly patients. As with other drugs used in the elderly, it is prudent to use the lowest effective dose [see Dosage and Administration (2) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Experience indicates that geriatric patients may be particularly sensitive to certain adverse effects of NSAIDs. Elderly or debilitated patients seem to tolerate peptic ulceration or bleeding less well when these events do occur. Most spontaneous reports of fatal GI events are in the geriatric population [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Naproxen and its metabolites are known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function. Geriatric patients may be at a greater risk for the development of a form of renal toxicity precipitated by reduced prostaglandin formation during administration of NSAIDs [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )].

8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets have been established in adolescent patients 12 years of age and older weighing at least 38 kg for the symptomatic relief of JIA and to decrease the risk of developing naproxen-associated gastric ulcers. Use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in this age group is based on extrapolation of adequate and well-controlled studies in adults and supported by a 6 month safety study including pharmacokinetic assessment of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium in 36 adolescent patients with JIA. Based on the limited data, the plasma naproxen and plasma esomeprazole concentrations were found to be within the range to that observed to those found in healthy adults. The safety profile of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in adolescent patients with JIA was similar to adults with RA. The safety and effectiveness of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in pediatric patients less than 12 years of age or less than 38 kg with JIA have not been established. Juvenile Animal Data In a juvenile rat toxicity study, esomeprazole was administered with both magnesium and strontium salts at oral doses about 34 to 68 times a daily human dose of 40 mg based on body surface area. Increases in death were seen at the high dose, and at all doses of esomeprazole, there were decreases in body weight, body weight gain, femur weight and femur length, and decreases in overall growth [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.2 )] .

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Use of NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus and fetal and renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. Because of these risks, limit dose and duration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets use between about 20 and 30 weeks of gestation and avoid naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets use at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations, Data). Premature Closure of the Fetal Ductus Arteriosus Use of NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, at about 30 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy increases the risk of premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment Use of NSAIDs at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy has been associated with cases of fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets contains naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. Esomeprazole is the S- isomer of omeprazole. Naproxen Data from observational studies regarding potential embryofetal risks of NSAID use in women in the first or second trimesters of pregnancy are inconclusive. In animal reproduction studies, naproxen administered during organogenesis to rats and rabbits at doses less than the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day showed no evidence of harm to the fetus [see Data] . Based on animal data, prostaglandins have been shown to have an important role in endometrial vascular permeability, blastocyst implantation, and decidualization. In animal studies, administration of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors such as naproxen resulted in increased pre- and post-implantation loss. Prostaglandins also have been shown to have an important role in fetal kidney development. In published animal studies, prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors have been reported to impair kidney development when administered at clinically relevant doses. Esomeprazole There are no human data for esomeprazole. However, available epidemiologic data for omeprazole (esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole) fail to demonstrate an increased risk of major congenital malformations or other adverse pregnancy outcomes with first trimester omeprazole use [see Data] . In animal studies with administration of oral esomeprazole magnesium in rats changes in bone morphology were observed in offspring of rats dosed through most of pregnancy and lactation at doses equal to or greater than approximately 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole. When maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age [see Data]. The estimated background risks of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are 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. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Premature Closure of Fetal Ductus Arteriosus: Avoid use of NSAIDs in women at about 30 weeks gestation and later in pregnancy, because NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus (see Data). Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment If an NSAID is necessary at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy, limit the use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible. If naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets treatment is needed in pregnant women, consider monitoring with ultrasound for oligohydramnios. If oligohydramnios occurs, discontinue naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and follow up according to clinical practice (see Data ). Labor or Delivery There are no studies on the effects of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets during labor or delivery. In animal studies, NSAIDs, including naproxen, inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, cause delayed parturition, and increase the incidence of stillbirth. Data Human Data Naproxen When used to delay preterm labor, inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis, including NSAIDs such naproxen, may increase the risk of neonatal complications such as necrotizing enterocolitis, patent ductus arteriosus and intracranial hemorrhage. Naproxen treatment given in late pregnancy to delay parturition has been associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension, renal dysfunction and abnormal prostaglandin E levels in preterm infants. Premature Closure of Fetal Ductus Arteriosus: Published literature reports that the use of NSAIDs at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy may cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment: Published studies and postmarketing reports describe maternal NSAID use at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy associated with fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. These adverse outcomes are seen, on average, after days to weeks of treatment, although oligohydramnios has been infrequently reported as soon as 48 hours after NSAID initiation. In many cases, but not all, the decrease in amniotic fluid was transient and reversible with cessation of the drug. There have been a limited number of case reports of maternal NSAID use and neonatal renal dysfunction without oligohydramnios, some of which were irreversible. Some cases of neonatal renal dysfunction required treatment with invasive procedures, such as exchange transfusion or dialysis. Methodological limitations of these postmarketing studies and reports include lack of a control group; limited information regarding dose, duration, and timing of drug exposure; and concomitant use of other medications. These limitations preclude establishing a reliable estimate of the risk of adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes with maternal NSAID use. Because the published safety data on neonatal outcomes involved mostly preterm infants, the generalizability of certain reported risks to the full-term infant exposed to NSAIDs through maternal use is uncertain. Esomeprazole Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole. Four epidemiological studies compared the frequency of congenital abnormalities among infants born to women who used omeprazole during pregnancy with the frequency of abnormalities among infants of women exposed to H 2 -receptor antagonists or other controls. A population-based retrospective cohort epidemiological study from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry, covering approximately 99% of pregnancies, from 1995 to 99, reported on 955 infants (824 exposed during the first trimester with 39 of these exposed beyond first trimester, and 131 exposed after the first trimester) whose mothers used omeprazole during pregnancy. The number of infants exposed in utero to omeprazole that had any malformation, low birth weight, low Apgar score, or hospitalization was similar to the number observed in this population. The number of infants born with ventricular septal defects and the number of stillborn infants was slightly higher in the omeprazole- exposed infants than the expected number in this population. A population-based retrospective cohort study covering all live births in Denmark from 1996 to 2009, reported on 1,800 live births whose mothers used omeprazole during the first trimester of pregnancy and 837, 317 live births whose mothers did not use any proton pump inhibitor. The overall rate of birth defects in infants born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole was 2.9% and 2.6% in infants born to mothers not exposed to any proton pump inhibitor during the first trimester. A retrospective cohort study reported on 689 pregnant women exposed to either H 2 -blockers or omeprazole in the first trimester (134 exposed to omeprazole) and 1,572 pregnant women unexposed to either during the first trimester. The overall malformation rate in offspring born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole, an H 2 - blocker, or were unexposed was 3.6%, 5.5%, and 4.1% respectively. A small prospective observational cohort study followed 113 women exposed to omeprazole during pregnancy (89% first trimester exposures). The reported rate of major congenital malformations was 4% in the omeprazole group, 2% in controls exposed to non-teratogens, and 2.8% in disease-paired controls. Rates of spontaneous and elective abortions, preterm deliveries, gestational age at delivery, and mean birth weight were similar among the groups. Several studies have reported no apparent adverse short-term effects on the infant when single dose oral or intravenous omeprazole was administered to over 200 pregnant women as premedication for cesarean section under general anesthesia. Animal Data There are no reproduction studies in animals with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, a combination of naproxen and esomeprazole. Naproxen Reproduction studies with naproxen administered during the period of organogenesis have been performed in rats at 20 mg/kg/day (0.13 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day based on body surface area comparison) rabbits at 20 mg/kg/day (0.26 times the maximum recommended human daily dose, based on body surface area comparison), and mice at 170 mg/kg/day (0.56 times the maximum recommended human daily dose based on body surface area comparison) with no evidence of harm to the fetus due to the drug. Esomeprazole No effects on embryo-fetal development were observed in reproduction studies with esomeprazole magnesium in rats at oral doses up to 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) or in rabbits at oral doses up to 86 mg/kg/day (about 42 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis) administered during organogenesis and have revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus due to esomeprazole magnesium. A pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity study in rats with additional endpoints to evaluate bone development were performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times a daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Neonatal/early postnatal (birth to weaning) survival was decreased at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Body weight and body weight gain were reduced and neurobehavioral or general developmental delays in the immediate post-weaning timeframe were evident at doses equal to or greater than 69 mg /kg/day (about 17 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). In addition, decreased femur length, width and thickness of cortical bone, decreased thickness of the tibial growth plate and minimal to mild bone marrow hypocellularity were noted at doses equal to or greater than 14 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 times a daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Physeal dysplasia in the femur was observed in offspring of rats treated with oral doses of esomeprazole magnesium at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times the daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Effects on maternal bone were observed in pregnant and lactating rats in the pre- and postnatal toxicity study when esomeprazole magnesium was administered at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg /kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). When rats were dosed from gestational day 7 through weaning on postnatal day 21, a statistically significant decrease in maternal femur weight of up to 14% (as compared to placebo treatment) was observed at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). A pre- and postnatal development study in rats with esomeprazole strontium (using equimolar doses compared to esomeprazole magnesium study) produced similar results in dams and pups as described above. A follow up developmental toxicity study in rats with further time points to evaluate pup bone development from postnatal day 2 to adulthood was performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) where esomeprazole administration was from either gestational day 7 or gestational day 16 until parturition. When maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS • Females and Males of Reproductive Potential : NSAIDs are associated with reversible infertility. Consider withdrawal of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in women who have difficulties conceiving. ( 8.3 ) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Use of NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus and fetal and renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios and, in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. Because of these risks, limit dose and duration of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets use between about 20 and 30 weeks of gestation and avoid naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets use at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations, Data). Premature Closure of the Fetal Ductus Arteriosus Use of NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, at about 30 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy increases the risk of premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment Use of NSAIDs at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy has been associated with cases of fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets contains naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium. Esomeprazole is the S- isomer of omeprazole. Naproxen Data from observational studies regarding potential embryofetal risks of NSAID use in women in the first or second trimesters of pregnancy are inconclusive. In animal reproduction studies, naproxen administered during organogenesis to rats and rabbits at doses less than the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day showed no evidence of harm to the fetus [see Data] . Based on animal data, prostaglandins have been shown to have an important role in endometrial vascular permeability, blastocyst implantation, and decidualization. In animal studies, administration of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors such as naproxen resulted in increased pre- and post-implantation loss. Prostaglandins also have been shown to have an important role in fetal kidney development. In published animal studies, prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors have been reported to impair kidney development when administered at clinically relevant doses. Esomeprazole There are no human data for esomeprazole. However, available epidemiologic data for omeprazole (esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole) fail to demonstrate an increased risk of major congenital malformations or other adverse pregnancy outcomes with first trimester omeprazole use [see Data] . In animal studies with administration of oral esomeprazole magnesium in rats changes in bone morphology were observed in offspring of rats dosed through most of pregnancy and lactation at doses equal to or greater than approximately 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole. When maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age [see Data]. The estimated background risks of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are 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. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Premature Closure of Fetal Ductus Arteriosus: Avoid use of NSAIDs in women at about 30 weeks gestation and later in pregnancy, because NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, can cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus (see Data). Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment If an NSAID is necessary at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy, limit the use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible. If naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets treatment is needed in pregnant women, consider monitoring with ultrasound for oligohydramnios. If oligohydramnios occurs, discontinue naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and follow up according to clinical practice (see Data ). Labor or Delivery There are no studies on the effects of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets during labor or delivery. In animal studies, NSAIDs, including naproxen, inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, cause delayed parturition, and increase the incidence of stillbirth. Data Human Data Naproxen When used to delay preterm labor, inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis, including NSAIDs such naproxen, may increase the risk of neonatal complications such as necrotizing enterocolitis, patent ductus arteriosus and intracranial hemorrhage. Naproxen treatment given in late pregnancy to delay parturition has been associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension, renal dysfunction and abnormal prostaglandin E levels in preterm infants. Premature Closure of Fetal Ductus Arteriosus: Published literature reports that the use of NSAIDs at about 30 weeks of gestation and later in pregnancy may cause premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus. Oligohydramnios/Neonatal Renal Impairment: Published studies and postmarketing reports describe maternal NSAID use at about 20 weeks gestation or later in pregnancy associated with fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios, and in some cases, neonatal renal impairment. These adverse outcomes are seen, on average, after days to weeks of treatment, although oligohydramnios has been infrequently reported as soon as 48 hours after NSAID initiation. In many cases, but not all, the decrease in amniotic fluid was transient and reversible with cessation of the drug. There have been a limited number of case reports of maternal NSAID use and neonatal renal dysfunction without oligohydramnios, some of which were irreversible. Some cases of neonatal renal dysfunction required treatment with invasive procedures, such as exchange transfusion or dialysis. Methodological limitations of these postmarketing studies and reports include lack of a control group; limited information regarding dose, duration, and timing of drug exposure; and concomitant use of other medications. These limitations preclude establishing a reliable estimate of the risk of adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes with maternal NSAID use. Because the published safety data on neonatal outcomes involved mostly preterm infants, the generalizability of certain reported risks to the full-term infant exposed to NSAIDs through maternal use is uncertain. Esomeprazole Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole. Four epidemiological studies compared the frequency of congenital abnormalities among infants born to women who used omeprazole during pregnancy with the frequency of abnormalities among infants of women exposed to H 2 -receptor antagonists or other controls. A population-based retrospective cohort epidemiological study from the Swedish Medical Birth Registry, covering approximately 99% of pregnancies, from 1995 to 99, reported on 955 infants (824 exposed during the first trimester with 39 of these exposed beyond first trimester, and 131 exposed after the first trimester) whose mothers used omeprazole during pregnancy. The number of infants exposed in utero to omeprazole that had any malformation, low birth weight, low Apgar score, or hospitalization was similar to the number observed in this population. The number of infants born with ventricular septal defects and the number of stillborn infants was slightly higher in the omeprazole- exposed infants than the expected number in this population. A population-based retrospective cohort study covering all live births in Denmark from 1996 to 2009, reported on 1,800 live births whose mothers used omeprazole during the first trimester of pregnancy and 837, 317 live births whose mothers did not use any proton pump inhibitor. The overall rate of birth defects in infants born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole was 2.9% and 2.6% in infants born to mothers not exposed to any proton pump inhibitor during the first trimester. A retrospective cohort study reported on 689 pregnant women exposed to either H 2 -blockers or omeprazole in the first trimester (134 exposed to omeprazole) and 1,572 pregnant women unexposed to either during the first trimester. The overall malformation rate in offspring born to mothers with first trimester exposure to omeprazole, an H 2 - blocker, or were unexposed was 3.6%, 5.5%, and 4.1% respectively. A small prospective observational cohort study followed 113 women exposed to omeprazole during pregnancy (89% first trimester exposures). The reported rate of major congenital malformations was 4% in the omeprazole group, 2% in controls exposed to non-teratogens, and 2.8% in disease-paired controls. Rates of spontaneous and elective abortions, preterm deliveries, gestational age at delivery, and mean birth weight were similar among the groups. Several studies have reported no apparent adverse short-term effects on the infant when single dose oral or intravenous omeprazole was administered to over 200 pregnant women as premedication for cesarean section under general anesthesia. Animal Data There are no reproduction studies in animals with naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, a combination of naproxen and esomeprazole. Naproxen Reproduction studies with naproxen administered during the period of organogenesis have been performed in rats at 20 mg/kg/day (0.13 times the maximum recommended human daily dose of 1,500 mg/day based on body surface area comparison) rabbits at 20 mg/kg/day (0.26 times the maximum recommended human daily dose, based on body surface area comparison), and mice at 170 mg/kg/day (0.56 times the maximum recommended human daily dose based on body surface area comparison) with no evidence of harm to the fetus due to the drug. Esomeprazole No effects on embryo-fetal development were observed in reproduction studies with esomeprazole magnesium in rats at oral doses up to 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) or in rabbits at oral doses up to 86 mg/kg/day (about 42 times an oral human dose of 40 mg esomeprazole or 40 mg omeprazole on a body surface area basis) administered during organogenesis and have revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus due to esomeprazole magnesium. A pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity study in rats with additional endpoints to evaluate bone development were performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times a daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Neonatal/early postnatal (birth to weaning) survival was decreased at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Body weight and body weight gain were reduced and neurobehavioral or general developmental delays in the immediate post-weaning timeframe were evident at doses equal to or greater than 69 mg /kg/day (about 17 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). In addition, decreased femur length, width and thickness of cortical bone, decreased thickness of the tibial growth plate and minimal to mild bone marrow hypocellularity were noted at doses equal to or greater than 14 mg/kg/day (about 3.4 times a daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Physeal dysplasia in the femur was observed in offspring of rats treated with oral doses of esomeprazole magnesium at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times the daily human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). Effects on maternal bone were observed in pregnant and lactating rats in the pre- and postnatal toxicity study when esomeprazole magnesium was administered at oral doses of 14 to 280 mg /kg/day (about 3.4 to 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). When rats were dosed from gestational day 7 through weaning on postnatal day 21, a statistically significant decrease in maternal femur weight of up to 14% (as compared to placebo treatment) was observed at doses equal to or greater than 138 mg/kg/day (about 34 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis). A pre- and postnatal development study in rats with esomeprazole strontium (using equimolar doses compared to esomeprazole magnesium study) produced similar results in dams and pups as described above. A follow up developmental toxicity study in rats with further time points to evaluate pup bone development from postnatal day 2 to adulthood was performed with esomeprazole magnesium at oral doses of 280 mg/kg/day (about 68 times an oral human dose of 40 mg on a body surface area basis) where esomeprazole administration was from either gestational day 7 or gestational day 16 until parturition. When maternal administration was confined to gestation only, there were no effects on bone physeal morphology in the offspring at any age. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary Limited data from published literature report that naproxen anion has been found in the milk of lactating women at a concentration equivalent to approximately 1% of maximum naproxen concentration in plasma. Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole and limited data from published literature suggest omeprazole may be present in human milk. There is no information on the effects of naproxen or omeprazole on the breastfed infant or on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Infertility Females Based on the mechanism of action, the use of prostaglandin-mediated NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, may delay or prevent rupture of ovarian follicles that may lead to reversible infertility in some women. Small studies in women treated with NSAIDs have also shown a reversible delay in ovulation. Published animal studies have shown that administration of prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors have the potential to disrupt prostaglandin-mediated follicular rupture required for ovulation. Consider withdrawal of NSAIDs, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, in women who have difficulties conceiving or who are undergoing investigation of infertility. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets have been established in adolescent patients 12 years of age and older weighing at least 38 kg for the symptomatic relief of JIA and to decrease the risk of developing naproxen-associated gastric ulcers. Use of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in this age group is based on extrapolation of adequate and well-controlled studies in adults and supported by a 6 month safety study including pharmacokinetic assessment of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium in 36 adolescent patients with JIA. Based on the limited data, the plasma naproxen and plasma esomeprazole concentrations were found to be within the range to that observed to those found in healthy adults. The safety profile of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in adolescent patients with JIA was similar to adults with RA. The safety and effectiveness of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets in pediatric patients less than 12 years of age or less than 38 kg with JIA have not been established. Juvenile Animal Data In a juvenile rat toxicity study, esomeprazole was administered with both magnesium and strontium salts at oral doses about 34 to 68 times a daily human dose of 40 mg based on body surface area. Increases in death were seen at the high dose, and at all doses of esomeprazole, there were decreases in body weight, body weight gain, femur weight and femur length, and decreases in overall growth [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.2 )] . 8.5 Geriatric Use Elderly patients, compared to younger patients, are at greater risk for NSAID-associated serious cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and/or renal adverse reactions. If the anticipated benefit for the elderly patient outweighs these potential risks, start dosing at the low end of the dosing range, and monitor patients for adverse effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.2 , 5.3 , 5.6 , 5.14 )]. Of the total number of patients who received naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets (n=1,157) in clinical trials, 387 were ≥65 years of age, of which 85 patients were 75 years and over. No meaningful differences in efficacy or safety were observed between these subjects and younger subjects [see Adverse Reactions ( 6 )]. Studies indicate that although total plasma concentration of naproxen is unchanged, the unbound plasma fraction of naproxen is increased in the elderly. Caution is advised when high doses are required and some adjustment of dosage may be required in elderly patients. As with other drugs used in the elderly, it is prudent to use the lowest effective dose [see Dosage and Administration (2) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Experience indicates that geriatric patients may be particularly sensitive to certain adverse effects of NSAIDs. Elderly or debilitated patients seem to tolerate peptic ulceration or bleeding less well when these events do occur. Most spontaneous reports of fatal GI events are in the geriatric population [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Naproxen and its metabolites are known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function. Geriatric patients may be at a greater risk for the development of a form of renal toxicity precipitated by reduced prostaglandin formation during administration of NSAIDs [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )]. 8.6 Hepatic Impairment Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets should be avoided in patients with severe hepatic impairment because naproxen may increase the risk of renal failure or bleeding and esomeprazole doses should not exceed 20 mg daily in these patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2 ), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. 8.7 Renal Impairment Naproxen-containing products, including naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, are not recommended for use in patients with advanced renal disease [see Dosage and Administration ( 2 ), Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )].

WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS CARDIOVASCULAR AND GASTROINTESTINAL EVENTS Cardiovascular Thrombotic Events Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), a component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets, cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets are contraindicated in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery [see Contraindications (4) , and Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] . Gastrointestinal Bleeding, Ulceration, and Perforation NSAIDs, a component of naproxen and esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release tablets cause an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events including bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach or intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Elderly patients and patients with a prior history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding are at greater risk for serious GI events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ].
