Description
11 DESCRIPTION Noxivent™ (nitric oxide gas) is a drug administered by inhalation. Nitric oxide, the active substance in Noxivent™, is a pulmonary vasodilator. Noxivent™ is a gaseous blend of nitric oxide and nitrogen (0.08% and 99.92%, respectively for 800 ppm; 0.01% and 99.99%, respectively for 100 ppm). Noxivent™ is supplied in aluminum cylinders as a compressed gas under high pressure (2000 pounds per square inch gauge [psig]). The structural formula of nitric oxide (NO) is shown below: formula
Dosage And Administration
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION The recommended dose is 20 ppm, maintained for up to 14 days or until the underlying oxygen desaturation has resolved ( 2.1 ). Doses greater than 20 ppm are not recommended ( 2.1 , 5.2 ) Administration: • Use only with a NOxBOXi® operated by trained personnel ( 2.2 ) • Avoid abrupt discontinuation ( 2.2 , 5.1 ).
Indications And Usage
INDICATIONS AND USAGE Noxivent™ is a vasodilator indicated to improve oxygenation and reduce the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in term and near-term (>34 weeks gestation) neonates with hypoxic respiratory failure associated with clinical or echocardiographic evidence of pulmonary hypertension in conjunction with ventilatory support and other appropriate agents.
Overdosage
10 OVERDOSAGE Overdosage with Noxivent™ is manifest by elevations in methemoglobin and pulmonary toxicities associated with inspired NO 2 . Elevated NO 2 may cause acute lung injury. Elevations in methemoglobin reduce the oxygen delivery capacity of the circulation. In clinical studies, NO 2 levels >3 ppm or methemoglobin levels >7% were treated by reducing the dose of, or discontinuing, nitric oxide. Methemoglobinemia that does not resolve after reduction or discontinuation of therapy can be treated with intravenous vitamin C, intravenous methylene blue, or blood transfusion, based upon the clinical situation.
Drug Interactions
DRUG INTERACTIONS Nitric oxide donor compounds may increase the risk of developing methemoglobinemia ( 7 ).

Nonclinical Toxicology
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility No evidence of a carcinogenic effect was apparent, at inhalation exposures up to the recommended dose (20 ppm), in rats for 20 hr/day for up to two years. Higher exposures have not been investigated. Nitric oxide has demonstrated genotoxicity in Salmonella (Ames Test), human lymphocytes, and after in vivo exposure in rats. There are no animal or human studies to evaluate nitric oxide for effects on fertility.
