Important Limitations of Use: QVAR REDIHALER is NOT indicated for the relief of acute bronchospasm. DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION.1 Administration Information Administer QVAR REDIHALER by the orally inhaled route in patients 4 years of age and older. After inhalation, the patient should rinse his/her mouth with water without swallowing to help reduce the risk of oropharyngeal candidiasis. Patients should be instructed on the proper use of their inhaler. Consistent dose delivery is achieved, whether using the 40- or 80-mcg strengths, due to proportionality of the products (i.e., actuations of 40-mcg strength should provide a dose comparable to 1 actuation of the 80-mcg strength). Priming: QVAR REDIHALER does not require priming. Shaking the inhaler prior to use is not necessary. Do not shake the inhaler with the cap open to avoid possible actuation of the device. Do not use QVAR REDIHALER with a spacer or volume holding chamber. 1 Transferring patients from systemic corticosteroids: Risk of impaired adrenal function when transferring from oral steroids. Taper patients slowly from systemic corticosteroids if transferring to QVAR (5.3) Immunosuppression: Potential worsening of existing tuberculosis, fungal, bacterial, viral, or parasitic infection; or ocular herpes simplex infections. More serious or even fatal course of chickenpox or measles can occur in susceptible patients. Use with caution in patients with these infections because of the potential for worsening of these infections. (5.4) Paradoxical bronchospasm: Bronchospasm, with an immediate increase in wheezing, may occur after dosing. Treat bronchospasm immediately with inhaled, short-acting bronchodilator and discontinue QVAR (5.5) Hypersensitivity reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, such as urticaria, angioedema, rash, and bronchospasm may occur. Discontinue QVAR REDIHALER if such reactions occur. (5.6) Hypercorticism and adrenal suppression: May occur with very high dosages or at the regular dosage in susceptible individuals. If such changes occur, discontinue QVAR REDIHALER slowly. (5.7) Effects on growth: Monitor growth of pediatric patients. (5.8) Decreases in bone mineral density: Monitor patients with major risk factors for decreased bone mineral content. (5.9) Eye Disorders: Monitor patients with change in vision or with a history of increased intraocular pressure, blurred vision, glaucoma, and/or cataracts closely.

Storage and Handling 17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION *Sections or subsections omitted from the full prescribing information are not listed. Cleaning: Keep the inhaler clean and dry at all times. Never wash or put any part of the inhaler in water. Routine maintenance is not required. If the mouthpiece needs cleaning, gently wipe the mouthpiece with a dry cloth or tissue as needed. Dose Counter: QVAR REDIHALER has a dose counter attached to the actuator. When the patient receives the inhaler, the number 10 will be displayed. The dose counter will count down each time a spray is released. When the dose counter reaches 0, the color of the numbers will change to red to remind the patient to contact their pharmacist for a refill of medication or consult their physician for a prescription refill. When the dose counter reaches 0, the background will change to solid red. Discard QVAR REDIHALER inhaler when the dose counter displays 0 or after the expiration date on the product, whichever comes first [see Patient Counseling Information (17)].. Recommended Dosage Adults and Adolescents 1 years of age and older The starting dosage is based on previous asthma therapy and disease severity, including consideration of the patients current control of asthma symptoms and risk of future exacerbation. The recommended starting dosage for patients 1 years of age and older who are not on an inhaled corticosteroid is 40 to 80 mcg twice daily, approximately 1 hours apart. For patients switching to QVAR REDIHALER from another inhaled corticosteroid product, select the appropriate starting dosage strength of QVAR REDIHALER based on the strength of the previous inhaled

corticosteroid product and disease severity: 40, 80, 160 or 30 mcg twice daily. For patients who do not respond adequately to the initial dosage after weeks of therapy, increasing the dosage may provide additional asthma control. The maximum recommended dosage for patients 1 years of age and older is 30 mcg twice daily. Pediatric Patients 4 to 11 years The starting dosage is based on previous asthma therapy and disease severity, including consideration of the patients current control of asthma symptoms and risk of future exacerbation. The recommended starting dosage for patients aged 4 to 11 years of age is 40 mcg twice daily, approximately 1 hours apart. For patients who do not respond adequately to QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg after weeks of therapy, increasing the dosage to QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg twice daily may provide additional asthma control. The maximum recommended dosage for patients 4 to 11 years of age is 80 mcg twice daily. General Dosing Recommendations The onset and degree of symptom relief will vary in individual patients. Improvement in asthma symptoms can occur within 4 hours of the beginning of treatment and should be expected within the first or second week, but maximum benefit should not be expected until 3 to 4 weeks of therapy. Improvement in pulmonary function is usually apparent within 1 to 4 weeks after the start of therapy. If a dosage regimen of QVAR REDIHALER fails to provide adequate control of asthma, the therapeutic regimen should be re-evaluated and additional therapeutic options (e.g., replacing the current strength of QVAR REDIHALER with a higher strength, or adding additional controller therapies) should be considered. As with any inhaled corticosteroid, physicians are advised to titrate the dose of QVAR REDIHALER downward over time to the lowest level that maintains proper asthma control. This is particularly important in children since a controlled study has shown that beclomethasone dipropionate has the potential to affect growth in children. The maximum number of inhalations should not exceed 8 per day. 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS Inhalation Aerosol. QVAR REDIHALER is a pressurized, breath-actuated, metered-dose aerosol with a dose counter intended for oral inhalation containing beclomethasone dipropionate in the following strengths: QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg is supplied in an aluminum canister contained within a beige plastic actuator with a dose counter and a hinged white cap. Each breathinduced actuation delivers 50 mcg from the valve and 40 mcg from the actuator. QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg is available as a 10-inhalation/10.6-g canister. QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg is supplied in an aluminum canister contained within a maroon plastic actuator with a dose counter and a hinged white cap. Each breath-induced actuation delivers 100 mcg of beclomethasone dipropionate from the valve and 80 mcg from the actuator. QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg is available as a 10-inhalation/10.6-g canister. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS 4.1 Status Asthmaticus QVAR REDIHALER is contraindicated in the primary treatment of status asthmaticus or other acute episodes of asthma where intensive measures are required [see Warnings and Precautions (5.)]. 4. Hypersensitivity QVAR REDIHALER is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to beclomethasone dipropionate or any of the ingredients in QVAR REDIHALER [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)]. 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS 5.1 Local Effects Localized infections with Candida albicans have occurred in the mouth and pharynx in some patients receiving QVAR If oropharyngeal candidiasis develops, it should be treated with appropriate local or systemic (i.e., oral) antifungal therapy while still continuing with QVAR REDIHALER therapy, but at times therapy with QVAR REDIHALER may need to be temporarily interrupted under close medical supervision. After inhalation, the patient should rinse his/her mouth with water without swallowing to help reduce the risk of oropharyngeal candidiasis. 5. Deterioration of Asthma and Acute Episodes QVAR REDIHALER is not indicated for the relief of acute symptoms, i.e., as rescue therapy for the treatment of acute episodes of bronchospasm. An inhaled, shortacting beta -agonist, not QVAR REDIHALER, should be used to relieve acute symptoms such as shortness of breath. Instruct patients to contact their physician immediately if episodes of asthma that are not responsive to bronchodilators occur during the course of treatment with QVAR During such episodes, patients may require therapy with oral corticosteroids. 5.3 Transferring Patients from Systemic Corticosteroid Therapy Particular care is needed in patients who are transferred from systemically active corticosteroids to QVAR REDIHALER because deaths due to adrenal insufficiency have occurred in asthmatic patients during and after transfer from systemic corticosteroids to less systemically available inhaled corticosteroids. After withdrawal from systemic corticosteroids, a number of months are required for recovery of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) function. Patients who have been previously maintained on 0 mg or more per day of prednisone (or its equivalent) may be most susceptible, particularly when their systemic corticosteroids have been almost completely withdrawn. During this period of HPA suppression, patients may exhibit signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency when exposed to trauma, surgery, or infections (particularly gastroenteritis) or other conditions with severe electrolyte loss. Although QVAR REDIHALER may provide control of asthmatic symptoms during these episodes, in recommended doses it supplies less than normal physiological amounts of glucocorticoid systemically and does NOT provide the mineralocorticoid that is necessary for coping with these emergencies. During periods of stress or a severe asthmatic attack, patients who have been withdrawn from systemic corticosteroids should be instructed to resume oral corticosteroids (in large doses) immediately and to contact their physician for further instruction. These patients should also be instructed to carry a warning card indicating that they may need supplementary systemic steroids during periods of stress or a severe asthma attack. Patients requiring oral or other systemic corticosteroids should be weaned slowly from oral or other systemic corticosteroid use after transferring to QVAR Lung function (FEV 1 or PEF), beta-agonist use, and asthma symptoms should be carefully monitored during withdrawal of oral or other systemic corticosteroids. In addition to monitoring asthma signs and symptoms, patients should be observed for signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency such as fatigue, lassitude, weakness, nausea and vomiting, and hypotension. Transfer of patients from systemic corticosteroid therapy to QVAR REDIHALER may unmask allergic conditions previously suppressed by the systemic corticosteroid therapy, e.g., rhinitis, conjunctivitis, eczema, arthritis, and eosinophilic conditions. During withdrawal from oral corticosteroids, some patients may experience symptoms of systemically active corticosteroid withdrawal, e.g., joint and/or muscular pain, lassitude, and depression, despite maintenance or even improvement of respiratory function. 5.4 Immunosuppression Persons who are on drugs which suppress the immune system are more susceptible to infections than healthy individuals. Chickenpox and measles, for example, can have a more serious or even fatal course in non-immune patients on corticosteroids. In such patients who have not had these diseases or been properly immunized, particular care should be taken to avoid exposure. It is not known how the dose, route and duration of corticosteroid administration affect the risk of developing a disseminated infection, and nor is the contribution of the underlying disease and/ or prior corticosteroid treatment known. If exposed to chickenpox, prophylaxis with varicella-zoster immune globulin (VZIG) may be indicated. If exposed to measles, prophylaxis with pooled intramuscular immunoglobulin (IG) may be indicated (See the respective package inserts for complete VZIG and IG prescribing information.) If chickenpox develops, treatment with antiviral agents may be considered. Inhaled corticosteroids should be used with caution, if at all, in patients with active or quiescent tuberculosis infection of the respiratory tract; untreated systemic fungal, bacterial, parasitic or viral infections; or ocular herpes simplex. 5.5 Paradoxical Bronchospasm Inhaled corticosteroids may produce inhalation-induced bronchospasm with an immediate increase in wheezing after dosing that may be life-threatening. If inhalation induced bronchospasm occurs following dosing with QVAR REDIHALER, it should be treated immediately with an inhaled, short-acting bronchodilator. Treatment with QVAR REDIHALER should be discontinued and alternate therapy instituted. 5.6 Immediate Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions, such as urticaria, angioedema, rash, and bronchospasm, may occur after administration of QVAR Discontinue QVAR REDIHALER if such reactions occur [see Contraindications (4.)]. 5.7 Hypercorticism and Adrenal Suppression QVAR REDIHALER will often help control asthma symptoms with less suppression of HPA function than therapeutically equivalent oral doses of prednisone. Since beclomethasone dipropionate is absorbed into the circulation and can be systemically active at higher doses, the beneficial effects of QVAR REDIHALER in minimizing HPA dysfunction may be expected only when recommended dosages are not exceeded and individual patients are titrated to the lowest effective dose. Because of the possibility of systemic absorption of inhaled corticosteroids, patients treated with QVAR REDIHALER should be observed carefully for any evidence of systemic corticosteroid effects. Particular care should be taken in observing patients postoperatively or during periods of stress for evidence of inadequate adrenal response. It is possible that systemic corticosteroid effects such as hypercorticism and adrenal suppression (including adrenal crisis) may appear in a small number of patients, particularly when beclomethasone dipropionate is administered at higher than recommended doses over prolonged periods of time. If such effects occur, the dosage of QVAR REDIHALER should be reduced slowly, consistent with accepted procedures for reducing systemic corticosteroids and for management of asthma symptoms. 5.8 Effects on Growth Orally inhaled corticosteroids, including QVAR REDIHALER, may cause a reduction in growth velocity when administered to pediatric patients. Monitor the growth of pediatric patients receiving QVAR REDIHALER routinely (e.g., via stadiometry). To minimize the systemic effects of orally inhaled corticosteroids, including QVAR REDIHALER, titrate each patient s dose to the lowest dosage that effectively controls his/her symptoms [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. 5.9 Reduction in Bone Mineral Density Decreases in bone mineral density (BMD) have been observed with long-term administration of products containing inhaled corticosteroids. The clinical significance of small changes in BMD with regard to long-term outcomes, such as fracture, is unknown. Patients with major risk factors for decreased bone mineral content, such as prolonged immobilization, family history of osteoporosis, or chronic use of drugs that can reduce bone mass (e.g., anticonvulsants and corticosteroids) should be monitored and treated with established standards of care. 5.10 Eye Disorders Glaucoma, increased intraocular pressure, blurred vision and cataracts have been reported following the use of long-term administration of inhaled corticosteroids. Therefore, close monitoring is warranted in patients with a change in vision or with a history of increased intraocular pressure, blurred vision, glaucoma, and/or cataracts while using QVAR

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS Systemic and local corticosteroid use may result in the following: Candida albicans infection [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] Immunosuppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)] Hypercorticism and adrenal suppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7)] Growth effects [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) and Use in Specific Populations (8.4)] Eye Disorders [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10)] 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience A total of 1858 subjects participated in the QVAR REDIHALER clinical development program. Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Adults and Adolescent Patients 1 years of Age and Older: The adverse reaction information presented in Table 1 is derived from 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials in which 130 patients (751 female and 479 male adults previously treated with as-needed bronchodilators and/or inhaled corticosteroids) were treated with QVAR REDIHALER (doses of 40, 80, 160, or 30 mcg twice daily) or QVAR (beclomethasone dipropionate HFA) Inhalation Aerosol (QVAR MDI; doses of 160 or 30 mcg twice daily) or placebo. In considering these data, difference in average duration of exposure and clinical trial design should be taken into account.

Postmarketing Experience In addition to the adverse reactions reported from clinical trials with QVAR REDIHALER, the following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of QVAR MDI and other inhaled corticosteroids. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Local Effects: Localized infections with Candida albicans have occurred in patients treated with beclomethasone dipropionate or other orally inhaled corticosteroids [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Psychiatric and Behavioral Changes: Aggression, depression, sleep disorders, psychomotor hyperactivity, and suicidal ideation have been reported (primarily in children). Eye Disorders: Blurred vision, central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies with QVAR REDIHALER or beclomethasone dipropionate in pregnant women. There are clinical considerations with the use of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), including beclomethasone dipropionate, in pregnant women [see Clinical Considerations]. Also, no published studies, including studies of large birth registries, have to date related the use of ICS to any increases in congenital malformations or other adverse perinatal outcomes. Thus, available human data do not establish the presence or absence of drug-associated risk to the fetus. In animal reproduction studies, beclomethasone dipropionate resulted in adverse developmental effects in mice and rabbits at subcutaneous doses equal to or greater than approximately 0.75 times the maximum recommended human daily inhalation dose (MRHDID) in adults (0.64 mg/day) [see Data]. In rats exposed to beclomethasone dipropionate by inhalation, dose-related gross injury to the fetal adrenal glands was observed at doses greater than 180 times the MRHDID, but there was no evidence of external or skeletal malformations or embryolethality at inhalation doses of up to 440 times the MRHDID. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) are unknown. In the US general population, the estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is -4% and 15-0%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryo/Fetal Risk The risk of complications to the mother and developing fetus from inadequate control of asthma must be balanced against the risks from exposure to beclomethasone dipropionate. In women with poorly or moderately controlled asthma, evidence demonstrates that there is an increased risk of preeclampsia in the mother and prematurity, low birth weight, and small for gestational age for the neonate. The level of asthma control should be closely monitored in pregnant women and treatment adjusted to maintain optimal control. Labor or Delivery There are no specific human data regarding any adverse effects of inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate on labor and delivery. Data Animal Data In an embryofetal development study in pregnant rats, beclomethasone dipropionate administration during organogenesis from gestation days 6 to 15 at inhaled doses 180 times the MRHDID in adults and higher (on a mg/m basis at maternal doses of 11.5 and 8.3 mg/kg/day) produced dose-dependent gross injury (characterized by red foci) of the adrenal glands in fetuses. There were no findings in the adrenal glands of rat fetuses at an inhaled dose that was 40 times the MRHDID in adults (on a mg/m basis at a maternal dose of.4 mg/kg/day). There was no evidence of external or skeletal malformations or embryolethality in rat at inhaled doses up to 440 times the MRHDID (on a mg/m basis at maternal doses up to 8.3 mg/kg/day). In an embryofetal development study in pregnant mice, beclomethasone dipropionate administration from gestation days 1 to 18 at subcutaneous doses equal to and greater than 0.75 times the MRHDID in adults (on a mg/m basis at maternal doses of 0.1 mg/kg/day and higher) produced adverse developmental effects (increased incidence of cleft palate). A no-effect dose in mice was not identified. In a second embryofetal development study in pregnant mice, beclomethasone dipropionate administration from gestation days 1 to 13 at subcutaneous doses equal to and greater than.3 times the MRHDID in adults (on a mg/m basis at a maternal dose of 0.3 mg/kg/day) produced embryolethal effects (increased fetal resorptions) and decreased pup survival. In an embryofetal development study in pregnant rabbits, beclomethasone dipropionate administration during organogenesis from gestation days 7 to 16 at subcutaneous doses equal to and greater than 0.75 times the MRHDID in adults (on a mg/m basis at maternal doses of 0.05 mg/kg/day and higher) produced external and skeletal malformations and embryolethal effects (increased fetal resorptions). There were no effects in fetuses of pregnant rabbits administered a subcutaneous dose 0. times the MRHDID in adults (on a mg/m basis at a maternal dose of 0.006 mg/kg/day). 8. Lactation Risk Summary There are no data available on the presence of beclomethasone dipropionate in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. However, other inhaled corticosteroids have been detected in human milk. The developmental 3

and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother s clinical need for QVAR REDIHALER and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from beclomethasone dipropionate or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Impairment of fertility was observed in rats and dogs at oral doses of beclomethasone dipropionate corresponding to 50 and 5 times the MRHDID for adults on a mg/m basis, respectively. [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. 8.4 Pediatric Use Five-hundred and one children between the ages of 4 and 11 were treated with at least one dose of QVAR REDIHALER or QVAR MDI in one 1-week clinical trial. The safety and effectiveness of QVAR REDIHALER in children below 4 years of age have not been established. Do not use QVAR REDIHALER with a spacer or volume holding chamber. Controlled clinical studies have shown that inhaled corticosteroids may cause a reduction in growth velocity in pediatric patients. A 1-month, randomized, controlled clinical trial evaluated the effects of QVAR MDI versus beclomethasone dipropionate in a CFC propellant-based formulation (CFC-BDP) on growth in children age 5 to 11. A total of 50 patients were enrolled, of whom 394 received QVAR MDI (100 to 400 mcg/day ex-valve) and 16 received CFC-BDP (00 to 800 mcg/day ex-valve). Similar control of asthma was noted in each treatment arm. When comparing results at month 1 to baseline, the mean growth velocity in children treated with QVAR MDI was approximately 0.5 cm/year less than that noted with children treated with CFC- BDP via large-volume spacer. The long-term effects of the reduction in growth velocity associated with orally inhaled corticosteroids, including the impact on final adult height, are unknown. The potential for catch-up growth following discontinuation of treatment with orally inhaled corticosteroids has not been adequately studied. The growth of children and adolescents receiving orally inhaled corticosteroids, including QVAR REDIHALER, should be monitored routinely (e.g., via stadiometry). If a child or adolescent on any corticosteroid appears to have growth suppression, the possibility that he/she is particularly sensitive to this effect should be considered. The potential growth effects of prolonged treatment should be weighed against clinical benefits obtained and the risks associated with alternative therapies. To minimize the systemic effects of orally inhaled corticosteroids, including QVAR REDIHALER, each patient should be titrated to his/her lowest effective dose [see Dosage and Administration (.)]. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of QVAR REDIHALER did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy. 11 DESCRIPTION The active component of QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg Inhalation Aerosol and QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg Inhalation Aerosol is beclomethasone dipropionate, USP, a corticosteroid having the chemical name 9-chloro-11ß,17,1-trihydroxy-16ß-methylpregna- 1,4-diene-3,0-dione 17,1-dipropionate. Beclomethasone dipropionate is a diester of beclomethasone, a synthetic corticosteroid chemically related to dexamethasone. Beclomethasone differs from dexamethasone in having a chlorine at the 9-alpha carbon in place of a fluorine, and in having a 16-beta-methyl group instead of a 16-alphamethyl group. Beclomethasone dipropionate is a white to creamy white, odorless powder with a molecular formula of C 8 H 37 ClO 7 and a molecular weight of 51.1. Its chemical structure is: QVAR REDIHALER is a pressurized, breath-actuated, metered-dose aerosol with a dose counter intended for oral inhalation only. Each unit consists of a sealed breathactuated inhaler device enclosing a canister containing a solution of beclomethasone dipropionate in propellant HFA-134a (1,1,1, tetrafluoroethane) and ethanol (0.85 g). QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg delivers 40 mcg of beclomethasone dipropionate from the actuator mouthpiece and 50 mcg from the canister valve. QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg delivers 80 mcg of beclomethasone dipropionate from the actuator mouthpiece and 100 mcg from the canister valve. Both products deliver 50 microliters (59 milligrams) of solution formulation as an aerosol from the canister valve with each actuation. The 40-mcg canisters and the 80-mcg canisters provide 10 inhalations each. Since the QVAR REDIHALER canister is fitted with a primeless valve, no priming actuations are required before use. For both products, an actuation was always triggered by a 0 L/min inspiratory flow rate. 1 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 1.1 Mechanism of Action Beclomethasone dipropionate is a corticosteroid demonstrating potent antiinflammatory activity. The precise mechanism of corticosteroid action on asthma is not known. Corticosteroids have been shown to have multiple anti-inflammatory effects, inhibiting both inflammatory cells (e.g., mast cells, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils) and release of inflammatory mediators (e.g., histamine, eicosanoids, leukotrienes, and cytokines). These anti-inflammatory actions of corticosteroids contribute to their efficacy in asthma. Beclomethasone dipropionate is a prodrug that is rapidly activated by hydrolysis to the active monoester, 17-monopropionate (17-BMP). Beclomethasone-17- monopropionate has been shown in vitro to exhibit a binding affinity for the human glucocorticoid receptor which is approximately 13 times that of dexamethasone, 6 times that of triamcinolone acetonide, 1.5 times that of budesonide and 5 times that of beclomethasone dipropionate. The clinical significance of these findings is unknown. Studies in patients with asthma have shown a favorable ratio between topical antiinflammatory activity and systemic corticosteroid effects with recommended doses of QVAR 1. Pharmacodynamics HPA Axis Effects The effects of QVAR MDI on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis were studied in 40 corticosteroid-naive patients. QVAR MDI, at doses of 80, 160, or 30 mcg twice daily, was compared with placebo and 336 mcg twice daily of CFC- BDP. Active treatment groups showed an expected dose-related reduction in 4-hour urinary-free cortisol (a sensitive marker of adrenal production of cortisol). Patients treated with the highest dose recommended of QVAR MDI (30 mcg twice daily) had a 37.3% reduction in 4-hour urinary-free cortisol compared to a reduction of 47.3% produced by treatment with 336 mcg twice daily of CFC-BDP. There was a 1.% reduction in 4-hour urinary-free cortisol seen in the group of patients that received 80 mcg twice daily of QVAR MDI and a 4.6% reduction in the group of patients that received 160 mcg twice daily. An open label study of 354 asthma patients given QVAR MDI at recommended doses for one year assessed the effect of treatment with this product on the HPA axis (as measured by both morning and stimulated plasma cortisol). Less than 1% of patients treated for one year with this product had an abnormal response (peak less than 18 mcg/dl) to a short-cosyntropin test. 1.3 Pharmacokinetics Beclomethasone dipropionate undergoes rapid and extensive conversion to beclomethasone-17-monopropionate (17-BMP) during absorption. The pharmacokinetics of beclomethasone dipropionate and 17-BMP were studied in subjects given single doses. Absorption The mean peak plasma concentration (C max ) of BDP was 6635 pg/ml at minutes after inhalation of 30 mcg using QVAR REDIHALER (4 inhalations of the 80 mcg/inhalation strength). The mean peak plasma concentration of the major and most active metabolite, 17-BMP, was 1464 pg/ml at 10 minutes after inhalation of 30 mcg of QVAR Distribution The in vitro protein binding for 17-BMP was reported to be 94-96% over the concentration range of 1000 to 5000 pg/ml. Protein binding was constant over the concentration range evaluated. There is no evidence of tissue storage of beclomethasone dipropionate or its metabolites. Elimination The major route of elimination of inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate appears to be via hydrolysis. More than 90% of inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate is found as 17-BMP in the systemic circulation. The mean terminal half-life of 17-BMP is approximately 4 hours for QVAR Metabolism Three major metabolites are formed via esterases: beclomethasone-17-monopropionate (17-BMP) beclomethasone-1-monopropionate (1-BMP) beclomethasone (BOH) Lung slices metabolize beclomethasone dipropionate rapidly to 17-BMP and more slowly to BOH. 17-BMP is the most active metabolite. Excretion Irrespective of the route of administration (injection, oral or inhalation), beclomethasone dipropionate and its metabolites are mainly excreted in the feces. Less than 10% of the drug and its metabolites are excreted in the urine. Specific Populations Age: No pharmacokinetic studies for QVAR REDIHALER have been conducted in neonates or elderly subjects. Pediatrics: No pharmacokinetic studies for QVAR REDIHALER have been conducted in pediatric subjects aged of 4 to 17 years. However, the pharmacokinetics of 17-BMP, including dose and strength proportionalities, is similar in children and adults using QVAR MDI, although the exposure is highly variable. In 17 children (mean age 10 years), the C max of 17-BMP was 787 pg/ml at 0.6 hour after inhalation of 160 mcg (4 actuations of the 40 mcg/actuation strength of QVAR MDI). The systemic exposure to 17-BMP from 160 mcg of QVAR MDI administered without a spacer was comparable to the systemic exposure to 17-BMP from 336 mcg CFC- BDP administered with a large volume spacer in 14 children (mean age 1 years). This implies that approximately twice the systemic exposure to 17-BMP would be expected for comparable mg doses of QVAR MDI without a spacer and CFC-BDP with a large volume spacer. Sex: The influence of sex on the pharmacokinetics of QVAR REDIHALER has not been studied. Race: The influence of race on the pharmacokinetics of QVAR REDIHALER has not been studied. Renal Impairment: The effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of QVAR REDIHALER has not been evaluated. 4

Hepatic Impairment: The effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of QVAR REDIHALER has not been evaluated. Drug Interaction Studies: In vitro and in vivo drug interaction studies have not been conducted with QVAR 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility The carcinogenicity of beclomethasone dipropionate was evaluated in rats which were exposed for a total of 95 weeks, 13 weeks at inhalation doses up to 0.4 mg/kg/day and the remaining 8 weeks at combined oral and inhalation doses up to.4 mg/kg/day. There was no evidence of treatment-related increases in the incidence of tumors in this study at the highest dose, which is approximately 37 and 7 times the MRHDID in adults and children, respectively, on a mg/m basis. Beclomethasone dipropionate did not induce gene mutation in bacterial cells or mammalian Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in vitro. No significant clastogenic effect was seen in cultured CHO cells in vitro or in the mouse micronucleus test in vivo. In rats, beclomethasone dipropionate caused decreased conception rates at an oral dose of 16 mg/kg/day (approximately 50 times the MRHDID in adults on a mg/m basis). Impairment of fertility, as evidenced by inhibition of the estrous cycle in dogs, was observed following treatment by the oral route at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day (approximately 5 times the MRHDID in adults on a mg/m basis). No inhibition of the estrous cycle in dogs was seen following 1 months of exposure to beclomethasone dipropionate by the inhalation route at an estimated daily dose of 0.33 mg/kg (approximately 17 times the MRHDID in adults on a mg/m basis). 14 CLINICAL STUDIES The safety and efficacy of QVAR REDIHALER were evaluated in 1,858 patients with asthma. The development program included confirmatory trials of 1 weeks duration and 1 confirmatory trial of 6 weeks duration in patients 1 years of age and older, and 1 confirmatory trial of 1 weeks duration in patients 4 to 11 years of age. The efficacy of QVAR REDIHALER is based primarily on the confirmatory trials described below. 14.1 Trials in the Maintenance Treatment of Asthma Adult and Adolescent Patients 1 Years of Age and Older Two confirmatory Phase 3 clinical trials were conducted comparing QVAR REDIHALER with placebo in adult and adolescent patients with persistent asthma (Trial 1 and Trial ). Trial 1(NCT0040779): This randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebocontrolled, 1-week, efficacy and safety trial compared QVAR REDIHALER 40 and 80 mcg given as 1 inhalation twice daily with placebo in adult and adolescent patients with persistent symptomatic asthma despite low-dose inhaled corticosteroid or non-corticosteroid asthma therapy. Patients aged 1 years and older who met the entry criteria including FEV 1 40-85 percent of predicted normal, reversible bronchoconstriction of 15% with short-acting inhaled beta-agonist entered a 14-1 day run-in period. 70 patients (104 previously treated with inhaled corticosteroids) who met all the randomization criteria including asthma symptoms and rescue medication use were discontinued from asthma maintenance medication and randomized equally to treatment with QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg/day, QVAR REDIHALER 160 mcg/day or placebo. Baseline FEV 1 values were similar across treatments. The primary endpoint for this trial was the standardized baselineadjusted trough morning forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1 ) area under the effect curve from time zero to 1 weeks [FEV 1 AUEC(0-1wk)]. Patients in both treatment groups had significantly greater improvements in trough FEV 1 compared to placebo (QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg/day, LS mean change of 0.14 L and QVAR REDIHALER 160 mcg/day, LS mean change of 0.116 L over 1 weeks) (Table 3). In addition, the mean change from baseline is displayed in Figure 1. Both doses of QVAR REDIHALER were effective in improving asthma control with significantly greater improvements in FEV 1 and morning PEF when compared to placebo. Reduction in asthma symptoms was also supportive of the efficacy of QVAR Figure 1: A 1-Week Clinical Trial in Patients with Asthma: Mean Change in FEV 1 Trial (NCT0513160): This randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebocontrolled, 6-week, efficacy and safety trial compared QVAR REDIHALER 40 and 80 mcg given as 4 inhalations twice daily and placebo in adult and adolescent patients with persistent symptomatic asthma despite treatment with non-corticosteroid, inhaled corticosteroids (with or without a long acting beta agonist [LABA]), or combination asthma therapy. The study also included a reference treatment group, QVAR 5 Inhalation Aerosol (QVAR MDI) 40 mcg, 4 inhalations twice daily. Patients aged 1 years and older who met the entry criteria including FEV 1 50-90% predicted normal, reversible bronchoconstriction of at least 10% with short-acting inhaled beta-agonist discontinued baseline asthma treatment and entered a -4 week run-in period. 45 patients (57 previously treated with ICS with or without LABA) who met all the randomization criteria including FEV 1 of 40-85% predicted and 15% reversibility with short-acting inhaled beta-agonist, and asthma symptoms were randomized equally to QVAR REDIHALER 30 mcg/day, QVAR REDIHALER 640 mcg/day, QVAR MDI 30 mcg/day or placebo. Baseline FEV 1 values were similar across treatments. The primary endpoint for this trial was the standardized baseline-adjusted trough morning forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1 ) area under the effect curve from time zero to 6 weeks [FEV 1 AUEC(0-6wk)]. Patients in both treatment groups had significantly greater improvements in trough FEV 1 compared to placebo (QVAR REDIHALER 30 mcg/day, LS mean change of 0.144 L and QVAR REDIHALER 640 mcg/day, LS mean change of 0.150 L over 6 weeks) (Table 3). Treatment with QVAR MDI was similar. The change from baseline in morning FEV 1 during the trial is displayed in Figure. Both doses of QVAR REDIHALER were effective in improving asthma control with significantly greater improvements in FEV 1, morning PEF, weekly average of daily trough morning FEV 1, reduced rescue medication use and improved asthma symptom scores than with placebo. Similar results were demonstrated with QVAR MDI.

Patients aged 4 to 5 years who were technically unable to complete spirometry participated in the safety population. Patients who met the entry criteria including FEV 1 40-90% predicted normal and reversible bronchoconstriction of at least 1% with short acting inhaled beta agonist entered a 14-1 day run in period. Patients who met the randomization criteria including asthma symptoms and rescue medication use discontinued asthma therapy and were randomized equally across treatment groups. Five hundred sixtyeight (568) pediatric patients with symptomatic asthma of which 410 had previously been treated with low dose inhaled corticosteroids with or without a LABA were randomized to receive either 40 mcg or 80 mcg twice daily of QVAR REDIHALER, QVAR MDI or placebo. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in trough percent predicted FEV 1 AUEC (0-1 weeks). While the primary endpoint, was not

statistically significant, change in weekly average of daily morning peak expiratory flow (PEF, L/min) over the 1 week treatment period was 11.3 [95% CI: 5.58, 17.06] and 8.5 [95% CI:.71, 14.4] for the 80 mcg/day and 160 mcg/day doses of QVAR REDIHALER, respectively, at nominal significance. Similar results were seen with evening PEF. 16 HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING 16.1 How Supplied QVAR REDIHALER is supplied in strengths: QVAR REDIHALER 40 mcg is supplied in a box of one 10.6-g canister containing 10 actuations which is enclosed within a sealed beige plastic actuator with a dose counter and hinged white cap, and Patient Information and Instructions for Use; box of one; 10 Actuations NDC 59310-30-40 QVAR REDIHALER 80 mcg is supplied in a box of one 10.6-g canister containing 10 actuations which is enclosed within a sealed maroon plastic actuator with a dose counter and hinged white dust cap, and Patient Information and Instructions for Use; box of one; 10 Actuations NDC 59310-304-80 The correct amount of medication in each inhalation cannot be assured after 10 actuations from the 10.6-g canister even though the canister is not completely empty. Patients should be informed to discard the QVAR REDIHALER when the dose counter displays 0 or after the expiration date on the product, whichever comes first. 16. Storage and Handling Store at 5 C (77 F). Excursions between 15 and 30 C (59 and 86 F) are permitted (see USP Controlled Room Temperature). For optimal results, QVAR REDIHALER should be at room temperature when used. CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE Do not use or store near heat or open flame. Exposure to temperatures above 49 C (10 F) may cause bursting. Never throw QVAR REDIHALER into fire or incinerator. Keep out of reach of children. 17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION Advise the patient to read the FDA-Approved Patient Labeling (Patient Information and Instructions for Use). Patients should be given the following information: Local Effects Inform patients that localized infections with Candida albicans occurred in the mouth and pharynx in some patients. If oropharyngeal candidiasis develops, treat it with appropriate local or systemic (i.e., oral) antifungal therapy while still continuing therapy with QVAR REDIHALER, but at times therapy with QVAR REDIHALER may need to be temporarily interrupted under close medical supervision. Rinsing the mouth with water without swallowing after inhalation is advised to help reduce the risk of thrush. Status Asthmaticus and Acute Asthma Symptoms Inform patients that QVAR REDIHALER is not a bronchodilator and is not intended for use as rescue medicine for acute asthma exacerbations. Advise patients to treat acute asthma symptoms with an inhaled, short-acting beta -agonist such as albuterol. Instruct the patient to contact their physicians immediately if there is deterioration of their asthma. Immunosuppression Warn patients who are on immunosuppressant doses of corticosteroids to avoid exposure to chickenpox or measles and, if exposed, to consult their physicians without delay. Inform patients of potential worsening of existing tuberculosis; fungal, bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections; or ocular herpes simplex. Hypercorticism and Adrenal Suppression Advise patients that QVAR REDIHALER may cause systemic corticosteroid effects of hypercorticism and adrenal suppression. Additionally, instruct patients that deaths due to adrenal insufficiency have occurred during and after transfer from systemic corticosteroids. Patients should taper slowly from systemic corticosteroids if transferring to QVAR Immediate Hypersensitivity Reactions Advise patients that immediate hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., urticaria, angioedema, rash, bronchospasm, and hypotension), including anaphylaxis, may occur after administration of QVAR Patients should discontinue QVAR REDIHALER if such reactions occur and contact their healthcare provider or get emergency medical help. Reduction in Bone Mineral Density Advise patients who are at an increased risk for decreased BMD that the use of corticosteroids may pose an additional risk. Reduced Growth Velocity Inform patients that orally inhaled corticosteroids, including QVAR REDIHALER, may cause a reduction in growth velocity when administered to pediatric patients. Physicians should closely follow the growth of adolescents taking corticosteroids by any route. Ocular Effects Long-term use of inhaled corticosteroids may increase the risk of some eye problems (cataracts, glaucoma or blurred vision); consider regular eye examinations. Pregnancy Inform patients who are pregnant or nursing that they should contact their physician about the use of QVAR Use Daily for Best Effect Patients should use QVAR REDIHALER at regular intervals as directed. The daily dosage of QVAR REDIHALER should not exceed 8 inhalations per day. Advise patients, if they miss a dose, to take their next dose at the same time they normally do. Individual patients will experience a variable time to onset and degree of symptom relief and the full benefit may not be achieved until treatment has been administered for 1 to weeks or longer. Patients should not increase the prescribed dosage but should contact their physicians if symptoms do not improve or if the condition worsens. Instruct patients to not stop use of QVAR REDIHALER abruptly. Patients should contact their physicians immediately if they discontinue use of QVAR Caring for and Storing the Inhaler For normal hygiene, the mouthpiece of QVAR REDIHALER should be cleaned weekly with a clean, dry tissue or cloth. Never wash or put any part of QVAR REDIHALER in water. Patient should replace QVAR REDIHALER if washed or placed in water. Instruct patients to store the inhaler at room temperature and to avoid exposure to extreme heat and cold. Inform patients that shaking the inhaler prior to use is not necessary. Instruct patients not to shake the inhaler with the cap open to avoid possible actuation of the device. Instruct patients to never take QVAR REDIHALER apart. Inform patients that QVAR REDIHALER has a dose counter attached to the actuator at the rear of the mouth piece. When the patient receives the inhaler, the number 10 will be displayed. The dose counter will count down each time a spray is released. The dose-counter window displays the number of sprays left in the inhaler in units of two (e.g., 10,, 116, etc). When the counter displays 0, the color of the numbers will change to red to remind the patient to contact their pharmacist for a refill of medication or consult their healthcare provider for a prescription refill. When the dose counter reaches 0, the background will change to solid red. Inform patients to discard QVAR REDIHALER when the dose counter displays 0 or after the expiration date on the product, whichever comes first.
