The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to permit the emergency use of the unapproved product, Fresenius Propoven 2% (propofol 20 mg/mL) Emulsion 100 mL, to maintain sedation via continuous infusion in patients greater than 16 years old who require mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting.CAUTION: THERE IS RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL OVERDOSE WITH THIS UNAPPROVED PRODUCT.Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion contains the same active ingredient, propofol, as FDA-approved Diprivan Injectable Emulsion USP 10 mg/mL, but contains double the concentration. BECAUSE OF THIS DIFFERENCE IN CONCENTRATION BETWEEN THIS UNAPPROVED PRODUCT AND THE FDA-APPROVED PRODUCT, THERE IS RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL OVERDOSE.NOTE IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES IN FORMULATION AND LABELING BETWEEN THE CURRENT U.S. MARKETED FDA-APPROVED DIPRIVAN INJECTABLE EMULSION, USP 10 MG/ML(R)(DIPRIVAN(R)) PRODUCTS AND FRESENIUS PROPOVEN 2% EMULSION. SEE DETAILS BELOW BEFORE ADMINISTERING FRESENIUS PROPOVEN 2% EMULSION.Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion 100mL is not an FDA-approved drug in the United States. However, FDA has issued an EUA permitting the emergency use of Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion during the COVID-19 pandemic.The scope of the EUA is limited as follows:Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion will be used only to maintain sedation via continuous infusion in patients greater than 16 years old who require mechanical ventilation.Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion will be administered only by licensed healthcare provider in an ICU setting.Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion will NOT be administered to pregnant women, unless there are no FDA-approved products available to maintain sedation for these patients should they require mechanical ventilation in an ICU setting.Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion will be used only in accordance with the dosing regimens as detailed in the authorized Fact Sheets.Product DescriptionConsistent with the EUA, Fresenius Kabi USA will offer the following presentation of Fresenius Propoven 2% (propofol 20 mg/mL) Emulsion:NOTE: This propofol 20 mg/mL product contains double the concentration of propofol compared to the FDA-approved and marketed Diprivan (propofol) Injectable Emulsion, USP 10 mg/mL product.Product Name And DescriptionMCT/LCT ConcentrationSource/ Type of OilSizeFresenius Propoven 2%Propofol Emulsion for Continuous Infusion 2,000 mg/100 mL(20 mg/mL)Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) 50 mg/mLLong Chain Triglycerides (LCT) 50 mg/mLsoybean oil, refined; medium-chain triglycerides100 mLFresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion 50 mL is approved in Europe and other international countries.

Fresenius Propoven 2% (propofol 20 mg/mL) is DOUBLE THE CONCENTRATION of USmarketed Diprivan 10 mg/mL (Diprivan 1%). Exercise caution and implement steps to ensure dosing calculations, infusion rates, and infusion pump settings are accurate. Addition of the new concentration (20 mg/mL) to the drug library of the respective pumps and to electronic health records (EHR) must be implemented.IndicationGeneral anesthesia, procedural sedation, ICU sedationICU sedation ONLYFresenius Propoven 2% is only to maintain sedation via continuous infusion in patients greater than 16 years old who require mechanical ventilation in the ICU setting. Patient PopulationGreater than years old (procedural sedation and general anesthesia) Greater than 16 years old (ICU sedation)Greater than 16 years old (ICU sedation)Fresenius Propoven 2% is only indicated to maintain sedation via continuous infusion for patients greater than 16 years old who require mechanical ventilation in the ICU setting. Fresenius Propoven 2% should not be used in pregnant women unless there are no FDA-approved products available to maintain sedation for these patients who require mechanical ventilation in an ICU setting.CompositionContains long-chain triglycerides (LCT)Contains combination of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) and long-chain triglycerides (LCT)Prolonged IV infusion of MCT to pregnant rabbits has been reported in the published literature to increase the RISK OF NEURAL TUBE DEFECTS. Because it is not yet clear if there is differential risk for adverse developmental effects with Fresenius Propoven 2% compared to Diprivan 1%, Fresenius Propoven 2% SHOULD NOT BE USED IN PREGNANT WOMEN unless there are no FDA-approved products available to maintain sedation in these patients who require mechanical ventilation in an ICU setting.DosingSee package insertAdministration rates of 0.3 to 4.0 mg propofol/kg bodyweight/h have been demonstrated to provide adequate sedationInfusion rates greater than 4.0 mg propofol/kg bodyweight/h are not recommended due to risk of Propofol Infusion Syndrome.The duration of administration must not exceed days.Method of administrationBolus or infusionInfusion ONLYFresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion is administered undiluted intravenously by continuous infusion. Containers should be shaken before use. If two layers can be seen after shaking the emulsion should not be used. Do not admix with other medicinal products. Co-administration of other medicinal products or fluids added to the Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion infusion line must occur close to the cannula site using Y-piece connector or three-way valve. Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion must not be administered via microbiological filter.Other Special Patient PopulationsSee package insertCaution should be taken when treating patients with mitochondrial disease, epilepsy, and disorders of fat metabolism.Patients with mitochondrial disease may be susceptible to exacerbations of their disorder when undergoing ICU care. Maintenance of normothermia, provision of carbohydrates and good hydration are recommended for such patients. The early presentations of mitochondrial disease exacerbation and of the propofol infusion syndrome may be similar. Although several studies have demonstrated efficacy in treating status epilepticus, administration of propofol in epileptic patients may also increase the risk of seizure. For these patients, as well as for ARDS/respiratory failure and tetanus patients, sedation maintenance dosages were generally higher than those for other critically ill patient populations. Appropriate care should be applied in patients with disorders of fat metabolism and in other conditions where lipid emulsions must be used cautiously. It is recommended that blood lipid levels should be monitored if propofol is administered to patientsthought to be at particular risk of fat overload. Administration of propofol should be adjusted appropriately if the monitoring indicates that fat is being inadequately cleared from the body. If the patient is receiving other intravenous lipid concurrently, reduction in quantity should be made in order to take account of the amount of lipid infused as part of the propofol formulation; 1.0 mL of Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion contains approximately 0.1 of fat.Drug InteractionsSee package insertDrug interaction with fentanyl, cyclosporine and valproateAfter administration of fentanyl, the blood level of propofol may be temporarily increased with an increase in the rate of apnea. Leukoencephalopathy has been reported with administration of lipid emulsions as used for Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion in patients receiving cyclosporine. need for lower propofol doses has been observed in patients taking valproate. When used concomitantly, dose reduction of propofol may be considered.Presence of antimicrobial retardantYesNOFresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion does NOT contain an anti-microbial retardant such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), sodium metabisulfite, or benzyl alcohol/sodium benzoate. STRICT ASEPTIC TECHNIQUE MUST ALWAYS BE MAINTAINED DURING HANDLING. Each vial of Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion is intended only for single administration for an individual patient. Vials are not intended for multiple use. If propofol is to be aspirated, it must be drawn aseptically into sterile syringe immediately after breaking the vial seal. Administration must commence without delay. The unused portion of vial should be discarded immediately after opening. As with any propofol used in IV infusion, discard all product and infusion lines after 12 hours. ContraindicationsSee package insertFresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion should not be used in patients whoFresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to propofol orare hypersensitive to peanut or soy.any of the excipients: Soybean oil; Medium-chain triglycerides; Purified egg phosphatides; Glycerol; Oleic acid; Sodium hydroxide; Water for injections Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion should not be used in patients who are hypersensitive to peanut or soy.Bar codeUnit of use barcode on individual vialsNo unit of use barcodeThe barcode used on Fresenius Propoven 2% Emulsion may not register accurately on U.S. scanning systems.
