IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ABOUT ZOLADEX® (goserelin acetate implant) Specific to the male indications: • A naphylactic reactions to ZOLADEX have been reported in the medical literature. ZOLADEX is contraindicated in patients who have a known sensitivity to GnRH, GnRH agonist analogues, or any of the components in ZOLADEX
07
• T ransient worsening of tumor symptoms, or the occurrence of additional signs and symptoms of prostate cancer, may occasionally develop during the first few weeks of treatment with ZOLADEX. Some patients may experience a temporary increase in bone pain. Monitor patients at risk for complications of tumor flare. As with other GnRH agonists, isolated cases of ureteral obstruction and spinal cord compression have been observed. If spinal cord compression or renal impairment secondary to ureteral obstruction develops, standard treatment should be instituted and in extreme cases, an immediate orchiectomy • H yperglycemia and an increased risk of developing diabetes or worsening of glycemic control in patients with diabetes have been reported in men receiving GnRH agonists like ZOLADEX. Monitor blood glucose levels and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) periodically and manage according to current clinical practice • Increased risk of developing myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death and stroke has been reported in association with use of GnRH agonists like ZOLADEX in men. Patients receiving a GnRH agonist should be monitored for symptoms and signs suggestive of development of cardiovascular disease and be managed according to current clinical practice • H ypercalcemia has been reported in patients with bone metastases. Patients should be monitored and managed appropriately. There have been postmarketing reports of osteoporosis, decreased bone mineral density, and bony fracture in men treated with ZOLADEX
Please see accompanying Full Prescribing Information. ZOLADEX® (goserelin acetate implant) — Important Safety Information
• T he most commonly observed adverse reactions during ZOLADEX treatment for prostatic carcinoma were due to the expected physiological effects from decreased testosterone levels. The most common adverse reactions (incidence of >5% in prostate clinical trials) were: — F or ZOLADEX 3.6 mg - depot - hot flashes (62%), sexual dysfunction (21%), decreased erections (18%), lower urinary tract symptoms (13%), lethargy (8%), pain (worsened in the first 30 days) (8%), edema (7%), upper respiratory infection (7%), rash (6%), and sweating (6%). — F or ZOLADEX 10.8 mg - depot - hot flashes (64%), pain (general) (14%), gynecomastia (8%), pelvic pain (6%), and bone pain (6%) • In the locally advanced carcinoma of the prostate clinical trial, additional adverse event data were collected for the combination therapy with radiation group during both the hormonal treatment and hormonal treatment plus radiation phases of this study. Adverse experiences (incidence >5%) in both phases of this study were hot flashes (46%), diarrhea (40%), nausea (9%), and skin rash (8%). Treatment with ZOLADEX and flutamide did not add substantially to the toxicity of radiation treatment alone Specific to the female indications: • A naphylactic reactions to ZOLADEX have been reported in the medical literature. ZOLADEX is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to GnRH, GnRH agonist analogues, or any of the components in ZOLADEX • Z OLADEX is contraindicated during pregnancy unless used for palliative treatment of advanced breast cancer. ZOLADEX can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. If used during pregnancy, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. There is an increased risk for pregnancy loss due to expected hormonal changes that occur with ZOLADEX treatment. ZOLADEX should not be given to women with undiagnosed abnormal vaginal bleeding • P regnancy must be excluded for use in benign gynecological conditions. Women should be advised against becoming pregnant while taking ZOLADEX. Effective nonhormonal contraception must be used by all premenopausal women during ZOLADEX therapy and for 12 weeks following discontinuation of therapy

• T ransient worsening of tumor symptoms, or the occurrence of additional signs and symptoms of breast cancer, may occasionally develop during the first few weeks of treatment. Some patients may experience a temporary increase in bone pain. Monitor patients at risk for complications of tumor flare
INDICATIONS
INDICATIONS
ZOLADEX is indicated for use in combination with flutamide for the management of locally confined Stage T2b-T4 (Stage B2-C) carcinoma of the prostate. Treatment with ZOLADEX and flutamide should start 8 weeks prior to initiating radiation therapy and continue during radiation therapy.
ZOLADEX 3.6-mg depot is indicated for the management of endometriosis, including pain relief and reduction of endometriotic lesions for the duration of therapy. Experience with ZOLADEX for the management of endometriosis has been limited to women 18 years of age or older treated for 6 months.
ZOLADEX is indicated for the palliative treatment of advanced carcinoma of the prostate.
ZOLADEX 3.6-mg depot is indicated for use as an endometrial-thinning agent prior to endometrial ablation for dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
• H ypercalcemia has been reported in some breast cancer patients with bone metastases. Patients should be monitored and managed appropriately • Z OLADEX may cause an increase in cervical resistance. Therefore, caution is recommended when dilating the cervix for endometrial ablation • T reatment with ZOLADEX may be associated with a reduction in bone mineral density over the course of treatment. Data suggests a possibility of partial reversibility. In women, current available data suggests that recovery of bone loss occurs on cessation of therapy in the majority of patients • T he most frequently reported adverse reactions were related to hypoestrogenism. The adverse reaction profile was similar for women treated for breast cancer, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and endometriosis
