1. What is Breakyl and what is it used for

Breakyl buccal film contains the active substance fentanyl, which is a potent medicine for the treatment of pain, known as an opioid. Breakyl is indicated for the treatment of breakthrough cancer pain in adult patients. Breakthrough pain is a sudden increase in pain. This can occur even when you are already taking regular pain-relieving medicines, such as opioids, for your chronic cancer pain.

Breakyl should only be used if you are already taking and are tolerant to regular opioid therapy for your chronic cancer pain, such as morphine, oxycodone or transdermal fentanyl for at least one week.

2. What you need to know before you use Breakyl

Do notuse Breakyl

  • If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to fentanyl or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • If you are currently taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) (used for severe depression) or have taken them in the last 2 weeks.
  • If you are taking a medicine that contains sodium oxybate.
  • If you have severe respiratory problems or severe obstructive lung disease (such as severe asthma).
  • If you are not already using a prescribed opioid medicine every day at the same time for at least one week to control your persistent pain. If you have not been using these medicines, do not useBreakyl as its use may increase the risk of your breathing becoming slower and/or shallower and even stopping.
  • If you have short-term pain which is not breakthrough pain.

Warnings and precautions

Keep this medicine out of the sight and reach of other people, in a safe place (for more information, see section 5. Storing Breakyl).

Tell your doctor before you start using Breakyl if you have any of the following problems, as your doctor will need to consider this when prescribing your dose:

  • Your other opioid pain medicine for your chronic cancer pain has not yet been stabilised.
  • You have any breathing problems.
  • You have had a head injury or your doctor has told you that you have increased pressure in your head.
  • You have heart problems, especially slow heart rate or other heart problems.
  • You have low blood pressure, especially if this is due to a reduced amount of fluid in the circulation.
  • You have liver or kidney problems, as these organs affect how your body gets rid of the medicine.
  • You have mouth ulcers.
  • You have ever had addiction problems or been dependent on opioids, alcohol, prescription medicines or illegal drugs.
  • You are taking antidepressants or antipsychotics, see section “Other medicines and Breakyl”.

See additional information in section 3.

Sleep apnoea syndrome

Breakyl may cause sleep apnoea syndrome, including sleep apnoea (pauses in breathing when asleep) and sleep-related hypoxemia (low levels of oxygen in the blood). Symptoms may include pauses in breathing when asleep, waking up during the night due to lack of breath, difficulty staying asleep or excessive sleepiness during the day. If you or another person notice these symptoms, contact your doctor to consider the possibility of reducing the dose.

Tell your doctor if, while using Breakyl, you:

  • Feel pain or increased sensitivity to pain (hyperalgesia) that does not respond to a higher dose of the medicine as prescribed by your doctor.
  • Experience a combination of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, fatigue, weakness, dizziness and low blood pressure. Together, these symptoms can be a sign of a potentially life-threatening condition called adrenal insufficiency, in which the adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones.
  • Have ever had adrenal insufficiency or a lack of sex hormones (androgen deficiency) with the use of opioids.

Long-term use and tolerance

This medicine contains fentanyl, an opioid. Repeated use of opioid pain-relievers can make the medicine less effective (your body gets used to it, which is known as pharmacological tolerance). You may also become more sensitive to pain when using Breakyl. This is known as hyperalgesia. Increasing the dose of Breakyl may continue to relieve pain for a time, but it can also be harmful. If you notice that the medicine is becoming less effective, talk to your doctor. Your doctor will decide whether it is best for you to increase the dose or gradually reduce your use of Breakyl.

Dependence and addiction

This medicine contains fentanyl, which is an opioid. It can cause dependence and/or addiction.

Repeated use of Breakyl can also lead to dependence, abuse and addiction, which could result in a potentially life-threatening overdose. The risk of these side effects may be greater with higher doses and longer use. Dependence or addiction can lead to a loss of control over the amount of medicine you use or how often you use it. You may feel a need to keep using the medicine even if it is no longer relieving pain.

The risk of dependence or addiction varies from person to person. Your risk of becoming dependent on or addicted to Breakyl may be greater if:

  • you or a member of your family have abused alcohol or have been dependent on alcohol, prescription medicines or illegal drugs (“addiction”).
  • you smoke.
  • you have ever had problems with your mood (depression, anxiety or personality disorder) or have been treated by a psychiatrist for other mental health problems.

If you notice any of the following symptoms while using Breakyl, it could be a sign of dependence or addiction.

  • you need to use the medicine for longer than your doctor has instructed.
  • you need to use a higher dose than recommended.
  • you are using the medicine for reasons other than those for which it was prescribed, for example, “to feel calm” or “to help you sleep”.
  • you have repeatedly tried to stop or control your use of the medicine but have been unsuccessful.
  • you feel unwell when you stop using the medicine (for example, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, anxiety, shivering, shaking and sweating), and you feel better once you start using it again (“withdrawal symptoms”).

If you notice any of these signs, talk to your doctor to determine the best course of treatment for you, when it is appropriate to stop the medicine and how to do so safely.

Children and adolescents

Do not give this medicine to children aged 0 to 18 years.

Breakyl contains fentanyl in an amount that can be fatal for a child. Therefore, Breakyl must be kept out of the sight and reach of children at all times.

If you are an athlete, you should be aware that this product may produce a positive reaction in anti-doping tests.

Other medicines and Breakyl

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used or might use any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription.

Do not use Breakyl if you are currently taking, or have taken in the last 2 weeks, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) (used for severe depression).

If you are taking any of the following medicines, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you start using Breakyl: Any medicine that makes you feel drowsy or sleepy, such as:

  • sleeping pills,
  • medicines for treating anxiety, nervousness, depression,
  • medicines for treating tension or stiffness in the muscles (muscle relaxants),
  • medicines for treating allergies (antihistamines).

Medicines that can affect how (the enzyme CYP3A4 in) your body breaks down Breakyl, as they may increase the levels of fentanyl in your blood. The consequence of this may be an increase or prolongation of the effects of Breakyl and may cause potentially fatal breathing problems. These medicines include, for example:

  • medicines for treating bacterial infections (such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, telithromycin).
  • medicines for treating fungal infections (such as ketoconazole, itraconazole, fluconazole).
  • medicines for treating viral infections, including HIV (such as ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, saquinavir).
  • medicines for treating cardiovascular diseases (such as diltiazem, verapamil).
  • medicines for treating severe nausea (such as aprepitant, dronabinol).
  • medicines for treating depression (such as fluoxetine).
  • medicines that inhibit the production of stomach acid (such as cimetidine).

The risk of side effects increases if you are taking certain antidepressants or antipsychotics. Breakyl may interact with these medicines and may cause changes in mental status (such as agitation, hallucinations, coma) and other effects such as body temperature above 38°C, increased heart rate, unstable blood pressure and exaggerated reflexes, muscle stiffness, lack of coordination and/or gastrointestinal symptoms (such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea). Your doctor will tell you if Breakyl is suitable for you.

Medicines that can increase how (the enzyme CYP3A4 in) your body breaks down fentanyl, reducing the effectiveness of Breakyl, such as:

  • sleeping pills or sedatives (such as phenobarbital),
  • medicines for controlling fits/epileptic seizures (such as carbamazepine, phenytoin, oxcarbazepine),
  • medicines for controlling the spread of viruses (such as efavirenz, nevirapine),
  • anti-inflammatory medicines or immunosuppressants (such as glucocorticoids),
  • medicines for treating diabetes (such as pioglitazone),
  • antibiotics for treating tuberculosis (such as rifabutin, rifampicin),
  • psychostimulant medicines (such as modafinil),
  • medicines for treating depression (such as St John’s Wort).

If you stop treatment or reduce the dose of these active substances during treatment with Breakyl, tell your doctor. Your doctor will closely monitor you for signs of opioid toxicity and may adjust the dose of Breakyl accordingly.

Using Breakyl and sedative medicines such as benzodiazepines or related medicines at the same time increases the risk of drowsiness, difficulty breathing (respiratory depression), coma and can put your life at risk. Therefore, using them at the same time should be avoided if other treatment options are possible.

However, if Breakyl is prescribed with sedative medicines, your doctor will limit the dose and duration of treatment.

Tell your doctor about all sedative medicines you are taking and closely follow your doctor’s dose recommendation. It may be useful to inform friends or family members who are aware of the signs and symptoms mentioned above. Contact your doctor if you experience these symptoms.

If you take certain types of strong painkillers, known as partial agonist/antagonists, such as buprenorphine, nalbuphine and pentazocine (medicines for treating pain), you may experience symptoms of withdrawal syndrome (nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, anxiety, shivering, shaking and sweating) while using these medicines.

Using Breakyl with food, drinks and alcohol

Avoid drinking alcohol, as alcohol can have an additional sedative and depressant effect on your breathing. Do not drink grapefruit juice, as it can slow down how your body breaks down fentanyl, which can result in increased or prolonged effects of Breakyl, causing potentially fatal breathing problems.

Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine.

You should not use Breakyl if you are pregnant, unless you have discussed this with your doctor. You should not use Breakyl during labour, as fentanyl can cause breathing difficulties in the newborn.

Fentanyl can pass into breast milk and cause side effects in the breast-fed baby. Do not use Breakyl if you are breast-feeding. You should not start breast-feeding until at least 5 days after the last dose of Breakyl.

Driving and using machines

Ask your doctor whether it is safe for you to drive a vehicle or use machines in the hours following the use of Breakyl.

Opioid pain-relievers, such as fentanyl, can affect your mental and/or physical ability to perform tasks that require you to be alert, such as driving or operating machinery. You should not drive or operate machinery if you feel drowsy or dizzy, have blurred or double vision or experience difficulties in concentrating while using Breakyl.

Breakyl contains propylene glycol (E1520), sodium benzoate (E211), methyl parahydroxybenzoate (E218) and propyl parahydroxybenzoate (E216).

Sodium benzoate may be slightly irritating to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Methyl parahydroxybenzoate and propyl parahydroxybenzoate may cause allergic reactions (which may be delayed). Propylene glycol may cause skin irritation. This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per buccal film, i.e. it is essentially sodium-free.

3. How to use Breakyl

Before starting treatment and on a regular basis during treatment, your doctor will also explain what you can expect from using Breakyl, when and for how long you should use it, when you should contact your doctor, and when you should stop using it (see also section 2).

Follow your doctor's instructions for administering Breakyl exactly. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts.

Dosage

When you start using Breakyl, your doctor will determine the dose that will relieve your breakthrough pain (dose titration) together with you. This step is necessary because it is not possible to predict the dose of Breakyl that will be effective in your individual case based on the daily dose of opioids you consume for the treatment of chronic oncologic pain, or any other medication you may have taken previously for oncologic breakthrough pain.

For dose titration, the dose is gradually increased. Once the dose that provides you with adequate pain relief within 30 minutes is reached and any potential side effects are acceptable to you, you will have identified the effective dose. It is essential that you strictly follow your doctor's instructions.

Usually, the following procedure will be used for Dose Titration.

Dose Titration

You should start with an initial dose of 200 micrograms of Breakyl.

Contact your doctor if you do not achieve adequate relief from breakthrough pain 30 minutes after applying the Breakyl dose. If you have tolerated the dose, your doctor will recommend treating the next episode of breakthrough pain with the next higher dose of Breakyl. Your doctor may gradually increase the dose from 200 to 400 and 600 micrograms up to 800 micrograms.

By applying a combination of Breakyl buccal films simultaneously, it is possible to achieve the following higher doses:

1 Breakyl 200 buccal film is equivalent to a dose of 200 micrograms

2 Breakyl 200 buccal films are equivalent to a dose of 400 micrograms

3 Breakyl 200 buccal films are equivalent to a dose of 600 micrograms

4 Breakyl 200 buccal films are equivalent to a dose of 800 micrograms

If the combination of 4 buccal films at the same time (800 micrograms) is not sufficient to relieve pain, your doctor may prescribe Breakyl 1200 micrograms. This is the maximum available dose of Breakyl.

Once you have identified the effective dose, your doctor will provide you with a prescription for this dose for the treatment of subsequent episodes of breakthrough pain, using this established dose.

Breakyl should be used only once per episode of breakthrough pain and you should wait at least 4 hours before using the next dose of Breakyl.

If you do not achieve adequate pain relief within 30 minutes of applying a Breakyl dose, you may use another rescue medication for breakthrough pain if your doctor has indicated it.

Frequency of Administration

You should not take more than four doses of Breakyl per day.

Dose Adjustment

Inform your doctor immediately if you experience more than four episodes of breakthrough pain per day. In this case, your doctor may choose to increase your medication for persistent cancer pain. When your persistent cancer pain has been controlled, your doctor may need to adjust the Breakyl dose again. To achieve better results, inform your doctor about the evolution of your pain and the action of Breakyl, so that the dose can be adjusted if necessary.

Do not modify the Breakyl doses or your regular opioid therapy on your own. Dose variations must be indicated and controlled by your doctor.

Methods of Administration

The Breakyl buccal film should be applied to the buccal mucosa. When you fix the buccal film to the inside of your cheek, fentanyl is absorbed directly through the mouth coating into the bloodstream.

  • Open the Breakyl envelope immediately before using it, as instructed on the envelope;
  • Use your tongue to moisten the inside of your cheek, or rinse your mouth with water to moisten the area where Breakyl will be placed;
  • With dry hands, place the Breakyl buccal film between your index finger and thumb, with the pink side facing your thumb (Figure 1);
  • Carefully place the pink side of the Breakyl buccal film against the inside of your cheek (Figure 2);
  • Press and hold it in place for at least 5 seconds, until it adheres firmly. At this point, the white side of the buccal film should be visible (Figure 3);
  • If you apply more than one Breakyl buccal film at the same time, make sure each film adheres directly to the buccal mucosa. To avoid overlapping, you can apply the film to both sides - left and right - of the buccal mucosa.

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

The Breakyl buccal film should remain in place on its own after this period.

You can drink liquids after 5 minutes.

Usually, the buccal film will dissolve completely within 15 to 30 minutes after application. In isolated cases, complete dissolution may take more than 30 minutes, but this does not affect the absorption of fentanyl.

Avoid manipulating the buccal film with your tongue or fingers. You should not eat while the film has not dissolved completely.

Do not chew or swallow the Breakyl film. If you do, you may get less relief from your breakthrough pain.

If you use more Breakyl than you should or if you think someone has used Breakyl accidentally

If after using Breakyl you start to feel very sleepy, remove the Breakyl buccal film from your mouth as soon as possible or even parts of it, and seek help from another person.

If you have taken more Breakyl than you should, you or your caregiver should contact your doctor, hospital, or emergency service, so they can assess the risk and indicate how to act.

Overdose symptoms may be:

  • significant drowsiness,
  • dizziness,
  • nausea or vomiting,
  • very slow and/or shallow breathing,
  • or decreased body temperature, slow heart rate, difficulty coordinating arms and legs.

An overdose can also cause a brain disorder known as toxic leukoencephalopathy.

If someone has accidentally used Breakyl, they may have the same symptoms as those described for overdose.

At the beginning of treatment, these symptoms may appear if your Breakyl dose is too high or if you use too much Breakyl. You and your caregiver should discuss with your doctor the immediate actions to be taken in this case.

Note for caregivers:

If you notice that the patient taking Breakyl or someone who has accidentally taken Breakyl, even if it has not been prescribed to them, has slow and/or shallow breathing, or if it has been very difficult to wake them up, take the following actions immediately:

  • If the Breakyl buccal film is still attached to the inside of the patient's cheek, remove the film from the patient's mouth as soon as possible, or even parts of it.
  • Call emergency services.
  • While waiting for emergency help:
    • If the person is asleep, wake them up by calling their name and moving their arms or shoulders.
    • If the person appears to be breathing slowly, force them to breathe every 5-10 seconds.
    • If the person has stopped breathing, apply mouth-to-mouth breathing until help arrives.

If you stop treatment with Breakyl

You should stop using Breakyl when you no longer have breakthrough pain. However, you should continue taking your usual opioid medications to treat persistent cancer pain as your doctor has recommended. You may experience withdrawal symptoms similar to the possible side effects of Breakyl when you stop treatment with Breakyl. If you have withdrawal symptoms or are concerned about pain relief, consult your doctor, who will assess whether you need any medication to reduce or suppress withdrawal symptoms.

If you have any other questions about using this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, Breakyl can cause side effects, although not everyone gets them.

The most serious side effects are shallow breathing, low blood pressure, and shock. If you feel very sleepy or your breathing is slow and/or shallow, you or your caregiver should contact your doctor and call emergency services immediately. If the buccal film is still attached to your cheek, remove it as soon as possible, or even parts of it.

The most common adverse reactions observed have been nausea, drowsiness, and dizziness.

Since patients using Breakyl also take regular opioid therapies such as morphine, oxycodone, or transdermal fentanyl for their persistent pain, side effects caused by any of the treatments may occur. Therefore, it is not possible to clearly distinguish the effects of Breakyl from those of other opioids.

Adverse events considered to be at least possibly related to treatment were:

Frequent(may affect up to 1 in 10 people):

  • Excessive fatigue/drowsiness, dizziness, headache, sedation.
  • Vision problems (e.g., blurred or double vision).
