Help treat recurrent attacks of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP)
Indication:
PrPANHEMATIN® (hemin for injection) is indicated for the amelioration of recurrent attacks of acute intermittent porphyria temporally related to the menstrual cycle in susceptible women, after initial carbohydrate therapy is known or suspected to be inadequate.
Limitations of use:
Before administering PANHEMATIN, consider an appropriate period of carbohydrate loading (i.e., 400 g glucose/day for 1 to 2 days).
Attacks of porphyria may progress to a point where irreversible neuronal damage has occurred. PANHEMATIN therapy is intended to prevent an attack from reaching the critical stage of neuronal degeneration. PANHEMATIN is not effective in repairing neuronal damage.
Clinical use:
Pediatrics (<16 years of age): Based on the data submitted and reviewed by Health Canada, the safety and efficacy of PANHEMATIN in pediatric patients has not been established; therefore, Health Canada has not authorized an indication for pediatric use.
Geriatrics (≥65 years of age): Clinical data for subjects aged 65 and over was not sufficient to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. 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.
Contraindications:
PANHEMATIN is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to this drug or to any ingredient in the formulation, including any non-medicinal ingredient, or component of the container.
Relevant warnings and precautions:
Risk of phlebitis.
Risk of transmitting infectious agents (e.g., viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease (vCJD) agent, and theoretically the Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease (CJD) agent).
Transient, mild anticoagulant effects may occur. Avoid concurrent anticoagulant therapy.
Elevated iron and serum ferritin may occur. Monitor iron and serum ferritin in patients receiving multiple administrations of PANHEMATIN.
Reversible renal shutdown has been observed in a case where an excessive hematin dose (12.2 mg/kg) was administered in a single infusion. Recommended dosage guidelines should be strictly followed.
Should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed. Avoid administering hematin in severe pre-eclampsia.
The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for PANHEMATIN and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from PANHEMATIN or from the underlying maternal condition.
Avoid CYP inducing drugs (such as estrogens, barbituric acid derivatives, and steroid metabolites) while on PANHEMATIN therapy.

Pursuant to the legislation applicable to the protection of personal data (“Privacy Legislation”) including EU Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”) as well as the supervisory authorities’ measures on cookies, Recordati Industria Chimica e Farmaceutica S.p.A provides users (hereinafter the “Users” or in the singular, the “User”) with the following information regarding cookies installed on the following domain [www.panhematin.ca] (the “Website”).
Who is the Data Controller?
The Data Controller is Recordati Industria Chimica e Farmaceutica S.p.A. parent company of the Recordati Group, with registered office in Milano, Via M. Civitali n. 1, enrolled in the Register of Companies of Milan under number 00748210150 (hereinafter, the “Company”, the “Data Controller” or “Recordati“).
The Data Protection Officer of the Recordati Group (hereinafter, the “DPO”) can be contacted at the following e-mail address: groupDPO@recordati.com.
What are cookies?
Cookies are text files and numbers that are installed while browsing on a website, in the memory of the device (PC, smartphone or tablet) connected to the Internet through the browser application installed therein.
Cookies, which are usually present in substantial numbers in users’ browsers and sometimes also with wide temporal persistence, are used for several purposes such as, by way of example and not limited to, for IT authentication, for monitoring of browsing sessions, for storage of information on specific user configurations in accessing a given server, etc.
The Privacy Legislation identifies the following macro-categories of cookies:
“Technical cookies”, which are used to carry out browsing or to provide a service requested by the user. Such cookies are not used for further purposes and are usually installed directly by the website’s owner or manager. In addition, these cookies can be grouped into:
browsing or session cookies, which guarantee the normal browsing and use of a website (allowing, for example, to purchase items online or authenticate to access certain sections);
functional cookies, which allow users to navigate as a function of certain pre-determined criteria (such as, for example, language, products selected for purchase) in order to improve the quality of service provided to the same. For the installation of technical cookies, the users’ prior consent is not necessary;
“Analytics cookies”, which are used to monitor the use of a website by users for optimization purposes (number of visitors, pages browsed, time spent on a website, etc.).
In order for analytics cookies to be equated to technical cookies, it is necessary that they are realized and used directly by the first party website (without the intervention of third parties) to improve its usability and it is necessary to prevent the possibility that, through their use, direct identification of data subjects is achieved, which is tantamount to preventing the use of analytics cookies that, due to their characteristics, can work as direct, unique identifiers of users.
In order to consider analytics cookies, including third-party cookies, as technical cookies, it is necessary that: (i) analytics cookies are only used for the production of aggregated statistics and in relation to a single website or a single mobile application, so as not to allow tracking an individual’s navigation across different applications or websites; (ii) at least, for third-party analytics cookies, the fourth component of the IP address is masked out; (iii) the third parties refrain from match such analytics cookies with any other information (such as customer records or statistics concerning visits to other websites) or from forwarding them to third parties.
For the installation of analytics cookies which can be assimilated to technical cookies, the users’ prior consent is not required; where, however, analytics cookies cannot be assimilated to technical cookies, the users’ consent to their installation is then required;
“Profiling cookie”, which are intended to create user’s profiles and are used to send targeted advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the user in the context of his/her web-browsing activities. Due to the particular invasiveness that these cookies may have on the private sphere of the users, the Privacy Legislation provides that user shall be adequately informed about the use of such cookies and express his/her valid consent for the installation of the same. For the installation of profiling cookies, the users’ prior consent is therefore necessary, which should be provided after the user has been informed in a simplified manner;
Moreover, cookies may be installed directly by the website visited by the user (s.c. “first-party cookies”), or they may be installed by other websites (s.c. “third-party cookies”).
Lastly, under the temporal prospective, cookies can be divided into: (i) “persistent cookies”, i.e. cookies that are permanently stored on the user’s device until a predetermined expiry date (minutes, days, years); (ii) “session cookies”, i.e. cookies that are automatically deleted when closing the browser.
What cookies does the Website use and for what purposes?
When the User connects to the Website, the following cookies may be installed on the User’s device:
(i) Technical cookies
These cookies are necessary in order to allow the operation of the Website and cannot be deactivated within the Company's systems. They are usually set only in response to actions taken by the User that constitute a service request, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. It is possible to set the browser so that it blocks these cookies but, as a result, some parts of the Website will not work properly. These cookies do not store any personal data.
