Amikacin oral inhalation has been associated with an increased risk of respiratory adverse reactions including, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, hemoptysis, bronchospasm, and exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease that have led to hospitalizations in some cases.
Note: For dosing of amikacin injection formulation via nebulization, refer to Amikacin (Systemic) monograph.
Mycobacterium abscessus pulmonary disease (off-label use): Suspension for inhalation: One vial (590 mg) via nebulizer once daily as part of an appropriate combination regimen during the continuation phase of treatment; consult an infectious diseases specialist for specific recommendations, including duration (Ref).
Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease, refractory: Suspension for inhalation: One vial (590 mg) via nebulizer once daily as part of an appropriate combination regimen; consult an infectious diseases specialist for specific recommendations, including duration (Ref).
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (has not been studied). Dosage adjustment unlikely due to low systemic absorption.
No dosage adjustment necessary; does not undergo hepatic metabolism.
Refer to adult dosing.

Postmarketing: Hypersensitivity: Anaphylaxis, hypersensitivity reaction
Hypersensitivity to aminoglycosides
Concerns related to adverse effects :
• Anaphylaxis/hypersensitivity reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported. Carefully screen for previous hypersensitivity reactions to aminoglycosides prior to administration.
• Bronchospasm: Bronchospasm (reported as asthma, bronchial hyperreactivity, bronchospasm, dyspnea, exertional dyspnea, prolonged expiration, throat tightness, wheezing) has been reported; manage as medically appropriate.
• Hemoptysis: Hemoptysis has been reported; manage as medically appropriate.
• Hypersensitivity pneumonitis: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (reported as allergic alveolitis, pneumonitis, interstitial lung disease, allergic reaction) has been reported; manage as medically appropriate.
• Nephrotoxicity: Nephrotoxicity has been reported with aminoglycosides; use with caution in patients with known or suspected renal dysfunction.
• Neuromuscular blockade: May cause neuromuscular blockade and aggravate muscle weakness. Neuromuscular blockade is reversible but may require treatment (eg, administration of calcium salts, mechanical respiratory assistance).
• Ototoxicity: Ototoxicity (including deafness, dizziness, presyncope, tinnitus, vertigo) has been reported. Use with caution in patients with known or suspected auditory or vestibular dysfunction; if ototoxicity occurs, manage as medically appropriate.
Disease-related concerns :
• Neuromuscular disorders: Use with caution in patients with neuromuscular disorders, including myasthenia gravis; patients with neuromuscular disorders were not studied.
• Pulmonary disease: Exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease (reported as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, infective exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, infective exacerbation of bronchiectasis) has been reported; manage as medically appropriate.
Special populations:
• Patients with genomic variants in MT-RNR1: Carriers of certain variants in the MT-RNR1 gene (eg, m.1555A>G) may be at increased risk for aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity, including potentially significant hearing loss that may be irreversible, even when serum levels are within the normal range.

Inhalation: To be inhaled using the Lamira Nebulizer System over 14 to 20 minutes. Vial should be at room temperature prior to use (if refrigerated, remove at least 45 minutes before use). Shake vial for at least 10 to 15 seconds (until contents appear uniform and well mixed) prior to opening. Refer to the manufacturer's labeling for detailed administration instructions using the nebulizer system. Patients instructed to also use a bronchodilator should administer the bronchodilator prior to using the nebulizer.
An FDA-approved patient medication guide, which is available with the product information and as follows, must be dispensed with this medication:

Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease, refractory: Treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) pulmonary disease in adults who have limited or no alternative treatment options, as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen in patients who do not achieve negative sputum cultures after a minimum of 6 consecutive months of a multidrug background regimen therapy.
Limitation of use: Amikacin oral inhalation has only been studied in patients with refractory MAC lung disease defined as patients who did not achieve negative sputum cultures after a minimum of 6 consecutive months of a multidrug background regimen therapy. The use of amikacin is not recommended for patients with non-refractory MAC lung disease.

Loop Diuretics: May enhance the nephrotoxic effect of Amikacin Liposome (Oral Inhalation). Loop Diuretics may enhance the ototoxic effect of Amikacin Liposome (Oral Inhalation). Risk C: Monitor therapy
Mannitol (Systemic): Amikacin Liposome (Oral Inhalation) may enhance the nephrotoxic effect of Mannitol (Systemic). Risk X: Avoid combination
Aminoglycosides may cause fetal harm if administered during pregnancy. Systemic absorption of amikacin following oral inhalation is expected to be low compared to intravenous administration; however, systemic exposure was associated with total irreversible bilateral congenital deafness in children whose mothers received a different aminoglycoside during pregnancy.
Refer to the Amikacin (Systemic) monograph for details.
It is not known if amikacin is present in breast milk following oral inhalation.
Amikacin is present in breast milk following injection (Matsuda 1984). Systemic absorption following oral inhalation is expected to be low compared to IV administration. According to the manufacturer, the decision to continue or discontinue breastfeeding during therapy should take into account the risk of infant exposure, the benefits of breastfeeding to the infant, and benefits of treatment to the mother. Inhaled antibiotics used for the treatment of cystic fibrosis are considered compatible with breastfeeding (Panchaud 2016).
Also refer to the Amikacin (Systemic) monograph.
