6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

In two clinical trials, MVOR-1 and MVOR-2, a total of 638 adult subjects were analyzed under the safety population with 243 subjects in EMROSI group, 237 subjects in doxycycline (40 mg) group and 158 subjects in placebo group [see Clinical Studies (14) ].

The most common adverse reaction reported by ≥1% of subjects treated with EMROSI and more frequently than in subjects receiving placebo was dyspepsia, which was reported in 2% of subjects treated with EMROSI and none of the subjects receiving placebo.

6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been reported with post-approval use of minocycline hydrochloride in a variety of indications.

Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

Skin and hypersensitivity reactions: anaphylaxis, angioedema, DRESS syndrome, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet’s syndrome), fixed drug eruptions, balanitis, anaphylactoid purpura photosensitivity, pigmentation of skin and mucous membranes.
