IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
JUXTAPID can cause serious side effects, including liver problems. For this reason, your doctor should do blood tests to check your liver before you start JUXTAPID, if your dose is increased, and while you take JUXTAPID. If your tests show some liver problems, your doctor may adjust your dose of JUXTAPID or stop it altogether.
You should tell your doctor if you have had liver problems, including liver problems while taking other medicines.
JUXTAPID is available only through certified pharmacies that are enrolled in the JUXTAPID REMS Program. Your doctor must be enrolled and certified in the program in order for you to be prescribed JUXTAPID.
You should not take JUXTAPID if:
-
You are pregnant
-
You are taking medications known as moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, which affect how the body breaks down JUXTAPID
-
You have moderate or severe liver problems or active liver disease, including elevated liver function tests
JUXTAPID may cause harm to your unborn baby. If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to become pregnant, do not take JUXTAPID. Do not have sex while taking JUXTAPID unless you are using effective birth control. If you become pregnant while taking JUXTAPID, stop taking JUXTAPID and call your doctor right away.
Diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, and stomach pain/discomfort are very common with JUXTAPID. Strictly following a low-fat diet may help lower the chance of having these symptoms. These side effects can also be symptoms of liver problems. Tell your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms of liver problems while taking JUXTAPID: nausea; vomiting or stomach pain that gets worse, does not go away, or changes; fever; yellowing of your eyes or skin; feeling more tired than usual; having flu-like symptoms.
JUXTAPID makes it harder for some nutrients to get into your body. Take Vitamin E and fatty acids each day while you take JUXTAPID. Ask your doctor, nurse, or dietician how to add them to your diet.
The most common side effects of JUXTAPID include diarrhea (loose stool),
nausea, vomiting, stomach cramping or pain, indigestion, and gas. Tell your doctor if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.
These are not all the possible side effects of JUXTAPID. For more information, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. JUXTAPID may affect the way other medicines work, and other medicines may affect how JUXTAPID works. You should not drink grapefruit juice while taking JUXTAPID.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
