branded AUBAGIO

Before taking branded AUBAGIO, there are tests your healthcare provider will need to run:

  • Blood tests to check your liver
  • A TB (tuberculosis) skin test or blood test
  • Some women may need a pregnancy test
  • A blood pressure check
  • A complete blood count

Once on branded AUBAGIO, you can expect some additional initial monitoring:

  • Blood tests to monitor liver enzyme levels
  • Periodic blood pressure checks

As with many other medications, AUBAGIO is processed by the liver. During the first 6 months of treatment, your healthcare provider will perform a monthly blood test to ensure that your treatment isn’t interfering with normal liver function.

After receiving your prescription, your journey to branded AUBAGIO has just a few steps

1.

You have been prescribed branded AUBAGIO
When you and your healthcare provider decide that AUBAGIO is the right treatment for you, they will submit the MS One to One Start Form. It acts as your prescription for branded AUBAGIO and allows you to enroll in MS One to One Support Services.

2.

MS One to One welcomes you
A few days after the Start Form is submitted, you’ll receive a very important call from MS One to One to confirm your details, go over important branded AUBAGO information, answer questions, and review available financial support.

Please be sure to take this call.

3.

Your insurance is verified for approval
At this time, MS One to One will verify that your AUBAGIO treatment is approved by your insurance. They can also tell you if you’re eligible for financial assistance to help ensure that cost is never a barrier to taking AUBAGIO.

4.

Specialty pharmacy address verification call
Next, you’ll receive an important phone call from your specialty pharmacy to arrange your branded AUBAGIO delivery. If you do not speak with your specialty pharmacy, delivery cannot occur.

Again, please be sure to take this call.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

DO NOT TAKE AUBAGIO IF YOU:

  • Have severe liver problems. AUBAGIO may cause serious liver problems, including liver failure that can be life-threatening and may require a liver transplant. Your risk may be higher if you already have liver problems or take other medicines that affect your liver. Your healthcare provider should do blood tests to check your liver within 6 months before you start AUBAGIO and monthly for 6 months after starting AUBAGIO. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you develop any of these symptoms of liver problems: nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, tiredness, yellowing of your skin or whites of your eyes, or dark urine.
  • Are pregnant. AUBAGIO may harm an unborn baby. You should have a pregnancy test before starting AUBAGIO. After stopping AUBAGIO, continue to use effective birth control until you have made sure your blood levels of AUBAGIO are lowered. If you become pregnant while taking AUBAGIO or within 2 years after stopping, tell your healthcare provider right away and enroll in the AUBAGIO Pregnancy Registry at 1-800-745-4447, option 2.
  • Are of childbearing potential and not using effective birth control.

    It is not known if AUBAGIO passes into breast milk. Your healthcare provider can help you decide if you should take AUBAGIO or breastfeed — you should not do both at the same time.

    If you are a man whose partner plans to become pregnant, you should stop taking AUBAGIO and talk with your healthcare provider about reducing the levels of AUBAGIO in your blood. If your partner does not plan to become pregnant, use effective birth control while taking AUBAGIO.

  • Have had an allergic reaction to AUBAGIO or a medicine called leflunomide.
  • Take a medicine called leflunomide for rheumatoid arthritis.

AUBAGIO may stay in your blood for up to 2 years after you stop taking it. Your healthcare provider can prescribe a medicine that can remove AUBAGIO from your blood quickly.

Before taking AUBAGIO, talk with your healthcare provider if you have: liver or kidney problems; a fever or infection, or if you are unable to fight infections; numbness or tingling in your hands or feet that is different from your MS symptoms; diabetes; serious skin problems when taking other medicines; breathing problems; or high blood pressure. Your healthcare provider will check your blood cell count and TB test before you start AUBAGIO. Talk with your healthcare provider if you take or are planning to take other medicines (especially medicines for treating cancer or controlling your immune system), over-the-counter medicines, vitamins or herbal supplements.

AUBAGIO may cause serious side effects. Tell your doctor if you have any of the following:

  • decreases in white blood cell count — this may cause you to have more infections. Symptoms include fever, tiredness, body aches, chills, nausea, or vomiting. Patients with low white blood cell count should not receive certain vaccinations during AUBAGIO treatment and 6 months after.
  • allergic reactions such as difficulty breathing, itching, or swelling on any part of your body including lips, eyes, throat, or tongue. Stop taking AUBAGIO and call your doctor right away.
  • serious skin reactions that may lead to death. Stop taking AUBAGIO if you have rash or redness and peeling, mouth sores or blisters.
  • other allergic reactions that may affect different parts of the body. If you have a fever or rash in combination with severe muscle pain, swollen lymph glands, swelling of your face, unusual bruising or bleeding, weakness or tiredness, or yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes, stop taking AUBAGIO and call your doctor right away.
  • numbness or tingling in your hands or feet that is different from your MS symptoms
  • high blood pressure
  • breathing problems (new or worsening) — these may be serious and lead to death

The most common side effects when taking AUBAGIO include: headache; diarrhea; nausea; hair thinning or loss; and abnormal liver test results. These are not all the side effects of AUBAGIO. Tell your healthcare provider about any side effect that bothers you.
