How long can Evrysdi be stored in the refrigerator?

The medication lasts up to 64 days after being prepared by a pharmacist. An expiration date will be indicated on the bottle of Evrysdi. It may be helpful to mark that date on your calendar. If you receive a bottle without the Discard After date written on the bottle label, contact your specialty pharmacy.

What should I do if Evrysdi has been left at room temperature?

Evrysdi can be kept at room temperature up to 104°F for a combined total of 5 days. It can be removed from, and returned to, a refrigerator. The total combined time out of refrigeration should not exceed 5 days. Any portion of Evrysdi that has been kept above 104˚F should be discarded.

If you have any questions regarding storing Evrysdi at room temperature, contact your specialty pharmacy.

How should I store Evrysdi while traveling?

If you or the person in your care will be away from home, store Evrysdi in an insulated cooler (36°F to 46°F with ice packs), but do not freeze it. Store Evrysdi upright in the original amber bottle to protect it from light. If traveling by plane, your healthcare provider may give you a letter authorizing you to fly with liquid medication. Talk to your healthcare provider about the best way to travel with Evrysdi.

How much medicine do I take every day?

Your recommended dose is based on age and weight, with a maximum recommended dose of 5 mg once daily, which is a little over a teaspoon. Your doctor determines your dose. Always take your dose exactly as prescribed. If you have questions, speak to your healthcare provider.

Can I take Evrysdi with food or mix it with liquid outside of the oral syringe?

Evrysdi should be taken after a meal. It should not be mixed directly with any food or liquid (including formula or breast milk), and should only be taken with the approved oral syringe, which has been designed to protect the solution from light.

Will the syringes that come with Evrysdi work with feeding tubes?

Yes. Each monthly shipment of Evrysdi will include syringes that will work with a variety of feeding tubes, including ENFit^®. If the specialty pharmacy does not provide the correct adapter to fit your feeding tube, they will work with you to get one that does.

What should I do if my child spits up, vomits, or doesn’t swallow the whole dose after I give the medication?

Do not give any more medication that day. Wait until the next day to give the next dose at the usual dosing time. If your child continues to spit up or vomit while taking Evrysdi, talk to your healthcare provider.

What if a dose is missed?

The missed dose should be taken as soon as possible, but no more than 6 hours after the usual dosing time. If more than 6 hours have passed, skip the missed dose altogether and take or give the next dose the following day at your regularly scheduled time.
