Proper Use
Drug information provided by: Merative, Micromedex®
A nurse or other trained health professional will give you this medicine. The first loading dose is given through an IV catheter that is placed into one of your veins. It must be injected slowly, so your IV may need to stay in place for at least 60 to 90 minutes on Day 1. Another loading dose will be given as a shot under your skin, usually in the stomach, on Days 2, 8, 15, and 22. The maintenance doses will begin on Day 29 and be given every 4 weeks as a shot under your skin.
It is very important that you understand the requirements of the Piasky™ REMS program, and become familiar with the Piasky™ Medication Guide. Read and follow these instructions carefully. Ask your doctor if you have any questions. Ask your pharmacist for the medication guide if you do not have one.
If you are changing treatment from Soliris® or Ultomiris® to Piasky™, you should start receiving Piasky™ as soon as possible. Your doctor will monitor you for 30 days after you switch medicines.
