Instructions of Filgotinib

1.Main components

Filgotinib

2.Adapt to the population

Adult patients with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have insufficient response or intolerance.

3.Medication for special populations

3.1Pregnant women and lactation period

At present, there is insufficient data to confirm the safety of non gonotinib for pregnant and lactating women, therefore it is not recommended for use in these populations. If pregnant women become pregnant during medication, they should immediately stop using it and consult a doctor.

3.2Geriatric Use

For elderly patients, especially those over 75 years old or with kidney problems, doctors may recommend taking a daily dose of 100mg of non gonotinib instead of the usual 200mg dose. This is because the liver and kidney function of elderly patients may decrease, and they need to be used with extra caution.

3.3Pediatric Use

The safety and efficacy of fego tinib have not been determined in patients under the age of 18, therefore its use in children and adolescents should be avoided.

4.Drug overdose

Drug overdose is not yet clear.

5.Drug storage

It should be stored at -20 ° C.
