`
`IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
`TECFIDERA (dimethyl fumarate) is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to dimethyl fumarate or any of the excipients of
`®
`TECFIDERA. TECFIDERA can cause anaphylaxis and angioedema after the rst dose or at any time during treatment. Patients experiencing
`signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis and angioedema (which have included dif culty breathing, urticaria, and swelling of the throat and tongue)
`should discontinue TECFIDERA and seek immediate medical care.
`
`Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) has occurred in patients with MS treated with TECFIDERA. PML is an opportunistic viral
`infection of the brain caused by the JC virus (JCV) that typically only occurs in patients who are immunocompromised, and that usually leads to
`death or severe disability. A fatal case of PML occurred in a patient who received TECFIDERA in a clinical trial. PML has also occurred in the
`postmarketing setting in the presence of lymphopenia (<0.8x10 /L) persisting for more than 6 months. While the role of lymphopenia in these
`9
`cases is uncertain, the majority of cases occurred in patients with lymphocyte counts <0.5x10 /L. The symptoms associated with PML are
`9
`diverse, progress over days to weeks, and include progressive weakness on one side of the body or clumsiness of limbs, disturbance of vision,
`and changes in thinking, memory, and orientation leading to confusion and personality changes. At the rst sign or symptom suggestive of
`PML, withhold TECFIDERA and perform an appropriate diagnostic evaluation. MRI ndings may be apparent before clinical signs or symptoms.
`
`TECFIDERA may decrease lymphocyte counts; in clinical trials there was a mean decrease of ~30% in lymphocyte counts during the rst year
`which then remained stable. Four weeks after stopping TECFIDERA, mean lymphocyte counts increased but not to baseline. Six percent of
`TECFIDERA patients and <1% of placebo patients had lymphocyte counts <0.5x10 /L. TECFIDERA has not been studied in patients with pre-
`9
`existing low lymphocyte counts.
`
`There was no increased incidence of serious infections observed in patients with lymphocyte counts <0.8x10 /L or ≤0.5x10 /L in controlled
`9
`9
`trials, although one patient in an extension study developed PML in the setting of prolonged lymphopenia (lymphocyte counts predominantly
`<0.5x10 /L for 3.5 years). In controlled and uncontrolled clinical trials, 2% of patients experienced lymphocyte counts <0.5x10 /L for at least six
`9
`9
`months. In these patients, the majority of lymphocyte counts remained <0.5x10 /L with continued therapy. A complete blood count including
`9
`lymphocyte count should be obtained before initiating treatment, 6 months after starting, every 6 to 12 months thereafter and as clinically
`indicated. Consider treatment interruption if lymphocyte counts <0.5x10 /L persist for more than six months and follow lymphocyte counts
`9
`until lymphopenia is resolved. Consider withholding treatment in patients with serious infections until resolved. Decisions about whether or not
`to restart TECFIDERA should be based on clinical circumstances.
`
`Clinically signi cant cases of liver injury have been reported in patients treated with TECFIDERA in the postmarketing setting. The onset has
`ranged from a few days to several months after initiation of treatment. Signs and symptoms of liver injury, including elevation of serum
`aminotransferases to greater than 5-fold the upper limit of normal and elevation of total bilirubin to greater than 2-fold the upper limit of normal
`have been observed. These abnormalities resolved upon treatment discontinuation. Some cases required hospitalization. None of the reported
`cases resulted in liver failure, liver transplant, or death. However, the combination of new serum aminotransferase elevations with increased
`levels of bilirubin caused by drug-induced hepatocellular injury is an important predictor of serious liver injury that may lead to acute liver
`failure, liver transplant, or death in some patients.
`
`Elevations of hepatic transaminases (most no greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal) were observed during controlled trials.
`
`Obtain serum aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and total bilirubin levels before initiating TECFIDERA and during treatment, as clinically
`indicated. Discontinue TECFIDERA if clinically signi cant liver injury induced by TECFIDERA is suspected.
`
`TECFIDERA may cause ushing (e.g. warmth, redness, itching, and/or burning sensation). 40% of patients taking TECFIDERA reported ushing,
`which was mostly mild to moderate in severity. Three percent of patients discontinued TECFIDERA for ushing and <1% had serious ushing
`events that led to hospitalization. Taking TECFIDERA with food may reduce ushing. Alternatively, administration of non-enteric coated aspirin
`prior to dosing may reduce the incidence or severity of ushing.

`TECFIDERA may cause gastrointestinal (GI) events (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and dyspepsia). Four percent of
`TECFIDERA patients and <1% of placebo patients discontinued due to GI events. The incidence of serious GI events was 1%. The most common
`adverse reactions associated with TECFIDERA versus placebo are ushing (40% vs 6%) and GI events: abdominal pain (18% vs 10%), diarrhea
`(14% vs 11%), nausea (12% vs 9%).
`
`A transient increase in mean eosinophil counts was seen during the rst two months.
`
`TECFIDERA should be used during pregnancy only if the potential bene t justi es the potential risk to the fetus. Encourage patients who
`become pregnant while taking TECFIDERA to enroll in the TECFIDERA pregnancy registry by calling 1-866-810-1462 or visiting
`www.TECFIDERApregnancyregistry.com.
`
`INDICATION
