Benefits with Every Breath

DUPIXENT was proven to improve lung function and help prevent asthma attacks in children 6-11 years.
DUPIXENT is not a steroid but can help reduce oral steroid use.

DUPIXENT was studied in a clinical trial with 408 children 6 to 11 years old with persistent moderate-to-severe asthma.*

Better breathing in children
in as little as 2 weeks

Significantly fewer asthma
attacks

Substantial reduction in steroid bursts

*In those with high eosinophil counts (a type of white blood cell).

The annual rate of severe asthma attacks was 0.24 with DUPIXENT 200 MG vs 0.67 with placebo.

Do not stop taking your corticosteroid medicines unless instructed by your healthcare provider. This may cause other symptoms that were controlled by the corticosteroid medicine to come back.

The safety results of DUPIXENT observed in children through week 52 were similar to the safety profile from studies in adults and adolescents with moderate-to-severe asthma with the addition of parasitic (helminth) infections.
