DUPIXENT DOSING FOR NASAL POLYPS

An Innovative Treatment

DUPIXENT is a form of medicine called a biologic and is taken by injection under the skin (subcutaneous injection) every two weeks.

With one dose every two weeks, DUPIXENT works to help keep Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP) under control

What You Should Know

DUPIXENT can be given by your doctor in a clinic or doctor’s office, or self-administered at home.

If your healthcare provider decides that you or a caregiver can give DUPIXENT injections, you or your caregiver should receive training on the right way to prepare and inject DUPIXENT. In children 12 years of age and older, it's recommended DUPIXENT be administered by or under supervision of an adult.

Before using DUPIXENT, tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including if you:

  • have eye problems.
  • have a parasitic (helminth) infection.
  • are scheduled to receive any vaccinations. You should not receive a “live vaccine” right before and during treatment with DUPIXENT.
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known whether DUPIXENT will harm your unborn baby.
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known whether DUPIXENT passes into your breast milk.

Tell your healthcare provider about all of the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Especially tell your healthcare provider if you are taking oral, topical, or inhaled corticosteroid medicines or if you have CRSwNP and asthma and use an asthma medicine. Do not change or stop your other medicines, including corticosteroid medicine or other asthma medicine, without talking to your healthcare provider. This may cause other symptoms that were controlled by those medicines to come back.

DUPIXENT can be injected into the thigh, stomach (except for the 2 inches around the belly button), or outer area of the upper arm (if caregiver injects). A different site should be chosen each time DUPIXENT is injected.

  • Use DUPIXENT exactly as prescribed. Your healthcare provider will tell you how much DUPIXENT to inject and how often to inject it.
  • Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and read the Instructions for Use for full details on preparation, administration, and disposal of your injection.
