Full Consumer Medicine Information (CMI)
This leaflet provides important information about taking FYNOD. You should also speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you would like further information
or if you have any concerns or questions about taking FYNOD.
Where to find information in this leaflet:
1. Why am I taking FYNOD?
FYNOD contains the active ingredient fingolimod. FYNOD belongs to a group of medicines known as sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1-P) receptor
modulators.
FYNOD is used to treat adults, children and adolescents (10 years of age and above)
with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS).
FYNOD can alter the way the body's immune system works and slows the progression of
physical disability and decreases the number of flare-ups (relapses) in patients with
relapsing MS.
MS is a long-term condition that affects the central nervous system (CNS), particularly
how the brain and spinal cord work. In MS, inflammation destroys the protective cover
around the nerves (called myelin) and stops the nerves from working properly.
The cause of MS is unknown, but it is thought that an abnormal response by the body's
immune system plays an important part in the process which damages the CNS.
FYNOD helps to fight against attacks on myelin by the immune system by affecting the
ability of some white blood cells to move freely within the body and by stopping the
cells that cause inflammation from reaching the brain. This reduces nerve damage caused
by MS.
FYNOD may also have a direct and beneficial effect on certain brain cells (neural
cells) involved in repairing or slowing down the damage of MS.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about how FYNOD works or why this medicine
has been prescribed for you or your child.
2. What should I know before I take FYNOD?
Warnings
Do not take FYNOD if:
you are allergic to fingolimod, or any other similar medicines (such as medicines
of the same class or with a similar structure), or any of the ingredients listed at
the end of this leaflet.
Always check the ingredients to make sure you can take this medicine. Some symptoms
of an allergic reaction may include:
shortness of breath
wheezing or difficulty breathing
swelling of the face, lips, tongue or other parts of the body
rash, itching or hives on the skin
you have had heart attack, unstable angina, stroke or warning stroke or certain types
of heart failure in the last 6 months
you have certain types of irregular or abnormal heartbeat (arrhythmia)
you are taking or have recently taken medicine for irregular heartbeat such as quinidine,
disopyramide, amiodarone or sotalol (due to a possible added effect on irregular heartbeat).
Tell your doctor if you have allergies to other medicines, foods, preservatives or
dyes. Your doctor may want to know if you are prone to allergies.
Check with your doctor if you:
have had heart problems, a stroke or warning of a stroke
Checking the health of your heart is important. If any of the following applies to
you, your doctor may decide not to use FYNOD or may refer you to a cardiologist for
further advice before commencing your first dose of FYNOD. You may also be monitored
overnight by a healthcare professional after taking your first dose of FYNOD.
irregular or abnormal heartbeat
severe heart disease
uncontrolled high blood pressure
history of stroke or other diseases related to blood vessels in the brain
severe breathing difficulties when asleep (sleep apnoea that is not treated)
a heart rhythm disturbances (called QTc prolongation or abnormal ECG heart tracing)
or the risk of these disturbances
slow heart rate or if you have a history of sudden loss of consciousness (fainting).
Tell your doctor if you have never had chickenpox or have no record of vaccination
against chickenpox.
Your doctor will test your status of the antibody against this virus and may decide
to vaccinate you (if you do not have antibodies to this virus). In this case you will
start FYNOD treatment one month after the full course of the vaccination is completed.
Children or adolescents (10 years of age and above) need to have completed their vaccination
schedule before starting treatment with FYNOD.
plan to receive a vaccine
have any other medical conditions:
a lowered immune response (due to a disease or medicines that suppress the immune
system). See Section
3. "What if I am taking other medicines?". You may get infections more easily or an infection you already have may get worse.
problems with your liver. FYNOD may affect your liver function.
have an infection as it may get worse
Infections can be serious and sometimes life-threatening. Before you start taking
FYNOD, your doctor will confirm whether you have enough white blood cells (these fight
infections) in your blood.
take medicines for any other condition
If you are not sure whether any of the above conditions apply to you, your doctor
can advise you.
Before you start treatment with FYNOD, you will have:
a blood test to check your liver function before and during treatment with FYNOD and
until two months after stopping treatment. If liver problems are detected your doctor
may decide to discontinue treatment.
a skin examination is recommended before you start and at regular intervals during
treatment. Your doctor will decide what to do if skin problems are noticed.
an eye examination before you start treatment and at regular intervals afterwards
is recommended if you have or have had one of the following conditions:
visual disturbances or other signs of swelling in the central vision area at the back
of the eye (a condition known as macular oedema)
inflammation or infection of the eye (uveitis)
diabetes
vaccination against human papilloma virus (HPV) is recommended. If you are female,
your doctor will also recommend HPV screening.
During treatment, you may be at risk of developing certain side effects. It is important
you understand these risks and how to monitor for them. See additional information
under Section
6. Are there any side effects?
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are female, a pregnancy test is recommended before starting treatment to check
if you are pregnant.
Check with your doctor if you are pregnant or intend to become pregnant.
You should avoid becoming pregnant while taking FYNOD or in the two months after you
stop taking it because FYNOD may harm your unborn baby.
If you become pregnant while taking FYNOD, tell your doctor without delay.
You and your doctor will decide what is best for you and your baby.
You should not breast-feed while you are taking FYNOD.
FYNOD can pass into breast milk and there is a risk of serious side effects for a
breast-fed baby.
Elderly
Experience with FYNOD in older people (more than 65 years old) is limited.
Children under 10 years
FYNOD has not been studied in children under 10 years of age.
3. What if I am taking other medicines?
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any other medicines, including any
medicines, vitamins or supplements that you buy without a prescription from your pharmacy,
supermarket or health food shop.
Some medicines may interfere with FYNOD and affect how it works. These include:
medicines for an irregular or abnormal heartbeat such as quinidine, procainamide,
amiodarone, or sotalol
medicines that slow down heartbeat such as atenolol (a beta-blocker); verapamil, diltiazem
or (calcium channel blockers) or ivabradine or digoxin. Your doctor may decide not
to use FYNOD or may refer you first to a cardiologist to switch to medicines that
do not slow your heart rate or to decide how you should be observed after the first
dose of FYNOD
medicines that can cause an abnormal heart rhythm called Torsades de Pointes such
as citalopram, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, methadone or erythromycin
medicines that suppress or modulate the immune system including other medicines used
to treat MS such as beta-interferon, glatiramer acetate, natalizumab, mitozantrone,
dimethyl fumarate, teriflunomide, alemtuzumab or corticosteroids due to a possible
added effect on the immune system
vaccines. If you need to receive a vaccine, seek your doctor's advice first. During
and up to 2 months after treatment with FYNOD, administration of some vaccines containing
live virus (live attenuated vaccines) may result in an infection that the vaccination
is designed to prevent, while others may not work as well.
If you have not told your doctor about any of these things, tell him/her before you
start taking this medicine.
You may need to take different amounts of your medicines or take different medicines
while you are taking FYNOD.
Your doctor and pharmacist can provide you with more information.
Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure about what medicines, vitamins
or supplements you are taking and if these affect FYNOD.
4. How do I take FYNOD?
Follow all directions given to you by your doctor or pharmacist carefully. They may differ from the information contained in this leaflet.
If you do not understand the instructions on the box, ask your doctor or pharmacist
for help.
First dose precaution
Because FYNOD may have a short-term effect on your heart rate when you take the first
dose (or when children/adolescents switch from the 0.25mg capsule to the 0.5mg capsule),
you will be required to have the health of your heart checked:
before your first dose of FYNOD
6 hours after taking your first dose of FYNOD, and
if you start FYNOD again after a break from therapy (depending how long the break
is and how long you have been receiving FYNOD treatment)
You will need to stay at the doctor's office or clinic for 6 hours after taking the
first dose of FYNOD (or after taking the first dose of 0.5 mg when your child switches
from the 0.25 mg capsule daily dose) so that your heart rate and blood pressure can
be checked each hour. Your doctor will also check and record the electrical activity
of your heart (using a test called an ECG) and check your heart rhythm.
Tell your doctor if you feel dizzy, tired or are conscious of your heartbeat.
At the end of the 6-hour observation period, you will be required to have a second
ECG.
In case of unusual ECG or slow heart rate at the end of the 6-hour observation period,
you may be observed for longer and overnight if necessary. In this case, the same
observation process that took place for your first dose of FYNOD will also apply for
your second dose.
At the beginning of treatment, FYNOD can cause the heart rate to slow down in some
patients. If your heart rate slows down after your first dose, you may feel dizzy
or tired or be consciously aware of your heartbeat. If your heart rate slows down
too much or your blood pressure drops, you may need treatment without delay. Slow
heart rate usually returns to normal within one month.
FYNOD can also cause an irregular heartbeat in some patients, especially after the
first dose. Irregular heartbeat usually returns to normal in less than one day.
How much to take
Adults
The usual dose is one capsule per day (0.5 mg of fingolimod)
Children and adolescents (10 years of age and above)
The dose depends on the body weight:
Children and adolescents who weigh 40 kg or less: one 0.25 mg capsule per day*.
Children and adolescents with a body weight above 40 kg: one 0.5 mg capsule per day.
Children and adolescents who started on one 0.25 mg capsule per day and reach a stable
body weight above 40 kg will be instructed by their doctor to switch to one 0.5 mg
capsule per day. In this case, it is recommended to repeat the first dose observation
period.
*0.25 mg strength is available in other brands.
Do not exceed the recommended dose.
When to take FYNOD
FYNOD should be taken at about the same time each day.
Taking it at the same time each day will have the best effect. It will also help you
remember to take it. It does not matter if you take this medicine before or after
food.
How to take FYNOD
Swallow the FYNOD capsule with a glass of water.
FYNOD can be taken with or without food.
How long to take FYNOD
Continue taking your medicine for as long as your doctor tells you to.
Your doctor will check your progress to make sure the medicine is working and will
discuss with you how long your treatment should continue.
Do not stop taking FYNOD unless your doctor tells you to.
Your symptoms may return or become worse if you stop the treatment. Tell your doctor
if you have worsening of MS symptoms after stopping FYNOD.
FYNOD will stay in your body for up to 2 months after you stop taking it. Your white
blood cell count (lymphocyte count) may also remain low during this time and the side
effects described in this leaflet may still occur.
If you stop taking FYNOD:
for 1 day or more during the first 2 weeks of treatment, or
for more than 7 days during weeks 3 and 4 of treatment, or
for more than 2 weeks after your first month of FYNOD treatment, the initial effect
of your heart rate may occur again.
If you restart FYNOD therapy after a break, your doctor may decide to monitor your
heart rate and blood pressure every hour, to run ECGs, or to monitor you overnight.
After using FYNOD
Tell your doctor straight away, if you believe your MS is getting worse after you
have stopped treatment with FYNOD, because it could be serious
Symptoms of MS can return and may become worse compared to before or during treatment
If you forget to take FYNOD
If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the dose you missed and take your next
dose when you are meant to.
Do not take a double dose to make up for the dose you missed.
If you miss a dose during the first 2 weeks call your doctor right away.
Your doctor may decide to observe you at the time you take your next dose.
This may increase the chance of you getting an unwanted side effect.
If you are not sure what to do, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
If you have trouble remembering when to take your medicine, ask your pharmacist for
some hints.
If you take too much FYNOD
If you think that you or anyone else have taken too much FYNOD, or taken a first dose
by mistake, urgent medical attention may be needed.
You should immediately:
phone the Poisons Information Centre
(by calling 13 11 26) or
contact your doctor, or
go to the Emergency Department at your nearest hospital.
You should do this even if there are no signs of discomfort or poisoning.
Your doctor may decide to observe you with hourly heart rate and blood pressure measurements,
run ECGs, and he/she may decide to monitor you overnight.
Symptoms of an overdose may include:
swelling in hands or feet
tingling or numbness in hands or feet
muscle pain
fever
5. What should I know while taking FYNOD?
Things you should do
Avoid becoming pregnant while taking FYNOD or in the two months after you stop taking
it because FYNOD may harm your unborn baby
Talk to your doctor about the associated risk. Talk with your doctor about reliable
methods of birth control that you should use during treatment and for 2 months after
you stop treatment.
Limit your exposure to the sun and UV rays by wearing appropriate protective clothing
and regularly applying sunscreen with a high degree of UV protection.
This will help minimise your risk of developing skin cancers.
Keep all of your doctor's appointments so that your progress can be checked.
Your doctor will do regular checks to help prevent you from having side effects from
the medicine. This includes blood tests to check your liver function and regular skin
checks.
If you are about to be started on any new medicine, remind your doctor and pharmacist
that you are taking FYNOD.
Remind any doctor, dentist or pharmacist you visit that you are using FYNOD.
Call your doctor straight away if you:
become pregnant while taking this medicine.
FYNOD should not be taken if you are pregnant.
think you have an infection, fever or feel like you have the flu.
You may get infections more easily while you are taking FYNOD and for up to 2 months
after you stop taking it. Any infection that you already have may get worse. Infections
can be serious and sometimes life-threatening.
notice any changes in your vision, especially if:
the centre of your vision gets blurry or has shadows
if you develop a blind spot in the centre of your vision
if you have problems seeing colours or fine detail.
FYNOD may cause macular oedema uncommonly (swelling of a small area at the back of
the eye). When this side effect does occur, it usually happens in the first 4 months
of treatment. Your chance of developing macular oedema is higher if you have diabetes
or have had an inflammation of the eye called uveitis. It can cause some of the same
vision symptoms as an MS attack (optic neuritis).
notice any skin nodules (e.g., shiny pearly nodules), patches or open sores that do
not heal within weeks.
Skin cancers have been reported in MS patients treated with FYNOD. Symptoms may include
abnormal growth or changes of skin tissue (e.g., unusual moles) which may change in
colour, shape or size over time. Your doctor should carry out regular skin examinations
during your treatment with FYNOD.
notice any of following symptoms or disease while you are taking FYNOD because it
could be serious:
signs that your MS is getting worse (e.g., weakness or visual change) or if you notice
any new or unusual symptoms. These may be the symptoms of a rare brain disorder caused
by infection, called progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) or a condition
called tumefactive lesions. Your doctor may organise an MRI scan to decide if you
need to stop taking FYNOD.
if you think you have an infection; a fever; feel like you have the flu, or have a
headache accompanied by stiff neck, sensitivity to light, nausea, and/or confusion,
or seizures/fits (these may be symptoms of meningitis and/or encephalitis).
sudden onset of severe headache, confusion, seizures and vision changes which are
symptoms of a condition called posterior reversible encephalopathy (PRES).
swelling in your neck, armpits or groin, persistent tiredness, fever, night sweats,
shortness of breath, unexplained weight loss, itchy skin which are symptoms of lymphoma.
unexplained nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, tiredness, yellowing of the skin or
whites of your eyes, abnormally dark urine. These may be signs of liver injury.
Things you should not do
You should not receive certain types of vaccines (live attenuated vaccines) during
and for up to 2 months after treatment with this medicine.
Do not give this medicine to anyone else, even if their condition seems similar to
yours.
