What is the most important information I should know about VANFLYTA?
VANFLYTA may cause serious side effects, including:
  • Changes in the electrical activity of your heart called QT prolongation, torsades de pointes, and your heart stopping (cardiac arrest). QT prolongation can cause irregular heartbeats that can be life-threatening or lead to death. Your healthcare provider will check the electrical activity of your heart with a test called an electrocardiogram (ECG) and will also do blood tests to check your potassium and magnesium levels before and during treatment with VANFLYTA. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have an irregular heartbeat or feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint, or have diarrhea or vomiting.
VANFLYTA is available only through a restricted program called the VANFLYTA Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) due to the risk of QT prolongation, torsades de pointes, and cardiac arrest.
You will receive a VANFLYTA Patient Wallet Card from your healthcare provider. Carry the VANFLYTA Patient Wallet Card with you at all times and show it to all of your healthcare providers. The VANFLYTA Patient Wallet Card lists signs and symptoms of QT prolongation and torsades de pointes.
Get medical help right away if you develop any of the signs and symptoms listed on the VANFLYTA Patient Wallet Card. You may need to be treated in a hospital.
