Evrysdi presents: Instructions for an SMA Treatment in Tablet Form. If you are starting treatment with Evrysdi, welcome. You're part of a large community of people who together with our doctors have chosen the only oral, non-invasive treatment option for SMA. Before we get started, I would like to review some Important Safety Information with you. 

Now that we've got that covered, let's get started. Evrysdi comes in liquid and five milligram tablet form. They are both strawberry flavored. This video covers the steps involved for taking the tablet only. Evrysdi is delivered directly to your door each month. A specialty pharmacy will work with you to schedule a delivery. The package you receive includes a bottle that holds a 30-day supply of your medication. Check the expiration date and the product for damage before use. Do not use the treatment if it is expired or damaged. When taking the tablet, you just need to take one per day to help treat SMA. Evrysdi tablets can be stored at room temperature, so you have more freedom how and where you take them. It's important to keep the tablets in the bottle you receive them in. Evrysdi tablets are sensitive to moisture and the bottle they arrive in is designed to keep them dry. Remember to tightly secure the cab after each use. There are two ways to take Evrysdi tablets, let's get into those steps. You can swallow the tablet whole with water, or as a liquid, by mixing it in one teaspoon of room temperature bottled water. The tablet mixture cannot be taken using a gastrostomy or nasogastric tube. Press down and twist the cap to open the bottle. Once open, remove one tablet from the bottle. If swallowing the tablet whole, use water to take your dose. Do not take Evrysdi with any other liquid besides water. H2O is the way to go. If mixing the tablet, the liquid you should be using is room temperature bottled water. Tap water has different chlorine levels than bottled water and is not recommended. You'll also need a small, clean empty cup to get started. Pour one teaspoon or five milliliters of room temperature bottled water into your cup. Next, add a tablet and gently swirl the mixture in the cup. This can take up to three minutes. It's normal for the solution to look a little cloudy. Remember to keep the Evrysdi mixture out of sunlight. Drink the mixture right away, if it sits longer than 10 minutes, you'll need to throw it out and start over. To make sure you're also taking any leftover medication in the cup, add one more splash of room temp bottled water, at least one tablespoon or 15 milliliters. Gently swirl the cup once more and drink the remaining mixture right away. Now you're ready to make Evrysdi part of your routine, just like me. My name is Jim. I'm a father and professional voice-over artist and I've been taking Evrysdi since 2020. Now just a few important notes before we say goodbye. These are important people, focus up.

Your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse will show you how to prepare and take Evrysdi tablets. Always take Evrysdi tablets exactly as your healthcare provider tells you. Do not take or give this medicine until you have been shown how to properly prepare and take or give Evrysdi. Do not take an extra dose if you vomit at any time after taking Evrysdi. Store Evrysdi tablets at room temperature, 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). Do not take or give Evrysdi if it has been exposed to temperatures above 86°F (30°C). Keep the bottle tightly closed in order to protect from moisture. Keep Evrysdi and all medications out of the sight and reach of children. Do not get the Evrysdi tablet mixture on your skin or in your eyes. If the Evrysdi tablet mixture gets on your skin, wash the area with soap and water. If the mixture gets in your eyes rinse your eyes with water. If you spill the Evrysdi tablet mixture, dry the area with a dry paper towel and then clean with soap and water. Throw away the paper towel in the trash and wash your hands with soap and water. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible, but no more than six hours after the usual dosing time. If six hours have passed, just wait until the regularly scheduled time the next day. If you have questions about proper disposal, please visit the FDA drug disposal website.
