Adbry

Tell your healthcare professional (HCP) or pharmacist that you're taking Adbry (tralokinumab) before receiving any vaccines. This is because you shouldn't receive live vaccines, because it's not known if Adbry (tralokinumab) affects your immune system and raises your risk of infection from the vaccine.

Ask your dermatologist if you still need to take any other medications for eczema when you start Adbry (tralokinumab). They might ask you to also use a topical steroid or topical calcineurin inhibitor, depending on how severe your symptoms are.

Let your dermatologist know if you become pregnant while using Adbry (tralokinumab). Adbry (tralokinumab) hasn't been well-studied in human pregnancy, so it's unclear whether you should continue this medication. Your dermatologist can talk with you about the benefits and risks of continuing Adbry (tralokinumab), as well as about other options for treating eczema during pregnancy.

Make sure you know how to give yourself the injection to avoid hurting yourself or accidentally wasting any of the medication. Carefully review the instructions for use or video. Let your dermatologist or pharmacist know if you have any questions.

Store Adbry (tralokinumab) prefilled syringes in the refrigerator in the original container away from light. Don't freeze them. When it's time for your dose, take Adbry (tralokinumab) out of the refrigerator and allow it to warm up to room temperature (takes about 30 minutes). Don't try to warm up the syringe any other way (e.g., microwave, run under hot water, leave in sunlight), because this could damage the medication.

If you're traveling and don't have access to a refrigerator, Adbry (tralokinumab) can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Don't place the medication back into a refrigerator after it's reached room temperature.

Always check to make sure the medication is clear and colorless to pale yellow before using it. If it's cloudy, discolored, has many particles (solid pieces), or the syringe cap is missing, don't use it. Contact your HCP or pharmacist to see if it's possible to get a replacement.

Inject Adbry (tralokinumab) under your skin in either your stomach (at least 2 inches away from the belly button) or thighs. Caregivers can also help inject the medication under the skin of your upper arm. Never inject the medication into the muscle, veins, or through clothes.

Each prefilled syringe contains 150 mg of Adbry (tralokinumab). This means you'll need four injections if your dose is 600 mg, or two injections if your dose is 300 mg. Inject each syringe during your dose at different sites within the same body area. For your next dose, choose different injection sites from those you used last time. Don't inject into tender, damaged, bruised, or scarred skin so you don't hurt yourself or damage the skin even more.

Throw away Adbry (tralokinumab) syringes after each use, even if you see any leftover medication inside. The medication doesn't contain any preservatives to keep germs and bacteria out once you open it.

After your injection, place your syringe in a sharps container or a heavy-duty plastic container (e.g., empty milk carton, laundry detergent bottle) to lower the risk of needle-stick injuries. Don't throw away syringes, needles, or On-Body Injectors into your trash can. Visit the FDA's website for guidance on how to throw it away safely your sharps container in your specific state.
