Pharmacist tips for Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a)

pharmacist
  • Mark your calendar with your appointments to see your provider and get any blood work done. Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can potentially cause a lot of side effects, so it's important to receive regular follow-up to see how you're responding to the medication and if you're having side effects.

    • Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) commonly causes flu-like symptoms, such as tiredness, weakness, fever, chills, muscle aches, joint pain, and headaches. It's best to take Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in the evening to help lower your risk of getting these symptoms.

      • If you do develop flu-like symptoms, make sure to stay hydrated and ask your provider what over-the-counter cold and flu medications might be appropriate for you.

        • Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can make you dizzy, confused, or tired. Don't do anything that requires concentration until you know how this medication affects you.

          • Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) because it can worsen side effects (e.g., sleepiness, dizziness). In addition, doing so can also worsen liver injury.

            • Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) is injected weekly. You should inject Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) on the same day and around the same time each week.

              • If you miss your dose of Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) by less than 2 days, give yourself the medication as soon as you remember. Then, take the next dose on the day you normally take it. But if it has been more than 2 days since your missed dose, contact your provider.

                • You must avoid Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) if you or your partner is pregnant because it can cause severe harm to an unborn baby. Talk to your provider about family planning before starting Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) with or without ribavirin.

                  More tips for how to inject Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) under the skin at home:

                  • Make sure you know how to give yourself Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) to avoid accidentally hurting yourself or wasting the medication. Read the instructions for use for either the vial or prefilled syringe and contact your provider or pharmacist if you have any questions on how to use this medication.

                    • Store Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) in the refrigerator and keep in the original container to protect it from light.

                      • When you're ready to give yourself the medication, take it out of the refrigerator. If you're using the vial, warm it up by gently rolling it in your hands for about 1 minute. If you're using the prefilled syringe, lay it on a flat surface and wait a few minutes for it to warm up and for the moisture on the outside of the syringe to disappear. Don't shake the medication or try to warm it up any other way.

                        • Always check the medication solution to make sure it's clear and colorless to slightly yellowish before using it. If it's cloudy or has particles, don't use it. Contact your provider or pharmacist about giving you a replacement.

                          • Use a different place in your thigh or stomach each time you give yourself the medication. This will help with preventing bruising or irritation on your skin.

                            • After giving yourself the medication, throw away the medication and syringe with needle by placing them in a sharps container or something made of heavy-duty plastic (e.g., empty milk carton, laundry detergent bottle). This lowers the risk of needlestick injuries. Don't throw them away in the trash. Visit the FDA's website to learn more about following your state regulations to dispose of your sharps safely.

                              Frequently asked questions about Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a)

                              Is Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) chemotherapy?
                              No, Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) isn't chemotherapy. Rather, it's an interferon alpha. Chemotherapies are medications typically used to treat cancer; they work by killing fast-growing cells, such as cancer cells. Interferons are similar to immune proteins that your body makes and they work by helping you fight off foreign attackers, like viruses. While Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) isn't FDA-approved for cancer, other interferons are used in cancer treatment. Talk with your provider if you've more questions about interferon therapy.
                              Is Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) an immunosuppressant?
                              No, Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) isn't an immunosuppressant. Immunosuppressants lower the activity of your immune system, but Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) does the opposite. It raises the activity of immune proteins in your body to help fight off hepatitis B and C viruses.
                              Does Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) cure hepatitis B or hepatitis C?
                              Research shows Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can cure hepatitis C. But studies show that Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can only functionally cure hepatitis b, meaning it keeps the virus inactive so it's less likely to cause harm. Keep in mind everyone responds differently to medications. Your provider will monitor you by measuring the amount of the virus in your body to see how well you're responding to Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a).
                              How do you inject Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a)?
                              Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) is given as an injection under the skin, either into your thigh or stomach. Never inject it into your muscle or vein. Ask your provider or pharmacist if you're not sure how to correctly administer Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a).

                              risk-warning

                              Potential harm or death to your unborn baby

                              • Risk factors: Currently pregnant | Women of childbearing age | Men taking ribavirin (Rebetol) who have female partners of childbearing age

                                Animal studies have shown that Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can cause harm to unborn babies and has potential to cause an abortion or miscarriage. Additionally, ribavirin (Rebetol), a medication commonly used together with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a), must be avoided in pregnant women and in men whose partners are pregnant because it can cause harm to an unborn baby, including death. If using Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin (Rebetol) together, women of childbearing age, including those who are partners of men who take these medications, must have a negative pregnancy test before starting treatment. They must also complete monthly pregnancy tests and use two forms of birth control during treatment and for at least 6 months after stopping ribavirin (Rebetol). If you or your female partner becomes pregnant while taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) and ribavirin (Rebetol) or within 6 months after you finish treatment, let your provider know right away. It's also encouraged that you contact the Ribavirin Pregnancy Registry, which will monitor the health of you and your baby, by calling 1-800-593-2214.

                                Talk to your provider about family planning before starting Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) with or without ribavirin (Rebetol).

                                  Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can cause serious, life-threatening mental health problems. Symptoms include thoughts of harming yourself or others, depression, aggressive behavior, and seeing things that aren't real. This can happen to anyone taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a), but the risk is higher if you have a history of depression. Let your provider know if you or your loved ones notice a change in your mood or behavior, or if you have thoughts of hurting yourself while you're taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a). Depending on how severe your symptoms are, your provider might have you stop taking the medication.

                                          Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can cause serious liver problems that can lead to liver failure or death. Your risk might be higher if you're also taking certain HIV NRTIs (e.g., abacavir (Ziagen), zidovudine, lamivudine (Epivir), etc.). You might need to get regular blood tests done to make sure your liver is working properly. Seek medical attention right away if you notice swelling of your stomach, yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes, stool changes (black, tarry, or bloody stools), coughing or vomiting up blood, confusion, slurred speech, mood swings, or changes in personality.

                                              Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can affect the way your cells work, which can lead to low blood cell counts. This can raise your risk of serious infections, bleeding, and anemia (low red blood cells). Your risk is higher if you have HIV, or if you're taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) with ribavirin (Rebetol) and azathioprine (Imuran). You'll need to have lab tests done before and during treatment with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) so your provider can make sure your blood cell counts are in the normal range. If your blood counts drop too low, you'll likely need to stop taking Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a). If you develop any signs of infection (e.g., fever, tiredness, chills, cough, trouble breathing) or signs of bleeding (pale skin, fast heart rate, lightheadedness, blood in your urine or stool), contact your provider right away.

                                                Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a) can cause or worsen breathing and lung problems, such as lung infections (pneumonia) or high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension). In severe cases, lung problems can lead to death. Let your provider know if you have shortness of breath or breathing problems. Your provider can order a chest X-ray to check on your lung health.
