Use in Special Populations

Women of Childbearing Potential

Women of childbearing potential should be advised to use effective contraceptive measures during treatment with upadacitinib and for 4 weeks after the last dose. Pediatric female patients and/or their parents/caregivers should be informed to contact the treating physician if menarche occurs during upadacitinib treatment.

Pregnancy

Data on the use of upadacitinib in pregnant women are limited or lacking.Upadacitinib is contraindicated during pregnancy.If a patient becomes pregnant while receiving upadacitinib, she should be informed of the potential risks of the product to the fetus.

Lactation

It is unknown whether upadacitinib or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. Available animal pharmacodynamic/toxicological data indicate that upadacitinib is secreted in milk.Risks to neonates/infants cannot be excluded.Upadacitinib should not be used during lactation. When deciding whether to discontinue breastfeeding or upadacitinib treatment, the benefits of breastfeeding for the child and the benefits of the treatment for the mother should be considered.

Individuals of Reproductive Potential

The effect of upadacitinib on human fertility has not been evaluated. Animal studies have not indicated any impact on fertility.

Pediatric Population

The safety and efficacy of upadacitinib in pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis under 12 years of age have not been established, and no data are available.No clinical exposure data are available for adolescents with a body weight of <40 kg.The safety and efficacy of upadacitinib in pediatric and adolescent patients aged 0 to <18 years with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis have not been established, and no data are available.

Geriatric Population

For atopic dermatitis, doses higher than 15 mg once daily are not recommended for patients aged 65 years and older. Based on limited data in patients with atopic dermatitis aged 65 years and older, the overall adverse reaction rate with upadacitinib 30 mg is higher than that with upadacitinib 15 mg.Experience with the use of this product in patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease aged 65 years and older is limited, and current clinical trial data are insufficient to determine whether treatment responses in geriatric patients differ from those in younger patients. Use should be undertaken only after careful evaluation, and doses higher than 15 mg once daily for maintenance treatment are not recommended for patients aged 65 years and older.Data on the use of this product in patients aged 75 years and older are limited.

Questions

How quickly does Rinvoq work +

You may feel the effects of Rinvoq oral tablet after one or two weeks, but most people with rheumatoid arthritis who respond have significant improvement in about 3 months. The results have lasted for up to 5 years for some people. 


What is Rinvoq prescribed for +

Rinvoq is available as an extended-release oral tablet or as an oral solution. It is approved to treat:

Rheumatoid arthritis

Psoriatic arthritis

Atopic dermatitis (eczema)

Ulcerative colitis

Crohn's disease

Ankylosing spondylitis

Non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis

Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis

Giant cell arteritis

Rinvoq is an oral drug classified as a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor. It is not a biologic. JAK inhibitors help regulate an overactive immune system and interfere with signals in the body that are thought to cause inflammation.

Can I drink grapefruit juice with Rinvoq +

No, you should avoid foods or drinks that contain grapefruit while you are being treated with Rinvoq. Consuming grapefruit or the juice may increase the risk of side effects because blood levels of Rinvoq may increase. Check the labels of foods you eat or drink to see if grapefruit is an ingredient.

Rinvoq is broken down in the body for excretion (or metabolized) by an enzyme called CYP3A4. Grapefruit is considered a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor and may interfere with the metabolism and excretion of Rinvoq. This can increase blood levels and side effects from the drug.

What Happens if I Take/Give Too Much Rinvoq/Rinvoq LQ +

If you take too much Rinvoq/Rinvoq LQ, call your healthcare provider or Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222, or go to the nearest hospital emergency room right away.
