What you need to know about
treatment with ZULRESSO
ZULRESSO® (brexanolone) is administered continuously by intravenous infusion (into the vein) over 2.5 days (60 hours). You are treated with Zulresso in a healthcare setting, a Treating Center, where you can be monitored by a healthcare provider throughout your treatment because of the risk of excessive sedation or sudden loss of consciousness.
Because of the risk of serious harm resulting from excessive sedation or sudden loss of consciousness during treatment, ZULRESSO is administered at a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS)-certified healthcare facility where you will be monitored by a healthcare provider in accordance with guidelines determined by the ZULRESSO REMS program.
While different Treating Centers may have particular rules and protocols, typically, you'll be able to receive visits from your family and see your baby. However, you will need to arrange for full-time childcare for the duration of your treatment.
Before starting treatment:
- Speak with your healthcare provider about any concerns or questions you have
- Choose someone close to you, like a partner or another loved one, and let them know how they can help during your treatment
Tell your healthcare provider if you take other antidepressants, opioids, or CNS depressants such as benzodiazepines. Keep a list of the medicines you take and show it to your healthcare provider and pharmacist when you get a new medicine. Your healthcare provider will decide if other medicines can be taken with ZULRESSO.
Please remember that your healthcare provider and the team at your Treating Center should always be your primary resources for any questions regarding your treatment.
