IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION and INDICATION for JYNARQUE® (tolvaptan)

  • Serious liver problems. JYNARQUE can cause serious liver problems that can lead to the need for a liver transplant or can lead to death. Stop taking JYNARQUE and call your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following symptoms:
    • feeling tired
    • loss of appetite

It is important that you have a blood test before you start JYNARQUE to help reduce your risk of liver problems. Your healthcare provider will do a blood test to check your liver:

  • before you start taking JYNARQUE
  • at 2 weeks and 4 weeks after you start treatment with JYNARQUE
  • then monthly for 18 months during treatment with JYNARQUE
  • and every 3 months from then on

Because of the risk of serious liver problems, JYNARQUE is only available through a restricted distribution program called the Tolvaptan for ADPKD Shared System Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS).

Do not take JYNARQUE if you:

  • have a history of liver problems or have signs or symptoms of liver problems, excluding polycystic liver disease
  • cannot feel if you are thirsty or cannot replace fluids by drinking
  • have been told that the amount of sodium (salt) in your blood is too high or too low

  • have a history of sodium (salt) levels that are too low
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if tolvaptan will harm your unborn baby. Tell your healthcare provider if you become pregnant or think that you may be pregnant
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if tolvaptan passes into your breast milk. Do not breastfeed during your treatment with JYNARQUE. Talk to your healthcare provider about the best way to feed your baby during this time

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

  • Taking JYNARQUE with certain medicines could cause you to have too much tolvaptan in your blood. JYNARQUE should not be taken with certain medications. Your healthcare provider can tell you if it is safe to take JYNARQUE with other medicines
  • Do not start taking a new medicine without talking to your healthcare provider

JYNARQUE may cause serious side effects, including:

  • Too much sodium in your blood (hypernatremia) and loss of too much body fluid (dehydration). In some cases, dehydration can lead to extreme loss of body fluid called hypovolemia. You should drink water when you are thirsty and throughout the day and night. Stop taking JYNARQUE and call your healthcare provider if you cannot drink enough water for any reason, such as not having access to water, or vomiting or diarrhea. Tell your healthcare provider if you get any of the following symptoms:
    • dizziness
    • fainting
    • weight loss
    • a change in the way your heart beats
    • feeling confused or weak

What should you avoid while taking JYNARQUE?

Do not drink grapefruit juice during treatment with JYNARQUE. This could cause you to have too much tolvaptan in your blood.

The most common side effects of JYNARQUE are:

  • thirst and increased fluid intake
  • making large amounts of urine, urinating often, and urinating at night

These are not all the possible side effects of JYNARQUE. Talk to your healthcare provider about any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

COVID-19 UPDATE

With the COVID-19 situation constantly developing, your health is our top priority. We hope that you and your families are staying safe and healthy during this unprecedented time.

During the current COVID-19 pandemic, the JYNARQUE® (tolvaptan) REMS Program requirements remain in effect, as the health of patients who use this product is our top priority. Ongoing blood monitoring required by the REMS Program is extremely important due to the potential risk of serious liver injury from treatment with JYNARQUE. For these lab requirements during COVID-19 pandemic, we are able to temporarily offer our Mobile Phlebotomy Collection Service at no-cost for all patients taking JYNARQUE who prefer to have the REMS required blood work collected at home.

In helping patients who have lost a job or health insurance coverage due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to get through these challenging times, we have extended our Patient Support Program to provide ‘no-cost’ access for patients in the U.S. who are taking JYNARQUE. Please call Otsuka Patient Support at 1-855-242-7787 for more information on both programs.
