1. What is NovoEight and what is it used for

NovoEight contains the active substance turoctocog alfa, human coagulation factor VIII. Factor VIII is a protein that is naturally found in the blood and helps it to clot.

NovoEight is used to treat and prevent bleeding episodes in patients with haemophilia A (congenital factor VIII deficiency) and can be used in all age groups.

In patients with haemophilia A, factor VIII is missing or does not work properly. NovoEight replaces the missing or non-functioning factor VIII and helps the blood to form clots at the site of bleeding.

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you use NovoEight

Do not use NovoEight:

  • if you are allergic to the active substance or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
  • if you are allergic to hamster proteins.

Do not use NovoEight in any of the above cases. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor before using this medicine.

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor before using NovoEight.

There is a small chance that an anaphylactic reaction (a sudden and severe allergic reaction) to NovoEight may occur. The first signs of an allergic reaction are rash, hives, itching, swelling of the lips and tongue, difficulty breathing, wheezing, chest tightness, feeling unwell and dizziness.

If any of these symptoms occur, stop the injection immediately and contact your doctor.

Talk to your doctor if you think that bleeding is not being controlled with the dose you are given, as there may be different reasons for this. Some people using this medicine may develop antibodies against factor VIII (also known as factor VIII inhibitors). Factor VIII inhibitors reduce the effectiveness of NovoEight in preventing or controlling bleeding. If this happens, you may need a higher dose of NovoEight or another medicine to control bleeding. Do not increase the total dose of NovoEight to control bleeding without talking to your doctor. You should tell your doctor if you have been previously treated with factor VIII medicines, especially if you have developed inhibitors, as the risk of this happening again is higher.

The formation of inhibitors (antibodies) is a known complication that can occur during treatment with all factor VIII medicines. These inhibitors, especially in large quantities, prevent the treatment from working properly, so you and your child will be carefully monitored for the development of such inhibitors. If you or your child's bleeding is not being controlled with NovoEight, contact your doctor immediately.

Other medicines and NovoEight

Tell your doctor if you are using, have recently used or might use any other medicines.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before using this medicine.

Driving and using machines

NovoEight has no influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

NovoEight contains sodium

This medicine contains 30.5 mg of sodium (the main component of cooking/table salt) per reconstituted vial. This is equivalent to 1.5% of the maximum recommended daily intake of sodium for an adult.

If you are on a controlled sodium diet, talk to your doctor.

3. How to use NovoEight

Treatment with NovoEight should be started by a doctor who has experience in the treatment of patients with haemophilia A. Follow the instructions for administration of this medicine exactly as told by your doctor. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor again.

Your doctor will calculate the dose for you based on your weight and what the medicine is being used for.

Prevention of bleeding

The usual dose of NovoEight is 20 to 50 international units (IU) per kg body weight. The injection is given every 2 or 3 days. In some cases, especially in younger patients, more frequent injections or higher doses may be needed.

Treatment of bleeding

The dose of NovoEight is calculated based on body weight and the desired factor VIII levels. The desired level of factor VIII depends on the severity and location of the bleeding.

Use in children and adolescents

NovoEight can be used in children of all ages. In children (under 12 years) higher doses or more frequent injections may be needed. Adolescents (over 12 years) can use the same dose as adults.

How NovoEight is given

NovoEight must be injected into a vein. See “Instructions for use of NovoEight” for more information.

If you use more NovoEight than you should

If you use more NovoEight than you should, contact your doctor or go to a hospital immediately.

If you forget to use NovoEight

If you miss a dose and do not know how to make up for it, contact your doctor.

If you stop using NovoEight

If you stop using NovoEight, you will no longer be protected against bleeding or an existing bleed may not stop. Do not stop using NovoEight without talking to your doctor first.

If you have any other questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor.

Medicine questions

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. The following side effects can occur with this medicine.

If (rarely) severe and sudden allergic reactions (anaphylactic reactions) occur, the injection must be stopped immediately. If you experience any of the following symptoms, contact your doctor immediately:

  • difficulty breathing, breathlessness or wheezing
  • chest tightness
  • swelling of the lips and tongue
  • rash, hives, itching or generalised itching
  • feeling of dizziness or loss of consciousness
  • low blood pressure (pale and cold skin, palpitations).

Severe symptoms, including difficulty swallowing or breathing and redness and swelling of the face or hands, require urgent treatment immediately.

If you experience a severe allergic reaction, your doctor may change your medicine.

In previously untreated children with factor VIII medicines, inhibitor antibodies (see section 2) may be formed very commonly (more than 1 in 10 patients); however, in patients who have received previous treatment with factor VIII (more than 150 days of treatment), the risk is uncommon (less than 1 in 100 patients). If this happens to you or your child, the treatment may stop working properly and you or your child may experience persistent bleeding. If this happens, contact your doctor immediately.

Common side effects (may affect up to 1 in 10 people)

  • blood tests showing changes in liver function
  • reactions (redness and itching) at the injection site.

Common side effects (may affect up to 1 in 10 people) in previously untreated patients with factor VIII medicines

  • redness of the skin
  • vein inflammation
  • bleeding into joints
  • bleeding into muscle tissue
  • cough
  • redness around the injection site
  • vomiting.

Uncommon side effects (may affect up to 1 in 100 people)

Injection of NovoEight through needleless connectors for intravenous (IV) catheters

Precaution:the pre-filled syringe is made of glass and is designed to be compatible with standard luer-lock connections. Some needleless connectors with an internal spike are incompatible with the pre-filled syringe. This incompatibility can prevent administration of the medication and/or damage the needleless connector.

Injection of the solution through a central venous access device (CVAD) such as a central venous catheter or a subcutaneous port:

  • Use a clean and germ-free (aseptic) technique. Follow the instructions for the proper use of your connector and CVAD with the advice of your doctor or nurse.
  • Injection into a CVAD may require using a sterile 10 ml plastic syringe to withdraw the reconstituted solution. This should be done immediately after step J.
  • If it is necessary to flush the CVAD line before or after the injection of NovoEight, use a sodium chloride 9 mg/ml solution for injection.

Disposal
