Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

1. What is Firazyr and what is it used for

Firazyr contains the active substance icatibant.

Firazyr is used to treat the symptoms of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults, adolescents and children aged 2 years and above.

In HAE, the levels of a substance in the blood called bradykinin increase, leading to symptoms such as swelling, pain, nausea and diarrhoea.

Firazyr blocks the action of bradykinin and therefore slows down the progression of the symptoms of an HAE attack.

2. What you need to know before you use Firazyr

Do not use Firazyr

  • If you are allergic to icatibant or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor before starting treatment with Firazyr:

  • If you have coronary heart disease (reduced blood flow to the heart).
  • If you have recently had a stroke.

The side effects related to Firazyr are similar to the symptoms of your own illness.

Consult your doctor immediately if you notice that the symptoms of the attack worsen after you have been given Firazyr.

Also:

  • You or your carer must learn the technique of administering subcutaneous injections (under the skin) before you self-administer or your carer administers Firazyr to you.
  • Immediately after self-administering Firazyr or after your carer has administered it to you while you are experiencing a laryngeal attack (obstruction of the upper airway), you should seek medical attention at a medical institution.
  • If your symptoms do not resolve after a self-administered injection of Firazyr or after an injection administered by your carer, you should consult your doctor about the administration of additional injections of Firazyr. In adult patients, up to 2 additional injections can be administered within 24 hours.

Children and adolescents

Firazyr is not recommended for use in children below 2 years of age or weighing less than 12 kg because it has not been studied in these patients.

Other medicines and Firazyr

Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.

No interactions of Firazyr with other medicines are known. If you are taking a medicine that is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (e.g. captopril, enalapril, ramipril, quinapril, lisinopril) to lower your blood pressure or for any other reason, inform your doctor before using Firazyr.

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 taking this medicine.

If you are breast-feeding, you should not breast-feed your child for 12 hours after the last administration of Firazyr.

Driving and using machines

Do not drive or use machines if you feel tired or dizzy as a result of the HAE attack or after using Firazyr.

Firazyr contains a small amount of sodium

This medicine contains less than 23 milligrams (1 mmol) of sodium per syringe, and is therefore essentially ‘sodium-free’.

Medicine questions

Started taking the medicine and have questions?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

3. How to use Firazyr

Follow the instructions for administration of this medicine exactly as told by your doctor. If you are not sure, ask your doctor again.

If you have never been administered Firazyr before, the first dose must always be injected by medical or nursing staff. Your doctor will discharge you when they consider it safe for you to go home. After discussing with your doctor or nurse and learning the technique for subcutaneous injections (under the skin), you or your carer can administer Firazyr to you if you have an HAE attack. It is important to inject Firazyr subcutaneously (under the skin) as soon as you notice an angioedema attack. The healthcare staff will teach you and your carer how to inject Firazyr safely, following the instructions in the leaflet.

When and how often should you use Firazyr?

Your doctor has determined the exact dose of Firazyr and will tell you how often to use it.

Adults

  • The recommended dose of Firazyr is one injection (3 ml, 30 mg) administered subcutaneously (under the skin) as soon as you notice the angioedema attack (e.g. with increased skin swelling, especially on the face and neck, or increased abdominal pain).
  • If you do not notice an improvement in symptoms after 6 hours, you should seek medical advice about the administration of additional injections of Firazyr. In adults, up to 2 additional injections can be administered within 24 hours.
  • You should not receive more than 3 injections in a 24-hour period and if you need more than 8 injections in a month, you should seek medical advice.

Children and adolescents from 2 to 17 years

  • The recommended dose of Firazyr is an injection of 1 ml up to a maximum of 3 ml based on body weight, administered subcutaneously (under the skin) as soon as symptoms of an angioedema attack appear (e.g. increased skin swelling, especially on the face and neck, or increased abdominal pain).
  • Refer to the section on instructions for use to see the dose you should inject.
  • If you are unsure about the dose to inject, consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.
  • If your symptoms worsen or do not improve, you should seek medical advice immediately.

How should Firazyr be administered?

Firazyr is administered by subcutaneous injection (under the skin). Each syringe should only be used once.

Firazyr is injected with a short needle into the fatty tissue under the skin of the abdomen (tummy).

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