5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity: Hypersensitivity reactions including angioedema and urticaria, have occurred after administration of EBGLYSS. Discontinue EBGLYSS in the event of a serious hypersensitivity reaction. ( 5.1 ) Conjunctivitis and Keratitis: Report new onset or worsening eye symptoms to a healthcare provider. ( 5.2 ) Parasitic (Helminth) Infections: Treat patients with pre-existing helminth infections before initiating EBGLYSS. If patients become infected while receiving EBGLYSS and do not respond to anti-helminth treatment, discontinue treatment with EBGLYSS until the infection resolves. ( 5.3 ) Vaccinations: Avoid use of live vaccines during treatment with EBGLYSS. ( 5.4 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema and urticaria, have been reported with use of EBGLYSS. If a serious hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue EBGLYSS and institute appropriate therapy. 5.2 Conjunctivitis and Keratitis Conjunctivitis and keratitis adverse reactions have been reported in clinical trials. Conjunctivitis and keratitis occurred more frequently in atopic dermatitis subjects who received EBGLYSS compared to those who received placebo. Conjunctivitis was the most frequently reported eye disorder. Most subjects with conjunctivitis or keratitis recovered during the treatment period [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Advise patients to report new onset or worsening eye symptoms to their healthcare provider. 5.3 Parasitic (Helminth) Infections Patients with known helminth infections were excluded from participation in clinical studies. It is unknown if EBGLYSS will influence the immune response against helminth infections by inhibiting IL-13 signaling. Treat patients with pre-existing helminth infections before initiating treatment with EBGLYSS. If patients become infected while receiving EBGLYSS and do not respond to antihelminth treatment, discontinue treatment with EBGLYSS until the infection resolves. 5.4 Vaccinations EBGLYSS may alter a patient’s immunity and increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to therapy with EBGLYSS, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines. Avoid use of live vaccines immediately prior to or during treatment with EBGLYSS. No data are available on the response to live vaccines.
