( 2.4 ) See Full Prescribing Information for important preparation and administration instructions. ( 2.2 , 2.4 ) 2.1 Dosing Information EVRYSDI is administered orally once daily with or without food at approximately the same time each day. The recommended dosage is determined by age and body weight (see Table 1 ). EVRYSDI tablets are available for patients prescribed the 5 mg dose. Table 1 Adult and Pediatric Dosing Regimen by Age and Body Weight Age and Body Weight Recommended Daily Dosage Dosage Form Less than 2 months of age 0.15 mg/kg EVRYSDI for Oral Solution 2 months to less than 2 years of age 0.2 mg/kg 2 years of age and older weighing less than 20 kg 0.25 mg/kg 2 years of age and older weighing 20 kg or more 5 mg EVRYSDI for Oral Solution or EVRYSDI Tablet 2.2 Important Administration Instructions It is recommended that a healthcare provider discuss with the patient or caregiver how to prepare the prescribed daily dose prior to administration of the first dose [see Instructions for Use for EVRYSDI for Oral Solution and EVRYSDI Tablets and Patient Information ]. EVRYSDI for Oral Solution In infants who are breastfed, EVRYSDI for oral solution can be administered before or after breastfeeding. EVRYSDI cannot be mixed with formula or milk. Instruct patients or caregivers to administer the dose using the reusable oral syringe provided. EVRYSDI for oral solution must be taken immediately after it is drawn up into the oral syringe. If EVRYSDI is not taken within 5 minutes, EVRYSDI should be discarded from the oral syringe, and a new dose should be prepared. Instruct patients to drink water after taking EVRYSDI for oral solution to ensure the drug has been completely swallowed. EVRYSDI for oral solution can be administered via a nasogastric or gastrostomy tube. The tube should be flushed with water after delivering EVRYSDI for oral solution [see Instructions for Use ]. EVRYSDI Tablets Swallow EVRYSDI tablets whole with water. Do not chew, cut, or crush the tablets. Alternatively, the EVRYSDI tablet can also be dispersed in one teaspoon (5 mL) of room temperature non-chlorinated drinking water (e.g., filtered water). EVRYSDI tablets must not be dispersed in any liquid other than non-chlorinated drinking water. Do not expose the prepared dispersion to sunlight. Swirl the small cup gently for up to 3 minutes until fully mixed (though some particles will remain). Administer the dispersed tablet immediately. To ensure no particles are left in the small cup, refill it with at least one tablespoon (15 mL) of non-chlorinated drinking water, swirl, and administer immediately again. EVRYSDI must be taken immediately after it is dispersed in non-chlorinated drinking water. Discard the prepared dispersion if it is not used within 10 minutes of adding non-chlorinated drinking water. The dispersed EVRYSDI tablet can be administered via a nasogastric or gastrostomy tube that is 8 French or higher. Flush the tube with the non-chlorinated drinking water [at least one tablespoon (15 mL)] used to rinse the dispersion cup [see Instructions for Use ]. 2.3 Missed Dose If a dose of EVRYSDI is missed, EVRYSDI should be administered as soon as possible if still within 6 hours of the missed dose, and the usual dosing schedule can be resumed on the next day. Otherwise, the missed dose should be skipped, and the next dose should be taken at the regularly scheduled time on the next day. If a dose is not fully swallowed or vomiting occurs after taking a dose of EVRYSDI, another dose should not be administered to make up for the lost dose. The patient should wait until the next day to take the next dose at the regularly scheduled time. 2.4 Preparation of Powder for Oral Solution by Healthcare Provider EVRYSDI powder must be constituted to the oral solution by a pharmacist or other healthcare provider prior to dispensing to the patient.

Interaction Notes
- • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Avoid coadministration with drugs that are substrates of multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) transporters.
- • ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effect of EVRYSDI on Substrates of Multidrug and Toxin Extrusion (MATE) Protein Transporters Based on in vitro data, EVRYSDI may increase plasma concentrations of drugs eliminated via MATE1 or MATE2-K [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] , such as metformin.
- • Avoid coadministration of EVRYSDI with MATE substrates.
- • If coadministration cannot be avoided, monitor for drug-related toxicities and consider dosage reduction of the coadministered drug (based on the labeling of that drug) if needed.
