See the detailed Instructions for Use that comes with Kesimpta for information about how to prepare and inject a dose of Kesimpta and how to properly throw away (dispose of) used pens or prefilled syringes.
Use Kesimpta exactly as your healthcare provider tells you to use it.
Kesimpta is given as an injection under your skin (subcutaneous injection), in your thigh or stomach-area (abdomen) by you or a caregiver. A caregiver may also give you an injection in your upper outer arm.
Your healthcare provider will show you how to prepare and inject Kesimpta the right way before you use it for the first time.
Do not inject into areas where the skin is tender, bruised, red, scaly or hard. Avoid areas with moles, scars or stretch marks.
The initial dosing is 20 mg of Kesimpta given by subcutaneous injection at Weeks 0, 1, and 2. There is no injection at Week 3. Starting at Week 4 and then every month, the recommended dose is 20 mg of Kesimpta administered by subcutaneous injection.
If you miss an injection at Week 0, 1, or 2, talk to your healthcare provider. If you miss a monthly injection, give it as soon as possible without waiting until the next scheduled dose. After that, use your injections a month apart.
