Before taking this medicine

liver or kidney disease.
Although Nubeqa is not for use by women, this medicine can harm an unborn baby or cause a miscarriage if a woman is exposed to it during pregnancy.
Use effective birth control if your sex partner is able to get pregnant. Keep using birth control for at least 1 week after your last dose. Tell your doctor right away if a pregnancy occurs while you are using Nubeqa.
This medicine may affect fertility (your ability to have children). However, it is important to use birth control to prevent pregnancy because darolutamide can harm an unborn baby.
