Important Safety Information
What is the most important information I should know about SILIQ?
Suicidal thoughts and behavior: Some patients taking SILIQ have had suicidal thoughts or ended their own lives. This risk is higher if you have a history of suicidal thoughts or depression. It is not known if SILIQ causes these thoughts and actions. Get medical help right away or call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988, if you or a family member notices that you have any of the following symptoms:
- new or worsening depression, anxiety, or mood problems
- thoughts of suicide, dying, or hurting yourself
- attempt to commit suicide, or acting on dangerous impulses
- other unusual changes in your behavior or mood
Because of your risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior during your treatment with SILIQ, SILIQ is available only through a restricted distribution program called the SILIQ Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS). SILIQ can only be prescribed by a healthcare provider certified with the program. Your healthcare provider will give you a SILIQ patient/wallet card about symptoms that need medical attention right away. Carry the card with you during treatment with SILIQ and show it to all of your healthcare providers. SILIQ is only available through pharmacies that participate in the SILIQ REMS. Your healthcare provider can give you information about how to find a participating pharmacy. For more information, go to www.SILIQREMS.com or call 1-855-511-6135.
