Your doctor can help you create personalized goals for your treatment, and can help you decide whether SILIQ may be a good option for you. SILIQ is not for everyone and, due to the risk of suicidal ideation and behavior, is only available through a special program called a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program.
